The struggle is real
One thing I’ve learned about writing is ”give everything a face”. It’s no good to write passively that the nobility fled the city or that the toxic marshes were poisoning the animals beyond any ability to function. Make a protagonist see how a desperate woman in torn silks climbs onto a carriage and speeds off, or a two-headed deer wanders right into the camp and into the fire. Don’t just have an ambiguous flock of all-controlling oligarchy, name one or two representatives of it, and illustrate just how vile and greedy they are as people.
it’s bad to have characters who serve no purpose in the story, but giving something a face is a perfectly valid purpose.
Articles I can use against truscum
There is a petition imploring the Australian government to take in LGBTQIA+ refugees from the USA. Given the rapidly worsening political situation over there, I want to at least give this a go. I don’t have any illusions that it will get through to the people that need to see it but I want to try anyway.
The petition closes in 8 days; if you aren’t Australian, please do me a solid and pass this around. Reblog this if you can. Thank you.

Today's artist is Peruvian legend Eva Ayllón. She's one of the most recognizable singers of peruvian creole music (música criolla), a very interesting genre that encapsulates the rich and varied culture of the country, mixing influences from Andean music (música andina), African music and European dances (like waltz and mazurka).
Eva Ayllón's musical career starts as a solist in the 1970s; she later joined the group "Los Kipus" and reached national recognition. (P.S. some of her best recordings are listed in Los Kipus' profile if you're using Spotify!)
Here's my favourite song from one of their best album:
Also called "la Reina del Landó", Eva is regarded as the best representative of afro-peruvian music. Landó is a dance originated from Angola, in Africa, where it was used to accompany marriage cerimonies. It was brought to Perú by the Spanish slave trade in the 16th century. There's also samba landó, which is very similar, from what I gather, though some people consider it to be the same as landó.
You can also find several other afroperuvian dances in her discography, like "Inga" for example.
Here's my favourite recording of "Taita Guaranguito", a landó song:
