I feel like when I say ‘relatable’ what I really mean is ‘resonant.’ I don’t want characters who I feel are like me, I want characters who have emotions so strong I can feel them through the page.

I think this is important because a lot of us forget the power of stories to make us feel things about characters who are not like us, who have experienced things that we never will. The purpose of listening to someone else’s story should not necessarily be identification, but understanding.

to me the thing about deification is that something fundamental is lost in the process

people can’t be immortal. so in order to be immortal you can’t be a person anymore. you have to be distilled. stripped of everything. till you come out the other side as an abstract concept.

Received an email about remembrance day at work and for a moment I genuinely thought it said “please bring this message to the attention of all those who have died in the service of their country”

I can’t draw very well and hated that I couldn’t draw my DnD character, a tabaxi cleric named Merry Thing, but then I remembered I’m pretty good with a needle and thread so I made her

All made by hand, hand embroidered details, and I even crocheted the lace trim on her shift!

Wait this is such a good idea the fuck

social media needs to add multiple tiers of blocking someone

I should be able to differentiate between “you seem perfectly nice but I do not enjoy seeing your posts,” “you view the world through an ideological framework that I find flawed at best and repellent at worst,” and, of course, “I Am Killing You With My Mind”
