Did I daydream this, or was there a website for writers with like. A ridiculous quantity of descriptive aid. Like I remember clicking on " inside a cinema " or something like that. Then, BAM. Here's a list of smell and sounds. I can't remember it for the life of me, but if someone else can, help a bitch out <3
This is going to save me so much trouble in the future.
My mind wandered and I got curious... please reblog if you want to so it can get a bit further <3
You know what meme I really love? Apollo's dodgeball. It's such a cool reference to antiquity, while also being humourous and apt!
"This person is like Cassandra" : Literary reference, if the person doesn't get it it's not funny

Like idk its so cool that ancient concepts, like the Greek pantheon, are still so "alive" today! Not to be a nerd, but: You know how gods had epithets? Like Pallas Athena, rose-fingered dawn, ect. We made a new one!! Get Dodgeballed Apollo.

BTW for anyone too lazy to do the math a wage of $125 a day works out to about $15/hour for an 8-hour workday so..... someone in 1923 definitely had a vision of the future
You can play it here, for free, in browser, on most mobile devices, and gameboy hardware via ROMs! With new color palettes, reworked graphics, QoL improvements, and music for each zone, I hope the Redux update is one both new and returning players can enjoy!
💚 Stay safe and be at peace 💚
One wild thing about Universal cutting up all those trees is I first heard about tree law like, maybe a month ago. One of my mutuals reblogged that one comic and my reaction was sort of mildly amused, but also a little confused as to why tree law seemed to be so popular of all things
It really feels like some great karmic entity leaned down and said hey here’s the set up to a joke that won’t get a punchline for a little while. But when it does you’re gonna love it
my tumblr dashboard hasn't gotten the updated UI yet so hearing more and more people I follow gradually post about the nightmare they're currently living just feels like I'm in the first fifteen minutes of a horror series where Troubling News Stories are starting to crop up on the radio and on blurry background TV sets
use, and i cannot stress this enough, thriftbooks
if thriftbooks doesn’t have what you’re looking for, especially if you’re looking for it used/cheap, alternatives include betterworldbooks and discoverbooks.
Other tips for cheaper books is checking amazon and scrolling down to the “buy used” or “other sellers” section and then checking to see if those sellers have storerfonts off of amazon.
There is also a good chance that you might have a local, indie book store that likely also has a used book section! Indiebound might help you find those book stores!
Also, check out your local library, sometimes, they have a for sale section or might have certain times of the year where they do massive used book (dvd, cd, etc) sales to fundraise!
(It’s also worth checking directly from an author’s or publisher’s page and seeing if they have other places they sell their books. I know this is about cheaper/used books, since some of y’all aren’t built for piracy or the library, but also if you want to dodge supporting amazon AND want to more directly support artists you support, there’s a good chance they might have alternate ways to buy the books!)
I use thriftbooks a lot, it's so good!
as someone who works in an independent bookstore, alibris is the best for supporting yr local bookstore! abebooks is now owned by amazon. thriftbooks is great also just doesn’t usually support independent stores.
Charles Dickens only wishes he could come up with a villain as audacious and selfish to use the term “youth apprenticeship.”
There are political newspaper comics that aren't this succinct
Lin-Manuel Miranda is not untalented but he shouldn't be making billion dollar disney movies or whatever. This guy should be in a garage making deeply earnest but unpolished rap opera concept albums and posting them online for a niche fanbase of no more than 100,000 too-online theatre nerds. Hiring him to make forgettable paint-by-numbers radio friendly disney princess pop is trying to raise devil's pupfish in captivity. You have to stop giving him money and let him go make cringe in his natural habitat or you're never going to get anything good.
No one has ever gone into Revolutionary Girl Utena with an accurate impression of what it’s going to be, because it is impossible to conceptualize it until you have experienced it. You heard that people TURN INTO CARS - but are you prepared for some SEXUAL ABUSE? You heard about the CSA, well get ready for the KANGAROO FIGHT. You heard about both those things? Well you are NONETHELESS STILL unprepared for NANAMI, LIKE, OVERALL.
All you need to know about The Dolls of New Albion is that a severely unchecked neurodivergent woman simps so hard for a dude she met one (1) time that she starts a multilayered, altering-life-as-we-know-it, chain of events that eventually leads to a entire chunk of a city being rocketed into space in order to escape a society that doesn’t want you to make yourself into a cyborg/genetically engineered discord kitten. Also theater kids with a god complex are there
