Dream Of A Sweet Symphony

You know when someone goes through your blog on a mass like-spree for a fandom? I love those like, 19 notifications in a row. it’s like “Ah, I see you’re well into a fixation. God bless.”

Huh. Anyway everyone should go and watch Mr. Robot

to add on to that last post: liking a fic only tells me that you’ve at least seen it. It doesn’t tell me how you feel about it, whether it impacted you, made you cry, made you smile, made you horny. Writers and artists don’t make art for it to end up in a vacuum, we make it to express emotions and have those reflected back at us to know we’re not alone in the universe. We make it to see and be seen.

Pls reblog my work I’ll get my cock out

there’s probably posts on here and twitter that can describe this better but corporations doing shit like this because they rather not give better pay, and terms and conditions to their artists, animators, writers, and crew overall is frankly embarrassing and disgusting

Ah, a classic

fuck it, I'm romanticizing underrated ao3 works now. 8,000 word fics with only 13 kudos, even after 5 months. multi-chaptered works with only 11 comments from the same 3 people and the author themself. incredibly specific works featuring OC's mingling with canon characters that only get 5 kudos. rare-pair fics. gift works that are literally ONLY for the receiver.

Does anyone have an update on where things are at with the writers strike? It's disappeared from my various feeds and algorithms.

The writers' strike is ongoing and the studios are still not returning to the negotiating table. Unfortunately a lot of the coverage has tapered off because we're on 50+ days of striking and it's not new anymore. The last strike in 2007 lasted 100 days, so don't be surprised if this strike lasts as long, or even longer.

The biggest recent news is that the Directors' Guild of America (DGA) voted to ratify their new agreement with the studios (article from June 23), and it appears likely that the actors' guild (SAG-AFTRA) will also take a deal instead of striking (article from June 24). Although this is disappointing news, it's completely expected. During previous strikes, the WGA held its own without other unions going on strike. Which is to say—don't be disheartened by the news that there won't be a triple strike. The WGA is strong enough!

Please keep vocally supporting the WGA online to keep the pressure on the studios & to keep WGA members motivated and encouraged! There are many ongoing donation drives, such as the Star Trek fan snack squad (Twitter account required to DM the organizer) and the Our Flag Means Death snack squad (opens the PayPal fundraising page—no Twitter required). There's a longer list of ongoing donation drives here.

The Entertainment Community Fund is also always accepting donations to support entertainment workers affected by the strike. Please boost and encourage your friends to keep supporting the strike. Hashtag #IStandWithTheWGA #DoTheWriteThing to boost the cause!

Also all existing production in LA is officially shut down now; they've reached the end of finished scripts to film

 someday we will foresee obstacles (through the blizzard)

I went back to read this after two and a half years, and it’s just as magnificent now as it was then. This story is so immersive, so well-written, and I’m reblogging for anyone who hasn’t had the pleasure of reading this yet. This was written for me, and it’ll always be one of my favorites for that reason, but mostly because it’s so exceptionally well done. Go read if you haven’t, you’re missing out.

I hope they find the idiot rich ppl I hope a teenager doesn't have to die a horrible nightmare death and then I also hope they immediately get slapped with a $500,000 bill to repay the taxpayer cost of rescuing them from their idiocracy and then also another $1billion dollars inconvenience fee of making us all hear about this for 3 days straight.

@prev no there is not and I'd appreciate it if u left this kind of shit off my post. The internet is eroding people's empathy to a dangerous extent and this kind of gleeful bullshit just continues that pattern. Slowly suffocating in a coffin at the bottom of the ocean is a horrible way to die, no matter who you are. You shouldn't be celebrating like it's something funny or fun.

I think adults need summer vacation. Like let's just close down all our jobs for three months and play outside. Please. I'm so tired.

your recovery is all your own. it’s not for others. it’s for you.
