This is really cool

(Content warning for nudity, sorta – like the people are made of silver or of sand or whatever and they’re not super distinct but they’re naked)

WATCH THIS. Easily the best video I’ve seen in years. It’s not just the effects, but also the exuberance and the weird tension between the canny and uncanny. I LOVE IT. 

(Track is Light It Up by Major Lazer featuring Nyla and Fuse ODG)

This is stunning in so many ways! I can literally feel the textures with my eyes

I was pleasantly surprised with this video and could only think, “More eyes need this… More ears need this… Must share this…”

Helping girls learn all over the world.

Globally, more than 62 million adolescent girls don’t have access to education. In emerging countries like Ghana, girls are expected to do chores while their brothers go to school. To help change this, the Peace Corps, TECHAiDE, a local Ghanaian social enterprise, and IBM’s Corporate Service Corps partnered under the Let Girls Learn initiative to give Ghanaian girls greater access to schooling. Working together, they created a business plan, distribution channels and added critical content to educate and empower girls via TECHAiDE’s wi-fi-enabled server named ASANKA, which means “community bowl” in Ghanaian. The server brings internet access & educational content to rural parts of Ghana––and new information to girls who can’t wait to learn.

Flint still doesn’t have clean water. This is very important.

Reminder there is no safe level of lead, no matter what the studies and findings may say.

Zero is the only acceptable amount.

OCTOBER 25, 2017 - Flint has not had clean water for 1,280 days. We are still dealing with the effects of the water crisis. Children are still being affected by lead poisoning. I have to be very careful about where I fill my water bottle at school (I’m a student at one of the four colleges in the city). PLEASE HELP US.

What to Do When You Don't Know What to do With Your Story

When nothing else seems to work, but you need to push on with your writing, what do you do? Here are some things to try…

- Use a prompt. My favorite generator is this dialogue generator because the prompts are inspiring but vague enough to fit most stories! The site has a bunch of other resources and generators as well! It’s a great resource. You could also search my prompt and inspiration tags, as I try to make them applicable to most stories, able to inspire a new story, or flexible so that you can work with them no matter what and get the motivation you need to write something great! - Sketch a scene, setting, or characters. - Create a playlist. For a character, a relationship, a scene, or the novel itself! - Write ‘fanfiction’ or AUs for your own novel.

- Take a break and work on something new. - Create a storyboard. With a tackboard on your wall or on Pinterest, create an inspiration board for your novel, the characters, a relationship, a setting, or a scene!

- Skip around in the story and piece everything together later.
