piracy isnt theft but i wish it was. i wish i could download a disney movie and then they dont have it anymore
I love how the message of Frankenstein isn’t “don’t play god and commit hubristic acts of mad science” but instead “when you commit a hubristic act of mad science you are responsible for parenting whatever comes out of it”
its so much and its dishonest work
being critical of academia because it’s heavily hierarchical and systemically racist, and saying that individuals within academia are in no way more qualified to discuss academic subjects than non-academics are two completely different things. sjcjdjahe i swear some people think that to get a history degree you just read like. commercial biographies and watch hamilton. idk how to tell you all this but tiktok doesn’t have a peer review process

This might be unpopular but I’m not going to use simpler vocabulary in my writing if it’s out of character for the narrator. If my POV character is a botanist, he’s going to call a plant by its name. If you don’t know what it is you can either Google it or move on just knowing it’s a plant of some sort.
I don’t like this trend of readers being angry that not everything is 100% understandable for them. I want my characters to be believable as people and sometimes people use words people outside of their field will not understand. That’s not a bad thing.
You don’t have to understand every word to get the gist of what’s happening. I’m not going to slow down an action scene to describe every weapon because someone might not know them by name. They can just assume it’s a weapon because that makes sense in the context of the scene.
really into dracula daily *and* into tumblr being into dracula daily. it's marvelous. it's nothing. it's everything. it's a complete novelty. it's a return to a centuries old form of communally reading novels. no one could've seen this coming, and also the entirety of human civilization has been working towards exactly this. can't wait to be re-reading illiad with u guys in 2023.
like genuinely is there any worse feeling than realizing you’ve hurt someone’s feelings
