From a project I was working on before going in another direction, but still wanted to post this. Inspired by this photo of mourning doves nesting in the fossil of a triceratops, and how it tells us that the world can end, just not forever.

if the vibes are off, close your document. stare at the wall. think about your protagonist’s childhood trauma. return stronger.

PSA!!!

THIS IS A PEACOCK. A MALE PEAFOWL.

THIS IS A PEAHEN. A FEMALE PEAFOWL.

THE DEFAULT NAME OF THIS SPECIES OF BIRD IS NOT PEACOCK. IT IS PEAFOWL. THIS BIRD IS CALLED A PEAFOWL. IF YOU CALL A FEMALE PEAFOWL A PEACOCK, THAT IS INCORRECT. IT IS A PEAHEN. A FEMALE PEAFOWL.

THIS IS CALLED AN INDIAN PEAFOWL

and NO. The white peafowls AREN'T the females, that's an Indian peafowl with Leucism. This PEAFOWL can be either a PEACOCK or PEAHEN.

YES??? OKAY???

PEACOCK IS A SEX SPECIFIC TERM. PEAFOWL IS THE NAME OF THE BIRD.

I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL IT A FUCKING PEAFOWL.

Sopping wet creature successfully protected her children from a sudden thunderstorm. I wasn't home, or I would have brought them in, but she must have not been close enough to the coop to get in before the downpour started. Rather than risk her kids getting wet and chilling, she chose to stay put over them and get wet, herself.

I know it's hormones, and I know it's instinct, and I know it's been done billions and billions of times by billions and billions of birds because evolution has made them that way.

But really, what is love except the experience of hormones/brain chemicals and the instinct to protect those you care for, even when it means you are inconvenienced? What is love, if not the universe spending millions of years crafting your very genes into patterns that tell you to lend your wings to covering those in need to protect them?

or maybe it's just how momentarily excited you get to take a little bite out of the critters bouncing around in front of you, and how you don't, because they're your children.

Do you think I meant to write "stoopid" google docs. Do you think I meant to describe a character as "stoopid." Do you think that is what I meant to do

Are you telling me we unlock existential dread by staring at a literal Yellow Wallpaper?!

[glitchedgirly]

um guys, I think we need to stop waiting for ‘the right time’ and just start doing the things we want whenever because the right time’s never gonna come, and if we keep waiting it’s just gonna turn into an endless cycle

The problem with AO3 is that every online store's search function is bullshit by comparison

with love. you have to fact check shit. yes you. you still have to fact check shit. a lot of people are great at fact checking stuff they don’t want to be true, but somehow are still absolute ass at fact checking stuff that’s rhetorically convenient to them. even people my age, who I KNOW grew up doing internet/bibliography literacy workshops, and being warned not to believe anything that isn’t reliably sourced, people who DO harp on fact checking conservative output or whatever, are still kneejerk sharing unsourced shit that is partially or wholly untrue or misleading, because it suits whatever narrative they’re pursuing in that moment, without even a “take this with a grain of salt”. fact check!!!!!! look at the sources!!!!! yes it’s a drag!!! do it!!!!!
