[“When I used to teach creative writing, I would tell the students to make their characters want something right away—even if it’s only a glass of water. Characters paralyzed by the meaningless of modern life still have to drink water from time to time. One of my students wrote a story about a nun who got a piece of dental floss stuck between her lower left molars, and who couldn’t get it out all day long. I thought that was wonderful. The story dealt with issues a lot more important than dental floss, but what kept readers going was anxiety about when the dental floss would finally be removed. Nobody could read that story without fishing around in his mouth with a finger. Now, there’s an admirable practical joke for you. When you exclude plot, when you exclude anyone’s wanting anything, you exclude the reader, which is a mean-spirited thing to do.”]

Kpop Demon Hunters as Textposts because I'm bored part 2

So we know that Zoey is canonically a skater, but how about the other girls? Do they skate? Kind of.

I feel like Mira would be really into rollerblading as a form of balance. She likes making smooth movements, and rollerblades are a good way to do that. She'll try to visit a rink every week or so to keep up.

Rumi, sweet "no bad publicity!" Rumi, loves mountain trail riding on her bike. She'll disappear to the woods for a weekend and come back covered in scrapes and dirt. She likes riding with a go-pro on her head to capture the trails she rides.

Eventually, a single video from her rides is accidentally posted to the HUNTR/X official account. It's a video of a particularly perilous trail, and Rumi is singing loudly and frantically in the background.

"You watch out, you better not die. You better not crash, I'm telling you why. Cause you told your wives you're at work-"

As soon as the video goes up, the internet goes insane. What do you mean wives? Who is Rumi talking about? Is she gay? Are her wives Mira and Zoey??

The polytrix tag goes up in ratings immediately. Mira and Zoey actually disregard the publicity to yell at Rumi in the comments. She actually told them she was at a photoshoot, and they're pissed.

Later, one singular photo goes up. It's Rumi on her knees in the middle of the floor, trembling as Zoey shouts at her in a mix of English, Spanish, and Korean while brandishing a chancla. Mira is in the corner of the screen, looking a little scared.

The polytrix tag blows up once more.

I feel like tumblr should be bigger fans of The Blues Brothers. It's a movie that has everything we value as a community. Attention and respect to pioneering black musicians, open hostility to nazis, open defiance to police, Carrie Fisher with a rocket launcher and flamethrower, a soundtrack that goes hard as hell, John Belushi so blasted on cocaine that he continues to do somersaults despite having a broken ankle. It's got it all!

In case you're wondering what raising a kid in a polyamorous family looks like, our kid just has. Zero concept of monogamy. Like we've explained it to her many times but she just like. Forgets it's a thing and the assumed cultural norm. We're showing her Lord of the a Rings and she was very confused when Aragon rejected Eowyn.

"Wait, I thought they liked each other??"

"She likes him but he's already with Arwen."

"So?? He could just be with both??"

Anyway enjoy this meme I found about it

one of the most challenging skills i've had to learn as an adult is the art of figuring out whether i'm proportionally annoyed with someone or just tired and overstimulated and looking for reasons to be pissed off

My current not-approved-by-the-government opinion is that im not anyone's parent and i should not be responsible for random teenagers online. If I post smth thats 'meant for adults' and its labled as such then what happens from there is literally not my problem. If a teen- who is fully capable of turning on self moderation settings on their own btw- doesn't use a site's provided self moderation settings and they see boobs or dicks then like literally whatever, its neither the end of the world or a big deal. It shouldn't fall on me or a website or a tech company to do a parent's job, and also frankly i don't think a parent should be breathing down their 16 year old's neck on the off chance they do actually want to look at tits, but thats a discussion that americans will fucking throw a fit at so maybe we'll discuss that another day in better company.

"But what about young children!!" see thats! where parents should be involved- that is to say, why are you letting your young child on the internet in the first place, you fucking idiot.
