i think all humans are capable of creating and do create even when they don’t realize they are, in various frequencies, forms, and across different mediums or aspects of life, but i truly believe there are some people who were made to create first and foremost and everything else comes second. i don’t know what the percentage is and i don’t know how many were taught to put it on the back burner because “that’s not how life or society works”, but it’s always sad to see the general public, especially those in charge, unwilling to give support to their creatives and help them flourish. it’d be a boon for everyone in the end, we all partake in art to be entertained or soothed or healed :(

「 … favorite book … 」 ─ hard pick, but I'm going to say Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas by Jules Verne. Captain Nemo stand here.

「 … favorite music … 」 ─ l'm mister eclectic, I'm into alternative rock, sea shanties, movie soundtracks and musicals if you look at my vinyl collection, but my playlist goes from the The Pokemon Theme to The Show Must Go On, via Sacré Bordel (French Rap), so really it barely scratches the surface.

「 … favorite movies … 」 ─ another hard pick, but Amadeus would be my classic movie pick, The Lord of the Rings my trilogy pick, The Last Crusade my if I was stuck on an island movie, Beauty & The Beast the classic Disney movies I would save, but Mulan and Atlantis The Lost Empire are my favourite. My top three movies last year are Nimona, Asteroid City and Past Lives. I can go on...

「 … inspiration … 」 ─ art, people watching and stories, old rpg characters and songs.

「 … story behind url … 」 ─ oof it is a hard one, if I remember correctly, when I moved blog, I wanted something a little more poetic for Greaves. I think both words sounded pretty, I liked the definition and their union made me think of a katana with wave patterns or the light in Greaves eyes... And that is it.

「 … fun fact about me … 」 ─ I have a Mickey Mouse watch from my last trip to Disneyland Paris which I think was in 2009 or 2010 and I love it so much, I always wear it when I go out. I picked it because it looked like the Robert Langdon's Mickey Mouse watch in Angels & Demons movie.

I hope my trans followers are having a good day/night.

I feel terrible for my friends in the US who are now at risk because of the abortion thing, but I really don't want to put any more of it on people's dash at the moment, as I feel most people are posting about it and I don't want to add to it, but if you haven't heard of it I urge you to look into it... but just so it is known where I stand, I think it's an awful development that I have feared for you for a long time now and fought against in the ways that I can, and I am very sorry. Also currently grieving the attack in Oslo and the lack of support for LGBTQA+ people here in Scandinavia and elsewhere, my heart goes out to all of you.

[hopepetal]

thank you all for the lovely asks you really made my night, I'm so happy to have been able to talk about my characters!

[pattysplaceofplaces]

so I feel that this is an odd thing to thank someone for, but I really appreciate the disclaimers/trigger warnings you put before doing the yandere fics.

I'm a casual yandere trope enjoyer, and I have my limits with it because it can be pretty uncomfortable. Sometimes I feel torned, because I know that people like that actually do exist, and can cause actual harm. I feel like yandere content should always have warnings about not romanticizing this behavior, because some might not know any better(is that putting it bluntly? oof idk how else to word it, sorry).

Like it can be enjoyed as a trope within fiction, but should never be encouraged irl.

idk, this is just one anon's opinion. I know this has nothing to do with CS, so feel free to delete this. I just appreciate the fact that you encourage people to seek out healthier relationships. Most yandere content don't have any disclaimers, so it's kinda refreshing for me to see

[I get a personal, feel free to ignore. Not Carmen Sandiego related]

I don’t think it’s weird for you to write this at all! In fact it makes me happy that I can be recognized for putting that disclaimer. Unfortunately there isn’t a lot of disclaimers when it comes to yandere things and writings can get disgusting. (Not shaming yandere writers but man.)

I didn’t have the best childhood and that caused me to develop OLD, obsessive love disorder, known as the real life “yandere disorder.” I’m glad I didn’t hurt anyone physically but I could have, I was a ticking time bomb at that time. When it came to the person I was fixated on the smallest thing would set me off. They had a hobby I didn’t like? I started spiraling. The point of this is that yanderes aren’t fun and games and you sure as hell don’t want one in real life because they quirky people, they are people who are suffering. They need help, they shouldn’t be treated as cute or sexy.

maya angelou saying the funniest thing anyone has ever said about editing, which i can never let myself forget EVER AGAIN [x]

[poorly-drawn-mdzs]

The math just adds up!

[martyrbat]

i dont know who needs to hear this but you do not need to go on a diet. you do not need to lose weight as a new year revolution. you do not need to feel shame for gaining any weight over the holidays and for enjoying yourself and the food. you do not need to tolerate diet talk after setting a boundary and if someone cant respect that then theyre being the asshole. you already have a summer body. you already are hot. theres no moral failure or shame in being fat

[unexplained-events]

Eid Mubarak to all of you who are celebrating. I know it's hard to get in the spirit this year as so many Palestinians spend their Eid starving and in tents but I hope your Eid is full of peace and love. May we see a free Palestine by next Eid.

tshirt that says NO LIVE ORGANISM CAN CONTINUE FOR LONG TO EXIST SANELY UNDER CONDITIONS OF ABSOLUTE REALITY

we were fucking ROBBED

[glorious-spoon]

i know we all laugh (mostly fondly) about the paper-thin plots in porn that only exist to make the sex happen, but i was reading some old stargate fic over the weekend, and i really think we're sleeping on the paper-thin hurt/comfort plot that only exists to force the characters to FEEL THINGS.

like, is this scenario realistic? no. does it make any rational sense? no. does it provide a built-in excuse for a character to collapse, bloody and disoriented, into the arms of his beloved/friend/partner? obviously, that's the whole point of this exercise.

i love it. it's my favorite thing in the world.
