There is something really fucked up that we can now just fucking watch the last seconds of someone's life on our tiny little phones and repost it everywhere
Just feels extremely dystopian to me
Praying hard that we find some survivors asap in the Air India crash. I just cannot come to terms with the way the plane just fell from the sky man
#i hope those who passed away didn't feel too much pain#i cannot imagine the trauma of being stuck in that debris#and also those students of med school in which the plane crashed#like just going with their day eating their lunch and suddenly they are in ICUs or MIA#dawg what is wrong with the aviation industry HOW COULD NO ONE CATCH THIS#how could no one catch that there was something really fucking wrong with the plane#i am so disturbed

Me writing what should have been at most a bullet point one-shot comedic romance adventure: “hee hee hoo I’ll knock this out in no time”
Me, four months later and 112k+ words in: “Hmm I think I need to look at the practical engineering reference guide again so we can really assess the recycler issue on this cistern in the compound because I don’t know that they could have it on the lower level if the mountain rock is going to have a level 9 on the Mohs hardness scale—”
#Cannot stress enough how very little any of this research actually gets put into the fic itself#I just need for any technical/sci-fi details I include to sound somewhat believable even if they’re only mentioned in passing#Most of these conflicts are based on their environment so it has to have some measure of truth at the center#It’s like how you can tell when a book centered around nature or agriculture has been written by somebody who didn’t actually grow up aroun#either of those things and obviously hasn’t done their research to the point their characters know what they’re talking about#Anyway yeah. The soldiers need to seem competent at fixing their equipment and improvising tools based on the vast amount of training#and education they were given#Which means I as the author need to understand the problem the complications AND THE SOLUTION well enough the characters sound#not just knowledgeable but natural and familiar with it when talking about it#Same goes for the pilot. I’m pulling out my old flight manuals and looking into advanced avionics just so I can consolidate#a simplified answer into two sentences she can use to explain her area of expertise to somebody who has no idea what kind of ship she flies#Anyway#Fic: Call Sign#The actual simple reason for doing this is that effective imagery and worldbuilding fills out the world and makes it richer as a result#And unfortunately that means I am doing several crash courses in about fifteen different sciences so that I know what I’m talking about#Fun fact I wanted to be a cargo pilot but the aviation program at my university was THE most expensive major they had#And I’m not good/fast enough at math to get through even the small aircraft piloting guide 😞#If I can’t have the adventures and experiences I want I can at least tell stories where they happen#The good news is I have had plenty of experience fixing things and improvising technical solutions based on what science and history I know#So many of these problems are just household and vehicle issues on a bigger scale

Tryna get the world to understand that I don’t have long hair in a “pretty girl” way, I have long hair in a “80’s metalhead grunge bad boy that your parents don’t want you dating even though they’re literally the nicest person you’ve ever met and the tattoos and motorcycle don’t negate that dad!” way
#anyone got any tips?#cause rn T is looking really damn good#got piercings and aviators and everything#but still#curse this flesh prison#I’m uninterested passing as very cis and this is a problem#trans issues#transmasc#nonbinary
