This is a friendly reminder to give your OC a firm and unmistakable L every now and then.

This is a necessary action to keep your OC healthy for the long term.

honestly christianity really hit the jackpot with "jesus christ" rolling off the tongue as an expletive so well. the number one problem with fantasy settings is that whatever names you come up with to take in vain will never hit as well as "jesus christ"

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don’t have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.

nice argument unfortunately i have already depicted you as the arrogant and brash monkey king leaping an infinite breadth to the edge of the universe and myself as the enlightened buddha whose palm you have not escaped for I am the great sage equal to heaven

Cool, now imagine doing this forty times in a row

Reading a Terry Pratchett book is literally just: Here's a funny little joke Here's something that you can tell is a joke but don't get and will only figure out five years later Here's a surprisingly cool fantasy concept Here's a unique and well written simile Here's a lil guy Here's something that has aged depressingly well into the modern day Here's something that has aged remarkably queer into the modern day Here's a character that you can barely understand what he's saying Here is the most terrifying and deeply disturbing concept you have ever heard, casually mentioned Here is the dumbest fucking pun you've ever heard but in the best way Here is a quote so profound that it makes you view morality and the world in a different way Here is a plot twist that you can't tell if it's genius or stupid Congratulations! You've finished the book! It has fundamentally changed you as a person and you will never be the same!

Frankly, I’m really surprised. Like, I get it, but Caine is just like… tumblr sexyman coded you know what I mean? I mean, they literally got the guy who got popular voicing Spamton to play him.

Hey so I love this

My new video on Higurashi Chapter Five. Got a lot of voice actors and editors involved in this one, and everyone did a fantastic job!

Yo I came here from the Ede Valley playlist on youtube. It would be such a delight if you can make another one like that.

Hey thank you! And guess what! The Third Arc of Ede Valley is currently under way! All the new episodes are being added to that same playlist, so I hope you enjoy.

Also, if you're looking for more original work by me in the time between episodes, I would recommend giving Das Vadanya a try. It's much more of a traditional novel than Ede Valley, but I've had a lot of people really groove on it, so maybe you will too! That's located on another playlist on YouTube, or you can check out the podcast version on Spotify for that and all of the other things I've written:

i just saw a tiktok (<- cursed cursed site) that started out good, talking about how "show don't tell" is something you should keep in mind. It used the example of "instead of saying 'she opened the door', try 'her shaking hand twisted the doorknob, letting out a loud creak'".

And, yeah, if you're trying to convey the hesitance, fear, and eventual sucking-it-up that seems to be going on in the scene, that's great.

But.

The tiktok ended with, "see? Showing is ALWAYS better." And I just...

Friends & enemies, that's how you end up with that insufferable always-showing always-active YA writing style that does not know when to just shut up and say "she opened the door".

Because, yeah, I'll say it. Sometimes "she opened the door" IS better. Sometimes, the act of opening the door is literally just announcing a setting change, and you don't need to focus on it.

Show don't tell is about conveying important or relevant information, not about literally everything you're writing. You're allowed to say "she opened the door" & similar, and in fact, I encourage it in many scenarios.

Made a video about Master Detective Archives: Rain Code. It's the spiritual successor to Danganronpa, so if you wanna see a little of what it's all about, here's a good place to see what it's all about!
