Uph my Instagram and Facebook are down!! Gotta say tho, find it a little suspicious they “went down” a day after all this Wayfaire stuff is being shared like wildfire on both sites 🤷‍♀️

Let's talk about #ableism and #disability.

I don't get into politics on here, and I'm not about to start now. What I am going to do, however, is point out how current political conversations are feeding into the dehumanization of disabled people. (1/?)

Jude: listen, i know you're FASCINATED by them, but we really need to stop communicating over walkie-talkies or our relationship will be over

Cardan: our relationship will be what? over

This was such a cute test!

I tend to be easily distracted, but this test was cute and this flower is pretty so ❤

I am posting this because I spent 5 hours staring at the place the wall meets the ceiling trying to figure out how stories work and I have to believe it was progress.

"The pen is mightier than the sword" might sound like a trite phrase until you realize that the war isn't over when the battle is won, but when the treaty is signed.

Keep writing. It's powerful.

Really preaching this to myself right now 🤍

Normalize saying “I don’t know enough to have an opinion.”

[Rohan Naidu @Rohan_Naidu]

Hot take: academic writing is so tortuous to read because it comes from a place of fear, not a place of joy. Fear of sounding different from the literature, being attacked by anon peer reviewers, sticking your neck out too much w/o perhaps' likelys maybes coulds.

Homeschooling is not:
-a cause of abuse. Can abusers use it? Sure. Abusers can also use positions of power in the school system.
-an inferior education. I ranked past high school on standardized tests since 4th grade. I was >90th percentile consistently across subjects.

[Eric Smith @ericsmithrocks]

Every writer’s “close friends” circle on Instagram consists of:

1. Dear friends.

2. Select family.

3. A bunch of writers they’ve never met and only know online but would totally die for.

[Victoria/V.E. Schwab @veschwab]

Maybe novels are finding ways to be both meaningful and entertaining, commenting on society and life while providing a much needed doorway out of this current landscape. Fantasy isn’t the absence of political and philosophical examination, but dissection in the guise of escape.

Here's my second film study. I love the atmosphere of this scene so much. I had to draw it. 🖤

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

We were told 15 days. Most people can do that. We’re halfway through. But we need some assurance that it will end on the 15th day. “15 days but it might be 3 months” is not a workable plan. If it is going to be longer, we need to know how much longer and what the end game is.
