@ohfortheloveofg@MisterStallion @siobhanpart2 @notgwendalupe You also have to take into account the age of the intended audience and the length of novel they can read, which will influence everything like what gets focus, which characters get development, where plot points are inserted, etc
@ohfortheloveofg@MisterStallion @siobhanpart2 @notgwendalupe There are reasons and dynamics for any placement of death within a novel, but to characterize shocking and unwelcome deaths as "author abuse" for "no reason" is what I'm addressing. It's a lazy take. Especially because stallion is actually giving the author malicious intent
@MisterStallion @siobhanpart2 @notgwendalupe Except that that wouldn't create investment in the characters or friendships or incite the emotions and stages of grief within the readers in order to get them to process the emotions
This is the right call. Like it or not, President Trump is one of the country’s leading political figures and the public has a strong interest in hearing his speech.
@GoldieGlocks83 @halford_rosie @GeraintWorks Except impatience, impulsivity and emotional uninhibitedness are all characteristics of ADHDers who don't cheat, too. Correlation =/= causation and relationships don't exist in a vacuum
@JennieTetreault I'm sure others with EDs have/had similar experiences, but, your claim is anecdotal and does not represent everyone. The relationship between EDs and fatphobia is complex and nuanced, especially in terms of onset and recovery
As Biden cancels (some) student debt, remember why the debt exists. A key Reagan advisor warned in 1970 that free college was producing the dangerously explosive "dynamite" of an "educated proletariat," and "we have to be selective on who we allow to go through higher education":
@NikkiNikkinow2 Also, I do see that she has an ethnic background but lives as a ww, so I'm not saying she is Yt or not, just that she seems to have those same behaviors
@NikkiNikkinow2 I know that's a lot, hopefully there are some kernels in there that are helpful to you. Yt people can be the least self-reflective and it's so fucking annoying. "Be nice to me or I don't have to worry about myself and my actions" like grow the fuck up
