you know what i'm gonna get sappy for a second bear with me

there are a lot of posts and memes for writers about how hard writing is and how annoying it can be and how dispiriting it can feel when we don't make progress the way we'd like to. and those are true, and relatable, and funny! i've been there!

but maybe it doesn't get said enough in the other direction, so I'm gonna say it: I love writing. i love the process of putting phrases together and testing them for cadence and flow; i love knowing that there is a word for exactly the thing I want to convey, even if I just can't think of it right now, and going onto a thesaurus and being like there she is, that's the one!

but more than anything, I love the ritual of constantly asking myself "okay, and then what happens?" and feeling the same sense of delighted surprise every single time when somehow, a part of me I wasn't consciously aware of knows the answer. that experience, where my brain provides me solutions I didn't know it was working on, feels like a miracle every time. and getting into a productivity groove where I keep knowing the answers is one of the best feelings on the planet.

and sure, sometimes I don't know the answer, and it's hard and unsatisfying and see above about how easy it is to joke about how writing's the pits, but... that just makes it even more special when I'm firing on all cylinders, you know?

anyway, yeah. w r i t i n g.

#writing is amazing and I wish I did it for a living #or at least I wish I was original enough to do it for a living that isn’t based on fanfiction #not to toot my own horn but the other I was rereading my own stuff and was like.. damn I did that #anyway I miss writing I need to get back to it

I hate how very specifically British colonialism overshadows all other imperialism.

Nobody talks about the Ottoman empire, the various shenanigans the Indian and Chinese rulers were up to, the Russian Empire (Russia is still a colonial Empire, btw) hell, even the shit Spain or Portugal did are swept under the rug. Nobody remembers French colonies in Africa or how much of a menace the Dutch used to be.

No, it's all Britain, all the time, baby. The only colonial Empire to ever exist, I guess.

#who tf thinks Britain is the only empire whose colonial and imperial history is the only one talked about? #I’m sorry but that sounds so white and American centric #bc I assure you even here in Europe nobody letting France or Belgium or Netherlands or Spain FORGET #France are having boycotts and protests to this DAY about their influence still in Africa #as well as the art theft #the Netherlands Royal monarchy are constantly pressured to apology for colonialism and slavery #Korea and Koreans still bring up the atrocities that Japan committed which they never acknowledged #that’s as much a conversation being held today as it was 10 years ago #Britain’s history is shitty and they are guilty of a lot of shit but to think ‘pl #‘ppl only talk about British imperial and colonialism’ is so narrow minded #and says that OP or anyone that agrees with that take does not know about anything except their white little echo circle #also ask anyone in latam about the Spaniards. #girl sit tf down

Tech bros who think digital is forever and that uploading your consciousness to a computer is immortality crack me up. Like bro, you'd be "immortal" on the computer for like a year until your own company sends out some software update that makes you incompatible and whoops, there goes TechBro.soul into the great Recycling Bin in the sky
