Upswing

Any activity before 12 noon comes

with its own license to linger, still

on the rise, the ball arcing upwards

towards its sunshine crescendo.

Soak in all the light you can.

Be you flora, feline or even man.

The day may ask from you a lot;

Find repreive in your sunspot.

역사를 탐구하는 것은 미래를 선취하는 길이다. 추세를 바꾸는 변곡점을 찾아내고 해석할 수 있어야 지속가능한 미래를 설계할 수 있다. "우리는 미국 사회의 위대함이 정상에 도달했던 순간을 노스탤지어의 눈빛으로 바라보려는 게 아니다. 우리의 시대와 아주 유사한 절망적인 시대를 보고 그 속에서 영감과 교훈을 얻으려 하는 것이다. 과거의 그 절망적인 순간에 미국인들은 역사의 방향을 성공적으로 전환하여-이것은 측정 가능하다-더욱 유망한 방향으로 나아갔다. Our thesis is not that we should return nostalgically to some peak of American greatness, but that we should take inspiration and perhaps instruction from a period of despair much like our own, on the heels of which Americans successfully—and measurably—bent history in a more promising direction." 로버트 D. 퍼트넘, <업스윙> #Book #Upswing #Individualism #Community #History https://www.instagram.com/p/ClGm2iyvwIM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When you’re a woodland park witch and you realize you’re enjoying being outside for the first time in 21 days due to a combo of illness + heat wave — and you’re in the upswing of your recovery AND the heat wave breaks enough for an absolutely glorious evening orchestra courtesy of cicadas + a gentle fresh breeze rustling the leaves + happy kiddos playing at the park across the street + the sound of your familiar catching up on all the smells he’s missed.

A seasonal offering for you: a scene from my old fic Only Lovers See The Fall, in which Caleb and Essek contemplate endings and beginnings at a Harvest Close festival in Zadash. The right kind of autumn red looks just like the Vermaloc of Rosohna and the home Essek has left behind.

My strength as an artist is in nature subjects and simplified, gestural comics, so it was fun to stretch myself a bit by attempting a full scene with people and buildings. Happy Autumn! 🍁🍂🌻

#the fic balances melancholy with light festival shenanigans btw. a carefully mixed emotional cocktail that ends on the upswing #thanks discord friends for your encouragement and advice! #ariadne draws CR #critical role #shadowgast #fanart #image ID in alt text

wow i forgot how terribly alone daisy is this season. she's basically operating solo for the entirety of 5a. she's fresh off healing from the trauma of the past seasons, and BARELY so. and then she finds out she's going to be responsible for DESTROYING THE PLANET. and then she gets back home and finds out coulson is dying. her usual support system has all but completely abandoned her. and NOBODY is listening to a single word she has to say or considering her feelings. she gets strapped to a table and has SURGERY performed by one of her best friends WITHOUT any anesthetic, and she begs fitz to stop. afterwards, there's nobody to comfort her and her best friend leave her completely alone to go support the man who just violated her. homegirl literally digs up her dead mom's corpse to even have a shot at saving coulson. and she does find a way to save him. but she has to ditch that to save the world. then fitz dies. AND THEN HER DAD DIES.

#this season HATES daisy #it seems like things are on the upswing for her in s7 #which i am praying is right #srsly s7 looks so fucking fun im actually so excited to get there #as soon as it aired and i found out it was time travel i became SO SO excited #and all the daisy edits w/ season 7 clips go so hard #AND TIME LOOP!!!! #TIME LOOP!!!!!! #mattie has drafts #FOR SOME REASON?? #aos #daisy johnson #save who queue can save

I would love to know what the venn diagram of "people posting about the importance of compassion and solidarity and choosing kindness" and "people who immediately resort to telling everyone they disagree with to kill themselves" looks like

#it should be two separate circles! but i suspect the overlap is larger than you'd expect #is it just me or has there been a huge upswing in people telling others to kill themselves lately #i just feel like i've been seeing it a lot. especially about things like minor disagreements #or 14-year-olds being kind of cringey #lot of people on this site are WAY too fucking comfortable with that phrase and i hate it

an idea i invite anyone else to write about / run with lol....

the premise that The Change gets all messed up for alberto, say it's something that can happen from stress, &/or happens rarely and you just have to wait for it to resolve itself....used as some parallel to struggling through some emotional turbulence / upheaval / questioning / Realizing Things, etc etc

#luca 2021 #pixar luca #alberto scorfano #another idea i've failed to write for & so invite anyone else to run with: ciao alberto but what if he peaces out by swimming off lol #ends up in a coastal town maybe an hour's swim from genoa. but not Getting In Touch w/anyone for a while b/c plausibly he thinks that #giulia may not be a fan of him now by extension; just being too embarrassed asf to reach out to luca kinda lol....luca off doing his own #thing just fine & alberto not wanting to write him now like b/c i Ruined Everything again ahaha.... #and by ''not in touch w/anyone for a while'' who knows. months; a few years even....might stumble across news of him b/c like. #say more sea folk are coming to land / more humans know abt them & not many places are as [harpoon]ly from the start anyways #portorosso exceptional in that way....maybe where alberto settles down they're like legendary but also considered Good Luck anyways lol. #anyways like some people know of him who might; say; swim down to portorosso. have their own teen who knows a teen who mostly lives on land #most convenient re sparking [wow could they mean Our alberto] if he doesn't go so far as to take up an alias lol. but why would he.... #that difference in that massimo might figure that however alberto was surviving before; he could continue to do so now; but even though tha #is some comfort it's still Not Actually Enough....feeling way more Parentally towards alberto than his biological dad like that; obv #and anyways re: this [The Change gets messed up] idea it's more of an inconvenience lol but one that could still have some significance #like if he first finds out the issue exists via hopping right into the ocean; failing to change forms; never being human form'd in water b4 #thee worst....crash intro course to the experience of drowning. observation of How Humans Swim / being able to grab any part of the boat... #and besides That unpleasantness it's like; hey. where's my nonhuman form at #or; of course; being in sea form even while dry....especially if he's still dealing with Nonsense on land. which is presumed. #&/or if there's an upswing in nonsense b/c of Other ways you're Othered...ofc we can consider like; tfw you're a gay fish & maybe that's no #something that on its own would be like Aah until it's like well a) i kinda wanna do things that would make this Visible and b) i've learne #that humans also Have Issues about this kind of thing.... #appropriately my tablet was also all thrown off. no pressure sensitivity; input sensitivity overall was rough #but i would've had to restart my laptop about it lol like eh i'll just work around it

I remember a bit you posted positing that the whole point of Worm is that the correct choice of which of the Big Two superhero settings to live in is "none of them". I do kinda wonder: How do you think one would go about creating a superhero setting that doesn't kinda suck to live in, assuming such a thing is even possible/desirable (fictional settings that don't suck to live in are honestly rare)?

Astro City by Kurt Busiek I think got closest, sort of by the nature of the project- it's a multifaceted vignette-based look at the ups and downs of a superhero setting with a 100+year-long internal timeline, and therefore it's kind of inherently predicated on the idea that things are generally going to turn out all right on balance, in an anthropic principle sort of way. (And this is an attitude that's generally been adopted by the populace within the setting; one of the earliest issues involves a sequence where the residents of an apartment block set up a party on the roof to watch a giant galactus-type crisis situation, because they have no control over whether or not the heroes will be able to deal with it, but all things being equal it's a hell of a thing to see.)

Of course, many, many capes within the setting end up dead on the job or weighed down by the events of their past, but less in a way that feels like the story is trying to aggressively make a point about how dark the underlying conceit of superheroism is, and more in a way that if you took a birds-eye view of any subculture over a 100-year period, you'd obviously see a bunch of luminaries die or retire because that's just a really long period of time even before you get into the lifestyle risks.

#asks #thoughts #astro city #meta #an additional thing is that Astro City's level of dystopianosity is textually something that fluctuates #most stories set from the 90s on are set in an idealistic upswing #but the 70s-90s of the setting were pointedly and noticably more violent and with higher civillian body counts #to reflect the tone of big two comics during those years

While I still have Bane on my mind, I would like to propose the following AU: We increase chaos by moving Bane's 'Hey, Bruce I think we're brothers' arc from Gotham Knights to take place at the same time as Under the Red Hood.

So Bruce is over here getting terrorized by Jason when Bane shows up and is like 'yo, I think we're brothers'

Alternatively, Jason pulls his duffel bag full of heads gambit only instead of Batman and Nightwing showing up to confront him, Bane gets out of the passenger seat

Jason trying to have a dramatic confrontation with Bruce, but Bane is just there because he refused to leave. He doesn't know who Jason is or what this whole deal's about.

Bruce is having to simultaneously confront the fact that his son might have come back from the dead and the fact that Bane might be his half brother

He has the paternity test running on one lab bench and the jason dna test running on the other

I'm not sure what Jason's opinions on this are, but he probably has no idea who Bane is. Look, this mysterious brother of Batman wasn't in any of the files Talia gave him!

(He was, but it was is in the Knightfall file he didn't read underneath the plague and earthquake and joker last laugh and bruce getting arrested for murder files he also didn't read and the gang war file that he at least skimmed)

On a more serious note, I bet Dick and Tim and Barbara, etc think that Bruce about to go off the rails again because they came out of the gang war and Bruce is dealing poorly with the Jason stuff and also, he's hanging out with Bane????

idk. I just think this would make things worse in entertaining ways
