Sorry." Sent in response is a mangacap of Coco looking nervous with bandages over one eye. Beldarut replies, "OK I will make an exception because she looks very polite." End ID]

Hey, I'm trying to discover more about poetry, as I see how beautiful it is, but I really don't know where to start so do you have any suggestions?

Also I've seen you use the tag "nosebleedclub" on your recent post and I just wanted to ask what that is, if you don't mind?

Thanks!

Apologies for the late response, tumblr did not notified me of your ask. As to your question, try reading both classic and modern poetry. I recommend Allie Esiri’s compilations: A Poem For Every Winter Night (Same for the rest of the seasons), Seamus Heaney, Shakespeare - of course, Mary Oliver, Sylvia Plath, Pablo Neruda, E. E. Cummings, Penguins Poems For [Love/Life/by Heart], Ocean Vuong, Ada Limon, Margaret Atwood, Trista Mateer, Natalie Diaz, Audre Lorde, Louise Gluck, Maya Angelou.

Yes, I tend to lean towards female poets. But these are a good - imo - starting point.

And as to the tag ‘nosebleedclub’, it’s for this blog: @nosebleedclub, they post prompts every month and whenever I (or someone else) write one, we tag them like that so that the admins can see it and reblog it.

Have a lovely day/night friend!

while i love posts about writing for yourself and i think they’re extremely important, i do think it omits the fact that stories, in all shape, form and medium are created and exist solely to be shared. yes i write for myself, but i also write because when i was 12 i read a book by Le Clézio (french author) called Lullaby that was thinner than my own pinky (and what small fingers I have) and at 26, i still pick up this tiny book with the same reverence that I had when i was barely out of childhood. i write because when i watched the sandman last week and i cried each episode at the gentleness and infinite kindness neil gaiman shows for humanity in every story he tells. i write because one time somebody commented on a fic i’d posted years before for a fandom i didn’t really belong to, with a trope i didn’t even particularly enjoyed, to tell me that several years later, even though they’d stopped reading fanfiction, they still thought about that one scene from my story and they took the time to tell me YEARS after reading it for the first time

this isn’t to say you shouldn’t write for yourself. i’m still the first person to cry reading my own stories, but i share them because if it just made one other person cry, it will have been all worth it

#fanfiction #fanfic #writing #ao3 #fandom #mine #this doesn’t preclude the fact that all artists should be paid for their art #i want to be very clear that i don’t condone exposure as a form of payment #but yes i do think the primary goal of art is to make others feel #not to be sold #like when i was 16 in philosophy class we had a whole class about the meaning of being humans #and i just couldn’t understand why the answer wasn’t simply ‘art’ #still don’t #probably too philosophical to go into main post so tags it is #ely talks

Lately, I have been dreaming about owning my own store. One day is a bookstore, others a gift shop, others a children’s clothing, others a office/school supply store. And I won’t lie, it hurts. Because I would love to own my own store, but I don’t have the capital to do it.

And my brain is being an asshole and having me dream about it. And before you ask, yes, I have done the research necessary.

you motherfuckers have no concept of what "land back" or "decolonize" even mean. you're too busy demonizing entire groups of people, terrified, shitting yourselves, that they'll do even half of the horrors to you that you've done to them for decades or centuries. this shit comes off as hella racist for real. you hate arabs so much. you hate first nations people so much. you hate black people so much. even if you sympathize with them, you can't fucking bear the idea of them gaining freedom, independence, autonomy, safety, because you're so, so scared they'll hurt you back and cause chaos in the streets. these same people who just want to rebuild. who just want to go home. who just want to see their families again. who just want food. who just want medical care. who just want dry, warm shelter. you're so focused on the ideas of colonization, of "us vs. them", of one people displacing the other for a state to exist, that you cannot comprehend coexistence, and your only idea of peace is if an entire group of people were just gone and dead.

grow the fuck up. for the love of GOD, grow the fuck up.

#eli talks #rant #i just watched a video shared by someone i'd been following a while denying the genocide occuring in gaza entirely #are you kidding. are you fucking kidding me. #the video was trying to run with the idea that “from the river to the sea” means jewish people will be expelled from the region #no the fuck it does not you stupid motherfucker that's NOT what decolonization is #anyway. land back. decolonize. from the river to the sea. peace and love on planet earth. #stop razing olive trees. stop scorching the earth. stop bombing hospitals and schools. stop destroying the sea. #if i have to see another palestinian child undergo anesthesia-free amputation im going to start being physically fucking violent #if i have to see another mother with blood on her hands wailing and begging for her child to come back im going to start burning shit #one day all the people of palestine will be free. muslims and jews and christians and all and none. #one day all the people of sudan will be free. all the people in the congo will be free. all the peoples in the americas will be free. #and all the other occupied places suffering genocides and ethnic cleansings that the news neglects to mention. theyll be free too.

1. Stiles left Beacon Hills to never return and left his jeep.

2. Derek saved his jeep and fixed everything. Stiles's dad flat out says Derek saved it after Stiles left and tried to fix it up. Stiles had it held together with duck tape but Derek put everything into fixing it, but it wasn't able to run perfectly.

3. In the 15 years since Stiles left to never return, it ended up in the junkyard because Derek couldn't fix it like he wanted to, but he wouldn't abandon it.

4. Eli, Derek's kid, would routinely steal it to piss Derek off.

5. After Derek died. Stiles's dad gave Eli the keys to the jeep and told him Derek had "complicated feelings about the Jeep" but it should definitely be Eli's.

So like Derek was in love with Stiles huh? Like he saved Stiles's jeep, when Stiles himself abandoned it. He tried to make it run smoothly and when he couldn't he kept it under a tarp at the junkyard to not be driven but not to be scrapped either. And then his son would regularly steal it solely to piss Derek off. Derek himself said it was just to make him mad. And then when Derek died, Sheriff Stilinski gave the keys to Eli and said he should have it and that Derek had "complicated feelings about the jeep" but it was Eli's. Derek was definitely in love with Stiles and I just.

A neighbor makes cake to sell, and she told my mom that she’ll be giving classes. And apparently, she has extended an invitation for me to join. You bet I’m taking that offer if she lets me know.

Sorry for only posting sketches, I don't have much time at home to draw and I'm waiting to move, that's why I'm posting more traditional drawings, but don't worry, soon I'll post more finished digital drawings

people were really calling a trans woman vile and a demon and harassed her off this website for pointing out that a good person who passed away might have been using a female name and she/her pronouns. lol. lmao
