being a slow writer and a perfectionist is such a disease my god I have so many fanfic ideas but just working on one alone takes me months at the very least and I want to talk about it more with people but my little lizard brain won’t let me until I’m done

#I’m so thankful I have really good nerdy friends #who all let me ramble to hell and back about my hyperfixations #because I at least feel comfortable talking to them about it #in comparison idk why I’m so allergic to socialization on tumblr #literally no one on here cares #yet I’m still just like 🤐

Writing Reference - Perception of richness and poverty

If there’s one thing I’ve realised over the years, most people don’t see themselves as poor or rich. 

Most people assume they are just normal. No matter how much money they make or how they live. 

Even if they live in a large home with a large garden and have no trouble paying their bills, they see billionaires on the news and think, “they’re rich, I am not.”

Even if they struggle to pay their bills and don’t always know where their next meal comes from, they see people who are homeless and think, “I’m not poor, they are.” 

You’re probably no exception to this rule. I certainly am not. I remember a year ago explaining to my boyfriend that I was middle class. He laughed and looked it up… apparently my definition of rich is middle class. I was just refusing to admit I was poor. Still a bit upset by that, ignorance truly is bliss. 

Anyways, why is this relevant when writing? 

Well, if we’re writing a character we perceive as rich or poor, we may automatically assume they know this. 

But unless they are extremely rich or poor, or they’ve researched at some point, they probably won’t be that knowledgeable about their financial status, just seeing themselves as normal. 

And I know this might not seem like a big deal, but it actually is, it’s a huge part of the issues we face in society nowadays, the inability to distinguish class, causing us to assume everybody is capable of the same things when realistically, we aren’t. 

So if their class, their financial situation, is relevant to your writing, then the perception of such should also be relevant. 

As usual, check out my book, stories I’ve written plus other social medias: here.

Hannah Montana is fucked up because its entire POINT as a show is that children should be protected from fame and exploitation, but it stars a REAL little girl that's being exploited. Nearly every episode carries the looming threat of Miley being outed as Hannah and losing her peaceful teenage life to the ravages of fame. Her father in the show (played by her own father in real life) wisely protected her from the trauma of fame by making her wear a disguise and live a rather quiet, interview-free life. Meanwhile the REAL Billy Ray Cyrus sold his daughter to Disney Channel when she was 11 and forced her to read dialogue about how terrible it would be to face the public eye. Like... Jesus, dude. The fictional Robby Ray is 10x the father, and it's not even close. (It's also IMMENSELY funny that her dad doesn't use his real name in the show, while she does. Almost like he wanted a bit of a disconnect between his identity and his character. Something Miley didn't get.)

Not to be a Boomer but your social media should be your own space, not something employers are allowed to look at to judge you beyond the qualifications stated in your resume and cover letter

actual criticisms of academia:

cost of education acting as class barrier

exploitation of graduate workers

colonialist past and present

ties to military industrial complex

danger of power structure entrenching and justifying orthodox views on social issues

criticisms of academia that get made:

those damn ivory tower academics are wasting money learning about things

How the fuck can there be anti vaccine "witches?" If you disagree with binding an invisible malignant entity into a single drop of potion that seals a subject's blood against the full force of that very same entity's curse then you are not and can never be a witch you're just a karen who buys rocks
