people who think i’m pretty? i think they’re full of shit

remember when i wrote

[matches [regexp-match #px"^((.)\\2*)(\\s*\\{(?:\\\\\\}\\\\|[^}])*(?:\\\\\\}\\\\|[^\\\\}]|\\\\(?!\\}\\\\))\\}\\s*)?(.*?)\\2*(\\s*\\{(?:\\\\\\}\\\\|[^}])*(?:\\\\\\}\\\\|[^\\\\}]|\\\\(?!\\}\\\\))\\})?\\s*$" trimmed]]

i long for those days

very curious imo

yet we talk about “what is the history behind zelda’s tense relationship with her father” (not: “what is the narrative function of zelda’s tense relationship with her father”) and “what does it say when the U.S. responds in such a way to China” (not: “what is the history behind the U.S.’s response to China”)

very interesting inversion; things are the way they are in a work of fiction in order to make a point; things are the way they are in real life for a multitude of reasons which are usually not consciously determined or sensibly organizable into a firm narrative statement

i think it is very interesting the extent to which People On The Internet seem to concern themselves with Why Things Are The Way They Are in a work of fiction and not on What Those Things Are Saying

contrarily i seem to find the opposite happening in real life

*speculates on lore*
very good analysis!

in fairness the “I Wrote This Instead Of Sleeping” Reader!Zelda/Link PWP smut currently sitting in the Notes app of my phone is really fucking good

i would like to remind potential employers that my academic area of expertise lies at the intersection of literary theory and sexuality studies

what if i published a “I Wrote This Instead Of Sleeping” Reader!Zelda/Link PWP smut chapterfic

i’m a writer because anybody who writes long enough eventually gets good at writing (this is a lie) but you can always tell the assholes straight off (also a lie)

the problem with instrumental musicians is that anybody who makes music long enough eventually gets good at making music even the assholes

i had an idea once to do these little writerly sketches but it never really took off

everyone does prompt things for october but unfortunately i am a writer,

i’m glad something like the internet archive exists but i wish it was run by better people lmao

this is funny because the Internet Archive could literally just be like “hey we are a massive internet library wot has a huge repository of public‐domain content and wot archives old webpages” and that would be a 1000% better sell than “maybe in the future, CHINA”

signs the mission and/or public utility of your organization is ill‐defined and unclear :—

oh right i was actually doing something before i got distracted by the internet archive’s predictably bad attempt at sensationalist fundraising
