this happens a lot when you fear you can’t live up to your own tastes
but nothing ever will on the first draft
let it suck! it’s fine
“writing is rewriting” is the truest aphorism
revisions are where you make it sing
all the first draft has to do is exist
trust the process!

Good things are still possible, never give up
ITS HIGH CAMP!!!!!!!!!
Coop, shirtless for some reason and sitting with a piece of cake: I can eat this in 5 bites.
Me, sitting on the couch and nodding sagely: and he will.
I am so glad I am not alone in my love and devotion to "Trap" (2024)
YESS TRAP HEADS UNITE!!!!!!
Finally saw “Exit 8” last night and I was really impressed by filmmaking and adaptation choiceS! First third is so true to the games mechanics that I was thinking “how.. will this be feature length..” and then it took a very smart turn that fully locked me in.
She said the noise I made is not reflected by this gif
*watching new episode of Hacks*
Maria: omg that’s *insert Internet personalities and writers from the show doing cameos*
Me: baby please I don’t know who any of these people are 😭
Me 2 seconds later when a Ragatha cosplayer is in the background:
Shoutout to this cat I met at a Time Used Books in Lodi today 💪🐈
Exactly!!! How did this get SO HUGE…
Wait I did skip ahead and I do like the song where his mom chews him out for being a weirdo
Anyway, watch the Bob Baker Marionette Theatre’s Coachella performance of Ben Platt singing Diet Pepsi by Addison Rae www.instagram.com/reel/DW9_Zf_...
After the whiplash of the sister singing about how her brother was so abusive she’s not sad that he’s dead IMMEDIATELY followed by Ben Platt coyly singing about how her dead abusive brother actually secretly loved her (because he’s admitting HE loves her) I had to give up. I wasn’t strong enough
First 2 songs- good bops about the difficulty of being a teen! And a parent of a teen! I can see why it was popular
3rd song- another very genuine song about… oh he’s making stuff up about a dead kid he doesn’t know?? But without any hint of darkness or irony in the music??
I’ve been on a mini road trip this weekend and after listening to Ben Platt’s cover of “Diet Pepsi” 20 times I thought I’d finally give Dear Evan Hanson a shot.
Yall. I couldn’t do it. That show is diabolical in ways I wasn’t prepared for.
I’m finally jumping catching up with season 2 of Dorohedoro and the new opening WHIPS ASS!!!!!!!!!
I just watched the trailer for the latest installment and I am a little bummed it’s not a straight up “haunted dentist office” movie
Ok I’m going to be honest and say I haven’t seen the Insidious movies so I might be missing some important context but WHY is the SI in the title red.
Like usually that’s done to highlight .. something? Another word? Clever context??
Am I supposed to read it as “in-yes-dious”?
I know literally nothing about Clarvicular except for anytime I read his name is say it the same way Raz says “Funicular!” In Psychonauts 2
Oh there’s an animated bloodborne movie being made?? Let me just *drops this on the floor for no reason*
Something I love about my sister is I’ll tell her about some random horror film I’m looking forward to and the next day, without question, she will be seeing a Director Q n A screening of it
(She LOVED Exit 8 btw. I’m excited to catch it sometime next week!)
Update: My Sister in Brooklyn didn’t get to meet The Walking Man from Exit 8 in the Subway but she DID get to meet him (and the director, Genki Kawamaru) at a screening
This is so horrifying on so many levels. Again, please call your members of congress and beyond - The states should fight this hard too. The impact is ... difficult to comprehend.
Oh! Fiona Dourif in a movie made by the team who did "Devil's Bath?" Which made me physically ill and ruined my week? Lets fucking GO
Texted my sister in Brooklyn IMMEDIATELY
Here's the number for the congressional switchboard. Please call your reps and senators. This man needs to be removed from office now.
