Literally this whole situation has me second-guessing every ounce of enthusiasm I’ve ever shown. I promise, I’m just really really fucking happy to be here.

The cast of ‘THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT’ have released a statement ahead of the original’s 25th anniversary & a new reboot, asking for:

1️⃣ - Residual payments for the film, which they never got

2️⃣ - Consultation on future projects where their names & likeness are used

3️⃣ - A $60k

'You can always return home.'

But also... becoming a better writer means you must read a lot and write a lot and edit a lot and and and

So when you are clout chasing a lot, you deprive yourself of time and energy better spent on craft.

flooding all my energy into making this new D&D character because they’re actually bringing me so much joy and this week has been something else entirely

do something that brings you joy today, friends

in related news: monks???? broken! I’ve created a broken ass monk and I LOVE them their name is Sawyer they’re a LITTLE SUNSHINE BABY

If you stay in this industry long enough, you learn to spot the writers that care more about accumulating power and connections rather than working on their craft. The entitlement that they be awarded clout and publications. The superficial/artificial relationships with peers...

Having a pen name is not an inherent red flag. I understand where the paranoia is coming from but y’all are attempting to put a lot of people in a dangerous situation for your own personal comfort

hey friends— unrelated to everything lately, but im trying to get a cat (emotional support animal) as my anxiety/paranoia has been spiking again... but i need $400 for vet/landlord fees. my v3nmo is haleystrass or DM for my p@ypal! pic for attention <3 pls retweet.

y’all listen to me ok I’m seeing Hozier on Birmingham, AL at 7:30 PM in a few weeks. Noah Kahan is playing the Shaky Knees fest in ATL at noon on that same day. ATL is 2 hours away from Birmingham.

IM INSANE BUT DO YOU SEE WHAT IM SAYING. I CAN DREAM. I CAN DREAM!!!!!

TTRPGs for Palestine via tiltify is just over $2,500 away from meeting its $10,000 fundraising goal!! Thank you all for supporting this community effort! There are over 190 TTRPGs for you to discover for a donation of just $15+

Abigail was FUCKING AWESOME y’all

As this submission period ends (05/15) we will open an IndieGoGo crowdfund. We’re NOT at risk of closing, and our issues are funded to release as planned. Rather than a press-saving measure, this is more an exclusive merch+ sale drive. So why IndieGoGo, rather than Kickstarter?🧵

if you missed it— Freydis Moon, a well-known indie dark romance author, has been revealed as a white author race-faking, harassing other authors, and spreading harm in the community. i stand with those they hurt, both now and in the past, and have pulled my reviews of their books

Sick and tired of this kind of thing. I’d given “Freydis” the benefit of the doubt but this doc is incredibly damning.

Im so sorry for everyone who was manipulated by them or is affected by this and if you need to talk, my dms are open.
