A Dragon Who Decides To Hoard Mint And Various Types Of Mint Plants (and Not Knowing That Mint Has The

Getting called out by mine own girlfriend :( nothing is safe anymore so sad

My partner is such a Nerd they're literally looking through pretty magic cards, just the land though

Your personal triggers and squicks do not get to determine what kind of art other people make.

People make shit. It's what we do. We make shit to explore, to inspire, to explain, to understand, but also to cope, to process, to educate, to warn, to go, "hey, wouldn't that be fucked up? Wild, right?"

Yes, sure, there are things that should be handled with care if they are used at all. But plenty more things are subjective. Some things are just not going to be to your tastes. So go find something that is to your tastes and stop worrying so much about what other people are doing and trying to dictate universal moral precepts about art based on your personal triggers and squicks.

I find possession stories super fucking triggering if I encounter them without warning, especially if they function as a sexual abuse metaphor. I'm not over here campaigning for every horror artist to stop writing possession stories because they make me feel shaky and dissociated. I just check Does The Dog Die before watching certain genres, and I have my husband or roommate preview anything I think might upset me so they can give me more detail. And if I genuinely don't think I can't handle it, I don't watch it. It's that simple.

Impossible question.

Working on flora/cappish, my conlang for my gfs homebrew dnd mushroom race, at like 1 AM and I got so lost in the sauce of verb conjugation that I forgot my sentence order

The showrunners of game of thrones, when asked by a director if there were any themes that they wanted to have appear in the episode he was directing, responded 'themes are for eighth grade book reports' and that's why I'm never going to trust any media they create from here on out

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).

Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.

Listen man THIS ONE? I will butcher it. I promise you I will. I couldn't dance if everyone's lives depended on it. Like I can try to research how to describe dancing but I have six left feet and no sense of sensuality. I have rhythm but none of it is actually useful. It doesn't translate from mind to body, much less so to words.

Three years from now when you've forgotten about even asking for it it's gonna pop up on a recommended page covered in dust and even then it'll just be this

I promise a whole-hearted attempt but it's definitely gonna be a hot minute for me to figure it out.

Thank you so much for your ask/request, Little Bat 🦇🥰
