Can you hear me?

agh. i don't want to spoil the fic i'm working on, but i DESPERATELY need advice on what to do

is hopping around in time confusing? it's clearly marked and all that jazz but aaaaaa

actually a good way to describe this:

This fic is about a specific period of time (four days.)

Would you rather read one character's experience of those four days in one continuous block, and then read the second character's experience or would you want to read everything in chronological order, switching between characters as necessary.

introducing my four year old niece to the concept of "moral dilemmas" by telling her that i'm a monster that eats children and that i know it's wrong but i'm so so so hungry and everything else tastes yucky. i've tried all the human food in the world and it all tastes so yucky i can't even eat it. i can only eat children and i'm so hungry

her resolution was that if i meet a kid that has the same name as their sibling, then i can eat one of them. their parents won't be sad, because they have another kid with the same name right there. speaks to an uninformed but fascinating worldview

our history teacher tried a similar tack but the theoretical scenario was "the man who invented the medicine necessary to save your wife is charging more money than you can pay and won't accept credit. you're against stealing but you also don't want your wife to die. what do you do?"

our answer was not only to steal the medicine but to murder the inventor because if he's paywalling life-saving medicine, the solution that involves the lowest body count is killing him. we're ethically and morally obligated to eliminate this threat to human survival

did not go the way he thought it would

WAAAH WAAH WAAAH WAAAHH

I’m bored and nosy. Please reblog this with the book you’re currently reading.

CHAPPELL ROAN at Coachella Weekend 2

Native Children watching the massacre sequence from Little Big Man in the documentary Reel Injun.

As a child, the only Indians I ever saw on TV were the ones dying. Watching this scene of the documentary always makes me feel like crying.

^That is exactly why I made The Aila Test / Ali Nahdee Test.

Paramore was right. Hard times
