[cheerfully] i've been in self-made hells worse than this

David Lynch's memoir/bio "Room to Dream" starts off, "You can dissect someone's childhood searching for clues that explain the person the child grew up to be. But more often than not there is no inciting incident, no Rosebud." The next chapter proceeds to explain Everything About His Whole Deal

Like yes I do agree that people too often look for Childhood Explanations to try and neatly summarize a person's psychology and it's rarely ever that simple. But also it's very hard to read about Lynch's childhood and not narrow your eyes and go "Huh. Okay... this makes a lot of things make sense"

"GREW UP IN SMALL TOWN AMERICA IN THE 1950s TO KIND PARENTS AND LOVING FRIENDS. MY HOBBIES WERE BUILDING BOMBS AND KISSING GIRLS. I WITNESSED SO MUCH SPOUSAL ABUSE AND ALSO ONE OF MY EX GIRLFRIENDS WAS PROBABLY KILLED BY HER HUSBAND AND THE MURDER COVERED UP BY THE COPS. I LOVE PIE"

i made a character sheet. free to use as you wish, feel free to change whatever you want XD open source ass thing. spent all of ~maybe an hour on it.

Credit: the text in the insert-image box comes from this video, and the text for the top three lines (intense, complex, fruity) comes from this post. The actual image was made with the free NBOS character sheet creator, which is a sort of dated but free and solid text-layout sheet maker intended for ttrpg style character sheet creation.

this is GENUINELY one of the best character development sheets I've ever seen. Cuts right to the core of what you and your readers will glom onto, doesn't waste time on details that don't directly affect the narrative. Stupendous. Effervescent. Finally, some good fucking food

Just a few more hours

Had a dream last night that i was a knight and this bigger scarier knight had me on the ground and right before he swung his sword at my neck he said smth like "i mourn the loss of life for the tree who will become your coffin" which shouldnt have turned me on like it did but alas

Reblog if, no matter the size of the role, you would agree to work with the Muppets if offered the chance to do so, no questions asked

THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FINISH THE PITCH BEFORE I TELL EM I’M IN

Recruiter: Hello, I'm with the Muppets and...

Me: Where do I sign?

the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.

if you complain about this poll missing an option you are getting blocked. click the first one and explain in the tags. i only have 12 options and cannot change this after it is published. i tried to include the most substantial, unique cultural identities in the usa. if you are unsure, reference this

The good news: you get to pick your new soulmate! (You can define "soulmate" however you want: platonic/romantic/partners in crime/etc. But they will be in your life, constantly.)

The bad news: you don't get to pick where they come from.

Spin this wheel until you get a fandom with characters that you recognize. As soon as you do, stop. One of those people* is going to be a constant presence in your life, whether you like it or not. So choose wisely.
