Scheherazade stay with me when I’ve nothing left to give, when my engine’s running empty and I hate the way I live, Antigone abandoned me the day I wouldn’t die So Scheherazade stay with me won’t you teach me how to lie.  Scheherazade don’t leave me here, not when I need you most, when there’s armies all around me and no weapons at my post.  Oh won’t you save your sister with the graveclothes you still weave? I’ll turn the tale and tell it ‘til there’s nothing left to grieve.  Scheherazade, you taught me well, loose tongue and empty hands, how to lose a world each evening, how to twist a crimson strand, how to watch for scattered shadows, how to summon them at will ‘til the ceiling’s painted brightly and my lungs are rising still.  By God by hand by sword and fist, by broken minds, by precipice, by wolves that found the bodies first by all the things that could be worse by nights alone and witching stones by damp lambswool and dancing bones, by dark and star and sweeping gale, by myth and rift and fairytale - The bedroom’s full of stories piled up against the wall and I’d drag them all down with me if I thought they'd break my fall. Scheherazade, you laughed, I think, when dignity expired, for no one trusts an oracle, but all may trust a liar. 
By God by hand by sword and fist, by broken minds, by precipice, by wolves that found the bodies first by all the things that could be worse.

I have a little notebook with poetry I like; would you give me permission to write this down there? If yes, how would I sign the author? Is there a name for the poetry?

the "came back wrong" trope except like... they didnt. like this mad scientists wife died, and so he studied necromancy, brought her back, and she came back and it all worked. like she came back exactly the same as she was before with literally no difference. but the scientist guy is like "oh no... what have i done.... shes Different now!!!! she came back Wrong!!!!" and shes just like. chilling. reading a book. cooking dinner. shes just so so normal but in the guys mind hes like "oh shes soooo weird" but shes just normal

While she was dead he put his memory of her on such a high pedestal that she could never live up to it alive

alternatively‚ she came back perfectly fine but he thinks she came back wrong‚ because the tragic reality is that he never actually knew his wife

im going INSANE thats MY POST.

It's your post but the journey to posting it changed it to such a degree that even its closest intimacies are now foreign to you. Sorry dude.

i hate when people call marcille a girlfailure btw like SHE ISNT. and shes not a ”girlboss” either. this is a neurotic and Permanently On The Edge of a Breakdown overachiever late 20s virgin just out of her phd program with permanently shaky hands from an addiction to overly sugary coffee and a deep desire to be crushed to death under falins giant jugs no matter the cost. the only thing shes ever ”failed” at is going to theraphy

gonna start running all of my posts through several layers of google translate just to keep the boys guessing

I will start running all my posts with different google translation levels to make kids guess

I’m going to start posting all of my posts in the step of transferring the kids, Google can guess.

Google can think that I will start publishing all my posts during the child replacement phase.

this may just be me going into overanalysis mode but i feel like the choreography of spellcasting can tell you so much about a magic user. a snap of the fingers, for example, implies confidence, even arrogance, while hands thrust out and straining to the fingertips suggests desperation, throwing one's whole body into the spell as though hoping the physical effort will make a difference. rapid, jerky body language tells you that a spellcaster is passionate and reckless, while graceful, fluid movements demonstrate calm and concentration. some magic users may choose to stomp their feet or clap their hands when casting, channeling power through percussive motion, whilst others may see magic as a tool separate from the self, and focus is through objects like a wand or staff. a new spellcaster just coming into their power may be tentative and slow, but a practiced study of magic will be able to rely on muscle memory to guide them.

One of the few actors I've seen go out of their way to credit their stunt actors by name in an interview is Keanu Reeves, who makes sure that Jackson Spidell gets his stars whenever he does press.

Thing is, Keanu does all his own action. But Chad does all his stunts. And when Keanu was asked to explain the difference, he was like, "oh, I'll fight ten guys and pretend to shoot a gun and run around and do some acting... And then Jack will get by a car. And then I'll stand up, and do some running and shooting, and then Jack will jump off of a building. And then I'll get up and do some more running."

Funniest way to break down action and stunts, and also really cool to actually credit his stuntman that's been bringing the character to life alongside him.
