Getting a lot of mileage lately out of saying “I hope they turn into a newt/I’m going to turn them into a newt” instead of I hope they die/I’m going to kill them. Same effect in terms of expressing your desire that the subject will never meaningfully affect your life again, cannot possibly be construed as a serious death threat. As a bonus it makes you sound like a witch. Flawless lexicographical substitution imho.

Cannot even be considered permanent harm. Many people get better.

thank you. I’m cursing everybody out who blames one fucking party of the equation.

Yeah I’m gonna go further. “Men have been abusing their power and coercing and sexually harassing women” or something in that realm.

A “sexual favor” sounds like helping out a friend or some shit, like come on

u know someone’s about to get dragged through the mud when an academic uses the phrase ‘it’s tempting to assume’

“it’s tempting to assume” is academic speaking for “you might think, if you’re a fucking idiot,”

they should make a meal that appears whenever you want to eat it and it doesn’t take effort to make and is nutritious and filling and it never goes bad if you leave it in your fridge for a long time and never gets too dry or soggy or otherwise textureweird if you eat slowly and when you’re done it automatically cleans off the plate so you don’t have to do the dishes and also it should be free

valeriehalla:

(a realization about dialogue formatting, from a comic artist turned novelist.)

One of the first things a novice writer learns about speech tags is that they’re part of the “scaffolding” of prose. They should be largely invisible to the reader: use them when necessary, omit them when not, and be sparing in the application of verbs other than “said”. They serve only the function of clarifying who is speaking when it is necessary to do so.

Except:

Sometimes you might want to use a speech tag in spite of the redundancy. The fact that the reader’s eyes slide right over them is an exploitable property. By slicing a line of dialogue in half with a speech tag, you can force the reader to perceive a meaningful pause between two utterances—and the effect is much stronger than you might get out of an ellipsis or an em dash. Developing an intuition for when and how to do this is a huge part of learning to write dialogue, I think.

(And yes: if you ever wondered, this is exactly same the reason why comic artists sometimes “double bubble” their speech bubbles. Same end, different means!)

The funniest thing about this situation is that Elon Musk is so pissed off at not getting to do something illegal and get away with it by being a billionaire for once in his life that he has been -and I’m 100% serious here- making photo edits of our Supreme Court minister dressed as fucking Voldemort. Literal little kid taping a picture of someone they don’t like to a dartboard kind of behavior.

Brazilian Supreme Court: Hey, uh. Just letting you know that what you’re doing is a crass violation of Brazilian law and if you don’t remedy it on the next 24h we’ll shut your website down in Brazil.

Elon Musk:

Sorry, I just looked it up and it turns out I got it slightly wrong: Elon Musk didn’t photoshop a picture of Alexandre de Moraes, the Brazilian Supreme Court minister into Voldemort. Pretty silly of me to think someone like him would put in the effort to actually edit a picture himself.

What ACTUALLY happened was that Elon Musk first compared Alexandre de Moraes to Voldemort, then posted an Al generated image of him behind bars and told him to “mark his words because it’ll happen for real someday”, then posted another Al generated picture of him as a roll of toilet paper and then, finally, posted a picture of him photoshopped into a Sith Lord that he claimed had been generated by that shitty Grok Al thing they came up with, just to eventually admit that it was actually some random edit someone else had made he took from Google Images because “Al made him look too badass”. In this order.

Forever grateful I’ve never even heard of Elon Musk before he started making headlines for being a huge dipshit. Imagine the whiplash someone who has only ever heard that he creates rockets and has an IQ of 1000000 must get when looking him up on social media and realizing that he’s actually just an ultra mega rich guy who has had his ass kissed into thinking he’s special his whole life and ended up with the emotional maturity of the average 5th grader at 53.
