okay that’s it I hate you all. like… fuckign done. i’ve hit the wall.
…I’m calling the Tumblr Cops to come subdue you
I hate the fact this fucking fits. I’m just about to call it quits. Now everything just sounds like hallelujah.
You pick a phrase, you pick a rhyme, repeat the sound another time, Five iambs, then an extra beat will do ya. Another rhyme, a rising note – congratulations, you just wrote Another goddamn verse to Hallelujah.
the worst thing about brokeback mountain is how they turned it into a joke here was a high profile drama with a-list actors and lgbt protagonists and then everybody just wrote it off and labeled it as “that gay cowboy movie” when they aren’t even gay cowboys they’re bisexual shepherds this is why we can’t have nice things
*pulls up to the fanfic drive-thru window* uh yeah, i’ll take a fake relationship with a side of mutual pining and thinking the other isn’t interested, thanks
sometimes i wish writers could do live streams like artists, but then realize that, even if there were a way to make this not boring as fuck, the act of having other people watch me write would reveal that my writing/plotting/editing techniques are horrific and should not be witnessed by any living human
a normal artist streaming: doo dee doo gonna go through this process in a logical order and show off my skills isn’t this fun?
me, a Word Goblin: and here’s the part where I delete five paragraphs for not making any sense and then start jotting down unrelated plot ideas in an incoherent form of shorthand
Oh! And let us not forget all the weird, embarrassing, and sometimes (incredibly) sketchy things I have to google in the middle of writing a sentence. No one needs to know how long I spent researching the Vietnam draft lottery or trying to find that oneword I know that I know but can’t think of by going through ten layers of thesaurus.com
The only reason no one usually sees my weird google searches while I’m streaming is because I have 2 monitors and the stream is only capturing 1 (one).
…..TWO MONITORS WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT
I’d do a writing stream but people would get like 10 min of writing and then 45 min of my tumblr dash. With about 15 min of thesaurus.com sprinkled in there somewhere.
I mean I actually did this once and like, one person showed up as I was getting ready and then left so I never did it again. I was like. I can write alone and fuck around on Tumblr without also streaming it
I feel like this is something you can only do with really close friends usually who are actually writers. It isn’t streaming, but I do write in googledocs with people using the chat feature, but not a fun showing off way. More like ‘a dear god can you help keep me focused long enough to finish writing this piece’ sort of a way.

so tonight I’m at synagogue, listening to the Purim Night reading of the Book of Esther, like you do
and near the end of this chapter my brain presents me with the following:
nooooo ooooone plots like Haman calls the shots like Haman plans a genocide by casting lots like Haman
(It only works with the Hebrew pronunciation of Haman, which, like Gaston, is accented on the second syllable.)
By the time we get home my brain has added:
for there’s none so well-favored and kingly yes, we all can be certain of that he’s so rich that his pockets are jingly and he looks really sharp in a three-cornered hat
*face in hands*
Petition to sing this every year at Purim.
I shared this with my dad, and he added:
No one’s spruce as Haman, Nor abstruse as Haman; No one’s half as good tying a noose as Haman! He’ll use gallows in all of his decorating! No one else hangs as well as Haman!
niiiiice
i know several people who will definitely appreciate this.
this is beautiful
oh wait
When I was a lad I hatched four dozen plots Every morning, to raise myself high… And now that I’m grown I hatch five dozen plots So all those who oppose me shall die!
