Been a long time but lemme tell you, even if you major in creative writing, taking 18 credit hours of all writing WILL KILL YOU. Don’t do it. Don’t make the mistakes I’ve made. The voice telling you it’s chillin is lying to you.
On a lighter note my icon is now Meliodas — my current obsession has officially switched.

Let it chase us.
Every night the sky is blanketed in darkness, and when the stars bend and sigh right with us
When the street lights shine in your eyes just right, golden benedictions in your gaze and on my lips
Always unspoken.
Do you know? Can you tell?
In dinners with fancy food we can’t afford
In dances bathed in moonlight and silence, the wind in the grass our acoustics,
each breath that sinks into the skin on my neck right behind my ear where you sing is a song of its own
Some kind of blessing, some kind of desire
Always unspoken.
Let it chase us, that one question that sears itself into our minds
Let it battle, let it rage and beg
And when the stars shatter, falling apart and trailing down that dark, perfect surface that is your skin, let it catch us as I trace it with my lips.
Let it chase us
Let it catch us
But God, don’t let it stop us.

HEY ARTISTS!
Do you design a lot of characters living in not-modern eras and you’re tired of combing through google for the perfect outfit references? Well I got good news for you kiddo, this website has you covered! Originally @modmad made a post about it, but her link stopped working and I managed to fix it, so here’s a new post. Basically, this is a costume rental website for plays and stage shows and what not, they have outfits for several different decades from medieval to the 1980s. LOOK AT THIS SELECTION:
OPEN ANY CATEGORY AND OH LORDY–
There’s a lot of really specific stuff in here, I design a lot of 1930s characters for my ask blog and with more chapters on the way for the game it belongs to I’m gonna be designing more, and this website is going to be an invaluable reference. I hope this can be useful to my other fellow artists as well! :)

My first AO3 fic is ATLA Kataang and I think that’s beautiful. What was initially meant to be a 3,000 word quick boy turned into a 13,000 word monster but I’ve edited it so much and had my sisters read over it and at this point it’s ready to be out there, so here y’all go!
Rating: General Audiences
Archive Warning: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Category: F/M
Fandom: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Relationships: Aang/Katara (Avatar); Aang & Sokka (Avatar); Aang & The Gaang (Avatar); Katara & Sokka (Avatar)
Characters: The Gaang (Avatar); Aang (Avatar); Katara (Avatar); Sokka (Avatar); Zuko (Avatar); Toph (Avatar); Suki (Avatar); Ozai (Avatar)
Additional Tags:
Angst and Hurt/Comfort; Fluff and Hurt/Comfort; Emotional Hurt/Comfort; Kataang - Freeform; Angst with a Happy Ending; kataangst; if that isn’t a thing let’s make it a thing; Post-War; Injury; Injury Recovery; Includes References to Comics; Chronic Pain; Electrocution; Kissing; Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder - PTSD; Hurt Aang; Arguing; Aang Needs a Hug
Language: English
Summary:
“You always do this,” Katara whispered. She hoped he could hear the hurt there, riding the waves of her voice.
She hoped he could sense the anger there too, the same that had her clenching her hands into tight fists.
She also hoped he wasn’t looking at her; she didn’t want him to see the tears that were balancing precariously on her lashes.
“I don’t have a choice.” Aang’s voice sounded bitter, a caustic edge she’d rarely heard from him surprising her as it cut into her heart.
——————
Aang doesn’t come out of his fight with Ozai unscathed. He should’ve known he wouldn’t be able to hide it from Katara.
Final Thoughts: give it a read and let me know what you guys think! ((:

Charles Bukowski is a legend series part 4:
some say we should keep personal remorse from the
poem,
stay abstract, and there is some reason in this,
but jezus;
twelve poems gone and I don't keep carbons and you have
my
paintings too, my best ones; its stifling:
are you trying to crush me out like the rest of them?
why didn't you take my money? they usually do
from the sleeping drunken pants sick in the corner.
next time take my left arm or a fifty
but not my poems:
I'm not Shakespeare
but sometime simply
there won't be any more, abstract or otherwise;
there'll always be money and whores and drunkards
down to the last bomb,
but as God said,
crossing his legs,
I see where I have made plenty of poets
but not so very much
poetry.
Charles Bukowski, to the whore who took my poems

Here are just a couple of incredible things about the Hamilton musical now on Disney+:
The EMOTION. The ACTING. The FACES. All the NUANCES.
how Hamilton looks at Eliza right as he leaves before “History Has It’s Eyes on You.”
King George. Everything about him. Just...everything about him. He was LIVING for the drama. “The Reynold’s Pamphlet” was such an exciting time for him. He was so happy. While I was not necessarily happy at that moment, I couldn’t help the spark of joy I felt when I saw him hopping around the stage with glee as Hamilton’s life fell apart. Ah, comic relief at its finest.
The PURENESS of Anthony Ramos as Laurens and Philip. The way you could SEE Hamilton (Lin Manuel-Miranda) in him during “Blow Us All Away.”
Laurens’ Interlude. God, it hurt so bad. Hamilton’s face as Eliza reads the letter, as she tells him its not from Laurens, but from his father? The way Laurens is singing out his passions and his dreams and his hopes feet from Hamilton, the way Hamilton looked as he realized those dreams had died with Laurens. The way he pulled himself together much too quickly for it to be genuine, how he just walked away from Eliza and said that he had so much work to do.
LESLIE ODOM JR. IN “WAIT FOR IT” OML MUST I SAY MORE? HONESTLY HIM IN THE ENTIRE THING, HE DESERVED THAT TONY
The way Eliza looks at Hamilton at the end of “Helpless”... there is just so much LOVE in her eyes and acceptance of him, of who he is and of what he lacks. And just the way she always repeats how she doesn’t need money, or a legacy. Eliza burning the letters, the raw emotion in her voice as she screams out how the world has no right to her heart, to them. And don’t get me STARTED on the way she ran in during “Stay Alive Reprise,” or the way she held Philip as he died, or the way she screamed when he finally did. And in “Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story,” just watching her sing about everything she did, and the way she got so quiet and soft and proud about the orphanage...and then the way she just melted when she saw Hamilton...I believe she is underrated.
“IT’S QUIET UPTOWN.” HAMILTON’S EMOTION. THE WAY HE LEADS ELIZA “AROUND TOWN,” THE WAY YOU CAN SEE THE MOMENT HE BREAKS WHEN ELIZA GRABS HIS HAND AND FINALLY REPLIES WITH “IT’S QUIET UPTOWN” AND THEY SING “FORGIVENESS” BEHIND THEM AND HE JUST BREAKS DOWN. HE WASNT THE ONLY ONE SOBBING I’LL TELL YOU THAT MUCH.
Daveed Diggs. Hilarious. Amazing. So much fabulous attitude. Incredible.
Angelica is such a badass, but her moments of vulnerability are just as amazing. “Satisfied” was everything I hoped it would be, and more. What a powerful woman — actress and the real thing.
The bullet that narrowly flies over Hamilton’s head as he unknowlingly sits over his letters during “Stay Alive” (I think that’s right). So symbolic. So COOL. Who THINKS OF THESE THINGS???
How Hamilton (Lin) continuously mocks other characters. The way he’ll change the tone of his voice and stomp around and make them look like fools. He is just so hilariously petty and childish and knows EXACTLY how to press other people’s buttons (in the best way) and I was LIVING for it.
“Your Obedient Servant.” Basically, “I hate you, go die, love your obedient servant, A. Burr/Ham.” Beautiful.
The CHOREOGRAPHY OF “The Room Where It Happens.” Study it. Worship it.
The scene during Hamilton + Burr’s duel right before they pulled the triggers, as Hamilton considered his death. As he considered his legacy, as he saw all the people he’d lost, as he saw Eliza, and as he let her go, wishing for her to have more time than him. Promising he’d see her on the other side. His last words as he raised the gun, the sheer emotion in his voice and on his face as he said, “Raise a glass to freedom.” What INCREDIBLE writing, stage directing, music, lighting, EVERYTHING. Truly indescribable.
The finale. Everything about it. And I know I already talked about this, but when Eliza and Hamilton are reunited? Now that hits. The way George Washington stepped back in shame when Eliza boldly and proudly proclaimed how she spoke out against slavery? Eliza’s gasp of elation at the very end right before the lights go out, when she’s finally reunited with everyone she’s ever loved, as she knows she did it. She told his story. She used her time in the way he would have. And now, she could rest knowing that.
Thomas Jefferson just shaking his head no over and over when Madison tells him to try to get Hamilton’s endorsement. Exquisite.
“Dear Theodosia.” You could see it in their eyes. Hear it in their voices. It just made Philip’s death all the more crushing.
George Washington and Hamilton’s relationship. QUALITY. “One Last Time.” Q U A L I T Y.
Honestly I know I am missing so much, but there is no need to fret because I will be watching this again tomorrow and then daily for a while (as you do). I am going to pick up so much more and y’all get to hear more about just how incredible Hamilton is. Without a doubt the best thing I’ve ever seen. If you haven’t listened/watched, please please do so. It’ll change your life.
#hamilton#musicals#oh my god#why is lin manuel miranda so talented#HOW is he so talented#at everything he does#why is every actor and everyone who ever had a part in Hamilton so amazingly talented#we are indeed lucky to be alive right now#look around look around

Charles Bukowski is a legend series part 3:
and I look up at the window and think,
I no longer know where you are,
And I walk on and wonder where
the living goes
when it stops.
Charles Bukowski, layover

THIS
T H I S IS IMPORTANT
Charles Bukowski is a legend series part 2:
if it doesn't come bursting out of you
in spite of everything,
don't do it.
unless it comes unasked out of your
heart and your mind and your mouth
and your gut,
don't do it.
if you have to sit for hours
staring at your computer screen
or hunched over your
typewriter
searching for words,
don't do it.
if you're doing it for money or
fame,
don't do it.
if you're doing it because you want
women in your bed,
don't do it.
if you have to sit there and
rewrite it again and again,
don't do it.
if it's hard work just thinking about doing it,
don't do it.
if you're trying to write like somebody
else,
forget about it.
if you have to wait for it to roar out of
you,
then wait patiently.
if it never does roar out of you,
do something else.
if you first have to read it to your wife
or your girlfriend or your boyfriend
or your parents or to anybody at all,
you're not ready.
don't be like so many writers,
don't be like so many thousands of
people who call themselves writers,
don't be dull and boring and
pretentious, don't be consumed with self-
love.
the libraries of the world have
yawned themselves to
sleep
over your kind.
don't add to that.
don't do it.
unless it comes out of
your soul like a rocket,
unless being still would
drive you to madness or
suicide or murder,
don't do it.
unless the sun inside you is
burning your gut,
don't do it.
when it is truly time,
and if you have been chosen,
it will do it by
itself and it will keep on doing it
until you die or it dies in you.
there is no other way.
and there never was.
Charles Bukowski, so you want to be a writer
