Gotta say, the trend of “Politicians play video games” AOC began started off strong, but it really should have stopped when Mitch McConnell started getting into Doki Doki Literature Club.
with why my adderall was having such uneven effects and varying efficacy
and the weird pattern of what made it work and not work and if it was building up in my system or not
and fucking nobody told me I shouldn’t drink a glass of Kool-Aid to take the pills with
or eat fucking Pop-Tarts or Life cereal
this is the most useful information I have ever received from tubr and it seems to be confirmed by several other places upon searching
so this actually should be spread like wildfire like actually
Me reading this realizing tunglr dawt kom gave me more information about my medication than MYDOCTORRRRRSSSSSS MYYYYYYYY FUCKENNNNN DOCTORSSSSS PLURAL MULTIPLE DOCTORSSSSSSSS
Reblogging to spread this ridiculously important info
Generally speaking, your doctors actually may not know these things. This is the kind of stuff to ask your pharmacist about.
how do i decide if i want to write in first or third person
First Person
Advantages:
You get to know one character quickly and effectively
Builds attachment
Simpler
Let’s you cheat at info dumps
Epistolary stories are an option (journal style like The Martian or Dracula where everything takes place in letters or blogs)
Limitations:
Tougher to distinguish between viewpoint characters with each one you add
Untrustworthy narrator
Hard to be epic in scope
Gives away that the protagonist lives
If your audience doesn’t like the voice of your main character it will be a horrible experience for them
You don’t get the advantages of third person
Third Person
Advantages:
Large casts work better than in First Person
Sometimes better for scene/setting of immediate nature
Epic scope
Best for hiding things from the reader (except for omniscient)
More viewpoint freedom
Easier to off characters
Shows inherent discord (conflicted thoughts and dialogue)
More immersive (for some)
Easier to forgive characters of their mistakes
Limitations:
Can’t cheat on info dumps
Don’t get the advantages of First Person
These are from my notes on Brandon Sanderson’s lectures. I highly recommend them to anyone interested, I believe he is posting the most recent semester on his YouTube once a week.
This is an excellent break down. Thank you! Makes it much clearer to decide what the story needs.
weirdest thing Slovakia has to offer is just lard?
This map is driving me insane. It literally sounds like someone who
just can’t deal with animal meat that isn’t steak? Also head cheese is
not a dutch thing? Its a food that has been discovered independently by a
lot of different cultures all over the world. “Raw Sea Urchins” from Sicily? Guaranteed anyone who grew up close to the mediteranean sea and swam in there as a kid has grabbed a sea urchin from the sea and opened it up with a rock and eaten the eggs inside. Its fucking delicious, how is it a culinary “Horror”? And how the fuck are you mean to eat them if not Raw? Deep fried? Lmao.
This map feels like it was made by a white American suburbanite who faints at the idea of eating a chicken liver.
