just a word of thanks and appreciation to all the fic writers out there. you all work so hard.

writing is hard, and i don’t mean that because writer’s block sucks. but writing is a craft and a skill, even if people think it’s easy b/c we learn it as we grow up. and fanfiction writers work hard and hone this skill and produce work using this skill and this craft–for free.

you all do amazing work, every single writer, regardless of if i’ve read your writing or not. you have put in astounding effort. you should be proud of your art. 

there’s a lot of tags going around for x fic or x author, but i want to say that i hope all fanfiction writers take a moment to love their writing. to love the time and work and effort that they put into their writing. the product is lovely, but so is all of your skill and labor.

writing can be thankless. it’s a hard medium to love. it can be an unforgiving medium. but it’s also a beautiful one. it’s hard to learn and it’s hard to work with, but it produces beautiful art.

thank you to every single fanfiction writer. you’ve taken the time and effort to develop a difficult skill to produce art.

thank you.

so in horror movies where flat tires stop people from running away…you can still drive with flat tires. it damages the tires and the wheels, and it’s not safe at high speeds, but you can still drive away from a raving serial killer. pro tip next time a knife wielding lunatic comes at you get in the car, you’ll be fine

well this would have been useful last night

See this is where people make the mistake. If the knife maniac is running straight at your car, SLAM it into reverse. You probably won’t kill them but you might cause some damage. Then drive. They’ll be stopped and you can get away, and maybe they’ll even be at the same spot to call the cops (and maybe the ambulance) on

what a top notch addition to an already excellent post

are we going to ignore the guy who apparently had an encounter with a serial killer last night

they lived to post about it, it’s fine

Impressionist Cityscapes Through Lovers’ Eyes by Leonid Afremov

A professional artist since 1978, American artist Leonid Afremov graduated from the prestigious school Vitebsk Art School, originally founded by classical artist Marc Chagall. Inspired by the work of the latter, Pablo Picasso, Amedeo Modigliani, and Salvador Dalí, Afremov’s work is purely emotional. Every scene is a reflection of his feelings, emotions, passions and anything that feeds his soul. For this reason, he often chooses to cover the beauty of young love, romance, and the grandeur of cityscapes, which often glimmer as brightly as his paintings during the night.

The vibrant and highly saturated colors of Afremov’s work mimic his inspirations, although his technique emulates Camille Pissarro’s and Claude Monet’s impressionist brush and Georges Seurat’s pointillistic style. By combining the soft flare of depicting images and figures with the contrast of pixelated sharp colors, Afremov delivers stunning and stimulating pieces. You can find more of his work in his Etsy shop.
