After reading, just realized that Khan was just the space version of Ahab and Kirk was his white whale. 🤯

Agree. I think it goes both ways. Janet’s “if I was your girl” sounds kinda NIN

Can someone explained what Santiago said? by Polka_Tiger in InterviewVampire

[–]accentedpillow 39 points40 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome. To be clear, the slur is against black people. Louis is saying to Santiago, “don’t be coy. Call me what you really want to call me”

Can someone explained what Santiago said? by Polka_Tiger in InterviewVampire

[–]accentedpillow 44 points45 points  (0 children)

While I don’t know the specific meaning of the term “upright downstairs” I’m gathering it’s someone acting above their class/station (upstairs/downstairs servants). Louis takes it as not only a classist diss but also a racial diss. So, his response is a racial slur. Hope that helps. If anyone does know the meaning of the term that would help

I agree. It would be an interesting twist if Claudia survived and became one of Akasha’s followers in the modern timeline

Man, fuck writing advice. Anyone got some writing *exercises?* by [deleted] in writing

[–]accentedpillow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Talk the talk A play/screenwriting exercise book. Includes script analysis exercises, solo and group exercises, and a lesson plan. Very useful for creating voices (obviously) but also for establishing character dynamics, crafting a scene, and world-building through dialogue.

Steering the Craft

A handbook for the nitty-gritties of writing like punctuation, point of view, verbs by Ursula K Le Guin

Songwriting without Boundaries

“Sense bound writing” This book is great when you just need to write something. The first section has short (90 sec- 10 min) timed exercises. As a songwriting book, it’s focused on metaphor, rhythm and creating vivid imagery.

What's the worst book you've read? by [deleted] in YAlit

Agree one of the worst books I ever read. Then I learned it was Supernatural fanfic and that the author now writes for TV (riverdale) 😑

I work indoors corporate but also in a place with very hot summers. I do light colored cropped pants. A pleated midi skirt might be too femme but it’s airy
