    "Optimally? I believe we'll be ready to pop it open in the evening." She took another long sip of water, observing some of the crew setting up portable spotlights around the dune, before elaborating on method. "We can remove the hatch and cover the doorway with a tarp. As soon as the sun hits...

    Ann Caroline Tickwittee's body was jerked about as the white, grain-streaked Land Rover traversed the yielding sands, hopping and skittling across loose rocks and swooping over and through the swells of sand dunes. The Sahara desert's Great Eastern Erg, situated in eastern Algeria, had a barren...

    Co-Written Anntropy

    [Written with @Ivy.] Ann fondled her keychain as she glided past the dingy hobo sitting on a bench outside the company’s headquarters. A greasy black cat sauntered up to her, tail weaving a pattern in the brisk air. The young woman quickly kicked up her heel and glided on a little quicker on...

    Q & A Your Character's Favorite Food(s), and how come?

    Goat cheese is proper. It has been a staple dairy food of Eastern Europeans, Western Asians, and Arabians for millennia. The Old World knew best. *munches voraciously on pork rinds*

    Why did we decide creativity requires escaping from something? Why do so many of our metaphors for creativity imply that ordinary thinking is a restriction?
    Quote Link
  • Victorique Victorique:
    It's because it hinges on the idea that everyone wants to be ordinary (aka "normal") and that being anything other should be punishable socially. It stems from imperial modes of thinking that harm people not white-cis-straight-abled-perisex-etc because the idea of normal is centred on "some guy"-isms
