crybaby bridge is part memoir, part mythology- a story of survival and self-invention. what once haunted lorraine galloway becomes a mirror for resilience, boundaries, and the strange magic of turning pain into story. this is my debut novel; i'm so excited! #indieauthor #booksky #writingcommunity

Graphic with a girl looking up at the words "Crybaby Bridge", standing on a bridge. The background is a rusty brown floral.

Mr. House didn’t survive the apocalypse. He conquered it. Cold, brilliant, impossible to ignore — we wrote a lukewarm defense of one of Fallout’s most ruthless visionaries. It’s not praise. It’s precision. Continue reading: emberand.ink/a-city-a-dre... #mr.house #fallout #article

A glowing hologram of Mr. House from Fallout: New Vegas looms over a post-apocalyptic city skyline with a red, smoky sky. Text at the bottom reads: “A city, a dream, a tyrant: Fallout’s coldest visionary.”

Maybe I’m naive, but I genuinely do not understand why we are all so dang unkind to each other lately? I feel like social media has become a place to just fight, instead of share our experiences with one another. 🙃 Please share something good that happened to you here:

Hey, can we as a fandom maybe not shit on the people who love the world we love so much that they put themselves through hell to get us a final instalment and ending to the story? Like, maybe leave them alone? If you don’t like the game, walk away. Find something else to do. Don’t harass strangers

crowdfund request: i need my phone back on. if you like zines about mental health and getting through this fuckass life, if you donate anything to my ko-fi you'll get a copy of our upcoming zine, too soft to kill, too angry to die. just send in your receipt! ko-fi.com/anachromantic #helpsky

The cover of a zine titled too soft to kill, too angry to die by Violet McCleod, with illustrations by Jeb. The design features muted pastel colors, a cutout of pressed white flowers with taped stems, and whimsical doodles including a butterfly and a speech bubble with cartoonish symbols like “#” and “!!” conveying frustration or emotion. The background includes soft grid paper textures and torn paper edges for a collage-like effect.

how to stay when you don’t want to.

some days the only win is not vanishing.

you don’t get a medal. you don’t get clarity. you just wake up and do it again.
sometimes it feels like punishment. sometimes it feels like inertia.
sometimes it’s both.

staying isn’t brave. it’s crying in your car and going home anyway. it’s dragging your body

through a day you didn’t ask for. it’s saying “i’m fine” because that’s the only version of truth that keeps people from leaving.

you can be bitter. you can hate the world. you can whisper “i’m done” and still decide to breathe.
staying isn’t surrender. it’s the opposite. it’s a refusal.

no one gives you a prize for it. but i see you. and i’m glad you’re still here.

tbh i think a&e just didn't know how to handle the emergence of mainstream online fandom that happened during ouat's run and that's why they veered so hard into unearned fan service. i imagine 2012 was a tough time to be a creator. this is the kindest i will ever be to a&e

... that's not to say I don't want to make things that deal with dark or difficult subjects. I'm doing a lot of that right now. But I'm not trying to Make You Sad because I don't believe that's the only way to make good art and I want people to recognise that as valid.

... crying is so easy for me. Crying is so cheap. I can make you cry, but I will not find merit in your tears. Making a piece of art that brings you joy? That makes you feel happy, at peace, less alone, more loved? That is a herculean effort for me and something I am striving for more and more...

As someone living with a disabling mental illness, I have a lot of Thoughts about the equation of Sad with Good in art. I see people talking about sad stories as being more 'important' than lighthearted ones, I see "it'll make you cry" used as shorthand for "it's excellent art" and I just...

I managed one shot of the cotton candy cumulonimbus before darker, low-level clouds slid into the top of the frame. It was a gorgeous, surreal moment to see rain still falling over the east side of downtown, while fluffy pink clouds and blue sky belied the strength of the storm still in progress

A dramatic thunderstorm looms over the Chicago skyline at sunset. The towering cumulonimbus is lit pink and orange by the setting sun on the left side, with a patch of blue sky peeking through. Meanwhile, darker, ominous clouds dominate the right side of the frame. The city below is partially shrouded in rain, with streetlights glowing in the foreground as twilight sets in.
