The Creative Process meme: a cartoon style, hand-drawn graph on a white background. It's a bar graph showing the various stages of the creative process. To the very left of the bar the words 'Work begins' are posted in black text. Most of the bar is red and labelled 'Fuck Off'. A small part is yellow and labelled 'Panic'. An even smaller part is green and labelled 'All the work while crying' and to the very right is the word 'Deadline' in blue. Arrows point to each section of the bar graph from the labels.

This is such a disingenuous headline There were 10000 applications for a mere 2000 places The majority of these applicants were eligible You're making it sound like 4 out of 5 were rejected because they were ineligible And 1250 people have not yet been notified

i'd call it "Scones 'n' Things", the "things" being whatever you didn't even know you needed and the scones being, well, scones

For the folks who still insist that all people in power want is more money. They’re cutting off one of their highest-selling authors for opposing a genocide. They’ll always have enough money. What they want is total control over public cultural life.

gentle ambient music, plants, sun catchers, soft chairs, tactile mugs, blankies if you need one, nice cookies, muted colours on the walls, books people pick up and set down, maybe a toy box for the kiddos idk but there's something here that you need so come on in and take the weight off

dogs/cats/service animals welcome, kiddos/babies welcome, artists, lost souls, people who are cold and just need a cup of tea, people just passing through on their way to do a hard thing, people who just want to take five minutes out of a life that has gone off the rails, people in love all welcome

fuck it we're baking
A tray of freshly baked brownies sit on a wire rack on a wooden counter. 11 scones sit next to it on another wire tray. There were 18 scones but I gave some away and ate some. Deal with it, you're not my mam. Next to the delicious baked goods, there's a Instapot and an air fryer. A window sits behind although you can't see out from this angle. On the windowsill, a net cover to keep the flies off the baked goods.

Some context for colleagues outside Ireland: over 300,000 people are on strike today. That's over 11 per cent of *all* people working in the state.

The same photo of the shirt in the post above, but I've photoshopped Marina's head to make it look like she's wearing the shirt.

(the shirt is for me, not my dog)
A boxy white waffle fabric shirt with short sleeves sitting on a white background. It's got a collar. But the best thing about it is that the closure in the middle has three dogs  embroidered down it. The top dog is barking, the middle dog's ear is flying out from its head, and the bottom dog is sitting on its hind legs. This is the best shirt I've ever seen.

I'm dying laughing at how the cat has conformed to her flower shaped bed today
A white cat is sleeping curled up in a med that has five fluffy white lobes of a flower petal, the cat has half her face peeking upwards and otherwise has filled the pentagonal space in the center of the bed completely

I was listening to a horror podcast where a (male) host was interviewing a (male) writer and they mentioned a bunch of movies and books. Can you guess what they had in common? All written and directed by men. They also named many, many horror writers and you'll NEVER GUESS what they had in common.
