That might actually make more sense, since MLP seems to be more of a thing in the UK than baseball, although still unlikely. But, unfortunately it wasn't to be

Walked past a cafe with MLB playing on the TV, I didn't know cafes had TVs or an interest in baseball

*shudders* sorry babe, I was thinking about a fucked up disgusting little worm. It would be impossible for me to love anyone if they were turned into one of THOSE. What were you going to ask me?

Starting at 2010 makes sense, it's kinda interesting we're like, a quarter of the way through the century and it still feels weird dropping the 20 in English

Patch Awful @patchawful.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I wonder at what point in a century it becomes acceptable to shorten a year to the last 2 digits. In the 90s people always doing it, now it just feels weird to say 26 or 16 without the 20 in front

I presume the text, also, is ai, but unlike the header image I would actually need to open it up and read it to find out, and the problem is, I'm not doing that

Tumblr's ad game is truly unmatched. I open it for the first time in months and am immediately met by a sponsored post that's a chapter of a long running fic involving anthropomorphic dinosaurs involved in Real Housewives style shenanigans complete with AI art. You just can't get that anywhere else

Thoughts I get when I'm knee deep in editing my own work and violently oscillating between 'oh god I'm no Siegfried Sassoon' and 'oh hey I'm actually funny'

I'm not a literary writer by any means, but I'm passable in my own field of genre fiction. I'm good at raising tension and the dry humour amuses myself at least.

Patch Awful @patchawful.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I really do think the key to succeeding as any kind of creative is in recognising what you personally are good at and how it serves what you're trying to do. It's easy to fall into a trap of comparing your work unfavorably to the greats, but everyone brings their own flavour to the mix

It's been like a year since I interacted with an active modding community for a game, and at this point I'm terrified what the situation there is

The dominant pop cultural force of the time is the fact that there is no longer a dominant pop culture. There's no longer a TV show everyone watches or a song everyone hears (where do we watch it? Hear it?). Which is fine for pop culture, but has downstream repercussions when we get to eg news

See, now that's probably an even better plan

Patch Awful @patchawful.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

A very good exercise when coming across some nonsense on bsky, is writing your own post on it to blow off steam, and then just saving it to the drafts instead of posting it. Only pull the trigger later if it becomes recurring nonsense and not just one post by one person.

Not that I'd ever say writing for kids doesn't require technical quality, but in this case specifically, I didn't remember there being so many plot contrivances

Patch Awful @patchawful.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

There's something very odd in returning to one of the things that first inspired you to write when you were a kid, and realising how much you as a writer today has outgrown it Like, not unexpected as I'm not writing for kids, but still an odd feeling

The great thing about the modern internet is that if you find a particular meme annoying, you just have to wait a couple of weeks and nobody will remember it

Didn't Star Wars already announce like a dozen movies that didn't get made? I feel there was a point where they were promising trilogies to anyone who walked in off the street

As someone said when this too is yuri became the go to meme, 'I get where they're coming from but it's interesting that everything is yuri except two women in a relationship'

Patch Awful @patchawful.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

The wider issue in yuri is just, irreconcilable expectations. It's become defined by narrative conventions that produce very powerful storytelling, but these originated from an unwillingness to address the issue head on and it's frustrating when it can't move beyond that.

Every so often I remember the Marvel Mangaverse version of Captain America, and how she seems to be clearly modeled after Yukari from Azumanga Daioh. *Why* did they do this? It confounds me.
