not everyone gets to wake up and discover they've SLAMMED someone with a normal opinion. 😱😂

Indie Reign @queermadefinds.bsky.social · 7h

I think it’s a valid question though. some of my favorite characters have been through entire chapters and sometimes whole books of trauma. So like, have they considered therapy?

talk to my favorite characters? and what? risk ruining everything i've imagined about them? absolutely not. 😂 let them keep their secrets. some things are better left to the imagination.

i think sometimes we get so caught up in our own experiences that we forget they aren't necessarily representative of everyone else's. individual experiences matter, but context matters too.

Throwback Thursday but make it vocabulary pt 2 last week i talked about words that give away our age, this week, the word I apparently can't stop using? anyway i use it 2 start a thought, end a thought, change the subject, or escape a conversation 😂 Anyway, what's ur word?

let 2 cars merge in front of me this morning. the guy behind me had some very strong feelings about it. Like he might need a new horn. 😂 sir, it's 2 cars. we're all going to get there. I promise. hope his day gets better.

good morning ☀️ i know i don’t share much about myself around here, but here’s a little something. got an early start this morning and had one of those writing sessions where the words just flowed. until i got to the part that required research. 😂💀 anyway…happy Thursday. ☕️

Marketing Monday 👑💭 think about the last thing u bought from a small business or creator. how did u find them? a repost? recommendation? market? random scroll? saw them 37 times before finally buying? 😂 & why did u choose them? 👀

Indie Reign @queermadefinds.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

yes! I totally agree. it depends on the writing. something i don’t like won’t necessarily turn me away from a genre, & really good writing can make me interested in something i never would’ve picked up otherwise.

& here’s where the web starts webbing these paths aren’t really separate. they cross, overlap & bump into each other all the time someone finds u thru a feed & reposts➡️someone 👀 repost & follows ➡️that person replies & suddenly ur work is in front of new peeps the web keeps building itself. 🕸️💙

I like that! I actually love the research part. But writing about research not so much. It’s usually the part that slows me down…🫠

& this also means, u don’t need every path. a writer, artist, maker + musician might all move through this network differently. there isn’t one “right” way or one fixed path through the web. 🕸️💙

& each path does something different. reposts put ur work in front of someone else’s people. replies put u in new conversations. feeds + starter packs help new people find u. curators are basically going “hey, look at this.” 😂 different paths. different people. same little web getting bigger. 🕸️💙
