i dunno i tried a couple of times before but tended to give up 50000 words in. when i'm no longer an idiot child maybe
Well actually from what I've seen lately you definitely are able to write. ive loved some of your stuff. Maybe you've juts got a lot better since then? But ive read your short stories and thought "this is a dude id like to read more from." dont force out some shity novel but if you ever get the inspiration to do it i'd rly like to see what you can do. also if im being a lameass i DONT apologize, im fucking drunk!

yeah that thing was really bad lol. i think there might still be something in the concept but the execution was Awful lmao & that was my last attempt at a novel really... i tried to do another last february and gave up like 5000 words in... basically i'm holding off trying to write anything long form until im really assured in my writing and get at least some short stories published first because otherwise i'll just end up as one of those swivel-eyed weirdos who locks themselves in a trailer trying to write the Great Novel of Our Times and ends up producing hundreds of pages of dragons and nonsense released typos and all exclusively on kindle
deadken posted:now i've finished my dumbass dissertation i might write this thing, its a modern retelling of the love affair between soren kierkegaard and regine olsen in which the genders are swapped round (catchphrase)
looking forward to your gender-swap fan-fic

deadken posted:my blog post on orwell is doing the rounds on the leftist tumblr network so i checked out maggotmaster's tumblr and he's still going into apoplexies and "calling out" transphobes and policing discourse as if any of this sisyphean bullshit actually matters and it actually made me feel kinda warm and nostalgic lol
i just looked it up, thats a good post. i had someone tell me recently that "property is theft" is doublethink o_O. if a writer can be that easily co-opted then how useful could their books possibly be?
If you think that “tumblr is largely irrelevant as a tool for political praxis” means we shouldn’t call out transphobes you’re a pretty big moron because transphobes should be called out regardless of what the social group is.
maggotmaster's tumblr still endlessly fascinates me because i think this whole focus on 'calling out' basically has its origin in helldump where you would be called out for owning twelve katanas and a leather trenchcoat and wanting to sleep with your sister but it's been reappropriated into a social justice discourse where it's still held to be really important without considering what its actual function and utility is and despite the fact that unlike helldump it's never really funny or even diverting and maggotmaster's entire tumblr is literally just him unthinkingly engaging in the fruitless ritual of 'calling out' occasionally interspersed with frames from animes
please keep in mind that when most of us talk about tankies we are referring to the group of people who obsessively call themselves that, aka, tank club, or rhizzone lite: mal, prop d, yugiohmishima, vpartyintheusa, laredaction, ultraleftist, drdogballs, etc. They’re all transphobic dinguses and weird catholic fetishists who really don’t get communism at all.
we should recruit these tank club guys lmao. especially drdogballs
