Hey #writingcommunity if you’re a fan of X-men, True Blood, Lovecraft Country, Charmed, Buffy, Blade..I’m writing a ton of stuff in black sci-fi/ witchy southern gothic style worlds.

And also love my librarians so much but I wish they wouldn’t suggest this when we try to request a book. I shouldn’t have to collect library cards like infinity stones when I can just wait a few days for it to ship from the next library over. Physical books are never backed up like this

These stink bugs are so annoying. Soon as I doze off outside there go one buzzing round my head. And I swear you pop em and they think you flirting

getting books from libby is more cutthroat then getting a beyonce concert ticket.

They were also black but I believe I was discriminated against for my disability with the way my situation was handled

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

So months after I was let go a coworker of mine was also let go and they got severance and I didn’t. Same role. Both with the company 4+ years. Mmmyeah

I must be a witch bc the way I somehow make people admit things to me that they should take to their grave and never tell a single soul.

Please unfollow me if you don’t wipe your ass. That’s not even a discussion I’m gonna entertain ☹️

Quintessa Knight @quietblkgrl.blacksky.app · 5h

I’m scared to ask this but I recall a point in time where bidets were being advertised as “save money on toilet paper” or “skip the toilet paper” and who tf is not wiping their ass just because they have a bidet 🤨

One of the best parts of a concert is when the artist just stops singing to take in the moment of all the fans singing their lyrics loud as hell and here go these rich weirdos that don’t know a single lyric posting on social media for clout

I know it’s gotta be annoying for singers when the tickets to a show are so high and they’re performing their most popular track to see all the faces in the front row don’t know a single word but have cameras shoved in their face

I've got two words for you: flat earthers. Even people who live in the "real world" don't accept reality, so it's not too important to me that my characters accept everything that is or happens. So far, I haven't intentionally written anyone that way; but I may, whether it's plot-related or not.

Quintessa Knight @quietblkgrl.blacksky.app · 1d

Q25: if you write speculative, how important is it that your character be accepting of the world around them that they’re being introduced to?
