So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I know, right?

In the current WIP, all 15k of it thus far, which considering I started it last Monday is kind of terrifying, I worry about softening the edges a little too much. I mean, I want it to be clear that it's deeply fucked-up, but the POV is so tightly third limited, and not just that, but a single characters POV for the whole thing, that it's fucking tricky.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Ha, Duchovny's rationale about why he wouldn't have an ethical objection to farming insects,

What I like about insects is they enjoy horrible living conditions and filth, unlike mammals. They do. That’s what they live in. I have no problem with them living in teeming, overcrowded feces-filled environments. That’s where they want to be.

is part and parcel to why I don't want to consider them a food source. I prefer the greater chemical alterations of plants and fungi to stand between poop and me on the food chain.

Website age policing: all I have to do is click on the Continue button and I can read porn and tiger mature-themed stories. Beyond being An annoyance to me, how is this flimsy rule effective in any way?

Speaking of, there's even websites that ask you to put in your birthdate. What stops you from lying?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Unless the parents are paying strict attention to what the kids are doing, the youngsters who want to are going to access porn one way or another, Juliebird. I figure those buttons are there so the websites can say they tried to keep kids out. Also now that I think about it, it might well be that web-nanny services that some parents use to protect their kids from various internet dangers might well use those buttons as some kind of tip-off and be able to block the sites. I'm not really sure how those things work.

ION, I kept coming across references to a show on fic and looked it up. I figured if it was so popular as to be mentioned so much, it surely must be worth checking out.

Yeah, fake show from the official Hawkeye comics. I am sad now.

Dog cops, Juliebird? Because, yeah. I'd watch.
