Lord, I know I haven't been a good man
Lord, I know I haven't been a good man, but I deserve some sort of reparations for the amount of people who argue with me when I'm not wrong or just repeat my point back at me, badly. Or worse, try to make a joke off my joke but theirs is a parasite that kills the original humour.
In other less pissy news:
Watched Strange World, the 2022 Disney animated movie I never saw advertised anywhere with my friend. We played our game of 'why did Disney bury this movie?' as we watched and found a bunch of examples which spoke well for the movie.
Further, the movie was interesting as it read as the evolution of the sci-fi genre - macho man white grandpa, sensitive but still colonial white son, equity and systemic minded black grandson and The Women Were Also There I Guess (I liked them but they did not get any arcs, which was frustrating but also, I suppose, a sign of the sci-fi metaphor).
Also Splat was like, the Chosen One on his own quest in there. That's my explanation for why he's the only blue one and how he leads to the heroes succeeding in their heroing.

Most of the original fic I have public these days is ghost stories! I'm even preparing some to print off and fold into zines for a zinefest I applied to!

Are they on AO3? Can you put original stories on AO3 at all? I have no idea. A guy in my class once approached me for his horror zine and I made them a cover with a claw raising from the grave and they were so pleased.
And I'm no writer but I liked to make ghostly adventures. I had a boat of novice adventurers stuck in a declining fisher village with a few Roman style villas over winter, with not place to stay but like 6 spooky ruins to investigate. I only finished writing out the old Judge's compound, but I got a lot of use out of that.

They are! Original work is allowed on there, which is a delight because it means sometimes someone goes through my originals and sends me kudos and it's like 'you had no reason to be here but you did and that makes me so happy' (I also post the ghosts to hamsterbandit.com but here's my original stuff if you want to look at the summaries: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Rosencrantz/works?fandom_id=2692 )
That is so neat you made a cover for a zine!
That sounds fantastic. I love anything that lets me explore a ghostly thing. I'm surprised how often World of Warcraft lets me do it - the other day I got to reunite two ghost girlfriends who had been separated for thousands of years. And I keep turning my Pathfinder adventures into Ghostventures.
