when people use the term "torture porn" are they strictly referring to movies with graphic violence? or is the act of (gratuitous) torture suffice? because I've watched WHIPLASH probably 5 times now, and in this essay I will

We are officially re-open. The internet has returned. Come shop until you drop. To be clear: you must finish paying before dropping. We have no interest in going through the pockets of a dropped person. We do not have the proper license for that.

Sometimes I think I’m in a private chat and realize 5 minutes later I’ve just posted a novelette of problematic material in a public thread in my own discord, and frantically scrub it clean like it’s a crime scene.

Surely I'm not the only one thinking, by golly, there sure are a lot of horror industry folks with birthdays in July. This morning I did the mental math and realized they would've most likely been conceived in October, and now everything makes sense.

Two things I like to think about: Charlie Kaufman pacing around trying to talk himself out of the idea he had for ADAPTATION, and Susan Orlean reading the ADAPTATION screenplay for the first time.

Last year I got angry with my older brother for making up a story about his son having an inoperable brain tumor, and as retaliation for calling him out he spent a week straight every night drunkenly ranting to my elderly father that he planned to create a series of YT videos ruining my career,

It makes me sad when people misgender a nonbinary character and assign binary pronouns that I specifically avoided giving them in a story. Getting stories published with characters who have They/Them pronouns isn't easy. If I've taken that risk as a writer, your respect (or disrespect) means a lot.
