Poetry Time 31: Genius

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, May 7, 2023



Where destiny lies
Off to the horizon light and darkness ties
Genius has already invented our demise
Only angels and flames may defy the skies
Burn my dreams for that new sunrise
Where destiny lies

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Uses Genre Tropes Against You

Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, April 1, 2023



Recently I have been revisiting a sitcom that I used to love but, funnily enough, never finished. The last season of the show dropped during a hectic period of my life and by the time I had, well time, to watch it, I had lost the plot. But thanks to ...

Being Inclusive vs. Being Authentic

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 18, 2023




So for some reason my youtube is being besieged by rant videos over The Little Mermaid live action movie by Disney… AGAIN. You'd think the algorithm would know by now that I only watch ER skits and debunking videos, but here we are.

'Good' People Do Nothing

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 11, 2023

Poetry Time 22: Silhouettes

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, March 5, 2023



Forest branching silhouette
Like teaming black veins on a reddening sunset
Blizzard shedding winter haze
Like dreaming white reins on a deadening snow case
Desert breathing nomad storm
