Children (under 10 maybe?) usually know that death exists, but aren’t very afraid of it because they don’t understand.

I’d move that down to 7 or 8 – when it comes to not understanding death at all.

My 9-year-old sister has responded to death with some solid understanding of its impact. Last Sunday, she was being difficult about som…[Read more]

Prayers that my family doesn’t move again. My parents want to get my siblings into a private school, but only two schools are considering us, and one of them is too far away for the drive. We would still be in the same area, still going to the same church and all, but I do not want to pack up and get house shocked for the millionth time. E…[Read more]

Darn it, I lost The Game again

@ellette-giselle

It makes my think of Indian Henna art.

Ah yes. XD

@rae He’s a very artistic friend, what can I say? XD He also draws and brings his electric guitar everywhere. (My class is an interesting collection of humans.)

@loopylin Yep!

@keilah-h I got ‘em by making ‘em. Monday class is very long, and doodling on my hand sometimes keeps…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

I haven’t heard of that!

Your censoring is hilarious. 😂

@raxforge @theducktator @elishavet-pidyon @loopylin

XD Oh Andrew, I forgot to tell you it will be a Foreign Cultures study.

Marcel

Hugo brushed himself off and strode briskly away, probably to join his original group. He was, for the most part, unperturbed – aside from looking paler than usual.

“How…“ Marcel shook his confusion off. He rubbe…[Read more]

This is old, but I was looking through my old photos and found this. Not sure if I posted it here. My friend was obsessed with it – he posed me with the “aesthetic flowers” and took the picture. XD

@grcr

😍 Your hard work is well spent. It’s so well put together!! I like how you put the names of the characters next to them. It’s practical but doesn’t feel forced for some reason.

@rae

Literally so true. Those books are fun, but it’s easy to get caught up with them and not learn any useful structure.

@rae

I vote the longer version!

Hugo (Angelo)

Hugo’s nervous laugh turned into a cough, as his sweater vest cut off his throat. Lois and Victor were already out of view. The skeleton student had him by the collar.

Hugo went slack, and held up a hand. “N-Nice to meet you.”

He could almost hear Marcel checking himself, tryin…[Read more]

@loopylin

I really wanna help Dante, but I don’t know how. >:[

@ellette-giselle

I predicted that book would be really good, lol. XD I was talking about it in context with a bunch of books I got recently (I posted about it on the previous page). It’s for the same project that I wanted PTSD research for.

@theducktator

Yeah, they’re still funny. I laughed the first time I saw them. 😅 I just have a lot of mixed feelings about this – amusement, frustration… because I don’t believe people are going to restrain this usage if it’s becoming more successful.

@godlyfantasy12

That’s true, it is an easy way to find prompts for more specific ideas. I have used it a couple times to point me in the direction of psychological conditions. I think A.I. is useful in one strong way, and that is factual information. (Or if you’re asking it for writing prompts, it can give you ideas or outlines which are pop…[Read more]

I know this topic is almost a year old, but I wanted to bring it up again because I’ve seen a rise in A.I. in the past year, and because I’ve been thinking about it recently.

I found out about the Ghibli A.I. trend from my dad yesterday, and at first, it was funny. Now, after researching Miyazaki’s opinions about this sort of thing, I’m…[Read more]

I’m too tired to reply to everyone, but y’all’s art and color choice is super good!

@keilah-h I did mine digitally, so I think it’s fine. Unless Ruth wants to put me in artist jail. 😝

@keilah-h @elishavet-pidyon @ellette-giselle @freed_and_redeemed

I knew it! Afterimage: Film, Trauma, and the Holocaust is a really good read so far.

Yes, yes, this is a late question, so another question will be posted in a few short days. :’]

@raxforge @theducktator

He hadn’t actually called Bird Boy by that nickname out loud had he?

You did, Celarent XD

Marcel

“How come? No flipping idea.” Marcel scoffed, letting out a husky lungful of air. It was best to keep people out of that world. “I’m Marcel.”

“Alias: your judge, jury, and executioner,” a kid teased as he passed.

“Shut i…[Read more]
