sometimes I think I don't know what I would be if I wasn't a writer. if my life wasn't dedicated to inscribing every fleeting second. noting down the lives of other people to give to time. idk who i would be.

writing prompts from ttpd quotes
took a miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary
but I've seen this episode and still loved the show
this ain't the chelsea hotel, we're modern idiots
left all these broken parts // told me I'm better off // but I'm not
down bad, waking up in blood // staring at the sky, come back and pick me up
& I'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free
I learned these people try and save you // 'cause they hate you
scandal does funny things to pride, but brings lovers closer
at the park where we used to sit on childrens' swings // wearing imaginary rings
barricaded in the bathroom with a bottle of wine // well, me and my ghosts, w械 had a hell of a time
love left me like this and I don't want to exist // so take me to Florida
what if the way you hold me is actually what's holy?
I was tame, I was gentle, til the circus life made me mean // don't you worry folks, we took out all her teeth
you wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me
he had a halo of the highest grade // he just hadn't met me yet
dancing phantoms on the terrace // are they second-hand embarrassed // that I can't get out of bed? // 'cause something counterfeit's dead
our field of dreams, engulfed in fire // your arson's match, your somber eyes
you're the loss of my life
breaking down, I hit the floor // all the pieces of me shattering as the crowd was chanting "more!"
'cause once your queen had come // you treat her like an also-ran // you didn't measure up // in any measure of a man
he jokes that it's heroin, but this time with an "e"
it's hell...on...earth...to...be...heeeaaveeenlyyyy
you've got edge, she never did // the future's bright....dazzling

"life is good right now" prompts
running through the rain and friends not shrinking away at a hug
pressed flowers on the windowsill
legs tangled into each other, living quietly in each others' presence
raised brows of acknowledgement in the hallways
curved smiles and side looks
falling into a system without needing to speak
late nights and eager whispers
blasting an album you've tried before, disliked, and now love
late nights and early mornings but with a sense of purpose
talking to strangers over little things you love
seeing your friends do well
talking to an old friend you haven't spoken to in a while
finding conversation where you couldn't before
letting go of feelings and letting whatever comes your away come gently
starting to anticipate things again
starting to feel happy again

the point of art is not to be great but to make it transparently obvious that there is something wrong with you

what if... prompts
they had called beforehand?
they had never fallen for each other?
they met as children?
they had ended up with their ex?
they hadn't given up?
they had gotten in?
they had been the one to blush first?
they had decided to follow?
they weren't too late?
they were part of a larger con?
they had forgotten?
they never meant to return?
they had said "I love you?"
they had died instead?
they had followed their gut?
they had given up?
they had been there first?
they hadn't told the truth?

People used to comment on web comics.
People used to comment on fanfiction.
People used to comment on fanart.
People used to comment on OCs.
I hate "content" culture.
I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.
People used to be excited about the art that other people created.
People used to want to share that excitement with creators.
I hate this future.
