How Are These Not Getting Flagged??? /end SaRcAsM Font/

Welcome to the void, Nicolas!

Nic reporting in!

Hi folks,

I’m Nic, and new to the writing community here on Tumblr - Writeblr is, I believe, the correct term. I’m a game writer by profession and the few people who know me do so because of “Enderal,” a Skyrim Total Conversion which I wrote the story for and directed. Most recently, I’ve launched a web novel called “Dreams of the Dying” that centers around Jespar Dal’Varek, one of the game’s protagonists. I update it weekly on my Patreon (www.patreon.com/niseam) and my new WattPad (www.wattpad.com/user/Niseam).

I’m mainly here to connect to other people and follow some artists I’ve been following anonymously for a while now (a huge, heartfelt thanks to the Vyn/Enderal/Jespar-bloggers out there, I’ve been stalking you for years). I won’t lie, I’m pretty new to all this and am still trying to find my way around, so I appreciate any help. I’m also looking forward to sharing opinions about the craft with fellow writers.

What do I write? Most of my stuff deals with societal, philosophical or psychological topics. All my published works so far could be classified as fantasy, though I lean towards psychological horror and mystery. I believe that good characters are king and value authenticity above all else. To quote my (somewhat dramatic) Patreon intro:

“I love stories that entertain, stories that are genuine, and stories that have an impact. While each of these aspects makes a story enjoyable to me, it’s the stories that accomplish all three I remember the most. That’s what I want my stories to do: Draw you in, make you laugh, crawl under your skin, shake you up, and leave you thinking.”

That’s a lot for a first post, so I’ll leave it at that. Thanks for reading! :)

i’ve said it before but honestly i just

i love reptile hobby memes look at this shit

I was about 4 and said to my dad, "Screw you!" He wheeled on me with ferocity unforeseen and I couldn't figure out why...I thought it meant using a screwdriver. I mean, he said it all the time; what else could he have been talking about?

story time: i taught my little cousin her first longer word when she was very young. i taught her to say “tax benefits”. and to this day my aunt still doesn’t know where she got it from, but it was a hilarious sight to see a little toddler waddling around the house, wearing a big diaper, all the while yelling “TAX BENEFITS!!!!”

The FCC will soon vote to kill net neutrality. But Congress can stop them if they hear from constituents now.

Yesterday afternoon the House subcommittee that provides Congressional oversight for the FCC held an important hearing about the agency’s current plans, including current Chairman (and former Verizon lawyer) Ajit Pai’s move to gut Title II net neutrality protections that prevent ISPs from controlling what we do online with throttling, censorship, and extra fees.

With Capitol Hill’s attention now on the FCC, and Pai’s final plan to gut net neutrality protections expected in the coming weeks, it’s extra important that Congress gets flooded with phone calls from Internet users telling them to stand up and defend the open Internet.

We’re also hearing there are key members of Congress considering whether to step in and force Pai to slow down. This means best chance to stop the FCC from breaking the fundamental principle that makes the Internet awesome is to pound Congress with phone calls right now.

You can call your reps easily with just one click here: battleforthenet.com

You’ll see a script on your screen, or you can say something like this:

“I support Title Two net neutrality rules and I urge you to oppose the FCC’s plan to repeal them. Specifically, I’d like you to contact the FCC Chairman and demand he abandon his current plan.”

You can also just call this number directly and enter your zipcode to get connected to your legislators: 202-930-8550.

If you run a website, blog, tumblr, or forum, help spread the word by putting up a sticky post, or use one of these widgets, ads, or banners: https://www.battleforthenet.com/#join

Ajit Pai is expected to circulate the text of his rule killing net neutrality on November 22, the day before Thanksgiving. Once that happens, it will move to a vote at the FCC’s open meeting in December, and it will become much much harder to stop him.

It’s clear that the FCC remains set on killing net neutrality. But Congress can stop the FCC from gutting the rules that keep the web open, affordable, and awesome.
