i loved miley’s reaction so i made this vid
nicki is one of, if not the most talented, ruthless ass motherfucker in the western music scene right now and the fact that she doesn’t take bullcrap from privileged white artists or biased award shows is honestly unheard of and inspiring. i am so here for her standing up for herself and other woc who are constantly getting snubbed in the entertainment industry, it’s people like her who should be commended for speaking out on the fact that people of colour deserve to receive every opportunity a privileged white artist is handed. she may have been screwed over by the vmas but her efforts on social media have made her a winner in my heart.
Nicki that fucking drag though!!!!!!!!
“If there’s two things I’m down with, it’s hating tomatoes and sickness.”
writers of the world: please stop using epithets in your writing, trust me “the blonde army doctor”, “the curly haired detective”, “the blue-eyed man” etc. do not sound as good in writing as they may sound in your head
instead, use the characters’ names, they’re there for a reason and it’ll make your writing much more crisp, tight, to the point, and still entertaining
Names, along with common words like “said” and “asked”, become invisible. The more invisible your words, the deeper your reader will fall into your writing, to the point where the reader will forget that there are words at all and just become part of the story.
When your words aren’t invisible, there’s the unfortunate potential that people will turn them into a drinking game instead of reading the story.
Just about the only time that epithets work instead of using a name is when the POV character doesn’t know the other character, and so the physical description is pretty much all the POV character has to go on. You don’t think of people you know as “the tall man” or “the blonde woman”. Your POV character shouldn’t, either.
Yo I actually wanted to make this post a while back and I think a lot of this stems from when you have two characters who use the same pronouns interacting (which happens in fanfic). There’s this fear that the reader will confuse who the characters are referring to, so that’s why epithets are used. Instead of using epithets, use syntax, which is word order, and carry your subject through multiple sentences and actions. So, Imma teach you how to do this under the cut. (It’s a bit of a grammar lesson tbh)
