What Israel and the US are doing in real time to Palestinians activate very recent, unhealed trauma around Western violence against Africans, Black Americans, Native Americans, Muslims, and pretty much the entire Global South. But they don’t want us to talk about that.

Today’s writing advice: never be afraid to infodump on the first draft. You’re meant to tell the story as thoroughly as you can. Explain every detail to yourself. You can always spread out during revisions. Don’t be like me who avoided infodumping and is now playing catch-up 😅

A) it was called, among other things, melancholia B) I hope you step on a Lego every night for a year

just think, 100 years ago virtually no one was "depressed" because the notion hadn't come to them, nor the proviso that it was a way of bonding with other people by acknowledging, or seeming to acknowledge, a common weakness kept private/secret by most people, sensibly.
