Here's to the writers who've lost notebooks with their works, word or Google docs that have been deleted, ambition to write, been plagued by writer's block, and all the troubles with writing. I wish everything you've lost or been plagued with is found and clears away. Only good vibes to other artists.

This year, the global IWCA annual conference is being held in Baltimore—and we were invited! 🤯
IWCA advocates for expansive and evolving definitions of writing centers, literacy, communication, rhetoric, and writing (including a range of language practices and modalities). A value we hold deeply at Boba Studios is that video games are an art, and, as part of this, invaluable methods to share stories as a unique form of communication and writing. 📖🎮💞
We've never been to a conference like this before—especially one so global!—but we're eager to meet fellow writiers and writing advocates and share with them what Story Games are all about! 💪

Have you seen that new Britney Spears video of her "singing" on IG Live today? I'm remembering what you said about her not being mentally okay at all...you may have made a few points to be honest!
Tumblr media
The conservatorship hid a LOT of Britney’s problems that the FreeBritney movement did not want to admit existed. People want to pretend that Britney only has emotional problems that everyday people deal with whether we’re referring to bipolar disorder or depression, etc. 
Most people do not realize or remember that when Britney had her “meltdown” more than a decade ago--where she shaved her head suddenly--that it was rumored Kevin wanted to test her hair for street drugs in the custody battle because she was doing combinations of unknown drugs. It’s long been rumored that she took some combination of drugs that affected her cognitive skills heavily. Basically fried her brain. They weren’t able to figure out what it was. I don’t think most people who clamored for her “freedom” realized that there are multiple rumors of her being found walking around in her neighborhood without clothes on at night while talking to herself. That’s within the last five years, and something the people who got themselves all up in a fuss last summer when audio of her testimony was “leaked” do not realize. 
Spears’s remarks were incendiary but, for people familiar with the creation and the functioning of her conservatorship, not surprising. Andrew Gallery, a photographer who worked for Spears in 2008, attended the hearing, watching the lawyers’ faces on a monitor. “As she spoke, I wanted to scream, and gasp, and shout ‘What the fuck is going on?’ ” he said. “But the lawyers had no reaction. They just sat there.”
That’s from Ronan Farrow’s New Yorker piece earlier this year. The reason the lawyers didn’t have a “reaction” to what Britney was saying is because they’ve heard the same crazy shit out of Britney’s mouth for years. And I really do mean “crazy shit.” 
“God bless her, I felt sorry for her. But at the same time, don’t be telling tall tales,” the member of her team said. “Your problems, what was wrong with you, your shortcomings—don’t keep trying to blame everyone else for it.” The defenders of the conservatorship offer a set of familiar narratives to explain her ire: that Spears is being manipulated by a man—at this moment, according to some, Asghari—with an interest in commandeering her fortune, and that there is a grave medical diagnosis behind the arrangement that the public has no right to know. “It is so fucking irresponsible to say, ‘Let her do whatever she wants to do,’ ” the member of her team said.
I listened to an interview with Ronan Farrow and Jia Tolentino about their New Yorker piece shortly after it was published this year. It was pretty clear to me based on what Ronan said that there are legitimate reasons why Britney was in a conservatorship. Most people behind the scenes who know private medical details can figure it out. However, Ronan and his co writier, Jia, did not do a good job in writing it out for the general public in that piece. If you’ve never dealt with someone with severe cognitive problems, such as dementia, then you would read his piece--as many people did--and come away with the notion that Britney is being “punished” for having a mental illness as tons of fellow Americans have. Or that the conservatorship only exists as a grifting scheme for her family. 
That is not the case, and, after Britney completely spirals out in a catastrophic fashion, Ronan is the type of journalist who will fill in those knowledge gaps with everything he knew prior to Britney’s demise. Things he knew when researching his already published article but didn’t mention. He wrote an article that pumped up the FreeBritney movement, and after Britney has her catastrophic accident, he’ll write about how we could all see it coming because the FreeBritney movement didn’t understand the depth of Britney’s problems. Ronan Farrow used the hoopla surrounding the FreeBritney movement to pump up his own fame and credibility instead of writing a nuanced piece about how Britney has severe problems that do not have an easy fix, as so many of those who celebrated her “freedom” believe. 
So get ready for more of Britney’s crazy. We’ve got several months worth of spiraling downward to go.
