I don't always run prompt contest, but when I do, I save the old prompts from "Journalistic Intentions" [18+] } for anyone that might have missed out. Feel free to use these prompts however you wish!

Lyrics

"If I learn one lesson,
count your blessings,
look to the rising sun,
and run run run."

"I'll be right here just waiting underground."

"Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle."

"It's the power that gives you the strength to survive."

Movies

"It was worse than Detroit."

"Remember what the MPAA says; Horrific, Deplorable violence is okay, as long as people don't say any naughty woids! That's what this war is all about!"

"Man is as silent as the grave. But if farts were flattery? Honey, he'd be Shakespeare."

"Oh would you just shut up? You're rats with wings!"

Articles

"The process of racial triangulation—of which the MMM [model minority myth] is a prime example—essentially places Asian Americans in a racial bind between whites and other people of color."

"And it hit me, that to me, those are two of my deepest-felt emotions. Justice, equality, fairness, mercy, longsuffering, Work, Passion, knowledge, and above all else, Truth. Those are my primary emotions."

“I think I would have been much happier being an actual scientist.”

"Most of all, you feel unseen and unheard. The other person is demonstrating that there are two things more important than your pain:
Their desire to avoid negative emotions
Their need to offer unsolicited advice."

Grab Bag

"Trauma does not make you stronger. Trauma makes you traumatized. The end."

"If you can't handle me at my worst, imagine how I feel."

"And all those friends that were such a chore
You're gonna need 'em more than ever before"

"Mister, I was born for it."

"It is important to start socializing the idea of reforms now—sometimes they are upon us quicker than we think."

"Sure, when teenage girls write self-insert characters that hang out with their faves it's 'cringey' and 'bad fanfiction', but when Dante does it it's a 'literary classic' and 'redefines the way we view Catholicism'."
