So... this will probably be the only fabled anything I get, but hey... woo me!

I also think that a lot of the most important parts of writing happen at the revision stage. That’s where you figure out the distances between what you thought you were saying, what you actually said, and what you should be saying. And that’s an active thinking process. GenAI can’t do it for you.
Dear Blizz, thanks but I don't really any new fanfic ideas. Much appreciated though! 😂
Cannot recommend Blindspotting enough. The movie too, but that doesn't appear to be on Netflix atm.
That’s today! Watch Blindspotting on Netflix!
I’m scared for us. And I’m scared of us. I keep thinking about survivors — people raped years ago, people raped last night or this morning — watching all of this play out. The betting, the jokes, the doxxing, the memes. There are so many ways to die in America without dying. More everyday.
Okay when did the Lorewalking tomes become readable in our houses?!?!
Did a little decorating! Happy Hallow's End!
OH they rolled out Nomi for Hallow's End?! Why is he being trusted to not burn the candy? And he still doesn't remember me mentoring him in Pandaria...
THE most important achievement in BG3! (not sure why it took one of my 3rd runs to get it--most likely some combo of having speak with animals active and selecting "you both are welcome here". ....yes I said ONE of my 3rd runs, what?)
THE READERS DEMAND MORE OF THIS COMIC!
@gailsimone.bsky.social inspiring a new generation: Daughter and I were talking comics and I told her about Gail's work. She drew this and said she wants to be a comic writer and artist to "tell my own stories" just like "your cool friend* Gail" *she doesn't understand social media
Got my Hearthian fidget ship from @mallonum.shop today and love it!! It springs! It sproings! It clicky presses! And so far has not exploded! 😉 Also love my Nomai scroll keychain!
I like the way WoW treats dragons because yes there are ungodly powerful ones and ones so ancient, and yet there is also a dragon so simply in love with cheese he became a cheesemonger
Me: My job security is tenuous. My job might even be considered illegal depending on the midterms. I should really start cutting back on some of these expenses... Also me: Oh! This person on Patreon has a free-cam mod! I can get even HORNIER shots from my viddy game if I pay them $6.50 a month!
You know, maybe I'll just go sit in the Outer Wilds fandom for a bit. They don't have any dramatic weird-ass or rabid volatile takes. Nice bunch of folks there. Maybe repeatedly [SPOILER] humbles people enough to chill and just Enjoy The Thing. Unless you spoil something... but that's fine.
Outer Wilds

Midnight 12.1.5 SPOILER I was not expecting to start crying in the labyrinth when I heard his voice.
I deserve an award for the poker face I'm maintaining in this zoom meeting right now after seeing this...
Always wet! No Survivors!
That particular cult is not even there to play. They are there to torment other players. They will do it on PvP, PvE and if somehow forced off of those, even go to RP to get their fix ruining it for everyone else. I do hope some solution is found soon though. I was enjoying the beta!
Wrote about WoW: Forever's streamer problem. I will say Blizzard is making some serious headway on the RMT issue. As for how to handle the other stuff, well, maybe more than one PvP server would be cool?
OH, yeah, story mode is available out the gate too! I was very happy to see that!
Finished 12.1.5's storyline. Upset but not because I have problems w/ it. The Inevitable Discourse™️ will be some combo of too much war/peace, too much/little of a cost, Blizz favors blah blah over blah blah etc. etc. IOW, the usual. Fandom gonna fandom. Don't care. I cried. I was moved. The End.

As a senior at SVA, Arisman's weekly lectures had a huge impact on me. And not just the part where he showed us how easy it was to make something look like it was made of metal and convince others it took forever! That man could tell a story! I left each lecture gobsmacked.
Marshall Arisman was born on this date in 1938 and I remember his work for Omni Magazine vividly. "The fine art world stigmatizes people for illustrating [...] Every gallery tells me to quit illustration" Witness, oil on canvas, 1981, Smithsonian American Art Museum:
Finally, after 3 years my monitors are exactly as I want them. I'll spare you from the saga, but right now I'm very much enjoying having my monitors at the same height. Okay one is about a cm lower and it's not bugging me. No, really! I can fix it... I just don't want to [eye twitch]
Anyway, due to a bug that prevents me from progressing in the questline... I'm going to curl up with a book. It was going fine until then!
I've thankfully avoided spoilers for this patch. Going to go in and enjoy the new storyline before I read something I don't want to.

Holy shit I needed this after the 5th video banking on this drama was suggested to me today. 🤣
My fav Astarion Book Discourse take so far is the one where Neil Newbon sat at cons & explained how this is the guy before he meets the player character and your agency helps change him as a person because he actually hates the book and was making subtle facial gestures to secretly warn real fans
So, there's this boulder up on platform that I've noted in two playthroughs before, but never messed with and then quickly forgot about given its location. After having an RP moment of, "would he? ...oh yeah, he would..." Shockingly no one actually died. Gale managed to survive with 8hp.
Anthony Comstock: Morality crusader. Professional hater. Dildo hoarder. He collected porn, sex toys, and books. And he showed them to Congress to sell lawmakers on the Comstock Act, an 1873 law which conservatives could use to ban abortion nationwide. New Baby Boom! Lawyered Out now.
