No, I don't love em dashes. If it's not important enough to include on a keyboard, I don't care.
I'd be a lot more inclined to consider the "The confederate flag doesn't mean racism anymore, it means southern culture" argument if the flag stayed confined to southern states I just came across a picture of a Ranger with the old battle flag and Colorado license plates. Nah bro you're just racist.
Normally I'm one to really stick with a job long term, but my shortest might be that one time I worked construction for about 2 months. I did it for 3 months in 2015, 2 months in 2016 before just running out of work in September and having to switch to walmart.

"Did you take the time to write xo on every single business card?" I asked. "Just the ones I hand out to pretty ladies." He said. "I should get going, and I will eagerly await your call." He said. He bowed once again before making his way out to his van.

I'm going to take the chance to talk about Nikolai Pashin, I think. He is one of Cassia's love interests. The thing he is committed to is trying to find himself now that he is half a world away from his controlling father, and to write that book his father always said was a waste of time.

Every time I bring up my preference for American pizza, it's never actually the Italians who act shocked. They understand Americans have different preferences and that's to be expected. It's always the Americans who act shocked.
Cori Palladium@coripalladium.bsky.social · yesterdayItalian pizza and American pizza are both good, but for entirely different reasons. Italian pizza is elegant, precise, and maybe a little bit artistic. American pizza is let's see how many calories and dopamine we can fit on a 12' disk of dough. Italian pizza is romance, American pizza is sex.
I'm realizing as I plan out more of the Cassia story that Nikolai's father would have been just the right age to fight in the Russo Ukrainian war.
All empires are, by their nature, fleeting. Yet, their influence seems to endure forever. And the last GMT-800 will only die long after God does.

The Ford Maverick was sent down as proof that the gods have not entirely forsaken us small truck guys.
@audconnelly.bsky.social I'll give you a preview since I finished her line art. I still have coloring, shading, and the entire background to do.
Looks like I need to go outside and use my own truck as an art reference.
When Enya's mother was young, you typically expected to have to make clothes yourself. Enya learned how to do that when she was a kid. By 1929 ready to wear clothes were already common for working class families, so most of her clothes are store bought, made in a factory in Elsol.

"I love the Audi RS 3. And it sounds so amazing." *Cuts to an exhaust note that sounds like an overweight man gargling on his own blood after being shot.*
You do gotta hand it to Tom Clancy for being able to convince an entire generation of conservatives to read a book
I wanted to be a dog but I actually wound up a coyote. Close enough I guess.

I really don't care for 99 to beat. That's way too many people to get emotionally invested in any of them, and the entire thing is just all these background characters doing middle school field day level challenges.

I've been trying for a couple of months now to get a promotion at work. I finally got an interview yesterday so I had the chance to talk about my own past management experience. I think I have a pretty good shot at it, so wish me luck.
