Oh THIS movie? You can stream it with a 7-day free trial of Klormbo! That movie? Oh, it’s great. You can’t rent it though. You can only stream it on FlimFlam Films. You gotta see this movie. It’s streaming exclusively on ParaFkYouMount+.

I would very much like a website where you type in a thing you want and it lists where on the internet you can order that thing, depending on your country. It excludes Amazon, Etsy, Shein, Temu, etc.

A tiny bit of food goes down the wrong pipe and I begin coughing. My brain: “THIS IS IT. THIS IS HOW WE GO. THIS IS THE END. THIS IS HOW OUR STORY ENDS. PLEASE TELL MY FAMILY I LOVE TH—oh, cool, water. yeah, alright. ok. almost overreacted there for a sec.”

Has anyone tried doing a brain dump (god I hate that phrase) at the end of their work day as an exercise to assist with not thinking about work during free time? I really, REALLY need to resolve this.

8 | July 8 = The Great Eight Em Dash Debate! (Idk it rhymes 😅) Purportedly a sign of AI is the overuse of the em dash, so much so that *human* writers have started to shy away from it. So, where do you stand? Delete & replace or keep ‘em (ha) close to your heart? #SummerOfStories #WritingPrompt
