I just watched Don't Look Up. The only thing "wrong" with this movie is that the people who need to learn from it absolutely won't, and it gives the rest of us with brains in our heads worse anxiety than we've already got. Seriously, I was on the verge of a panic attack the whole… Continue reading A Handful of Thoughts on Saturday Night

The Tide
Why is it a race to as many books as possible? Why isn't it a race to the best books possible? (I mean, I know why: money. We need it to survive. This is just a general spewing of thoughts...) This is something I am struggling with, and I want to understand and accept, and… Continue reading The Tide

New Girl, S4E2: Jess: I don't want to hurt their feelings.Schmidt: Hurt their feel--do you just walk around all day thinking about other peoples' feelings?Jess: Yeah! Don't you?Schmidt: No!

Some People Will Take All Your Candy
We are selling our house, and I have a bowl of candy out specifically for potential buyers. It's obvious the candy is for people viewing the house because it's right at the entrance and it's basically the only thing in the whole damn place except a bottle of hand sanitizer and a candle that smells… Continue reading Some People Will Take All Your Candy
Trigger Warnings and Self Publishing
Along with a couple familiar ones, I picked up a new beta reader for The Association, and she asked me for a list of trigger warnings before she started reading. If you're unfamiliar with the term, a trigger warning is typically a short list of possibly traumatic material within a piece of media. An example… Continue reading Trigger Warnings and Self Publishing
Thoughts While Watching 2001’s The Fast And The Furious
For reasons unknown, Husband got it into his head that we, as a couple, need to subject ourselves to the entirety of the Fast and Furious movie franchise. Because I love him, I have agreed to devote 15 hours and 57 minutes of my life watching ethnically ambiguous men beat one another up furiously between… Continue reading Thoughts While Watching 2001’s The Fast And The Furious
Thoughts On TV
I haven't had cable for years now, and no Netflix for probably a year. While I do have Amazon Prime and access to a couple other avenues for watching television and movies, I haven't watched actual television, with the channels you can click through and commercials, in a long time. Until today. What is going… Continue reading Thoughts On TV
A Vacancy Update – Season One End And Where It’s Going
After posting the season one finale of Vacancy at 11:30pm on a Monday, my scheduled release day, for the 15th time in a row, I'm sitting here feeling very fucking pleased with myself. After 6 months, 25 parts, and about 40,000 words, I actually, like, finished something. Well, sorta. But first of all, for those of you… Continue reading A Vacancy Update – Season One End And Where It’s Going
The Need To Be Liked
I talked about the freedom of being phone-less recently, and since I've replaced my sad cracked-screen with a much more expensive but narrowly different model, I've been trying to limit my use of it. I could do better (damn you, Hogwarts Mystery!), and admittedly it hurts to drop a few hundred dollars on something just… Continue reading The Need To Be Liked
