If you're going to create an entire person with their own feelings, hopes, dreams, and struggles and the reason is you want someone to care for YOU when you're old, I think you're having kids for the wrong reason. You're creating life expecting them to be grateful and pay you back for that.

Ffs DON'T just say "hello" in a work chat and wait for a response to ask what you want. You can start with hello, but like....just hello? You could get an answer immediately rather than waiting for a hello back THEN asking your question and waiting for another response.

There are actually almost no “machine made” clothes. Sewing garments requires an ability to account for stretching and shifting fabrics. We can’t create robots that can do that reliably. Most of our clothes are made by highly skilled and criminally underpaid factory workers overseas.

This AEW tribute is really good. I'm glad they are not trying to maintain kayfabe. Letting people grieve, remember and celebrate his life is nice to see. We need more healthy collective grieving examples. Especially when it includes men crying and hugging without shame.

I really love my boss. I threw up in the lobby and was trying to stay the day because I can't afford not working, so she went into my PTO and calculated how much I would have available for the day after payroll processes tomorrow. I'm omw home now with coverage I can depend on.

Dear young artist that might be scared to try: Natural inclination exists. Natural talent does not. What they call talents are just skills, and skills are only a matter of time, repetition, and passion. Try. Keep trying. The rest will sort itself out.

Huh. Just heard that #brockturner goes by his middle name #allenturner these days to avoid accountability. So I guess it’s worth noting that Brock Turner and Allen Turner are the same person. Consequences for actions are a good thing, actually. We can’t do better if we don’t experience them.

Dammit, the Moon is doing a spectacular thing and as usual, it will not fit in my camera at all.
View over tan plains with cholla and distant blue mountains. The sky is blue but pink where the Belt of Venus hits. The moon is vanishing into clouds that cannot be seen as anything but the same shade of blue, and thus looks like a lidded eye.

@cozykathryn.com: "I'm gonna make an invitation for your Birthday/Affiliateversary stream." Me: "Go for it!" Kathryn, 10 minutes later: "Check Discord." It's MAGNIFICENT.
An unhinged advertisement for my birthday/affiliateversary stream featuring a picture of me with a party hat superimposed on my head, and a cartoon Thing from the Addam's Family on my arm. In the background are a disco ball, Paint brushes, Raul Julia as Gomez Addams, cartoon bats, and a screaming cat. The text reads: Xero's 46th birthday stream, 10/9 9am, twitch.tv/artificer_ind.

It is a work of ART.

So how is this a world-building thread? In your human-made fiction, think about who works and why. Is it normal for everyone to have a job away from home? If so, who is caring for the more vulnerable members of the household? What does that spill out into your imagined society?

Come hang out with me while I use Fields of Mistria to distract me from my work! I’m sure it won’t work! I’m sure I’ll be working so well and not get distracted by a certain person/s who is/are mean to me.

For those commenting, yes I'm a VERY lucky person and Luca is a phenomenal husband. If you look up the series, please get it second hand because the authors were awful people and remember lots of events and themes are a product of the genre at the time.

I can't wait to be visibly old so people will stop telling me I'm "too young" to be disabled or have [insert health or life XP here]. People are born with disabilities. We can become disabled at literally any time due to illness, genetic disposition, or injury. YOU can be suddenly disabled too.
