Like they get stuck at a hyper-intelligent AI anti-cheat system which was very woo woo tech when it was released, but legit the easiest way to break it involves lying to the right people and planting fake info. 100% Conmen territory. But tbf the fake earthquake was more cinematic.

In Oceans Thirteen there's a comment about how Danny and Rusty are analog players in a digital world, which is kind of hilarious cause when you think about it conmen are the best way to break every digital system.

This is, of course, a category reserved for print media. There's many an ebook on my kindle that's glad for that.

It's funny how people consider a 0 or 1 star review to be the lowest status a book can attain. When in reality there's one below: designated spider killer.

After a day of many many spreadsheets I humbly request that all numbers remove themselves from my presence. Failure to comply will result in a strongly worded, but undated, letter.

I didn't get to ask my questions but I did join a group from the astronomical society to point out that from this very spot if you look up, over there, you could see a tree. It's been a while since I've inspired much horror. I've missed it.

I'm heading to an astronomy thing this evening, help me decide, should I: A. Ask why we haven'tlanded on the sun yet (at night, when it's safe obvs) B. Tell people that our success/failure will all depend on whether Mercury is in retrograde ?

Yes I did wake up after 5 hours sleep and start writing a lit rpg after chatting about them last night. I'm not proud to fall into yet another project when I really need to focus, but I did use the phrase "deus ex-position" so at least I'm proud of one thing today.

The biography I'm reading is amazing, it's given me new insights on so many things. First and foremost that maybe men shouldn't be allowed to write biographies about women considered sex symbols.

Gotta love eco-friendly initiatives; after crunching the numbers, if I get my house wrapped, it'll take ~40 years to earn the cost back in savings. In 31 years I can apply for free home insulation upgrades for the elderly.

So I started planning to read as a health activity rather than jsut a hobby and I've seen a huge improvement in my energy, sleep, and relaxation. Figuring out the lines between work, not-work, and relaxing is way more complicated than we give it credit for.

I've a fancy watch that tracks my stress levels and I recently realised one of the only things that puts my body into relax-mode is reading. Social media in particular didn't register differently from working, even when just viewing fun videos

I'm proud to say that after a week of self imposed psychological torture I've sent a reply to my accountant. This follows eight months of self imposed psychological torment over how I need to file taxes but- not doing that. So my turnaround is improving.

Going to a craft beer festival the night before was not my best decision. Not my worst, but definitely not my best.

I'd say the speed my body went from yay exercise to complete shut down needs to be studied, but it has in fact already been studied, so now I have scientific papers to read 🫠

By cleaning this up am I ridding an archetype of a chance for exposition within a vaguely acceptable narrative framing? Should I do something so cruel? Like exposition is hella hard to work in naturally. I, for example, am a writer who...

While I want to clean up my gDrive I'm torn: What if I get murdered and a hot shot genius detective is on the case? He'll need the files to distinguish my character and find some killer foreshadowing. The document with the words "Agatha Christie". The spreadsheet containing only the number 175.

Ok folks, time to celebrate! I fully finished and submitted a short story to a competition. It's the first short story I've written in years let alone edited, reviewed, finished and submitted. Massive success 💃

I opened my phone to post about the cool frog I saw today but no- I had to see an article about friendslop games and NOW I NEED TO CALM DOWN.

I can't express the level of hatred I have for the term friendslop. It's the epitome of the basement dweller gamer bro bullshit. Fuck right off.

An unexpected revelation after cutting down on drink is that my body can process alcohol pretty well. Turns out I can experience 90% of what I thought of as a hangover just by being sleep deprived.

Driving instructors simple don't understand the creative mind, the muttering is itself a vehicle to show character, and all vehicles must be expertly steered.

Honestly a diamond is a brilliant comparison for an NFT. It's a shiny rock that a bunch of people who owned shiny rocks spent millions to convince you was important and therefore worth lots of money. NFTs just failed their marketing campaign. And they're not shiny.

I regret to inform you that if you prep and plot using record cards but plan to write on a computer, there is a mandatory "move all this crap to the computer stage" and you'll feel like your brain is melting out of your ears with boredom.

Necklace shopping online is such a mixed bag, on one hand there's shiny stones I'm supposed to believe are worth hundreds of euro, and on the other there's the FFVIII Greiver pendant for 40 quid.

My schedule isn't a mess, it's simply filled with Chekhov's tasks. At some point they will be completed, but no one knows when or how, and it's a source of endless internal drama.
