very specific writer pet peeve: I hate how each time i close a specific google doc I have to re-enable seeing the word count while I'm typing and it doesn't save that setting. you have all this data about me and my whole entire life and you can't remember that I want to see how long this thing is?

The biggest enabler for creativity is stability. I wish that was made more central to the creative narrative. Figure out what your specific needs are to limit stressors and enable "boring" time and work to achieve that as hard as you're practicing your art.

In case you're wondering how things are going in online media today (since been deleted)
Despite rumors to the contrary, we have not eliminated our News section.

We simply fired all the news editors who didn't resign in protest and have been slowly gutting our other departments as Valnet continues CBR's shift to an Al-driven, clickbait-focused content mill.

“It’s a symptom of the way people treat artists these days, not as people but as crystallised versions of themselves that only exist in the art they made, never to be tangible outside of it.”
