Hoping to get back to being more active on here soon. The saying when it rains, it pours? Totally true. So, more cat until then. Because cats. #Cats

It was a trial to be on social media today living in Utah. 1 year since the Kirk shooting and half the state is still praising all the "good" he did. Mesnwhile this got nothing. Makes me sick. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_Ev...

Constantly amazed by how much reading your own writing out loud can find problems that simply reading it in your head doesn't. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

Went to bed early last night to read with the missus after our long weekend, I guess the #Cats felt they didn't get enough attention.

#SongsOfSeptember The Ghost of You by My Chemical Romance. During spring cleaning back in May, I came across a CD I burned from my college days. Completely forgot about this song! Added it to the list immediately. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCUp...

Saw a job ad that said it's in office "at least 4-5 days a week". What do you mean "at least"? Do I not get weekends? If it's 5 just say "remote work not available". If it's 4-5 say "possible remote day once a week" or something. Words matter.

#SongsOfSeptember No More Sorrow by Linkin Park. It can apply to a few different characters because of how they see the world, and it's one of my main themes: power brings corruption. youtu.be/rW4uBvP2Dqc?...

#SongsOfSeptember Howdy! Racthoh here, continuing the never ending grind of refining Racthoh's Tale, what will eventually be my debut fantasy epic. My favorite song, which is on any playlist I put together, is Gone Forever by Three Days Grace. Content Warning: youtu.be/hvPuojEkmBQ?...

#AugustWorldBuilders Elven magic differs from the dwarves which also differs from traditional elemental magic. The elves pray to their seven gods for simple things, like conjuring a fire or healing a simple wound. But it can go as far as granting flight. Dwarves imbue objects with magical runes. 1/3

#WIPSnips Footprint. Went with "steps" since I just wrote this tonight and it was fresh in my mind. Our hero speaks with his son after they witness the enemy nearly massacre a village. He poses a simple question that he dares not answer. Text in the alt. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
Andradist took a knee next to the body, staring long into his face. “I can’t get over the guilt I feel for the elves who came after me, and it almost brings me to tears just thinking of it. But not anger, not like you showed, father. I don’t look at this boy’s face and feel mad. But, you didn’t know any of these people, and yet I could feel you wanting to strike every one of those bowmen, and the Crimson. Is that what you mean?”
“I’m not sure I follow you, son.”
He stood, taking two steps back, still fixated on the boy’s face. “He didn’t make you cry. Neither did SPOILER. I’m afraid to ask if you know what could.”
“Don’t worry.” I began walking back to the main path into Belo with Andradist close behind. “The answer terrifies me as well.”

After 100+ agent rejections I can proudly say I got a publisher rejection letter today. I had sent them the first 5 chapters but the full manuscript didn't make the cut. Best result I've had so far, onto the next! #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

I've created chaos within my office and at home with the following question: If I have a 9am meeting, and I say move it back an hour, what time is the meeting? 8am, or 10am. Or suppose you have a 9am appointment, they call to reschedule, move it back an hour. What time are you coming in? 8, or 10?

Incremental Games fascinate me. Not because I'd ever play them, but because it took the long, drawn out, slow progression of power you experience in other games, and stripped everything away that isn't getting stronger. Number go up in a $5-10 afternoon excursion.

Double-checking your work is becoming a lost skill, as evidenced by the number of people who will let AI do as close to 100% of their job as possible but not bother to review what it actually did.

Well, just had an agent submit a bug that an undelivered order appeared on the undelivered orders dashboard, the dashboard designed to show undelievered orders so undelivered orders can be delivered. Going to tell HR that I need a mental health day and it's coming out of that agent's balance.

Part of my job involves manning a helpdesk where employees can report potential bugs. I should be allowed to ban people from it when they provide 0 context. I don't know why people would do the bare minimum to help themselves.

The same person who schedules an 8:30 meeting should not be allowed to schedule a 4:30 meeting.
