@hankgreen I fear the bananaloca, but I’ve also looked forward to this sequel for a year

Hank Green bought something I designed

That is a thing that happened

What is life

I made weird art and someone made it into coasters less than 24 hours later. Probably would have been almost instant but I didn’t see the message 🤣

P4A is weird.

Dammit Taylor, I’m not supposed to like mainstream music, I’m supposed to like ALTERNATIVE mainstream music!

I can’t handle the song I’ve got on repeat being top of the charts!

C-PTSD is over in the corner just itching to spice things up a little

But Chronic Fatigue is pretty sure we can afford to close our eyes for just a few minutes without

#NaNoWriMo day 6:

Good progress has been made, but discontent is stirring within the ranks.

ADHD has started its own side project

Anxiety has started ruminating over the potential consequences of actually succeeding

[ruth banning @RuthBanning]

OCD keeps insisting that all the little underlines must be dealt with the moment they occur or else ✨something✨

Imposter syndrome found something tall to stand on and is now shouting with greater enthusiasm than ever before

Just did my first #NaNoWriMo word sprint

464 words in 20 minutes

What I have learnt is that actually I really only ever write in word sprints and that what I need is challenges that force me to focus for like 2 hours on the same scene 😬

[ruth banning @RuthBanning]

@NaNoWordSprints 464! This was my first sprint so I had no idea how fast 20 minutes would go 😅

@paytmitch Let’s move to spacehey... I haven’t tried it but it looks like home 🤣

[ruth banning @RuthBanning]

#NaNoWriMo day 3:

5,500 words written, meaning I’m like 10% through...and haven’t figured out if it’s a novel or a screenplay 🤣

I’m just writing disjointed scenes at this point

It’s all dialogue

My characters don’t have names

I’m not even indicating who’s saying what 😬

[ruth banning @RuthBanning]

@dftbaRachel Defffffinitly the nostalgic for being under 18 one 😅

@hankgreen I knew queues were kinda British but I had no idea that the USA didn’t have queues 🤯

In Australia, I think queues are well behaved, and lines are full of teenage boys saying “push and shove, you’ll get there faster”
