@Scott_Thought I personally love the subgenre: re-reading the first parts of the manuscript, which you wrote before you Changed A Bunch Of Stuff, and discovering that the beginning does not work at all anymore.

*protects you from the government.... literally making ur shit ILLEGAL + physically destroying ur work + efforts to publish it. Among other things, probably. Not 100% on what the govt isn't allowed to do re: ur speech, but I'm p sure it includes "make book bloggers shut up" 2/2

This is your daily reminder that "Freedom of Speech" protects you from the *government*, not individual opinion, and CERTAINLY not teenagers discussing your shitty behavior on the internet.
You ARE free to speak. You spoke. Nobody liked it. Actions --> consequences.

(Notes, bc a brief tweet is a good tweet but nuance is a thing that exists:
*teenagers... and young adults. And adults. And everyone else. Teenagers are just notorious for not pulling punches on social media (in my experience). 1/2

@Classroom337 @chinasacasmir @MaybeHabib *laughs in 4 documents of 150,000 words each*
Fun fact: once you get to that many words, Google docs starts to lag really bad, so it's better to just continue on a new document ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@maggieme0w I was 12, and it was.... unbelievably cursed. And ENTIRELY unsaveable. Definitely a Learning Experience. But it's one of the funniest memories in my head lolol

@StructuredSucc Every time I move: what if i... just walked out the door with my cat, backpack, and my edmund Fitzgerald mug. Oh, and the mug my brother made me. Oh, and my favorite shirts. Oh, and my most important books. Oh, and my stuffed blobfish. Oh, and--
Minimalism is a pipe dream :(

@NickCho Shower, teeth, coffee. Once I'm in the kitchen, my brain believes the day has STARTED. But hygiene is done BEFORE the day starts. Not sure why that's the rule for me lol

Yesterday I saw a person wearing a shirt that said "keep your theology out of my biology"
Didn't get a chance to ask them where they got it, but damn. As a rhetoric person, slow clap.

Do you ever find yourself scrolling through Facebook marketplace at 3:24 a.m. and your brain just stops everything and tells you, loudly, against the silence of the night, "I'm really just trying to find something to buy to fill a void in my life, huh?"

Yeah me neither.

@lil_miss_books This might be me personally but I always end up going back to the same Spotify playlists: Lazy Jazz Cat, and Lush Lofi. I find them to be the perf level of bg noise but not distracting?? I have ADHD so that's pretty rare for me lol

@v_m_ip @BiruktiWrites I have wordhippo bookmarked lol!! It is by far the best online thesaurus I've ever found, EVER.

@BrainFog8 So, I have tinnitus, and I love the ringing tone in my ears. When it's quiet, I genuinely enjoy listening to it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyone who thinks romance books have unrealistic plots should know that I met my now-bf at a mutual friends party, with his then-gf. I was bummed but wanted to still be friends. We got put on the same phone list for a club by chance, and decided to go rock climbing together.
