Playstation taking away physical game copies is like if authors only provided e-versions of their book.

Half the fun of a physical copy is having it on the shelf.

@dyingscribe Congrats! Will you share the title on here when you publish?

@dyingscribe And they always called him little Hughie even though he was the reason for their success.

Did Mr. Beast just casually admit to his mom committing bankruptcy fraud?

[Third @thirdmetax]

MrBeast reveals his mom secretly hid $10,000 for him because she was terrified he’d go broke

“my parents were over leveraged in 2008 and they lost everything and literally had to file for bankruptcy”

“She took $10,000 and hid it in my name in a bank account I didn’t know about as like a rainy day fund so my son’s never actually homeless”

“I eventually found out about it and I was like oh that’s perfect I can spend a little more on this next video and I’ve never seen her cry more than that”

“she’s just like you can’t take this I need this money so I can sleep at night and know you’re good”

“My brain didn’t register any of that cause I’m just like what do you mean money means to make videos and I’m like why would we save money we can make better videos and I eventually convinced her to give me the money so I can go put it into videos”

@dyingscribe She’s got a point, but the lack of capitalization hurts my eyes.

Jedi Master Yoda on writers passing off AI output as their own👇

Y: If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.

L: Is the dark side stronger?

Y: No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive.

"The Goblet of Fire constitutes a binding magical contract. Mr. Potter has no choice."

Actually, a contract where a party's signature was forged is legally void ab initio due to lacking the mutual consent necessary to form a contract.

Harry Potter did have a choice.

The barrista called me “honey” as she handed me my coffee.

Everything is gonna be alright, guys.

@klhicks912 Well done! I love books in the 60k range. Mine’s about there, too. Readers can finish in one sitting if they’re hooked

@fangsxbangs We used to get connection, now we get… Minecraft.

But seriously, it feels way too corporate these days.

@MelJRey It’s such a roller coaster.

[Z.A. Phillips @zapwriting]

@realevelyncross Happened to me too!

[Z.A. Phillips @zapwriting]

@briefontaine Huge congrats, and great stats honestly

@Jd_gladd96 @FictionalIan I play tedium games like Valheim or World of a Warcraft where I’m kind of building or farming. It’s routine where I don’t have to think almost at all, so fantasy books fit into that super well.

[Z.A. Phillips @zapwriting]

@Jd_gladd96 @FictionalIan Just speaking personally, most of my reading is audiobooks now. I'll turn on a good book during a commute, while running errands, or even when playing a video game.

If Link says a SINGLE word I'm walking out.

The live-action ‘LEGEND OF ZELDA’ movie will release on March 26, 2027 in theaters.

[Z.A. Phillips @zapwriting]

@jflWrites Yes. Help out a starving, struggling up and coming artist man. Get in on the ground level, and when he makes it big he’ll pay you back!

[Z.A. Phillips @zapwriting]

@FictionalIan Page count. It’s more concrete and visual in my brain to see pages done rather than words written.

When I think of word count, I always think “What would that be in pages” anyway, so it’s one less mental step.

@skinnylawyer71 Congrats!
