Thissss. At *best* it makes you sound like a Ferengi.
When I was a teenager, it was widely acknowledged that any man using "females" as a noun was a raging misogynist. Now I'm seeing journalists using "females" to talk about women as if it doesn't make them sound like serial killers.

I don't know what they put in the luminous orange "cheese" popcorn that completely breaks my resolve (it's definitely not cheese), but every time I finish a box I go "that was awful, I should stop buying this" and then three weeks later I'm at it again.

Just signed up! I’ve been doing a habit pledge with gywo for the past two years (6 more days of writing to hit my goal this year!) and I cannot overstate how great it’s been for my productivity. Highly, highly recommended for anyone who needs a little gentle accountability!
We're currently at 295 writers. The 2015 pledge class was 317 writers. Can we get—okay 10 gets us to 305, then another 10 to 315, 2 more, and then 1 more to exceed, and what's that—28! Can we get 28 more writers to pledge today? #writinggroup #notmath

a story is like a building. you have to keep working on it, making it taller; if you don’t, it’ll never be finished. you have to stop perfecting the foundations and start on the walls. of course the roof may still fall in later but that’s a different problem.

Further to that last retweet—absolutely, one million percent, use your good ideas and you will find there are more underneath them. The perfect idea you’re saving for some nebulous right time that will never come is standing in the way of all the better ideas behind it.

It was Downey who coined the phrase in the LEVERAGE writers room “future episodes do not win out over present episodes”. Trust me, you’ll have more ideas. You’ll die full of them.
WRITING TIP, something simple but it catches many of us out: if you have a great/fun idea for your story, *use it now*.
Don’t save your ideas for some nebulous other story you might write tomorrow. I promise you’ll have more.
Break your story’s status quo. Go a step further. Use the big idea.

there is actually not a single job currently done by humans, no matter how "skilled" or "unskilled", that AI can adequately replace, which kinda makes burning down all those trees seem...not worth it

Just filled in my Secret Santa wishlist and included an “easy mode” option consisting of one (1) readily available item that costs exactly the amount agreed on. I think I should be sainted actually. Now I’m going to shake the rest of my family until they fill in their wishlists.
