I propose an international law that once you become personally responsible for the murder of 1,000 people, be it via direct violence or policy, you are declared a dragon and adventurers can form parties to quest against you.

Tokusatsu would drive these people insane. "What do you MEAN there's a different Kamen Rider every year?'l
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

I feel bad now about making it obvious how some of my characters can come back from the it-seems-like-dead. (But having a necromancer around is such a great reason for expendable minions…)
Every comic book writer is listening to this novelist whinge about how hard it is to bring a character back from the dead like, “bruh”

My laptop is being weird and cranky. It’s nine years old and I’m pushing some of the stuff way past what it should be at.

Time to find out if a diabetic trans woman can sell plasma.

have decided I need to call and maybe get an appointment with an endocrinologist to see about how well things are going.

hard mode: must be able to help me with both HRT and diabetes. That might be a problem.

I spent a chunk of the day trying to get my next book formatted for an actual print version, only to get hit with the "well, crap" of the AWS outage messing with things.

One of these days.

it's funny how their 'big tent' only extends right, never left, and how they always blame its failure on dirty hippies refusing to come inside, not their own embrace of TERFs, fascists and other exclusionary demographics
Folks demanding political / ideological purity fail to see that this is no longer a movement belonging to the left / liberals. This is an opposition against fascism. By definition it must be big tent. Failure to grasp this: see divided oppositions in Eastern Europe as your failed examples.

I flunked out of college learning the social skills I never learned before it,
and sometimes it still hurts. If I
had the available comprehension at the time I wonder what I might have become.
Actually, related to this:

I failed out of my first major in college. I was an art student at first. Now I've got a doctorate and tenure.

Failure is the most instructive, helpful thing in the universe for me. Still scary as heck, but most of the best things in my life are because I failed hard.
Good watercolor painting is *absolute wizardry* to me, mainly because when I tried to be an artist, paintbrushes were the tool I could never get to work the way I wanted, no matter how much I practiced. Especially when someone can do detailed and intricate work?

Just... Wow. My mind boggles.

Feeling emotionally shitty today for a very large number of reasons. And the thing that gets me is that while some things have inspired it, it's no one's actual fault but my own, and I need to suck it up.
