I've written about what dying typically looks like - not as a 'pro' or 'anti' AD piece, but in the spirit of confronting a taboo.

We've lost the easy familiarity with the patterns of dying that existed when death typically occurred in people’s own homes.

Let's talk about it 🙏

This waiting a week between each Silo and Day of the Jackal ep is not working for me - not least because I cannot remember what happened two minutes ago, let alone a week ago! 😫

friends if you want a recommended Feed to add, 'Quiet Posters' is one which lets you see the posts from people you follow who don't post very much so you don't miss things and it is a BALM to my weird anxieties even though i still miss things

If you're a screenwriter who just arrived, this place works on feeds and tags.
You can add feeds (e.g. #scriptsky - everything with the tag #scriptsky) and scriptsky+ which casts the net a wider.
Feeds live on your left menu.

This list also works like a feed.
