His ego is really that big and bruised. Fragile man baby.

Note: I’m don’t live in or am from NYC, but I know how important their mayoral elections are to the rest of us.

Yep. For mental health reasons, I’m taking a social media break for a few days. If you want to share things or chat, I’m still on Messenger, Discord, or on my phone.

I’ll still keep track of the news, but I need to break away from doom-scrolling.

A Thread- Called my rep here in Tennessee. Asked why I was opposed to the BBB. I gave my reasons for opposing it including basic Christian values of love thy neighbor, protecting the poor, etc. Immediately got the MAGA bs answers involving illegal immigrants. #politics #bbb #angry #fascism

It’s my birthday today, and I’m trying to be a happy elder millennial. However, I’m pissed again about the BBB passing the Senate. Shame on them. Shame!!

Trying to be creative while *gestures to everything in the last 5 months* is hard. However, I have to try so I don’t go more crazy. 🧵

That being said, need some #writer advice. If I wanted my female antagonist to have some sort of demonic connection/powers, what could I use? (See thread) #writersky

“it begins with a murmur drifting upon the wind.”

a moodboard detailing nine images related to my book ALL THE DEVILS aka devilswip. in order from right to left they are: london notably the landmark big ben, a band performing on stage, a sheet of music, a record store, the silhouette of a rockstar, some musical instruments scattered on a bed, two men running, a pile of evidence and finally a hand holding a cigarette the first pages of ALL THE DEVILS: prelude 21st august 2016 it begins with a murmur drifting upon the wind. at first, it’s small—unnoticeable, but soon that murmur, that slick sliver of sound that could one day change the world reaches humankind and becomes a hurricane—an untamed clamour among the silence. it ripples. it taunts. It waltzes upon the breeze like the destructive force it is and, in the end, is unstoppable. It cannot be contained. It’s there forever, a permanent echo in a vacuum, a scratch on a record, a soundbite of time. today, the murmur begins its devastating dance outside a block of flats overlooking the river thames. a white flurry of forlorn forensics leave the building with disbelief carved onto their weary faces. an unsettling stillness suffuses the space as the murmur passes from person to person. it’s him, rumbles the murmur. it’s sam corvi. he’s dead.

Prologue- August 1987

“When I lay in the yard and stare at the sky, I look for Daddy to send me a signal from the stars. Mommy says he’s up there, exploring with other people. They are looking for new things to show us here on Earth. I think this is so cool!”

Welp, the sci-fi book I’m writing is turning into an allegory for grief, isolation, and helplessness during the Pandemic, and I’ve cried writing a couple of scenes. Guess I still have stuff to process.

Heavy pour for that Manhattan, virtual bartender.

Final Post for Project 1- My protagonist, Evie, and my antagonist, Mae, like to yell at me while writing their story.

Sometimes, it gets Shakespearean.

My #WiP "Children of the Sands" is an excellent parenting guide in the sudden case of needing your child be influenced by an Eldritch Horror and disappear without a trace with no hope for rescue

Just follow these simple and practical steps and your child will never be seen again

My (17F) friend/crush (17F) is a disorganized genius. She has a standing invitation to come to my house when she forgets her keys, but today I was super stressed, and I wound up insulting her organization. Then she insulted my intelligence. I kicked her out. AITA?

It’s a roadtrip with friends!

Sure, it’s less “trip” and more “fleeing home after a heist went loud”…
And his new “friends” are recruiting him for a second job…
And there isn’t really a “road”, more of “blighted fields”…

But this’ll help solve his bad work/life balance!

Post 2/Project 1- Evie may be struggling a little. She might be crazy. She might not. All she knows is she despises that woman.

Post 1/Project 2- Jennifer is tired of being known for her father’s space mission death on live TV in the 1980s. Finally moving forward in life, 💩 starts up again. “He better be dead.” -Jennifer, Age 38
