Day 10 wordcount total: 94 words. That may not seem like much, and it's not really, but it's something and I was able to fix some of the chaos from yesterday. Gotta love migraines! #nanowrimo2025 #amwriting #nanowrimo #nowrimo #WritingCommunity

Day 9 wordcount total: 1227 words. Despite having a horrendous migraine all day, I actually got more words in than if I was feeling fine. I really hope this isn't a trend... #nanowrimo2025 #amwriting #nanowrimo #nowrimo #WritingCommunity

Day 8 wordcount total: 779 words. I got candy today, which is a huge mistake because I eat it all and get sick. Writing would be so much better if we didn't have bodies that needed care... #nanowrimo2025 #amwriting #nanowrimo #nowrimo #WritingCommunity

Day 6 wordcount total: 399 words. I made two mistakes today. 1: I went out of town. 2: I read over what I wrote... and edited. Must focus on forward, not backward! #nanowrimo2025 #amwriting #nanowrimo #nowrimo #WritingCommunity

It's #nanowrimo2025 time and I am, of course, writing! Today's completed wordcount: 1. I made the mistake of doing yard work and have had a killer migraine all day. Yikes.

Today is a rare overcast (and wetish) day here in Northern California and all I want to do is sit in bed and read comics.

Just finished the movie Bones & All staring Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell, based on the book of the same name by Camille DeAngelis (yes, I'm a bit late) and holly... it is NOT what I expected. The recommendation to watch Dinner in America was a nice touch, tubi. I'll be eating tomorrow...

I can confirm the PBS Passport is a very good deal for $5/month or $2.50/month if you do yearly.
Thousands of hours of top notch content. NOVA is great. The new Ken Burns doc on Leonardo da Vinci is excellent.

Best explanation I've ever seen.
Art Nouveau is when stuff looks like it was made by Elves.
Art Deco is when stuff looks like it was made by Dwarves.

The ICE camps are concentration camps. They should be called concentration camps.
It is, of course, important to distinguish between concentration camps and death camps, but also, I am not sure we will know when or if we undergo the transition from concentration camps into death camps.
