I’ve made my friend give me a hard deadline to write 50k words in a month (an informal NaNoWriMo, if you will) because I’m fed up of Not Writing and need a solid goal.

So we’ll see how that goes… and if I’m still sane by the end of it.

I want to write like I’m running out of time, but I have inattentive ADHD so I actually write like I’m immortal and the inconvenient constraints of limited mortality simply don’t apply to me.

Hey so if you go out to dinner with your posh-ass family, expecting nice ambiance, maaaaybe don’t go to a sports bar??? And then complain that they’re playing sports on the TV out loud??? At a sports bar???
Just a thought…

How does Netflix not have a shuffle episode feature yet??
I want a RANDOM Friends episode to make it feel authentic — like when it’s on TV

Don’t you love when you’ve been lovingly coming up with your new story, you already love your characters and the vibes, and then you realise…
Oh. Wait. I have to actually write this. OH GOD. *starts sweating*

Unbelievable. The AI obsession has now indoctrinated my cat.
She opened this page herself. I think she’s hinting at something…

Guys I have genuine suggestion: we need to bring back the handheld parasol.
Hear me out: completely blocks sun rays, you feel cooler because you're shaded, you feel fancy, much easier than spraying greasy suncream onto your face which we all forget to do anyway.
It's a no-brainer!

You ever spend time with people outside your social sphere and realise… these people really do be saying this shit out loud, huh

yeah i got no issue with people whose job involves the use of machine learning tools for a number of technical tasks but anyone using AI to automate human communication or creativity is just instantly less of a person to me
Employees who use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini at work face negative judgments about their competence and motivation from colleagues and managers, according to a new study.
AI use damages professional reputation, study suggests
New Duke study says workers judge others for AI use—and hide its use, fearing stigma.

funny how yall were like "a humanities degree?? so employable 🤭" and now you're explaining to me how a machine that can compose vaguely correct-sounding sentences is critical to our economic future

Got my diagnosis! Not to brag but I got top marks (9/9) on the inattentive ADHD score 👌🏻 it’s over for y’all once I start treatment and can actually - do - things ✨
After almost exactly 3 years I finally have an assessment booked for a potential ADHD diagnosis, let’s gooooo 🙌🏻

My WIP dry spell has come to an end finally!
I haven’t touched my story since October but today I did some much needed B-plot work (that’s the same as writing… right?)

My 10yr old niece is planning her book and one of the characters is: ‘Rick Cole, dies, funny, works 3 jobs, depressed’
and honestly she’s so real for that

I've been a writer my whole life and I've learnt that those days you don't feel like writing, those weeks where you make no progress, those months where you haven't thought a single creative thought... they pass. Don't obsess. Have faith. It comes back. #WritingCommunity

Advice from a Literature teacher and resister: read your history, but don’t forget your literature.

Resistance is woven through the words of abolitionism and feminism and anti-fascism. Read the history and the literature.

Completed my reading challenge and it’s not even December! 🙌🏻
I’d like to humbly thank everyone who’s supported me through this arduous but worthwhile journey. Special mention to the Throne of Glass series - she really carried me this year. 🖤

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
