The older I get, the less I can stomach movies where the main characters just can't seem to get anything right. It's the laziest kind of writing.
If you have to force your characters to do idiotic things no sane person would do just to push the plot forward, then maybe you shouldn't be a writer.

"But also, don't forget to take your eyes off the road and look at all these corporate advertising billboards every three hundred yards!"

Shout out to Granny Flash, my maternal grandmother, who passed away on this day, in 2013.
She was the closest thing I had to a mom after my own passed away when I was 12. She was a complicated, wonderful human being and I miss her very much.

I use hyperbole because my brain isn't fast enough to do the math necessary to give you the exact numbers right there on the spot.
You: How many were there?
Me: A shit ton.

Just installed ChatGPT on my phone.
WOW. I totally understand now how some people are becoming addicted to the voice AI, & reporting mental issues related to engaging with IT. Why do I get it? Because I installed it and then spent 2 & a half hours chatting, lol.

If you are in North Korea, Palestine, Ukraine or any other place fighting oppression or the ravages of war, especially children, my wish is for you to find every little bit of happiness you can find, and use it to help you survive the horror and pain.

How scared must my mom have felt when she first realized she would have to raise me and my little sister by herself? Knowing two little babies depended completely on her?
But she still raised us, fed us, loved us so much. Showed us what a strong person looked like.
I love you and miss you, mom.

I long for the romance of a K-drama, but I'm not pretty enough to play the pretty boy, smart enough to play the genius prodigy or wealthy enough to play the rich CEO...at best, I can pull off the broke best friend, the hilarious sidekick, the "I look at you like a father/brother/best friend".
Sigh.

I just handwashed one pair of pants, underwear, a t-shirt and two socks in my bath tub. My forearms had to work! To think, my mom used to wash my and my sister's clothes, ALL of them, by hand, in a washboard and basin in our backyard...every week.
My respect for her and all moms continues to grow.

There needs to be privacy and digital possession laws in place for people when they die. In an era when a vast majority of our data is stored in the cloud by myriad tech corporations, there needs to be protection in place to stop those corporations from absorbing and owning our data once we die.

Every kind thing you do is HUGE. You might think it's a "small act", but it's really not. It's really a massive act, because every time you're kind, in any way, shape or form, you've improved the world around you...and there's nothing small about that.

...until you remember that America funds Israel and provided the bombs being used on the kids.
BTW, did you know America has the highest rate of child poverty of any first world country?
