All your first draft has to do is get your ideas on the page. Making it good is for later drafts.

I love being a human artist and creating something never before seen, out of my mind’s eye. I love making every decision with care. I love trying and failing. I love noticing mistakes and fixing them. I love it all.

We report as we are leaving the night behind: our breath fogs pale between the sun and us, and the sun rings red in the dewy air. It was not supposed to be this cold, but our usual suspect, the humidity, has us hunched up against the slight breeze. Our expert is in a cheery mood.

I'm not sure which of you need to hear this, but:
If you push yourself to your limits and burn out for a company, you are trading years of your future productivity for minor gains in the present.
Burning out will _fuck you up_, it's like brain fog or depression, and it takes years to recover

i am gutted by the population at large so wholly abandoning any effort to protect the most vulnerable members of our society, which includes disabled people, the elderly, and children. we all deserve protection and access to public space amid an airborne pandemic

Watched The Monolith Monsters (1957) yesterday and it blew me away. Alien invasion / giant monster movie where the "monsters" are inanimate rocks from a meteor. Everytime they get wet, they grow into towering monoliths, fall over and shatter, and then the cycle repeats, multiplying. Ingenious.
