Venezuela, MN, Greenland, etc, are not "distractions" from Epstein or anything else. They are all connected in that they are the fruits of unqualified and unstable people given absolute power and wielding it in ways that profit them and hurt others. It's not a conspiracy, it's an ethos.

Our reporters are on site at the vigil - network congestion preventing uploads currently. We would estimate up to 10,000 people are attending the vigil near 34th and Portland Avenue in Minneapolis at this time.

Two in one, because I missed yesterday.

#8 - Writing strengths... ummm... that sometimes I manage to make myself do it? 😅
In all seriousness... idk. My writing is mine, that's all I know.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but your desire to have a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, endless cups of tea, a riveting novel, a plate of freshly-baked emotional support scones, and a bookshelf with a rolling ladder doesn’t make you “too needy."

Not sure it's a trope exactly but "finding each other in any timeline/dimension/incarnation"... I will never get enough of that.

I don't have habits (of any kind), I have a to-do list. On my list is a daily task: "write one sentence". If I do that (I usually do, because it's on my list), 97% of the time I will write way more than a sentence.
The trick (and it is a trick) is to make myself start.

I will never use LLM for anything to do with my writing. Even my research is driven by good research practice, not AI. Why would I? I like the work. If you don't like doing the work, ask yourself why you're not actually doing something you do like to do, instead.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

At my parents’ house until Christmas and they are very respectful of my night owl schedule except they have this habit of going to opposite ends of the house and then holding conversations by no-quite-shouting at each other.

I just pulled down the last note card, oh my GOD the dopamine hit of finishing a first draft.
I map out scenes I need to write by taping note cards to my kitchen cabinets and I just need everyone to know that I only have one cabinet left to write for this draft.

It all comes at once. Everything starts with a scene, and I go into that scene, and beyond it is another one, and then another one. The further I go, the more I discover - about the story, the characters, the world.

Apologies that the October prompt list for #SFFChat is so late! When I wasn't able to get it done for the first I wasn't sure if I should do it, but in the end I made one.
Hope the continuation of the spooky theme isn't a bother--interpret the prompts as broadly as you need to (including snippets)
