Today I learned about the term Battleshort.

I like irritating my spouse. All I have to do is say the word "pantses" and he starts twitching.

Go super disturbing artsy. Make a canvas out of skin. Paintbrush handle out of bone with human hair for the brush tip. And then use the crushed up organs to make paint. Gallbladder is a greyish blue, bone marrow is yellow and well, fairly certain someone can figure out a red organ. Have the...

Out of all my stories, I'd say the most evil is probably tied with the three members of the Morrigan from my modern fantasy setting (I have a stupid amount of stories set in the same world). In this setting, the strength of a person's magic/ability is based on the age of their soul. The longer...

You know... I understand translators not wanting others to copy and rehost their work elsewhere but it's never not going to be funny to me that there are some who use mtl and put up neat little copyright messages. One of those 'that's not how that works' giggles for me.

The more I look, the worse it gets.

I agree with the rice thing. We make tacos. Then we make taco rice. We make western skillets. Then we make skillet rice. Fake crab is better than real crab and they don't taste the same at all. Most people who say they don't like Liver have never actually eaten a properly cooked liver (same...

I like reading stuff with romance in it so fair warning about these. I have a lot more recommendations that are uploaded on a certain site but most of my favorite stuff tends to be romance. Sigrid. The female MC is borderline autistic and has a negative EQ at the start of the story. Gradually...

Anne MacCaffrey is both a favorite and least favorite (I don't need explanations for my space dragons, damnit!). I also like Anne Rice (the vampire lore building was fantastic back in the day), Cassandra Clare (in addition to the Mortal Instruments, she wrote "The Very Secret Diaries of the LotR...

I say no I wouldn't press the button but if I am locked in there with nothing else and just myself I'll eventually press it.

My algorithm is broken again. It's telling me I can save money on Jamie Campbell Bower and that Amazon has a huge in-stock inventory.

There is apparently a building in London that has the nickname the "Walkie-Talkie" as it looks like one. It also has the nickname "The Fryscraper" as it occasionally reflects sunlight in such a way that it caused spots on the ground to reach 117 °C (243 °F).

All webpages really need to have a dark mode. We're in the 2020s, let me rest my eyes from paper white.

No, a story doesn't need some grand overreaching meaning or message. A story is just a story. Whatever meaning you have behind it doesn't matter as readers will come up with their own meanings. Some will read into it even deeper than you ever intended. A kind of famous example (that has been...

A disadvantage to lacking the urge to write is that I have more time to read. And that means I end up reading a lot of things that feel similar to what I'm writing. Which then leads me to not have the urge to write. The endless cycle.

Well, mine are kind of spoilerly for the stories as they haven't reached the point that the healing is a thing even though it's existed since the beginning of the stories. Mostly through hints. Except for Ara, she's basically an overpowered demigod at the start of SfAL. She has regeneration...

I love reading translations where the translator chooses fancy sounding words. Such as decidophobia. I guess writing out "problems making decisions" was a little too long.

House Flipper 2 is free to play until Monday, but Clanfolk has an update... watch me just dissociate and play neither.
