all debates abt the artistic merits of fanfiction fail to recognize the purpose of fic. you don’t write fic to be published or to learn how to construct a narrative although you can use it to develop style. you write it so that your friends will message you “bestie you’re utterly deranged for this one im eating dirt”

THE ENTIRE WEST IS BEING PUT UP FOR SALE AND I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL YOUR SENATORS

Trump’s budget bill has many, many things in it, but buried amongst it is the MILLIONS OF ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND FOR SALE.

This is the entirety of the Arizona state forests, the entire Cascades mountain range. Swathes of pristine desert around the national parks in Utah. On the doorstep of Jackson Hole.

THIS BILL IS BIG, BUT IT CAN BE AMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT PASS AS IS please.

If you have ever enjoyed the wilderness, we stand to lose it all forever.

CALLING your senators - NOT JUST IN THE WEST. ALL SENATORS, is CRUCIAL.

Outdoor alliance has a great resource for reaching out.

I don’t have a huge following but please, everywhere I have ever loved, the forests I grew up playing in, the land I got married on, is all at risk and I am begging.

Above all else when talking about well any player but especially the European players; moving to like New Jersey from Europe for 45k a year and having to speak your second language 24/7 and fly 6+ hour flights that cost hundreds back home to play for your national team and see your family is not particularly glamorous. Players are coming over because they feel it’s an opportunity to improve as a hockey player and play in a top league and not because it’s the best living situation. But then if you get over here and you’re only getting 5 minutes a night and you don’t like your coach or the practice facility or the city and you don’t know many of the people here well you may be like damn nvm I’ll go back to the league I know which is still a high level league. Asking to change teams isn’t particularly easy and how do you know it’ll be better if they’re all the same entity. This is double if you were playing for, say, MoDo before, who paid a modest but not great salary, but then luleå calls and they’re the crown jewel of the league and have a lot of the more professional equipment and practice spaces and salary.

If you were a Sim I'd spam motherlode for you.

Aw thanks friend, back at you!

I went to this Northwest Passage museum once where they had the white explorers' journals on one side of the exhibit and the native people's accounts on the other side of the exhibit and the explorer journals were like "our canoe had almost sunk when we encountered some kindly Indians" and the native histories were like "we watched a bunch of strangers come down the river in the shittiest canoe you'd ever seen. Also, they had no rain gear"

"The number of hours we have together is actually not so large. Please linger near the door uncomfortably instead of just leaving. Please forget your scarf in my life and come back later for it."

level of burnout achieved: bought some yogurts for work but could not be bothered to figure out how they fit in the kitchen fridge so I just left them in the plastic bag and shoved the whole thing in the mini fridge upstairs

then I sat down to pet the cat for a sec and fell asleep on the floor with my work shoes on

if I were a sim, I think there would be some kind of flashing red light over my head rn

If you have achieved something, please remember to observe a mandatory period of basking in the warm glow of your achievement like a lizard on a stone, lest you teach your brain that effort is futile, actually, because it didn't get to enjoy its happy chemicals, so, naturally, nothing good ever comes of trying. (And no, avoiding punishment is not a reward!)

I recommend, like, 5% of basking time in relation to whatever time you invested into achieving the thing minimum. And if you can't make your own bask, friend-brought is fine (= tell your friends!).

Imma go ahead and call bs on this - according to this dude everything I've ever written should have been flagged as AI since roughly 2012.

Posting this video because it highlights a lot of things I've noticed in AI writing, but stuggled to pin down before.

(tl;dw (although you should) - Depersonalized writing, unnecessary or oddly phrased details, rule of three, em dashes used in particular way, and the "not only, but also" format of ad copy.) bleeding into everywhere.)

Every time I'm invited to sub in for another game on another team I lose a little more of the fear that I'm a Bad Teammate Actually
