What if you were hallucinating but you can't tell because the hallucination is something mundane, like a bug, that no one else pays attention to, like a single bug, that even you don't even see all the time, like a single bug. Would this be a problem or could you just live with it? #askingforafriend

Nothing kills the mood faster than reminding people that they can never know when they will laugh for the last time.

If I'm walking into a store to buy a new pet, and after a few questions the employee decides they won't sell me it, I have total respect for them. Yes, I did let impulse take me there before I fully researched let alone prepared for that animal. You, good person, saved a life.

it's so important to make time for yourself, rest, treat yourself gently and with kind words. you, not me, I have to run myself ragged until I collapse in a pile of exhausted self-hatred but you should definitely self care.

Write every day for 1 hour. If you miss a writing day add 1 hour to the next. It’s incredible! Tomorrow I’m writing for 7 years.

The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.

This coming Valentine's Day, don't give cut flowers if you want it to be a long term thing. Cut flowers are temporary and already dying. Give potted plants because they last longer and ask your partner to continue nurturing this relationship with you, like how they need to care for the flowers.

Horror as a genre can create some of the most transgressive and anti-authoritarian stories possible, and I love it for that.

Times are scary and hard. Maybe take some time for yourself. Do something that gives you catharsis. Do something that makes you feel comfortable.

"Why aren't more people talking about--" Maybe you should follow more than 11 people.

I have a great story idea! I don't have any clue as to who the characters will be, or what the plot will be, but I have a title. "Horrible Advice for Wonderful People." I think it will be a best seller based on the title alone. It already has a sequel. "5 Strange Tips for a Normal Life."

Is that why I'm so broke?

After a stress dream of being back at McDonald's again, I started thinking of the latest Amazing Digital Circus episode to distract my looping thoughts. How did Caine know how to create the restaurant? Also, who created the training video Jax is subjected to? Do the characters influence the space?
