Woah, current wordcount is 63158, tallying up the chapters that are in queue to be posted. I'm starting to feel a bit more like myself, despite the pinched muscles and pain flareups
Guess I already said that though
It feels good, y'know? Being back in the zone, making progress w/ my babies

46k words so far this month, getting gassy bloated and crampy, so today might not make much more progress

The AuDHD socializing/existing needing to communicate with other humans experience in a nutshell, heh

Tooootally valid, and I agree wholeheartedly
just... monogamuggle cishets are... are they alright? (The answer is no a disproportionate percentage of the time)

Fair, fair
Also, despite Reggie not having a sex or gender(digital creature& changeling-fae), most readers will assume they're AMAB
Teuila is a warrior woman for sure
The only reason Reggie survives their encounters is because of their nerdery
Basically I'm yay'ing that their arc falls in line heh

Or a sequel to Dogma, yes, obvee

The best footnotes
I hope the racist person loses their platform, their money, and has to work retail&/or fast-food for the next ten years, like most of the rest of us have had to do
Maybe then they'd learn to keep their xenophobic mouth shut if they had a little human empathy

It sounds like the plot of an augmented reality Supernatural Season 16+, where demons plant too-obvious things in too-obvious places IRL to engage with the show's reboot
Or somebody's fanfic
I suppose...
I am shooketh one might say

Fair enough
I didn't recognize myself as a writer for... decades, despite how much writing I did during that time, without thinking of it as "writing"
But that's impostor syndrome for ya I suppose

The quiz is available at: uquiz.com/quiz/p0u5c3?...
comment in response to

That's awesome, because I've totally been there (usually about coding/scripting for videogame mods, but sometimes for my writing)
Glad you got a chance to write it down

I feel you, so very very much
Yeah... Being a solo content creator, with multimedia dreams/plans...(Making 1 or more videogames on top of my webnovel series and cover art...)
Ugh, never enough time and spoons to dedicate to even mastering one of the several skills I'm gonna need
comment in response to

...
Yeah...
I pushed to do "some stuff" nearly every day for like 9 months straight, and for the last month+ (and still going) I've been in the worst burnout state/biggest pain flareup of my life
Feel better :/

Fair, that's kinda what I've been doing
I toggled on the setting that makes it so that I can't post images without adding alt text to them, because my squirrel-brain would forget otherwise.
I do kinda wish I could give a 1000 word essay on every image in great detail, but I'm not there mentally
comment in response to

I'd feel like a dick to call it a wholely forgettable experience, because it might literally just be my own memory issues, which I've got plenty of, between PTSD and who knows what else rattling around in this skull, heh
Plus, there's only so many petabytes of info my brain can hang on to, y'know?
comment in response to
post
It...Great, now I'm getting it mixed up with Morbius
Like, I know I liked it enough that I turned off my brain and watched the whole thing
But I cannot for the life of me remember much except some back and forth between Eddie, ex wife, and venom
Maybe Carnage/Woodie H? Or was that a Spiderman movie?
comment in response to
post
I had to turn on an option on platforms just so that I remember to add alt-text, because Social Media is so draining that I'm usually throwing something together quick and wanting to get it over with
I'm glad it's an option to be unable to skip the alt text
I'm happy to help vision-impaired peeps

Got distracted from my distraction, went to look up Digimon quizzes, somehow ended up in a reread of the pre-written chapters of my webnovel series, for Volume 7
Blarghadoodle, I need to finish Volume 6 so I can finally post these and reveal the mysteries of An Age of Mysterious Memories!

An ex partner and I call ourselves poly pandemics
Pan(sexual) demi(romantic) gray As essentially
I just like the idea of a poly pandemic being like a horror movie for the monogomuggles, that just shows wholesome, healthy, communicative open relationships as the virus epidemic, lol
comment in response to
post
I like 'em!
Funnily enough, the end of Volume 3 centers around building a "Shield of Lacrimosa Trifecta", and I've rarely seen the word used elsewhere, so it's nice to stumble across it
comment in response to
post
Ooo, I don't know how to choose, or what would be chosen for me
Hm... Now I need to see if there's any of those silly quizzes, "See which Digimon partner you'd get" sorta things I guess, hah
More things to distract myself instead of focusing on writing
(Not necessarily a bad thing with IRL junk atm)
comment in response to
post
Same
I even dislike ray tracing/whatever other high end graphic things they come up
I've got one of the beefiest possible consumer computers you can build, & I still play games on potato mode/turn down every effect, most of the time
I want my PC to last& multitask, not stress out the GPU
comment in response to

Felt
I took to using Obsidian when the pieces start to scatter
To keep track of who's where when/learned which secret from whom/who is and isn't in the know about which thing, which magic items are on cooldown, who was injured where and how they're recovering
What the bad guys are up to offscreen

Digimon forever!
The characterization of partners as their own people/characters is the absolute best
There's this sort of vibe like,
Even if there is some sort of "destined/fated partner" waiting out there for you to meet... you still have to treat them well, or things are gonna go horribly

Good luck
I had to send in my disability review letter recently
Here's hoping nothing changes with my benefits
comment in response to
post
Yeah, that's pretty fair
I think once things get to the point of emulators+roms being easy to find, and one other thing happening, that qualifies as old or retro in one form or another
comment in response to
post
It would hurt my soul that XCX qualifies as retro, but I'm too stoked about the idea of someone else playing it and having something to say about it
I don't do favorites often, but Xenoblade Chronicles X is probably low key my favorite game ever
comment in response to

... yeah... caused some pretty serious burnout, just like wiring in that state likely will, heh
comment in response to

... this is why I end up on binges for various topics like literary tropes, writing styles, and random things
Blargh
Heh

What popped into my head is Zoey Rayne from Palworld... so uh, Pink, Black, and for a third I guess Neon-Green
I'm a bit partial to teal myself, and red, copper, or orange. Ahem, heh.

<3 Catradora
Catra in her suit at the Princess Ball especially is my aesthetic
Maybe if I get my body back into its shape from ten years ago I could hope to look half that good

Huh, I haven't owned consoles in any serious way since the SNES/Sega, sad I missed out on this when it came out
(Bought some used consoles from thrift stores or gamestops years after their prime, like WiiU for XCX, and a 360 for a couple exclusive RPGs)
No energy to hunt down my 360&that game tho

Aye, I have to giggle when the writing comm interaction Qs are like, "If your WIP was turned into a movie, how long would it be...?" etc
I'm like..."Give me a few seasons... at minimum 9, one for each volume please, but I mean old-school 1 episode per week in a year seasons, so like 450+ episodes"
comment in response to
post
So true!
I started to copy/crosspost to Wattpad, and had been copying all chapters to Patreon upon release(Not looking for patrons really, have 0, just want peeps who might enjoy/benefit feeling seen in fantasy lit spaces to see it)
Burned out on both of those
Gotta be realistic w/ my spoons

That's right!
Curse my ADHD
I joined spacebattle forums a ... week or two? a few months? back... it's in one of these tabs
I'd been intending to start interacting with that community to try to do a bit of self-promotion w/out just shilling
comment in response to
post
Ah, gotcha, gotcha,
Yeah I've always had to respond to writing Q's that serial writing is different than novel releases in so many ways
Even the promotion though huh? It makes sense
But yeah, we're closing on on 2 million words and 600 total chapters so far posted (and more pre-written for Vol7)
