Wrote with passion in January and February. Languished in March and April. Restarted baby steps at the end of April with ~200 words/day some days of the week. Now, a bit more locked in, finally. #writingcommunity #writesky

I'd decided to be more relaxed today, not wanting to move the goalposts about what is an acceptable amount of writing to do daily. So I didn't write the whole day, until about 90m ago when I got the itch. And I casually wrote another 723 words towards the second story. 🥳🥳🥳

shocked to hear that “...AI chatbots have had no significant impact on earnings or recorded hours in any occupation" based on a study of 25,000 workers at 7000 companies by the National Bureau of Economic Research www.nber.org/papers/w33777 fortune.com/2025/05/18/a...

Fun fact: I've had horrifically vivid dreams and nightmares all my life, occasionally lucid, often recurring or narratively connected. 1 of the most liberating & empowering series was where I was able to fly like a glider, having to flag and ascend like a kite on the wind. It felt REAL every time.

And now 770 words was the final tally today. 3 days of proper momentum has me all fired up. I'm now going to go jump off the rooftop and figure out how to fly. I'm sure nothing will go wrong. #writingcommunity

I just walked non-stop for 75 minutes and this is how I feel and look.

Good start to the day with 630 words towards a different story. Working on 2 stories is nice - you can switch between them if you get badly stuck somewhere. The aim on this one is ~4k words, so it should be done soon-ish (famous last words).

Chills watching the Ospreay and Hangman promo. "Meet me in the desert. I'm calling you to a shootout." Ospreay is a sneaky killer promo. This match is going to be unbelievable. #AEWDynamite

I actually got a little emotional reading this, because it validates a lot of my feelings as a worker for 11 years in the tech industry. I read the whole thing in one sitting, and if you have any experience in corporate and you're not a "manager", I'd encourage you to read it too.

Watching Vic Joseph battle an aneurysm every week is endlessly entertaining. At this point, Corey Graves and Booker T are taking the piss out of him on purpose. #WWENXT

Rich people want service without servants. We're at the stage of privilege where having to even see poor people is too much for them, so if all the work could happen invisibly, that would be greaaat.

Hit 5000 words on a short story tonight. Feels good. Still at least 50% to go though. Also started another story for submission on Sunday. Excited to do both of these and keep momentum going. #writingcommunity

Hope Zoey Stark is okay. That looked like a really bad knee injury. #WWERaw

$20 is an absolute steal for this high quality of artwork. If you need an illustration, reach out to them in the next 1h50m.

Hey isn't it weird that every single AI lab is saying that their ultra-powerful flagship AI model is just around the corner, but it isn't ready yet and you can't see it and they don't know when it'll be done? Isn't it strange that everybody is having the same problems?

"ai is inevitable" no you are just a weak coward

It's frustrating that most days I'm only managing to write ~200 words towards my current short story, but nevertheless, I've taken it from 1700 to 4500 in this way. But today I've started early and I'm feeling motivated. Let's try and get significantly more done today.

It's maddening to see that this is the norm. We have to explain basic communication to people who live in a post-truth, post-meaning world where they think every conversation is a competition and if they find the "gotcha"moment, they win.

"All writing, to some extent, is discovery writing." When you start writing a story, you think you have it in your head. You don't. You have a cool moment or premise, or two. The rest will be found in the outlining and drafting stages.

After a couple of days of paralysis, I was able to write 527 words today. This short story draft is now sitting at 4000 words. Let's try and keep the momentum up tomorrow.

Surreal to think we woke up today to know we are at war with Pakistan. Completely avoidable. Neither nation can take this war. Just let us be

People who have zero idea about war and its consequences on daily life of common people should cease to cheer it on. Whatever done is done, de-escalation needed now.

Please be careful of what uncles and aunties are sharing, and don't be one yourself.
