#but it does have customizable shortcuts

[trashcanwithsprinkles]

Ι saw your response to the ask about how you write your plots and just wanted to ask what program you use to write (and keep track of things) because seriously the fact that you are managing to keep track of 10??? plots is so impressive (and your writing is a gift!!!)

i switched to obsidian sometime after i finished cyanide! it has a lot of interesting stuff but quite frankly i only use it like a regular notepad just one that lets me open tabs and create folders. the only downside to leaving google docs is that i can no longer write on the go on my phone (google drive), but like- i hardly did that anyway. if i do come up w smth i just put it in the notes app n then transcribe it

i'm a pretty fast typer so that's never been an issue hahaha the perks of being able to type blind is that i can just look at the notes and type as i read LMAO

anyway yeah! obsidian has graphs and stuff, but like i said, i don't really use them? it's all notes and text. so if you're a bit wrong in the head like me you could just make do with google docs (or whatever else you use) and a notepad opened to the side tbh it's pretty much what i do

wrangling the 10+ simultaneous plotlines is more my brain knowing no peace than it is obsidian honestly even though it likely would be so much easier if i sucked it up and learned how the graphs work hahah;,,

[jellazticious]

Do you have any recommendations for art references and or video's that might help me improve as an artist? Your art style is really inspiring to me and I'd love to get better at drawing because I haven't been on that grind recently of doing so!!!

Honestly your best bet is learning the RULES of art instead of the process, at least that's how I did it

I find it easier to NOT do the things that make it wrong than to learn ALL the things that make it good

There's like a million different ways to make art appealing but a lot of them typically avoid the same mistakes. It also makes the learning process customizable for you

To anyone else other than Gongus, I wanna say first that this post is heavily catered to cartoonier art styles but the links are for general art. I will also be laying down a lot of the things I learned from college (multimedia arts course)

Alright, first of all try to dabble up on some character design rules, here's a video that teaches it and a channel that has a series with critiquing people's portfolios

(she's not really insulting the portfolios btw, the thumbnails are just click baity)

Then also learn about the 12 animation principles because it can still be applied to non animation art like comics and stuff

Get yourself some line of action crammed in there. Regardless of art style, a lot of people struggle with stiffness, line of action is the counter attack to it

Optionally, if you're gonna learn line of action then you're gonna be doing gesture drawings to practice it. I suggest going to @adorkastock for reference images

Next up, color also have rules so here's the basics

I only linked that so you can smoothly transition here wjsndndm

But YEAH color fuckery is an underrated art cheat, you can get away with art that looks good without shading if you know how to toy with the colors right

Trouble making thumbnails?

Photography as an art form has got your back. Composition techniques can be applied to the drawing sort of art

Here are my personal tips now skskksks

1. Use your inspirations as reference. I got a sense of solidity when I saw the reference sheets for Wander Over Yonder and copying stylistic aspects from DST, TF2 comics, Clone High, and Pizza Tower.

SPEAKING OF TF2, I also wanna throw in this video about it's character design and other visual aspects (you'd only wanna watch the first half, the rest talks about the characters writingwise)

2. Another thing I do with references to make it easier is draw it at least two times. First time to trace it (directly or eyeballing it. You can also do with skeleton sketch or not but preferably give it a skeleton), then the second or third or fourth is to make it slowly morph into your style.

This will give you a sense of solidity, teaching your hand the traits that should be kept or exaggerated

3. If it looks like ass or you don't like it then that's okay. You DON'T have to post EVERYTHING you make. Sometimes you will feel like you draw a character you've always drawn wonky and that's because you just need to do warm up doodles.

I have SO MUCH sketches that I haven't posted and will never post because they're warm ups. Y'all think Pepperman is hard to draw? Y'all think I draw him good? I have good news for you, I fumble his face more often than not AND THATS OKAY

4. ANOTHER niche technique is to learn the keyboard shortcuts and other functions of your art program. Do not underestimate how much time that can spare you. It's gonna be tricky to find or get used to but it's gonna be so worth it

I learned you can alt+G on Krita one day and it makes a folder for your layers, total game changer. I can move layers at once instead of the old one by one with precision

5. Final note is to do the opposite of everything Vivsiepop does, it does not matter if you like her shows or not because time and time again critiques of her art and writing style breaks SO MANY RULES without UNDERSTANDING why they exist in the first place.

Art is like architecture, you need to know how to make a basic house before going straight for the fucking manor from Hello Neighbor 💥 or else you're never gonna figure out why the living room collapses everytime you flush the toilet

Anyway eeee, that's about everything I can teach, hope these help and if there's anything else to ask or add on, please do so!

Romanticizing the Small Moments: Tiny Joys, Big Shifts

“The littlest things in life are where we find real, true joy.”

We hear it all the time: “Romanticize your life.” It’s become this modern-day mantra—an invitation to live beautifully, intentionally, like you’re the main character in your own story. And while I love the energy behind that, I think there’s another piece we don’t talk about enough:

Romanticize the small moments.

Not just the dreamy vacations or aesthetic morning routines, but the in-between things. The quiet parts. The moments that feel small but hold so much.

To romanticize the small things means to fall in love with the little moments in your life—to be grateful for them, to let them shift your energy, to let them carry you quietly into something better.

I��ve been leaning into this lately because life is hard. Adulting is hard. And learning to find joy in these small, grounding moments makes all of it feel a little lighter. For me, it’s been a way to breathe through the stress, quiet the noise, and reconnect with myself. I’m so much calmer for it.

When you’re in a good place mentally—even briefly—it’s like the fog lifts. You remember what’s possible. You remember you’re capable. And sometimes, that one soft moment can be the thing that carries you back to hope.

The Little Moments That Hold You

Lately, I’ve been finding comfort in the tiniest things—things I used to overlook, but now feel like small lifelines. Like music. Whether it’s playing softly while I do everyday tasks, or turning it up loud and breaking out into a spontaneous dance session, there’s something about letting sound move through me that shifts everything.

Other days, it’s journaling with a warm cup of tea or coffee in hand. Or diving into a good book. Or walking with my dog—especially those longer, quieter walks where I can just be present. Honestly, she’s the perfect example of how to enjoy the little things. The way she stops to sniff flowers, soak up the sun, or just wag her tail at a passing breeze—it reminds me that joy doesn’t have to be grand to be real.

There was a moment recently that stayed with me: I was walking her in a beautiful park, and everything felt still. The light, the trees, the quiet. And for a moment, I wasn’t thinking about what I needed to fix or figure out—I was just there. And it was enough. It may seem simple, but sometimes when we pause and consciously take in beauty, even if just for a second, something shifts. Life doesn’t seem so heavy. You remember the softness that still exists.

These moments don’t just make me feel good—they change the energy I carry. They remind me I’m capable. And I see the ripple effect everywhere—in my art, in the way I move through my day, in my music, in my confidence.

The Mindset Shift

For a long time, I thought I needed big moments to feel better. Big change, big clarity, big relief. But what I’m learning is that sometimes the most healing thing you can do is notice what’s already here. The light through your window. A song that makes your chest feel soft. The way your dog nudges you just to be close.

Romanticizing the small things isn’t about pretending life is perfect—it’s about being present enough to find beauty in what’s real. It’s about allowing the little things to matter. Giving yourself permission to enjoy something just because it makes you feel good. No guilt. No pressure.

And sure, it’s not always easy. Sometimes you have to intentionally look for these moments. Sometimes you have to create them. But that’s okay. That’s part of the shift. You start to realize that joy isn’t just something that happens to you—it’s something you get to cultivate. Gently. Daily. In your own way.

How to Start Romanticizing

If you’re not sure where to begin, start small. Romanticizing your life doesn’t have to be this grand, aesthetic experience—it can be quiet, personal, and just for you.

Here are a few gentle ways to begin:

• Play music while you clean, cook, or get ready. Let the energy of it shift the space around you.

• Make your morning drink a ritual. Whether it’s tea or coffee, hold the cup with both hands. Take a breath.

• Step outside for no reason. Even for five minutes. Watch the sky. Feel the air.

• Light a candle, even if no one else will see it. Let soft lighting be something that soothes you.

• Take a photo of something that makes you pause. Not to post—just to remember it.

• Journal a small joy from the day. Or write a letter to your future self.

• Look your pet in the eyes and just be there. They always remind us what presence looks like.

These are small, but they matter. And if you make space for them, they start to shift how you feel in your own life. They’re not about perfection—they’re about presence. And peace.

A Gentle Reminder Before You Go

You don’t have to wait for a perfect day or a big breakthrough to feel something beautiful. Sometimes all it takes is a small moment—a quiet sip, a favorite song, the warmth of your dog pressed against your side.

These little things are always around us. They’re easy to miss, but they’re always offering to hold us. And the more we notice them, the more we start to believe: maybe life doesn’t have to be perfect to feel good. Maybe this moment, right now, is enough.

So today, I hope you find one small moment to romanticize. One little thing that brings you back to yourself.

Let it be simple. Let it be soft. Let it be yours.

We’re all figuring it out. But if we can hold onto the small joys together, maybe the hard parts get a little softer. Let’s keep blooming—one moment at a time.

If you’re on this journey too—of slowing down, healing, and finding beauty in the now—let’s stay connected. Leave a comment below And tell me what’s one small moment you’ve noticed lately that brought you a little piece or joy? ✨

Product diffusion from the past -- Is it a bad sign that I've barely heard of these?

I really enjoyed this week's case, which covered the early product diffusion process of four offerings: a pre-packaged slice of peanut butter, a silver-lined bandage, Sirius/XM radios, and an "odor printer". I was struck by the absurdity of most of these offerings, despite the very real coverage they earned at the time, and the fact that with the exception of one, I'd never even heard of them. The case asked for our ranked analysis of which products will diffuse most quickly/broadly. Here are my thoughts:

Sirus/XM radio. While known to me as a single entity, Sirius and XM were once competitors in the emerging pay-for-radio space. The business case is clear: commuters and drivers who spend significant time in their car each day were unsatisfied with the unreliable, ad-riddled, and un-customizable radio experience. Sirius/XM had insight into their customer base, size, and could estimate who was willing to pay for more targeted, high quality content. Pair this with a deal to offer the service with car purchases from GM, Ford, and Chrysler, and you've removed significant barriers for customers to adopt the product. No wonder this is the only offering I've heard of.

Westaim Biomedical silver bandages. As someone who grew up in the small town of Exeter, NH I was excited to see a company from Exeter represented in the case. The bad news: I, nor my friends or family, have ever heard of it. However, that does not mean it was all bad for Westaim. While anecdotally it seems the silver bandages did not reach OTC consumer appeal, the company had insight into its addressable market and proven efficacy in medical applications like chronic wounds. My guess is that the patent was acquired or is maybe used in more specialized hospital settings today, which is still a relative win for diffusion.

Pre-packaged slice of peanut butter. This offering feels like nothing more than a spoof food item, and I doubt it had mass diffusion in the consumer market. On the plus side, the company did appear to try and solve a problem faced by its consumers (peanut butter pulled on soft bread when making a PB&J) and thus had a better chance of diffusion than one less researched. While I believe society is always looking for a shortcut, this might be one step too far and too unnecessary. Maybe the better product is the R&D put into non-stick packaging--now THAT could be useful in several applications.

"Odor spray/printer". This idea was both ridiculous and broad. Who were they appealing to? The article mentioned "foodies", or people with a heightened appreciation for the value of good smell, but overall the product strategy felt directionless and unattainable. Seeing as I've never heard of such a thing, I imagine this idea died before there was even a product to test.

Doing these types of thought exercises has been valuable as my Branding group thinks about our project addressing Peloton. Peloton has most likely reached its peak diffusion when it comes to its hardware bike. Peloton now has to re-brand to diffuse a new product offering, its fitness software, and gauge a whole new group of customers for potential adoption. This won't be easy, as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and even gyms have begun offering similar content.

iirc a while ago you mentioned disliking microsoft - just wondering if you have any recommendations for another os to use and guides to read on it? ive been considering switching from microsoft for a while now but because ive had my computers for a while it feels like a big change

i get it! i've been split pretty much 50/50 windows and mac for my whole life (with some experience with linux) and i'd say they arent all that different in the most important ways. the barrier for mac, which is quite a big one, is that you need apple hardware like a macbook. however, if you acquire one, you'd probably find the major things like the file system, using applications, etc are very intuitive regardless of what specific OS you are most used to. On mac, most things are very streamlined and self contained, applications do not use a central registry and while they store data in shared folders (for example, "application_support" which is roughly equivalent to something like "APPDATA" on windows), applications are mostly contained within themselves. for an illustrative example: firefox has a .app package in the applications folder, and stores its cache and history in application support, and that's it. as a result, uninstalling apps is almost always a matter of deleting the app file and not using a central uninstaller in settings (though some more complex apps have their own uninstaller). shortcuts and aliases are very rare, and in my opinion most things are easier to find than on windows. its difficult for me to explain exactly what i mean, but there is only one "layer" to macOS. windows is built on principles of backwards compatibility, so there can be a lot of junk where a more central cohesive system would be easier to use and less likely to break. one of my strongest frustrations with windows is that it has two entirely separate (3 if you count the registry) applications for changing settings, and they look and behave completely differently. apple's cohesion is a trade off, as it requires axing functionality that isn't common or popularly necessary anymore (RIP 32 bit programs), but i find it's absolutely worth it. in all, the way macOS functions is a lot like how a phone does, in terms of the way its designed, though i'd argue its more like an android than an iphone. it has a reputation for being locked down and less customizable, but i'd say that isn't accurate for most useful or desirable tinkering. it requires using the terminal and learning some unix commands but it's quite straightforward once you do, and less likely to break or frustrate you as windows is (in my opinion). linux of course is leaps and bounds above both proprietary systems but that's not really my area of expertise. at the end of the day, windows is accessible, that's its biggest advantage and the source of a lot of its problems. it has to run on old architecture, cling to obsolete and archaic systems because that's what people know and expect, and appeal to microsoft execs by jamming in new useless features to impress clueless shareholders. the main issues with microsoft is that it wants to be apple, and its management pushing cortana, and the all things people hate about windows 8, 10, and 11 is completely at odds with its fundamental design principles. that's why its so terrible and so ugly to me. macOS is like if those features were thought out, intuitive, and part of a well designed whole, instead of being wasteful, bloated, and a constant annoyance to the people who actually desire the unique things windows has to bring to the table.

oh and to answer your actual question since this just turned into one of my rambles: i would recommend trying out a linux distribution (like ubuntu or debian) by booting it on a flash drive and playing around with it to get a feel for the file system and other core aspects. its designed somewhat similarly to mac since they are both unix-like but its free and open source. if you hate it then its probably best to not spend a lot on a macbook. if you live near an apple store (or another dept. store that has electronics display models) you can go in and play around on one. there's lots of guides online, though i find its best to just fuck around and if things go wrong, seek answers online. also one last thing is that if you do decide to go with a mac, its no problem to just keep using windows for what you need it to. i have an old PC laptop i use to play video games that only run on windows after all.

IK Multimedia T-RackS 6 Review

IK Multimedia T-RackS 6 brings versatility and analog warmth to mixing and mastering, offering a powerful combination of tools designed for professional audio production. While it’s not an all-in-one production suite, it excels at providing precise control and creative flexibility for mastering engineers and producers.

Key Features

T-RackS 6 is packed with over 60 modules, including EQs, compressors, reverb, and creative effects like LO-FI Punch and Dual Spring Reverb. These tools are all presented in a user-friendly interface that balances complexity with clarity.

The Master Match X module stands out, providing auto-mastering by analyzing your reference track and applying matching EQ, compression, and tonal balance to your mix. It’s a significant time-saver and delivers polished results with minimal effort.

Modules like Channel Strip X and Bass ONE are tailored for tonal shaping. Channel Strip X combines EQ, transient shaping, and dynamics, making it a versatile tool for vocals and drums. Bass ONE focuses on tightening and enhancing low-end frequencies, ensuring your bass is punchy and clear.

The Standalone Mastering Console is another highlight. It offers a dedicated space to master entire albums, complete with tools for track sequencing, metadata editing, and exporting.

Creative Workflow

For me, T-RackS 6 makes the mastering process intuitive and engaging. The modular design means you can build custom signal chains, keeping only the tools you need in your workspace.

The Analog-inspired modules like LO-FI Punch and Dual Spring Reverb stand out for their ability to add warmth, texture, and depth to mixes. Whether you’re crafting subtle enhancements or bold effects, these tools provide flexibility without overwhelming you with options.

The Master Match X module streamlines mastering by offering a shortcut to professional tonal balance. Paired with A/B/C/D comparisons, it allows you to experiment and refine settings confidently.

Presets are another major strength, categorized by purpose, such as mastering, vocals, and instruments. They’re a great starting point for beginners while remaining customizable for advanced users.

Room for Improvement

Despite its versatility, T-RackS 6 does have some limitations. The absence of noise suppression and spectral editing may be a drawback for those working with raw or untreated recordings.

Additionally, while the EQ and compression tools are effective, they lack advanced features like precise bandwidth control, which may frustrate users who prefer detailed tweaking.

Who’s It For?

T-RackS 6 is ideal for mastering engineers and producers who want analog-inspired tools with a focus on tonal shaping and creative control. It’s best suited for those with some experience in mastering, as the learning curve may be steep for beginners.

Verdict

While T-RackS 6 isn’t designed to replace your entire production suite, it’s an outstanding tool for mastering and refining tracks. The Analog-inspired modules, Master Match X, and Standalone Mastering Console stand out for their quality and usability.

If you’re looking for a mastering suite that combines analog warmth with modern precision, T-RackS 6 is a fantastic option. It delivers on its promises, providing professional results while inspiring creativity in the process.

Romanticizing the Small Moments: Tiny Joys, Big Shifts

“The littlest things in life are where we find real, true joy.”

We hear it all the time: “Romanticize your life.” It’s become this modern-day mantra—an invitation to live beautifully, intentionally, like you’re the main character in your own story. And while I love the energy behind that, I think there’s another piece we don’t talk about enough:

Romanticize the small moments.

Not just the dreamy vacations or aesthetic morning routines, but the in-between things. The quiet parts. The moments that feel small but hold so much.

To romanticize the small things means to fall in love with the little moments in your life—to be grateful for them, to let them shift your energy, to let them carry you quietly into something better.

I’ve been leaning into this lately because life is hard. Adulting is hard. And learning to find joy in these small, grounding moments makes all of it feel a little lighter. For me, it’s been a way to breathe through the stress, quiet the noise, and reconnect with myself. I’m so much calmer for it.

When you’re in a good place mentally—even briefly—it’s like the fog lifts. You remember what’s possible. You remember you’re capable. And sometimes, that one soft moment can be the thing that carries you back to hope.

The Little Moments That Hold You

Lately, I’ve been finding comfort in the tiniest things—things I used to overlook, but now feel like small lifelines. Like music. Whether it’s playing softly while I do everyday tasks, or turning it up loud and breaking out into a spontaneous dance session, there’s something about letting sound move through me that shifts everything.

These moments don’t just make me feel good—they change the energy I carry. They remind me I’m capable. And I see the ripple effect everywhere—in my art, in the way I move through my day, in my music, in my confidence.

The Mindset Shift

For a long time, I thought I needed big moments to feel better. Big change, big clarity, big relief.

And sure, it’s not always easy. Sometimes you have to intentionally look for these moments. Sometimes you have to create them. But that’s okay. That’s part of the shift. You start to realize that joy isn’t just something that happens to you—it’s something you get to cultivate. Gently. Daily. In your own way.

How to Start Romanticizing

If you’re not sure where to begin, start small. Romanticizing your life doesn’t have to be this grand, aesthetic experience—it can be quiet, personal, and just for you.

Here are a few gentle ways to begin:

• Play music while you clean, cook, or get ready. Let the energy of it shift the space around you.

These are small, but they matter. And if you make space for them, they start to shift how you feel in your own life. They’re not about perfection—they’re about presence. And peace.

A Gentle Reminder Before You Go

You don’t have to wait for a perfect day or a big breakthrough to feel something beautiful. Sometimes all it takes is a small moment—a quiet sip, a favorite song, the warmth of your dog pressed against your side.

These little things are always around us. They’re easy to miss, but they’re always offering to hold us. And the more we notice them, the more we start to believe: maybe life doesn’t have to be perfect to feel good. Maybe this moment, right now, is enough.

So today, I hope you find one small moment to romanticize. One little thing that brings you back to yourself.

Let it be simple. Let it be soft. Let it be yours.

We’re all figuring it out. But if we can hold onto the small joys together, maybe the hard parts get a little softer. Let’s keep blooming—one moment at a time.

If you’re on this journey too—of slowing down, healing, and finding beauty in the now—let’s stay connected. Leave a comment below And tell me what’s one small moment you’ve noticed lately that brought you a little piece or joy? ✨

What are the benefits of choosing a one-way cab service from Surat to Mumbai

Traveling between cities can often be a daunting task, especially when you have multiple options at your disposal. If you’re planning a trip from Surat to Mumbai, considering a one-way cab service can be a convenient choice. Not only does it provide comfort and flexibility, but it also eliminates the hassle of return travel arrangements. In this article, we will explore the numerous benefits of opting for a Surat to Mumbai cab service focusing on the advantages of a one-way cab from Surat to Mumbai. We’ll also highlight how Rk Cabs can make your journey smoother and more enjoyable.

Convenience and Comfort

1. Door-to-Door Service

One of the primary benefits of choosing a one-way cab service is the convenience it offers. With Rk Cabs, you can enjoy door-to-door service, meaning the cab will pick you up from your specified location in Surat and drop you off at your destination in Mumbai. This saves you the hassle of traveling to a bus or train station, making the journey more comfortable.

2. Personal Space

Traveling by cab provides a level of personal space that public transportation simply cannot match. You can relax in a private vehicle, listen to your favorite music, or catch up on work without the distractions often found in buses or trains. This is especially beneficial for business travelers who need to prepare for meetings or conferences.

3. Flexible Timings

When you opt for a one-way cab service, you have the flexibility to choose your departure time. Whether you prefer to travel early in the morning or late at night, Rk Cabs accommodates your schedule, allowing you to plan your trip according to your convenience.

Cost-Effectiveness

Affordable Rates

Many travelers often assume that hiring a cab is expensive compared to public transport. However, with Rk Cabs, you can find competitive pricing for a Surat to Mumbai cab service. When you consider the convenience and comfort offered, the cost becomes justified. Moreover, you avoid hidden charges often associated with public transport.

No Extra Charges for Luggage

Public transportation often has strict luggage restrictions and additional fees for extra bags. With a one-way cab service, you can carry as much luggage as you need without worrying about extra charges. This is particularly advantageous for families or individuals carrying equipment for work.

Safety and Reliability

Professional Drivers

Choosing  Rk Cab means you’ll be traveling with professional and experienced drivers. They are well-acquainted with the Surat to Mumbai route, ensuring a safe and efficient journey. Their knowledge of traffic patterns and shortcuts can significantly reduce travel time.

Insurance and Responsibility

When you travel with a reputable cab service, your safety is a priority. Rk Cabs ensures that all vehicles are insured, providing peace of mind during your journey. In the unlikely event of an accident, you are protected, which is not always the case with public transportation.

Time Efficiency

Faster Travel

Traveling by cab can often be faster than other modes of transport. With Rk Cabs, you can avoid the waiting times associated with buses and trains, as well as the potential delays from multiple stops.

Holiday Hacks: 3 Time-Saving Kitchen Tips

The holidays look a lot different for most of us this year: holiday parties, school concerts, family gatherings, shopping, and vacations may not be happening quite the same way - yet somehow we will all still be VERY busy. Give yourself the gift of taking some shortcuts and holiday hacks  to take some of the pressure off so you can relax and be merry [because nobody wants a scrooge in the kitchen].

Go Semi-Homemade

Clearly, we are very pro-cooking around here, but sometimes taking shortcuts can turn a potential take-out night into a total kitchen win. For example:

Grab a rotisserie chicken and incorporate it into soups or chilis so you can reap the benefits of high-quality protein without spending extra time cooking it. Shred the chicken and stuff lettuce leaves with a squeeze of lime for lunch.

Start with your favorite frozen pizza dough, then add your favorite jarred sauce and vegetable toppings plus a sprinkle of flavorful cheese to make it a meal!

Buy pre-chopped produce, especially those hard-to-manage vegetables (ahem, squash) that are more time-intensive to prepare. Toss with a tablespoon of olive oil and roast for a side dish or added to salads during the week.

Cook Once, Eat Twice

Batch cooking is an efficient way to keep up with your healthy eating goals no matter what time of year. It essentially means cooking more than what you need in the moment so you can take advantage of having all of your cooking tools and gadgets out (read: it’s way more efficient!). Not to be confused with leftovers, batch cooking usually refers to one component so you can repurpose it later. For instance:

Need rice or quinoa for your Monday night meal? Make a large batch so you can easily incorporate it in salads and grain bowls all week long.

Making hard-boiled eggs? It takes the same amount of time to make six as it does to make two. Enjoy as a snack, crumble into salads, or mash with some avocado.

Baking sweet potatoes? Make a few more than you need and you’ll have the base for an easy, customizable lunch ready to go. You can also purée or mash the flesh for baked goods and use in place of pumpkin in a recipe.

Sheet Pan and One Pot Meals 

Raise your hand if your least favorite part of cooking is the clean up. We feel you! Make it easier on yourself by searching for one-dish meals to seriously cut down on time spent doing the dishes. Here are a few to get you started:

Create baking pockets by lining foil with parchment then crimping for perfectly roasted fish that stays juicy, never dry.

Roasting your favorite protein with seasonal produce is a tasty no-fuss way to incorporate a few servings of vegetables into a meal

Still haven’t learned how to use your Instant Pot? Now would be a good time! You can get frozen proteins to the table fast with this safe and simple pressure cooker. A simple 12-minute recipe: frozen protein [like chicken thighs] + favorite jarred tomato sauce + a jar of olives = yummy cacciatore that will have everyone running to the table for dinner. If you use plant-based protein, like dried chickpeas, just soak the dried beans overnight and be sure they are covered with fluid [jarred sauce + some broth] before cooking in Instant Pot.

Y'all, there are accessibility programs for text-to-speech that can be used instead of this guy's stuff. In fact, every phone and every operating system comes with them. As a disabled person who uses text to speech, I find it's much better to use the following that's built into operating systems and/or privacy-oriented extensions for browsers.

Just so y'all know, I did not include any AI TTS software such as Voice Dream, TTSMaker, and Natural Reader since those require uploads to convert to speech. Below is apps and settings that function fairly well, and do not use uploads (as they are locally converted on your device).

Text to Speech (TTS)

For Microsoft suite, there's a read-aloud option in the immersive reader view in Edge, docs, and other tools. In any document, click View > Immersive Reader, and then press the play button that appears. It comes with a variety of options. Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari, and other browsers also have read aloud options built in, but there is also the excellent Read Aloud extension that I've used at times. The great thing about Read Aloud extension is that's it's built for privacy too -- as the synthesis of turning text to speech is done locally on your computer and not through online servers. You can even use it to read PDF documents in your browser tab; I've tested it and it works well for AO3 fanfics.

Android has a Select-to-speak option that I've used. This is found under Settings < Accessibility. Once activated, you can then click on the text you want spoken and options will come up. It's customizable with a variety of voices.

Every Apple device comes with Spoken Content feature. This feature has a wide variety of options, and its speak selection option will speak the content of a webpage, eBook, or whatever through the use of keyboard shortcuts. You can find this feature under Settings < Accessibility. It functions similarly to the Android select-to-speak.

Ice Cream eReader has TTS options as well, but it's a Windows / Android program. You open the eBook file in it, and can use the settings to turn on the TTS. As it's local to your computer, it can be used offline.

Balaboka is another option for Windows users. It's a program you install in Windows, and it has a pretty robust set of features and customization. It also reads a variety of files, and can produce an sound file in a variety of formats. Since it's on one's computer, it doesn't necessarily need Internet connections to function (though you can use it to read websites too). Various eReaders like Libby or Kobo also have built in text to speech options under their settings (usually listed in accessibility part of settings).

Moonreader has TTS options in its settings. I use Moonreader a lot, and find it does a good job with its TTS options. It's free to use, though you can buy it to access extra features. (Buy once, no subs.) It's usable on most devices, though I've never tested it on Apple Devices. I use it mostly on Windows or Android. It can be used offline or online.

Calibre is a robust eReader that also has TTS options in its settings. It has a wide variety of options and voices for its TTS. This is an open-source project and also free to use. You can use it on Windows, Linux, Mac, portable usb drives, android, or apple devices. It can be used offline or online.

Screenreaders

Screenreaders are more comprehensive than TTS. While TTS tends to focus on the text only, screenreaders can also read menus, emojis, links, spreadsheets, taskbars, etc. Screenreaders are commonly used by those with limited eyesight or are blind. They may also be used by people who may find text read out loud easier for navigation or understanding the content.

Again, all operating systems and mobile phones have screenreaders available in the Accessibility settings. All of the built in screenreaders have multiple language options.

For Mac/Apple, Voice Over does a great job and is the most popular screenreader for those using Apple Products. It's built into all Apple devices.

For Linux, there's the Speakup app, which does a pretty good job at screenreading.

NVDA is an opensource project by disabled people and it's free! It's one of the best screenreaders I've used. It has a lot of great features, plus it's portable! You can put it on an USB Stick and then use it on any computer. It has a wide range of languages too.

Chrome has a screenreader extension. I've never tested it but some disabled folks I know like it.

Firefox has several screenreader extensions. Fire Vox is one of the more popular ones as it also has TTS functionality too. It uses keyboard shortcuts to activate it, and has various customization features to tailor it to a person's needs.

Point is, do your research on the options out there. There's a lot of free TTS and screenreaders that can do a better job than Weitzman's Booktoapp and speechify. The ones I highlighted above are all free plus they don't steal people's works.

On a related note: If you need a speech to text option, all of the above operating systems and browsers have that built into their accessibility menu. If you have money to spend, the Dragon Software Suite is what's used by professionals for dictation and comes with built in privacy and extensive features.

Hi; I don't know if you're still following the word-stream stuff, but the app is back online on the app store as "booktok - books and podcasts". The reviews marking it as having AI scraped data are still on the page itself, even though the name has changed, and duckduckgo still directs to their page if you look up "word-stream audiobooks"-- although if I don't know how long that will last. The website is seemingly gone, but the app still presumably has access to all the stolen works in the database.

Best regards, -someone else whose fics were stolen

yup

word-stream is back

it just calls itself—in an obvious attempt to profit from the TikTok upheaval—BookTok, now. and it’s not just the app, either: the whole website is back online, same as it was just before Cliff Weitzman took it down.

(in case you missed it, here are the original story & the update.)

fortunately (so far) the fanfiction category hasn't been re-added, but if you go to the store page for the app you can see that it’s still using 'fan-created universes' as advertising.

Weitzman didn't register the app under his own name this time, but through something called 'Oak Prime Inc'. hilariously, however, the email address listed in BookTok's privacy policy still refers to word-stream.com, so if Cliff was trying to scrub the connection between Speechify and his BookTok app, he didn't do a very thorough job.

here's the thing (and i'm about to put this up in a separate, more easily digestible post): if you take a look at the terms & conditions of Cliff's other platform, Speechify, it claims a truly comprehensive license to use the works uploaded to that platform in any way Cliff sees fit, including publishing and monetizing it elsewhere. and i keep seeing posts on Reddit and Bluesky from both readers and writers, happily using the Speechify app to read fanfic, advanced reader copies and their own yet-to-be-published work to them.

this is a BAD IDEA. Cliff has already proven that he will take work authored by others without their permission and redistribute it wholesale if he thinks it might make him money.

Cliff is the financial beneficiary of both Speechify and word-stream/booktokapp. it seems pretty obvious to me that he's trying to claim, via Speechify's terms & conditions, that every work uploaded to Speechify is his to do with whatever he pleases, which naturally includes moving them to this other platform so he can charge people for two subscriptions instead of just the one.

thank you so much for keeping an eye on this, anon, and for reaching out!! like i said, another post will go up today about the above, but i'm going to ask you all to help ensure that my posts & my name aren't the only ones giving voice to this message. when i tried to approach people about this issue on social media, often the—completely justified!—response was 'why should I take your word for it?' and Wikipedia only allowed the mention of Weitzman's copyright infringement to remain on his page when 'The Endless Appetite for Fanfiction' was listed as a source.

it can't just be me. DON’T take my word for it. do your own research (i would love to be proven wrong about this!), talk to your friends, engage with posts on social media similar to the ones i mentioned above (those are just some examples, don’t pile on to the OPs!) and make sure people know what they're jeopardizing. help me protect authors from money-grubbing shitheads like this one.

Shelf Companies: An Attractive Option for Business Ventures

In the ever-changing globe of business, time is often of the essence. Entrepreneurs and established companies alike seek ways to expedite their ventures without compromising on credibility or compliance. This is where shelf companies step in – a concept gaining popularity for its ability to offer a shortcut to establishing a corporate presence. Let’s devel into the world of shelf companies, exploring what they are, how they work, and why they're becoming an increasingly attractive option for business ventures.

What are Shelf Companies?

Shelf companies, also known as aged or ready-made companies, are business entities that have been legally registered and left "on the shelf" by their founders. Unlike startups, which begin from scratch, shelf companies are pre-incorporated entities that have no trading history or activity. They are essentially dormant entities awaiting purchase by individuals or businesses seeking to expedite the process of establishing a corporate presence.

How does a Shelf Company Work?

The process of acquiring a shelf company is relatively straightforward. A seller, typically a specialized firm or individual, registers a company with the intention of selling it at a later date. These companies are often set up with generic names and standard articles of incorporation, making them easily customizable to suit the needs of the purchaser. Once a buyer expresses interest and completes the purchase, they gain control of the company and can commence business activities immediately. 

Why Choose a Shelf Company?

The appeal of shelf companies lies in their ability to offer several advantages over starting a company from scratch:

1. Time-Saving: By purchasing a shelf company, entrepreneurs can bypass the lengthy process of incorporating a new entity. This can be particularly beneficial for those with time-sensitive business opportunities.

2. Credibility: Shelf companies, especially those with a longer history of existence, may project an image of stability and credibility to clients, investors, and lenders. This can be advantageous in competitive industries where trust is paramount.

3. Access to Contracts: In some cases, having an established company with a history of existence may provide easier access to contracts and financing opportunities compared to newly formed entities.

4. International Expansion: Shelf companies can be especially useful for businesses looking to expand internationally, as they may facilitate entry into foreign markets where establishing a new entity can be complex and time-consuming.

However, it's essential to weigh these benefits against potential drawbacks, such as higher initial costs, limited customization options, and the need for thorough due diligence to ensure the company's history is clean and free of liabilities.

Shelf companies offer a compelling solution for individuals and businesses looking to expedite the process of establishing a corporate presence. By providing a shortcut to incorporation, they enable entrepreneurs to seize opportunities quickly and project credibility from day one. However, it's crucial for prospective buyers to conduct thorough due diligence and assess the suitability of a shelf company for their specific needs before making a purchase.
