Email marketing - pitching to an audience that includes me

It seems many current business people recommend email marketing and there are some wonderful tools to create visually pleasing and slick emails. My inbox is testament to that. However, I get a fair few emails that I don’t enjoy. The first thing is, they suggest at promises, which quickly turn out to be untrue or providing selective information from the real story. Secondly, they aren’t a clear…

Does Mr. Turner like rubbing his “son’s” successful career in Dinkleberg’s face??

He does! He brags about Timmy's success to every person within the neighborhood's vicinity. Mr. Turner loves how successful his son is! It really secures his reputation at the neighborhood HOA meetings they host at their house.

Timmy's worked very hard to gain more successes than failures. The more successful he is, the greater his family's social standing!! And the less he gets to overhear his dad ranting to the neighborhood about his failures.

"I remember Harry emerging from the early documents rather organically. Rostov drew the somewhat famous image of disgrace to the uniform and Robert wrote 'You’re a cop, Harry' into the pitch document for the investors, and from that it came together rather quickly."

pls consider the hilarity of: BATFAMILY EDITION OF CLUE. Who killed Bruce Wayne in Wayne Manor?

Was it Alfred, Dick, Jason, Tim, Damian, Steph, or Cass?

Did they use Alfred's feather duster, a crowbar, Damian's longsword, brass knuckles, Bruce's "World's Okayest Dad" mug, or a shotgun?

Was it in the garden, the abandoned ballroom, the pool, Bruce's study, the roof, the Batcave, or in front of Jason's suit memorial?

So, it's been just over a year since I posted my first and so far only finished ArSen fic on AO3. How the FUCK has it been that long? It feels hard to believe that much time has passed (not gonna lie, I thought I would've written much more by now, but life has been a struggle lately and although I do have one decent WIP on the go it's been hard to feel like working on it).

Anyway, if for some reason you managed to miss me posting about it before and you find yourself in the mood for some Hilmes/Zandeh smut, you can check it out here. To those who already read and left comments and/or kudos, thank you, it means so much to me that you took the time to do that!

Also @tired-reader-writer, because I know we posted at roughly the same time I went to check and... Happy one year anniversary to Winds of Wolfsong on AO3!

guess who's stuck in a group project where no one is even really doing SHIT and now i have to probably do the whole thing by myself (◉‿◉) so the reason why i'm barely even writing anymore is bc of my two 8 week courses, sorry about that <33

500 words is too many for a job application. What if I write that many for my tattoo email instead.

The ads on Twitter are insane because all the real companies left but there’s so much stuff there that’s legally dubious I don’t know how they get away with platforming it? I just saw an ad for AI glasses and one of the uses was to record meetings and use that data to learn and help you with work shit but there are laws about recording people especially company data like the whole thing is a massive security risk. not to mention it won’t work but whatever.

a list of media inspired by, about, or loosely adapted from the life of mara banks:

a number of mid-quality songs by mid-quality bands and the mid-quality ex-boyfriends/lovers of mara's. that subgenre of rock/alt/indie/knockoff fall out boy that tells one-sided stories about attractive but damaged^tm girls with daddy issues who outright ruined the guy's life. accuracy and scathingness vary from song to song. you've heard one or two on the radio before their shelf life was up.

a comedy stand-up routine from one of mara's Big Exes. he never identifies her by name, she's this actress i was with for a while. they're less insulting and more utterly damning by their truthful (sometimes exaggerated for the sake of a laugh) reports of her unstable, mara-typical behavior during their time together, and she becomes a recurring joke throughout. she snuck into a show once, sat and sipped at the far-off bar with a far-off look, and stayed for about ten minutes. when he later landed a deal with netflix to film and release a stand-up special, he didn't include the routine in the material; mara doesn't know if that makes her feel better or worse.

starstruck: the banks story. a lifetime movie released a handful of years after arthur and donna's deaths, capitalizing on the tragedy in the hasty way that lifetime movies do. cheap, gently exploitative, the bad type of campy. it made mara (and her sister) pretty angry at the time, but now on a good day she can watch it with a bottle of wine and laugh at the sheer inaccurate nerve. the character of mara isn't around very much and is laughably depicted as a docile sweetheart rather than the spitfire that even pre-end times mara was.

mr. and mrs. banks. a 2020s biopic that also features young mara only briefly, instead covering her parents' marriage and careers with a thematic focus on their tragic love story in tinseltown. it's not a bad piece of work at all, written by a highly-regarded husband and wife duo. a turning point in mara's life: she possessively pursues and wins the role of her own mother, blonde wigs and all. it's a deeply emotionally invasive experience, obviously. and weird as hell falling in fake love with her own dad('s on-camera imitator). she turns in a hell of a performance and comes out the other end with a better reputation and a renewed if slightly cautious interest in hiring her, having reminded hollywood that hey, this girl can act. her world turns inside out, a psychological reckoning. she shakes off some bad habits, picks up a couple others; she dyes her hair blonde during the press tour - a suggestion from a studio suit to emphasize her natural close resemblance to her mother and thus promote public interest in the film (the americans who still remember the complete banks family unit: that's her now? wow, she looks just like her mom.) sadly, fatefully, she lives a long time seeing her mother in every mirror she passes, which has exactly the effect on her psyche that you think. an actress who came back from the dead even deader. tragedy come full circle. meet the new mara banks. a much, much slower kind of car crash.

I get that there's likely a lot of issues on the coding/rigging/physics end of things for realistically depicting fat people in 3D video games -- Especially for customizeable characters where there's so many variables you have to account for when... the character does anything, but at the same time.

There's so much effort put into boob physics, hair physics, etc. There's so many badly rendered games that only feature thin characters. If you can figure out how to render dicks, if you can't be assed to add good physics, you can spare the effort to add fat people.
