What you make is what you pay attention to, what you spend your time on

wait do people read first person stories and think they're the ones in the story???

Saw people talking about not liking first person, which is fair, but their reasoning was like "I would not do that" and I don't understand that mindset.

First person stories are still about a character. A character making their own decisions. First person isn't about you???? At least I thought it wasn't. What am I missing? I've always seen first person as just a more in-depth look into a character's mind and stricter POV. Not as a reader stand-in.

>Join a union

>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on

>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members

>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on

A woman in my hometown was convinced that people were secretly throwing dog poop into her yard because she couldn't see clear tracks to where it was.

She complained about this publicly at a citywide council meeting.

I wish everyone who was ever into knock down drag out fandom fights would direct all that energy towards their city council, I feel like that would transform society overnight.

Just found out I was thirsty not by receiving a signal from my body about it but by dozing off and dreaming about cold water from different alluring angles. This is great. I think all my wants and needs should be revealed to me this way

This has to be an AU already right? I’ve never seen it. I’m doing it. My city now

The angst potential alone haunts me. How long do you think he waited for Ford?? When did it start to sink in that nobody was coming to save him, that nobody would miss him? Would anybody even want him back? How long did it take for his anger, his heartbreak, his grief to turn into acceptance and a belief that this was divine retribution? How long did he work, how many jobs did he take, how much wealth did he accrue, how many brushes with death did he have until he believed he’d “earned” the right to go home and see his brother?? Many such questions. I need to go deeper

Time Keeps Ticking... (29/30 NaPoWriMo 2025)

By Daniel Paiz There are just a couple of more entries for NaPoWriMo 2025 before April is finished. At this point, a good deal of folks are over it or have started to tune out. That’s understandable. However, this too closely reflects public opinion towards civic engagement. Getting involved doesn’t mean simply voting. It also involves keeping up on happenings around you, learning what’s next,…

Red Book update: art community in china tends to call good artists “teacher” “mom/dad” and “boss” and wonder what Americans say to good artists. Americans have expressed that they mainly compliment the art rather than the person, comparing the art to a good meal and joking about eating the art.

Chinese people love this apparently
