This Month in History - November

There’s quite a few pop culture landmark anniversaries this month, here are a few:

Nov. 2, 1992: Harvest Moon released

In Nov. 1992, Neil Young’s 19th studio album was released. The 90s was a really great era for Old Neil and this was actually one of my favorites from that prolific era. It has a real classic folk rock sound that harkens back to Old Neil’s best 70s work. Still sounds timeless. Happy 30th HM!

Nov. 2, 2007: American Gangster opens

In Nov. 2007, Ridley Scott’s crime saga was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2017. Happy 15 AG!

Nov. 3, 2017: Last Flag Flying opens

In Nov. 2017, Richard Linklater’s pseudo-sequel to The Last Detail was released. It at once a road movie, a comedy about men of a certain age, a commentary on both Vietnam and Iraq Wars, and an anti-war / pro-military statement! Bravo to the cast, especially Bryan Cranston! Here is my movie review from 2017. Happy 5 LFF!

Nov. 6, 2012: Music From Another Dimension released

In Nov. 2012, Aerosmith’s 15th studio album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2017. Happy 10 MFAD!

Terror Poll: Who Do You Marry?

Tell us about your man in the tags. (Yes I skipped marines. I am limited in slots)

Idk I just go feral when the Plot necessitates the main character going back to the same point in time in order to beat the bad guy. It's like Groundhog Day, but the entire universe is at stake. Bonus points the angrier the villain gets at the hero's annoyingly indomitable spirit.

“The only thing that we're not doing is we're not shooting [immigrants] who come across the border, because of course, the Biden administration would charge us with murder.” -Greg Abbott, Texas governor

Hey, so in case y'all aren't aware, the governor of Texas is defying the Supreme Court's order to take out razor wire on the border that severely endangers the lives of people trying to cross, under the grounds that Texas is protecting itself from invasion. Abbott is threatening to pit the Texas national guard against Federal troops. It's probably a bluff, but praying for Republicans to be rational rarely works. Extremists are literally calling for succession from the United States.

I don't think it'll come to fighting, but the fact Abbott is so openly defying federal orders and blatantly threatening militant action is pretty terrifying. Especially if he's just allowed to do this, which would set a very dangerous precedent for what states can get away with.

[selamat-linting]

i hate august

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

its four days til the conference and i threw my back out completely. the pain is dizzying. OH NO.

this IS my fault. I DID ignore the prof saying "this stage of the project involves lifting something very heavy so have AT LEAST one other student help you when you need to lift"

I instead decided, for some idiotic reason, to solo deadlift the sucker (a gallon bucket of adobe plaster) myself.

onto a table.

that was almost my height.

...so anyway yeah I'm STUPID

[lightanight]

the people responsible for the flag poles in my street are not doing a great job this year it's devastating

[bleuberrygliscor]

i know its 90% venting at the bleakness of american politics but like...

it really fucking blows to know that most people are probably not gonna vote this year. i cant wait for the fallout of that.

Wet dreams are strangely freeing to write because you don't have to worry so much about the why and how and even where things are happening. It's a dream. It doesn't have to make total sense or always be in order or have a reason for what's going on. You can be symbolic with stuff or just make something happen because it's a dream - things are just Like That. And because it's a dream, you can explore ideas or interactions without worrying about it affecting the "real world" interactions of your muse. It can just be fun nonsense.

So here's a little sinday advice - if you're not confident in writing smut, try writing a wet dream. It's a great way to get the practice in.
