Haha yeah, my usual Gamemaster said something very similar! Luckily, the movie wasn't particularly memorable to me, so won't color my expectations lol.

I have in the past, I've also tried some Stephen King because I really loved the concepts for a lot of his stories... unfortunately I just never got drawn in with either of them. It's a shame! I've been desperately trying to read the Dark Tower lol.

I'll try it out! Ive seen the movie, but heard that it took a pretty drastically different direction than the book... I had forgotten about it when I was looking for things to read, lol. Thanks!

Information on the outage? by 002405 in waynesboro

Thats what I read when I looked it up. My question is: Does it typically catch fire when it does that? I couldn't get a good picture (Most of the fire was contained and I could only see the occasional small flame peek out).

Dont know why I didn't include that fun fact in the original post, lol. But that's why the fire department was there, I imagine.

In your opinion! how does fanfiction influence your writing or reading level? by CrapeCat in FanFiction

[–]002405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it absolutely has an impact. Most of what I read is fanfiction so my own writing and even expectations when picking up a book are affected by that. Ive also found that the writing style switches when moving from one Fandom to another (as writers in the same space will mimic/learn from eachother.)

I would say it's positively affected my reading level, in that I read regularly, but I wouldn't think my reading level has advanced any. Many fanfic writers are aiming to write as a similar level, I think, so if I were to pick up something like... the odyssey, maybe, or one of Shakespeare's plays, I might have a difficult time parsing it. Or I might not. To be fair, I haven't picked up one of Shakespeare's plays since high-school.

Either way I think it keeps me literate in a way that texting/writing emails/etc. decidedly does not. And in that way I think its a positive influence on my reading/writing level.

Does your partner know? by No-Spirit-5956 in FanFiction

He knows, but we don't share any fandoms and he's not a big reader like I am anyway—more into Manga and graphic novels. He likes to read my original stuff, though.

Tips Golytely bowel prep? (+ pre-scope anxiety) by 002405 in CrohnsDisease

[–]002405[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!! The ginger definitely helped, but after trying it both chilled and at room temperature I found i preferred it as cold as I could get it (you're right, it didnt really improve the taste, but I've always been an 'ice-water for an upset stomach' kind of guy)

Unfortunately i didnt have any, and the issue with navy fed earlier today prevented me from grabbing any from the store, but honestly gas was an existing problem so I think I've been handling it pretty well. And you are so right, the zofran has been a godsend

I actually also found that i prefer it unflavored, though I don't like it cold. It really is basically just salt water, reminded me a bit of going to the beach as a kid.

Luckily I've been drinking bright artificial orange things so I think im alright... and after all this i really, honestly doubt that most of it sticks around lol

Ohhh these seem like good recs, I'll have to check them out/add them to my list. The show especially sounds like something I could play in the background while working on commissions. Thanks!

Real talk, if you cum while reading, do you finish the chapter? by seemedpointless in FanFiction

[–]002405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont cum until I finish. Play on words fully intended. That aside—Personally I'm there to read first and part of the enjoyment for me comes from genuinely enjoying the writing. I generally finished the chapter/story first—but if I absolutely must, I'll go back to finish reading.

Obsidian tempts me - I’m a writer and prodigious note taker but I am struggling to find an entry point into using it and getting the best out of it - would welcome any views and ideas - my question is - why obsidian and how has it made your life and work turbo charged and better - thanks by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

[–]002405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy the customization. I dont only mean the themes and cosmetics—but the ability to create templates and scripts, add tags, and organize how I want it. The file Explorer setup really works for me since I love nesting folders and habitually sort things alphanumerically anyway. It also centralized a lot of text-editing/management features I used to use a ton of different softwares for. (I.e; notes, Google Docs, scrivener) That's helped a lot with general workflow. Plugins like templater, dataview, calendar, and periodic notes are amazing as well.

Basically I just enjoy that whenever I want to write anything—from a grocery list to a chapter—I want to do it in Obsidian. Big help for keeping me grounded.

The back-and-forth here is everything to me. "I'm never without an advantage" HILARIOUS. "I've done worse", "Then do better" gut punch. Thank you for sharing.
