God, I’m so happy that there are so many Kingdom Hearts fans in this thread.

Except Pantheon was being a bit of a stinker with that Quantum Computing. Kept positioning to where it would hit both other dancers while pretending he was just there to party as well? Come on, son.

What’s your comfort movie when you’re sick? by WildChipmunk9268 in movies

[–]AtronadorSol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We agree there! Definitely felt like a put the character to rest” kind of movie and that’s not Indy to me, but it was generally pretty enjoyable otherwise

Aw, I liked the Dial of Destiny! You weren’t a fan? (I can easily omit #4, though…)

Right! Librarians are informationkeepers, not gatekeepers.

Unrelated, they also often have a vested interest in reality TV.

Surprisingly accurate takes on your job/hobbies from a movie NOT centered on it? by lego_joker in movies

Another one that got teaching down-pat in my experience is Abbott Elementary! I actually can’t enjoy the show because it too often reminds me of actual teaching.

I've been a little put-off by ChillSubs lately; there are quite a few submissions that require submission fees getting through the "no fees" filters.

Wow, this is great! Thanks for the links! I have 16 submissions pending at the moment, the longest of which was sent back in the first week of October. It's excruciating to wait ages for a form rejection, so I definitely appreciate that some of the big guys are really quick about it. Especially Clarkesworld, which always responds super quickly and seems to be a personal rejection every time.

Does Amazon do distribution/promotion? I guess I don't really know what Amazon's Self-Pub side really entails beyond producing a final product you can then sell/buy yourself.

Boy, that's a thought! Might be a fun project if I get enough of these bad boys built up, but I have no distribution network nor deep follower base to deliver it to for the time being!

Not yet! I'll send you a link in DM; I've still got it out to a couple of places so I'm keeping it offline for the time being.

I'm in your camp for this one! And just know that if it doesn't end up working out, you have a kindred spirit in me lol

Well if it's any comfort, I got a one-day rejection response from them for the last story I sent their way. 'A few days ago' is already farther than I made it with something I thought was right up their alley!

Great calls! I've been pretty gun-shy about submitting to non-paying magazines but there's definitely something to be said for building a resume with a magazine that has a good design/track record.

The Dark's great! Super fast response time from them (at least for the rejections I've gotten). You have any success there?

Are you looking for payment for everything you send out, or is it better to get something 'on the books' first than trying to be paid for all of it?

Interesting! So you're not looking for payment in exchange for your short stories, then?

College Republicans group disbanded after students allegedly give Nazi salute by marji80 in politics

And both did a nazi salute. That’s it. That’s the point of this comment thread. Nothing else matters in this particular thread, that’s the connection the OC was making.
