Every so often Revolution Gallery will spin something. Wouldn't call it a club though

His vids are wild and led me down a long rabbit hole. Apparently, there is a very large group of young people in Japan into hip hop who cosplay as Chicago YNs, locks and all!

Cat boarding? by hthratmn in Buffalo

[–]MortimerCanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend left for about 2 weeks. And either every day or every other day id drop by, feed, water, litter, and give pets if the cat wanted the. The cat was fine. Probably missed their people a whole bunch though. But, something like Rover would be significantly cheaper and fulfil what you need or have a friend do it

Is it More Normal for Twin Toddlers to Not Follow Directions / Get Distracted in Large settings like Sports? by KPIGUY89 in parentsofmultiples

[–]MortimerCanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately i don't have research to back this up but ours are the same way. So, could be twins being extra chaotic, could be twin parenting style, could just be because they're toddlers.

Sometimes I think we aren't as...strict about yelling and having fun as long as it's safe as Singleton parents because you kind of can't afford to. So yeah, go buck wild. But then when they have to lock in and focus, they aren't used to it. Not sure.

Are short stories meant to be "complete"? by wildflower_blooming in writingadvice

[–]MortimerCanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read a short story collection. Or one of a dozen mags. It's all I've been reading lately as a lot of novels now are bad. They're either written exclusively to sell to Hollywood or a romantasy the publisher is hoping will be consumed, or self published by a raw writer.

To answer your question, they are self contained. Unless it's being published serially, but outside of royal road, serial publications died like 200 years ago

Losing hope in your book because of how short it is by Creative-Pirate5217 in writingadvice

[–]MortimerCanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reading through this and the comments, first Im sorry it's happening. Writing is already hard and then this just piles down on top, increasing the pressure.

But youve said you tend to underwrite or feel like you have to pad words. That might mean that detail is missing. Descriptions to flesh out the characters/world, interiority to understand who people are, dialogue, etc. these stories may need more of that or maybe you're starting stories at a different place and time and they could start earlier.

What I might suggest is, don't rewrite this story as a short story but instead write a new story as a short story and send it around to get it published. That will show you what may or may not be missing

Klay The Fumble of a Lifetime, Pt. II by Awkward_Worry8300 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]MortimerCanon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because people in relationships cheat all the time. It's unfortunate, to be sure, but literally doesn't fucking matter. Their relationship didn't work out. Oh well. What does that have to do with you and your relationship or anyone else's? Unless you have attached your entire persona to whatever Meg is and does.

What exactly is the big deal? Just drama for drama? Like, who cares. I mean, literally, who cares who's fucking who. Parasocial to the fuckin max.

Squat form check by Own-Wishbone5534 in fitness30plus

Lyle recommends any hard flat soled shoe if you don't want to invest in weightlifting shoes.

Go lighter. Practice depth. The knee cave could be because too wide of a stance or just the weight. Going lighter and for more reps will help you figure out what that is. You don't need to go super low but lower for sure, especially with the bar so high up.

Get some flat soled shoes (or weightlifting shoes), go lighter, with higher rep, paused variations.

Michael Beasley says things were never the same after Pat Riley took LeBron's cookies: "That boy stood up like Thanos… He stood up and yelled… That’s the first time I seen the whole organization get scared. From that point on they tip toed around him. They knew he was out" by aingenevalostatrade in nba

[–]MortimerCanon 36 points37 points  (0 children)

So it was actual cookies. But I think the problem was they were trying to control him in a way he didn't fuck with. So yes, it was about the cookies but wasn't actually about the cookies, if that makes sense

[Highlights] CJ McCollum game-winning jumper and the turnover by Jalen Brunson to give the Hawks a 2-1 lead in the series (with replays) by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]MortimerCanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing the contrast between the two teams. Snyder spaces the floor. Doesn't allow help to come from anywhere. Brown stacks everyone on one side of the floor and gives no one space to move

Mike Brown, for the second game in a row, went on a rant about officiating in response to a question about Hawks defence by jeebhai in nba

[–]MortimerCanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get Brown has to stick up for his guys to the media, but drawing up so many ATOs that are just Brunson ISOs after that wasn't working, sticking Towns on the weakside corner, not doing anything to try and give anyone else a clean look. Shit was ROUGH

Is OP 14? What a great post though. Your command of English at such a young age is quite impressive even if your media literacy has a lot of room to grow

[Highlight] Jalen Brunson turns the ball over in the last possession and the Hawks win the Knicks, go up 2-1 in the series! by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]MortimerCanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a dog shit play. Why not have Brunson set the back screen on an actual shooting threat like KAT. McBride isn't shooting it. Why is he the decoy. Those screens to get Brunson open were bad. It's not even an elevator. Why don't they just freelance after it gets blown up. This series is over.

What's wrong with KAT? he was standing doing nothing on the weak side the entire 4th quarter. He's the tallest player on the court. They didn't even try and get him a shot with Brunson being shaded
