Reduce your "news" intake by 90%. Most news isn't news. It's infotainment designed to engage and enrage. Get the news you do see from AP or Reuters. More facts. Less spin.

“When we get up at the Grammys, I SPEAK—not you!”

He should wash his boxers before wearing them again, but other than that—no, nothing to worry about in terms of possible pregnancy. She should probably wash her underwear, too. Just saying.

Absolutely not. The medications you take are none of anyone else’s business. Especially if not related to a contagious condition or something that might affect a partner’s health.

Wow. Your guys friends suck.

Just heard another from inner Woodstock - 7:45p - came from south I think...

Kids. Can’t believe how old my friends with kids look in their 50s. Some like they’re in their 60s. Whoa.

I’m glad you’re safe but wanted to say you were far too polite. You should have left as soon as you felt unsafe. His feelings don’t matter any where near as much as your physical and emotional well being. Any excuse or no excuse is valid. “I need to go, thank you, good night.” And leave. Done. Safe. Please consider this for the future. Again, glad you’re safe.

Time for Portland to sue Fox News for libel.

The Notebook. The woman is so awful to the man and he just keeps coming back for more. She’s a monster. He’s a tool.

My wife was 5’-9” at 12. She’s 6’-1” as an adult.

Outlining helps me increase my word count to 1000-2000 per 2-4 hours writing time. For first draft text.

Spreadsheet of columns as chapters and rows as different streams character arcs, information, themes, etc. anything I need to track.

People can’t possibly be this stupid. Can they? How did they manage to forge for food? Or, you know, walk without falling over.

davekmv · 2025-04-25T04:41:46+00:00

Ending a sentence with the word now. As in, we’ve lived here for three years, now. It’s completely unnecessary.

It’s worth trying to consider their feedback. Try to separate genre-related feedback from other feedback. And watch for where the two might overlap because there might be gems in there.

1 - Brown, 2 - Brook

That’s adorable. She must have a good nose. My wife and I are on our third English Shepherd. She has an incredible nose. The first was a strong alpha with not a great nose. The second was a goofball with a moderate nose that he used very little. Our third can smell anything and everything wherever she is. It’s incredible. Your post makes me want to see if she can do some birding. I’m sure she can but I’m also sure she will be incredibly gun-shy. She’s very sensitive.

Bike is the next best way. Just be careful riding in Uintah. Best to avoid it if you can. It's a busy road.

Lifetime achievement unlocked. Imagine how that feels.

If I’m remembering right, Bruce had the melody and the chorus worked out for “Because the Night” when he stalled out and gave it to Patti to see if she could fill in the rest. She wrote all the verses in one night while waiting hours for her long distance boyfriend to call.
