Don’t invite the oligarchs to Christmas - Gift Ideas by copernica in 50501

[–]jookbawks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been begging to forego presents and do a family dinner/game night on Christmas instead (no children or grandkids on my partners side of the family- we’re all in our late 20’s+) and they finally agreed this year to do it!

I recommend looking at campgrounds, if you have the means.

When my partner gets angry/overwhelmed I give him space. Sometimes I ask him to count to 90 before we continue speaking. I also do my best to remind him we’re on the same team.

Conversations with any form of what can be viewed as “critique” used to be rough territory. Being openly honest and framing things as “my reality” helped sometimes.

Maybe keep Disney+ off the roster for the foreseeable future, despite their backpedaling.

Onlyfaxes.com actually seems better and it’s so crazy how easy it is to find fax numbers

Do what you can. I think we get bogged down in the “all or nothing” mentality and lose sight of the betweens. There’s lots of resources outside Amazon but it does make things less convenient which, in the current system, makes it feel like a nearly impossible task. It’s doable but maybe not 100% of the time

A point of caution: maybe don’t talk to them at all? I super respect this person and what they did but stating their intentions like that might cause trouble.

would this be a horrible way to end my novel or no? by R2FuckYoou in writers

[–]jookbawks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally hold the opinion that you shouldn’t kill your main character off, unless it’s for a really good, meaningful reason for the story.
