It’s been a while since I’ve posted here, not that anyone reads these anyway. My current story hasn’t been updated for a long time so I’ll try to return to writing it and ideally finish it this year.
So I hooked up with this girl at her place and we did coke. And it had absolutely no effect on me, much to my chagrin. I was really looking forward to it.
I'm writing this short blog post in an attempt to solidify my understanding of the Ukraine-vs-Russia conflict, because writing things down usually helps with your thought process. I'm also writing this in case anyone is confused about the situation and wants to know what's going on. I might get something wrong, and if that's the case, feel free to correct me.
I finally got a new chapter out, after over a year of hiatus.
Truth to tell, I have no idea when I'll finish this story. Could be a year. Could be five years. Or ten years. Who's to say? I can no longer make any promises. There's still a lot of ground to cover and I'm nowhere near finished, plus I'm busy with real life.

Me? I respect anyone who gets up, goes to work, and earns that paycheck. But I don't have any agency over how Hasbro manages their intellectual property.
hold on, there were people... writing for a show... that they had never seen?!

HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?

Because the pay is the same whether you try or not.

Then I must be one of those weirdos who values their product more than their paycheque.
