I have decided to seek help from a professional. I have signed up for individual psychotherapy and I will expect their call in the next couple of days for a brief screening.

I've been thinking about this for a very long time and I've been apprehensive because of how expensive it is, but anything is better than nothing. Since I've been saving a lot of income, I'm going to spend some of it for useful purposes and therapy is going to be one of them.

In the past, I’ve advocated learning from cinema, trying to use and translate the same techniques into prose. I use terms like “blocking” and “off-screen” to refer to things in prose.

Today, however, I’d like to discuss one of the major differences between visual media and prose. It also happens to be one of prose fiction's greatest weaknesses: scenes and stories with a large number of characters.

Hey all. Guess I'm still alive. Haven't been feeling much inclination to doing much on the site, but I'm still reading almost nothing but pony fanfics (re-reading, mostly).

Here's hoping any of those actually bear fruit anytime soon.

I wrote Gaben & Filthy Frank vs. The Conversion Bureau, those are the last ones I want to write. I'm going to go back to writing pure bullshit dank stories that are dank, I just had to write a TBC parody that has never been done before. I kinda like writing stories that no one has done before and I had to check that off my list.

So I found a thread talking about FIMfiction, and they happen to have a list of stories they recommend as a place to start,

I can personally say The Best Night Ever, Hard Reset, Mendacity, and Arrow 18 are all great fics, so the list is promising to me. Consider checking a story you haven't read, especially if it's in a genre you favor.

It was pretty good. If I puke I'll know for sure it's from the sandwich and not because I'm pregnant. I'm gonna get some more sun. It's freezing in here.

A friend has brought my attention to a very interesting project: Sombra-, Discord-, and Nightmare Rarity-themed zip-up hoodies. I find myself tickled by the idea of a hooded sweatshirt with an ermine cape and intend to support it. Here's the preorder form

What? I don't know, it's just what came to mind.

Okay, so when I've shared some, and yes only SOME, of my ideas on how to fix certain issues in society, I often get label as something or whatever.

So, once I expressed some ideas and I was labelled a Nazi, a white supremacist or nationalist, x-phobe and a racist.

So, once I expressed some ideas and I was labelled a non-white, South American, subhuman and a communist.
