  • Two thing:

    1, mistletoe? Was unaware of that lore.

    B, when I worked nightshift security, I wrote an urban fantasy novel (that has since been lost :( ), in the form of security log entries about a guard working at a warehouse in a world with ooky spookies everywhere. Tons of funny shit, but my favorites were the feral werewolf pups that would occasionally get inside, and had to be scared off with the vacuum cleaner.

    Also, the vampires who were sitting shiva for themselves.

    The ghosts who were haunting the warehouse, but only on weekends and holidays, as a vacation.

    I need to rewrite it. It was honestly some of my best writing



  • No, no, no, When life gives you lemons, don’t ~~ make lemonade~~ get whores.

    When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!









  • Fucking love seagulls. Grew up at the beach, gulls everywhere. They used to dig in our trash cans and we had to put heavy weights on the lids. Still fucking love em. They’re awesome, amazing trash birds who give zero fucks. I have seen gulls fully steal food from people’s mouths. I’ve seen them sit on windshields and refuse to move so you can drive, including just allowing the wipers to fwap into them repeatedly.

    Seagulls aren’t cunts. Seagulls serve cunt, and I love them for it.


  • It’s been pretty helpful in writing fantasy, but most of what it spits out is sort of… Surface level kids stuff, to be honest. But it has helped come up with a few interesting twists when I’m stuck. It’s not something they could write a story for you, but it has helped when I need, like, “I have scene A, in which X happens, and even C, in which y happens, help me bridge them by writing scene B.” It’ll give me some sort of like bedtime story level writing, and then I go in and completely redo it, but it gets me unstuck. The paid ones may be better, but I’m not spending money on them, I just use the free ones.
