How I'm rolling up to Thanksgiving

Whoops. How did this list of Patreon-exclusive story ideas drop here? I should probably pick it up before anyone gets excited about the ideas and subscribes. That would be terrible of me.

What is a trope you absolutely want to read and/or write more of?

I absolutely love when big, dumb, barbarian-style characters either have to or get to play fancy and dress up for an occasion. I’m doing a text DnD thing with friends for Thanksgiving. My barbarian is named Bigg and he has a top hat.

Internet friends, let us speak of happy things because I am at work and I am in A Mood that is not conducive to customer service. Send memes, questions, whatever.

Replace 'Monday' with 'Wednesday' and 'the day before a holiday' but the message remains!
Okay, it's Monday so time for another push for ratings!

Before the end of the year, can we get Zoo to 50, WBRG to 30, and October Music to 10? More for Boddicker would be killer too, but I like round numbers.

Driving in the winter can eat the fattest, juiciest, most succulent selection of honey-roasted, butter-basted, hickory-smoked, organically grown dicks that have ever existed.

I don’t know why I drew what is essentially a sentient cereal dispenser pain-shitting Corn Pops onto the face of a toothless degen in what can best be described as a fetishistic manner but I HATE that I did.

Always worth taking a moment to remind you if you’re pirating authors’ book you’re a shitty person. You can rail that our profession isn’t a profession all you want. You can paint yourself as an online revolutionary liberating ideas. It’s all bullshit.

You’re just a shitty person who hates writers.

*actual conversation at the liquor store*:

Me: I don’t like the direction we’re going.
Brother: Me either. Get some Cuervo?
Me: Are we drinking tequila today? Is that what we’re doing?
Brother: Yes?
Me: Shit.

This goes double for those bright blue xenon bastards too.
i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

We all know the trend of happy-sounding songs with darker lyrics (e.g. Hey Ya) but what about the reverse? What are some songs that sound dark or eerie or haunting but the lyrics are kind of banal? My choice is Still Life by Men at Work. SUPER dark sounding...just a basic heartbroken song.

I mean, it's true.

Today is going to be an EFFORT, I think.

Dropping another one.

A spiced sandwich with absolute power?

Autocratic sage wrap.
You get into a car accident but, as you step out of the car, you see a cute puppy trotting around.

Automatic rage sap.
Your child has a colorful article of clothing?

Problem beige gap.

Here is why I should be nobody's hero:
I am 39 years old with a Phd and yet, when faced with deli turkey that makes me say 'that doesn't smell great', I still make a sandwich and eat it with the argument 'whatever, I'll just get sick' and then have the AUDACITY to get upset when I get tummy rumbles.

Another actual new story up on my Patreon. Wizfestation is a constant WIP, but this story is one of those romantic horror pieces I mentioned. This one IS paid subscription only, so there's never been a better time to toss a coin to your witcher.

While driving, I randomly remembered that someone high on ketamine is said to be in a ‘k-hole’. I now want to incorporate a fake drug in ONE of my books that starts with ‘p’ so they can be in a ‘p-hole’ and I laughed way too hard at that because I don’t wanna work and also I’m basically 12.
