it's not FOR us

edited comic panel. Batman is breaking a lump-with-handle cow tool over his knee and saying "this is the tool of the cow. we do not understand it. we will not use it."

I really like having separate individual files all together in one common binder, and being able to organize the files in sub-folders, all within the project. I also like the snap-shot feature that keeps previous versions.

I could do without the "global replace is not un-doable" bit.

So many things pushed off of so many tabletops.

I thought I recognized that weird tent roof!

Abysmal ice, that always was. And yet still a ridiculous amount of fun, every time.

We also do Learn-to-curl classes now and then, also on Sunday nights. They're a great way to get a whole bunch of time with an instructor (although sometimes the ice is a bit of a problem, because the league games use the good sheets. BUT STILL)

Playing is the only practice I get, and the best thing about curling is that no one is actually too bad to win a game now and then.

Oh yah you betcha I do. Every sunday night I get out there and confidently miss, like, 80% of my shots.

I'mma announce the shit out of it when they get the details settled.

I am extremely happy with the club's position and action. The board really stepped up, and the membership leaned in.

Additionally, you know we've got league games going weekly, and in spring there's talk of a beginner's league with some neat features. The ice calls, the ice awaits...

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

I'm partial to New Vegas, myself. Just always feels like the best iteration of all the underlying concepts (though 2 is great at that, too, but I'm a little cool on the style)

Morning dog walks for me are always an exercise in "are the neighborhood coyotes around?"

Lately we've had *two* owls hootin' it up nearby.

Scam alert: there's an IngramSpark impersonator at ingramsparkbookpublishers dot com. Part of a wave of publishing/ghostwriting scams from Pakistan that hijack authors looking to self-publish--they often "borrow" well-known publisher names but this one also "borrows" the real IngramSpark's logo

Screenshot of IngramSpark impersonator's contact form, with chat window where scammer sales rep "Travis Clark" claims that "We are Ingram Spark's hands-on services department. You will be able to find our information here: https://www.ingramsparkbookpublishers.com/

Well this is extremely on-brand.

Oh yeah, that'd be a solid one, too. Something to tie that up, one way or another.

And, like, I try not to be the guy who's always like "this is how I would've made this"; artists make their own art and I support them in it even when it doesn't hit for me.

But still, I just can't help but imagine, sometimes.

The only thing I will say, that I think would've really changed my whole reaction to the series, is this:

Imagine if Evelyn had gotten *one* dose into Alex. Everything else (more or less) the same, but just that one difference.

i think we should just do horoscopes based on what the number one movie at the box office was the day we were born, it seems more scientifically rigorous
