Sounds like someone already has a backup character planned!

The Transformers suit unfolds to reveal...Busta! "You know Hoda, he'll be starring as Bustimus Rhymes in the new Transformerz movie this Fall!"

Say it with your whole chest.

In my head there's a superhero story that goes something like:

Hero: I thought Captain Planet wanted to save the environment?
Heart Ring Kid: Yes.
Hero: But he's killing a bunch of people!
Heart: He's killing about a dozen *specific* people.
Hero: So he's a villain!
Heart: Thor_Is_He_Though.gif

Okay, but "Making sure I have at least one novel on my trip to the Underworld because A) I haven't finished it yet and B) what if I get bored." is SUCH a mood. I can't figure out if some version of that is the start of a story or what I want on my tombstone.

Group of horror writers get together for a reunion in a cabin. They start co-writing a horror script about the skeleton crew of a space arc who discover a cursed snow globe that's locked them in a Christmas time loop. Perspective jumps between cabin and ship.

Then the writers start dying.

For me the split keyboard solved the shoulders and elbows strain, not the back. (The standing desk was the solution for the back and hips.)

But yes, it is wild how much relief is created when you move your hands from here...to *here*.

I do this and also the engagement hubris variation, where I do the timely, "ha ha I am so clever" post, also rewriting it five times, thinking this might just be my Rice Truck/Bigolas Dickolas moment...and then scroll past five posts making the same point, more concisely or saliently.
