Ok. That's all for now.
I used to like Thanksgiving. I still kind of do. But the roots of the holiday are what they are.

Pare them out. Plant the good roots.

Gratitude and remembering the past to understand it and how it impacts us now. Learn what went wrong to avoid it and as we can, repair it.

Though it's more like "help people now instead of imaginary people in the future."

Then "Let them solve their problems and give them tools and expertise...."

Blah blah. Meta wankery

Yes. I know that lol. Even if I wanted to though I know I'd never finish it.

Maybe a thing tho lol that nobody will read due to my inability to sell myself.

I used to call it selling out and I think it's not that any more.

[emotional support lol]

My job is "technical writer", but I spend almost all my time editing. Not only my work, but others'.

It's a vital step.

More than just a little unglamorous.
