This from In Writing, a collection of writers reflecting on practice, really resonated with me.

Has anyone figured out what’s so viscerally wrong with this woman yet

stuckinapril

She’s so one dimensionally evil you guys 😭😭 how is she real

mintedwitcher

read this and remember it. read this and remember that she is going to use the profits of her fucking ego-stroking reboot to decimate trans rights. read this and remember that every time you pay into her IP, you are emboldening her to hurt us more.

our lives matter more than your fucking nostalgia.

trans lives matter more than your fucking nostalgia.

People are so much more sad, and desparate, and lonely than you think. I have had three incidents in the last four months were a technician I was working with was being either dangerously unfocused (we work with high voltage), or just flat out angry with their coworkers, and every time when I just pulled them aside to say hey, this isn't you, you're nice, and you're competent, so something must be up - what can I do to help - they have responded by bursting into tears. One guy was struggling to get his wife moved into a care home, one guy just got served divorce papers, and the other hadn't slept a wink the night before because his daughter had the pukes.

I haven't spent my whole life responding to people being rude, or stupid, or dangerous with knee jerk compassion. It's a new habit. The first time I did that as the lead for my lab, it was because the guy genuinely was so good natured that I knew something had to be off. But the other two times were just me going, alright, lets see if it always goes this well, and so far, it has. I'm almost 30, and I just figured out that the #1 reason people are shitty are because they are going through shit.

I don't think you have, like, a moral obligation to respond to people being jerks with knee jerk compassion. But it has made my life so much easier the last four months that I would recommend trying. For your own sake. Please.

(I'll step off my soapbox now. Enjoy your Sunday.)

any tips for developing discipline? ive been going through life on a lackadaisical hedonist build but ive got a bunch of mysterious problems that i may or may not be at fault for

Discipline isn't actually about doing hard things. It's about looking for ways to make necessary things the easy default.

shouldtheydivorce

Should Cid nan Garlond and Nero tol Scaeva divorce?

Yes, absolutely

No, their love is forever

No, they're perfect for each other (derogatory)

They should divorce remarry and divorce again that's how divorced they should be

I don't know these characters but they look cute together

I don't know these characters but they should divorce

I have zero opinion on their relationship status

Voting ended onNov 30, 2024

Reason:

Nero has dedicated his existence to elaborately irritating Cid, with the apparent goal of reversing his character growth and rekindling a rivalry from when they were literal schoolchildren (they are both 34); Cid routinely allows Nero to reenter his life and remains invested in his wellbeing despite his awful personality; they will never be truly free of each other, to the detriment of themselves and everyone else. Their favorite thing to do is to embark on a high-stakes engineering project together in which they increasingly fail at acting aloof about the other guy being there. Most of their interactions have the exact energy of a married couple who should have divorced years ago but are in too deep. It's great.
