Gods damn it. I just opened my computer to write down some ideas I had about a possible new story.

Now I'm horny and thinking about sex positions I haven't tried.

Arrrrgh. I don't even have a sex scene that needs writing. 😭

The 31 Best Lesbian And Queer Sex Positions To Try Tonight, According To Sex Therapists.

I didn't go looking for this. I swear. I'm definitely thinking about it though.

Reading an e-book where “circumstances” got broken over 2 lines, leaving me with a line that started with

cumstances

😳

🤔 I wonder if you could circumvent the Kindle Unlimited exclusivity limitation by simply creating a different "edition" of your book. Like, maybe different cover + alternate formatting / aesthetics.

Give it a different ISBN and voila. A legally distinct book that can be simultaneously sold on alternate sites.

“You guys know what the biggest difference between people who are afraid of gay people, and people who are afraid of spiders? It’s that the people who are afraid of spiders… they know that they are not spiders.”

- Ashwyn Singh

A couple young deer were hanging out, and snacking on the fruiting trees by our driveway. Combination of dogs barking and me trying to get a pic scared them off. Got a fun one off one running through.

I dunno wtf is going on with my body / hormones right now but I’m stinky as fuck as i don’t like it one bit.

So gross. Is like The Before Times (pre-HRT) got together with whatever makes you stinky when stressed stressed, and it just won’t stop.

Canceled an appointment to do hormone checkup because i can’t really communicate well right now. Am regretting that.

Related: discovered it’s nigh-impossible to make crushed estradiol tablets dissolve in liquid and have had to pause progesterone. 😭

?concerning? note from last oral surgery. When they knocked me out i was wearing shoes. When they woke me up I was not. Wifey said she heard what sounded like a tray of instruments being whacked and falling to floor.

While i was waiting in the car for wifey to do something afterwards, surgeon came out and made sure to tell me twice that I was a really good patient.

I was unconscious.

Why would he feel the need to come out and tell me this? Was I flailing in pain?

Nah you’re supposed to be an easily replaceable cog. They just say you should do your best because it makes them more profit and they don’t have to pay you more for doing your best and don’t care about burning you out.

Took some oxycodone. It let me sleep but gave me some really fucked up and disturbing dreams.

Do not like.

Ultimate cuteness:

was laying here half-asleep, and had a thought about a sex scene in book 2. Went back and reread it. Didn't need to change a thing. Was a good scene, and already captured what I was thinking.

Also, I really like how that book ends. Now, if only I would finish the effing edits to it and book 1 and release the things.

Just rejected a follow request. Person’s feed seemed fine. Cute stuff. Humanitarian stuff. Polite replies.

Only problem was they went out of their way to profess their love for God in their profile.

I realized, i don’t feel safe around overt Christian’s anymore. Most of them seem to be working to further the genocide of my people.

Modern Christianity seems to have very little to do with the teachings of Christ.

Silver lining? Great research for the character I’m writing who finds herself suddenly deaf, mute, and miserable.

🤦‍♀️

I have definitely been in more pain than i am at the moment (sadly during this same jaw BS) but i don’t think I’ve ever felt more miserable.

It doesn’t help that i look like i took a tire pump to my lips.

Will be doubling down on the ASL tomorrow because attempting to speak like this is fucking useless, and even if you don’t know ASL (wifey) maaaany of the signs can still get the gist across a lot better than my miming.

My 1hr appt to clean out the wound and wire my jaw shut ended up with me unconscious for ~4.5 hours, getting a bone graft, and turning my face into a cartoon of someone who got pummeled mercilessly. My bottom lip is huge. Will get moreso tomorrow.

There were bone fragments in there from the break too.

I just want to take drugs and fall asleep.

We need writing tools to track changes with git, but we need it to happen in a way that works for non-geeks who have no clue what git is or how to use it. They also need to provide a way for those non-geeks to easily produce something they can hand to others that documents the history of changes and defend their innocence.

Even better, make it trivial to sync to git forges that would give them an offsite backup AND a history of those charges that could be shared with trusted parties.

Someone lost a $2.4 million publishing deal because a fucking “AI detector” claimed their book was AI. It makes me really thankful that i track all my changes with git. I hope that tools like Scrivener and @veronica ‘s Novel writer start using git to autocommit changes and create a cryptographic paper trail that writers can use to defend themselves from these accusations
