Game ideas. For when I figure out how to make games.

I wrote about choosing to start my personal site over from scratch

[DivergentRays]

Thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying the serious links. And I hope you enjoy Recipes for Love and Murder.

[Lars-Christian]

Thank you, I really appreciate it Like your page and blog, too. Rabbit holes! That’s a great idea!

I just finished the rough draft of a whole novel! Here’s how I got it done while writing 500 words a day.

500 Words a Day

Personally, I don’t think it sounds silly for you to just “restart” all over again. I get it, sometimes a thing you made years ago is something you don’t feel like showing to other people, especially with how personal it is to you. It was made at a time where you weren’t at your best, and that’s enough of a justification. At the end of the day, you are entitled to your own work and you can choose what you want to do with it. I feel happy for you that you’re recovering and are better than ever

The school district I work in released its new policy on using generative AI in the classroom today. I have Opinions. They are strong.

[starbreaker]

Yeah, the entire “gen AI” industry needs to be yeeted into the cold ever-night of interstellar space. The only salient difference between Sam Altman and Sam Bankman-Fried is that Altman hasn’t been busted for fraud yet.

Yo this post goes so hard. What an incredible life you’ve had.

[Leilukin]

I’m glad to hear that you’re the happier and healthier, and that making your own website has helped to heal you. I also totally agree with @Sunny_Velvet_Luxe. There’s no shame in restarting and remaking something if you don’t identify with the previous version of yourself and your work any more.

[hmm]

Kinda proud of my three latest posts. Seem to have a lot to say these days. Starting an anonymous blog was a good idea.

It’s just that my sister and grandma had happened to open my book to a sex scene first. They humiliated me, first shaming me for reading it at all, then (when I objected that the book was about more than sex) mocking me, saying, “But you know which parts you skipped to.”

Your sister and grandma were not good people, and they serve as evidence for an opinion that I usually keep to myself: if men are indeed trash, some women help make them that way.

[hmm]

Thank you for the validation, Starbreaker.

I am trying to resist the impulse to sort people into good and bad. At the time of the incident my sister was also a child, too young to know better, and grandma was probably too old. They were reacting with confusion and fear to something that they had never been taught how to handle. I am still angry at them, but not without understanding.

[hmm]

Cool writeup. I have always wanted to try writing fiction but nanowrimo always intimidated me, seemed like a heavy time commitment. Need to try flash fiction or something.

That’s fair, and perhaps it might have been kinder of me and more accurate to say that they were not being good people that day.

Made a couple of posts about listening to music on our stereo.

Concrete Lunch – For less than $5 a month you can have space on a web server....

This morning was post 990 since I began on 10/6/2006.

Will I hit post #1000 this week?

Maybe…

" cold ever-night of interstellar space"

Well-written. Massive propz yo.

[starbreaker]

Thanks.

I’ve actually got a villain in my fiction who deals with his enemies that way. He just teleports them into the Kuiper Belt. That’s why nobody could find Judge Crater or Jimmy Hoffa in his timeline.

Thank you! I definitely recommend writing something short to start. And with a personal website you’ll have a great spot to archive your finished work if you feel like sharing it with other people.
