Give the right things a chance to catch you.

For years, sci-fi has asked, what if aliens were wetter than us. Project Hail Mary posits a new, daring question. What if we are the wet aliens

the thing is that the original jessica jones show was a beautiful nexus of the most awful women you could fathom to meet. led by our intrepid misanthropic alcoholic ptsd-riddled heroine who violently pushes people away so she can be alone with her own misery, also featuring her cptsd poster child adopted sister who struggles with substance abuse, relentless ambition, and a mountain-sized ego that has her convinced she has a pure and correct grasp of right and wrong above all others, also featuring an unrepentantly unpleasant and unlikeable high-powered lesbian lawyer with a terminal illness who cheats on her wife with a secretary and later instigates the murder of the other lover she took after getting swindled. who else has done wretched women quite like this, in leading roles, without letting you squirm away from either their best or their ugliest aspects

Rogue: What’s up, Paladin? Paladin, after another day of being the only rational party member: My blood pressure.

Get a little wet when I find a fan translation that has a whole document of translator notes to accompany it explaining all their choices. Like yes yes add the context that may be lost in the jump to English. Yes yes tell me why you used specific words. Yes tell me why you choose to give a character a specific speaking quirk to give off the same vibes as something in the original language. Hahahah yes tell me tell me

it must be so freeing to be as stupid as a ceo. not a single thought echoing through that hollowed out skull. you get paid more money in 20 minutes than a handful of small countries make in a year combined to say the biggest number you can think of and if your company doesn’t hit that number you get to fire all of them

if you work in a creative field...or if you do creative hobbies like writing or drawing...you need to make friends with people who don't do those things. you need to befriend normie Steve who has never written a story in his life. and this is because when you are in a creative job or hobby and spend all your time doing that thing, surrounded by very capable people, who you inevitably compare your own progress and skills to, you forget what the baseline human skill at that thing is. and it's usually zero. normie Steve has not written a story since the 3rd grade when his teacher made him do it. he's very good at other things that are not storytelling - but if you tell normie Steve that you wrote a full 300-page book from start to finish, he will think you're some kind of savant. he does not know ANYONE else who has done this. you need this perspective. because when you're constantly on Let's Write Stories dot Com then everyone on Let's Write Stories dot Com will inevitably be like "oh of course everyone on earth has written a book or several at this point!" and you canNOT let yourself think that. that is not even close to the average human experience. you are in a bubble. do not put yourself down. do not give up.

''what if you regret it'' then you will expirience regret - a normal and unavoidable part of the human expirience.

the more you twist yourself into a pretzel to avoid regret the harder it will hit when it eventually catches up to you.

ur clothes size doesnt say anything. like it doesnt say anything abt u as a person but it also especially doesnt say anything about what size your clothes are
