i was born at night not last night

I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.

Connor bedard wakes up in philadelphia wearing a 98 flyers jersey and he is given nut awear pizza for the first time and he takes a bite and cries. He hangs out in the super awesome injured reserve arcade that tyson foerster built when he was on the ir and when connors all better in November he gets to play on a line with owen tippett and porter martone and he scores goal after goal and he gets to the playoffs for the first time and then they make the Stanley cup where they terminate the Colorado avalanche and bedsy is smiling and grinning and his shoulders dont bother him anymore as he lifts the cup with his teammates and friends

as a flyer trevor zegras acquired three rookies in approximately 29 regular season nhl games, or a rate of 0.103 rpg (rookies per game). at this pace, if trevor signs a six-year extension, we can project that he will have roughly 54 rookies living in his house by next time another contract is due. in this video essay I will

i'm getting the sense some of you are not actually forklift certified.

Update: I took a certification class in shipboard Material Handling Equipment at my federal job. *now* I'm forklift certified, but only on ships and piers and only for this company, but also rated to forklift explosives and hazardous materials. Also I'm a woman now.
