Here is a thread of things I’ve written:

It’s honestly a relief to get the suspense out of the way and just enjoy the story sans tension

I feel like it’s an ADHD thing to not care about spoiling the plot?

I’m distantly related to both George Clooney and less distantly to the guy who invented Uncle Ben’s rice.
