The Digital Circus finale was made with TheAmazingAthiest fans in mind as the target audience.

Yeah, that's just a single benefit the administration gets from it. We all know the real reason is that they want oil and land.

He has a PhD in organic chemistry.

I have to be real about this, this is a huge find!
A vintage teddy bear with clothes tailored to him, made with good fabric, the hoodie has a functional zipper and buttons, the pants have actual pockets and a hole for his tail. He has a tail!
You just don't find plush toys of this quality nowadays.

Day 4 of Vyvanse.
I went to Goodwill to buy some new work pants, left with a new friend!

His name is Pepper.

Day 3 of Vyvanse!
It's really fun how much the meds help me do, if I want to do something even a little bit I just do it now instead of just THINKING about it.

Case in point: I haven't done my makeup in like a year.

I honestly feel unstoppable. I was pretty capable before but being able to connect the "things I want to do" part of my brain to the "actually doing things" part is too good. My power level has gone over 9000.

This medicine is life changing for me so far! I'm on top of the things I've been meaning to do but have been procrastinating on. I took the time to make a checklist.

Today, I went to the DMV to file for a new ID cause my old one expired AND mailed out my Tax return.
AND finished my homework early!

I just started Vyvanse! I'm still waiting to see how it really effects me but so far my creativity is BOOMING, my head is so CLEAR. Is this what it's like to FUNCTION???

When I remember to use them :)

I love vector layers.

Absolutely devastated to have to deliver this news.

I have loved working at BuzzFeed so much but I have to stand up for what I believe in.

Please DO NOT send hate to anyone!

If anything changes regarding this, I will let you know.

I became obsessed with Cyberpunk 2077 recently and I accidentally started using slang from the game.

Top words I use now:

Pick a starter pokemon that isn't a "starter" pokemon.

Graduation come May/June. The last few classes are SO HARD.

An update: I might not have a new chapter up until May or June because everything is unnecessarily difficult right now between school and work.

I wanna quit my job so bad but then I won't have money... I just want time to write.

School. Work. School. Work. School. Work. Kill. Me.

3:6 But an idea isn't a finished product, it's raw material. Think of it like cooking. You don't refuse to buy vegetables because you don't want to eat them raw. You buy them, chop them up, heat them, and add seasonings.

Ideas are the same way. A "bad" idea is just one that you haven't cooked.

6:6 On its own, the idea of having a society without the concept of parenthood is flawed, but combined with other things, it works.

So I guess the point is: stop trying to have good ideas, and start trying to have ANY ideas. Quantity should come before quality. That's the essence of brainstorming.

5:6 However, you can add other elements of a society to make up for it. Make it so that instead of parents, children are raised by the community at large as independent actors. Provide infrastructure like a school system to guide them from the moment they're born.

4:6 Writing it down is the only way to flesh it out. On paper, you can ask questions like "what if I swap this detail for a new one?"

One example from my worldbuilding project: "A society without family units."

On paper, such a society doesn't work on its own.

3:6 But an idea isn't a finished product, it's raw material. Think of it like cooking. You don't refuse to buy vegetables because you don't want to eat them raw. You buy them, chop them up, heat them, and add seasonings.

Ideas are the same way. A "bad" idea is just one that you haven't cooked.

2:6 It sounds obvious, but most of us don't do this. We tend to filter ourselves before we ever write anything down.

The problem isn't that we have bad ideas, but that we treat "bad" as a permanent label. We hear the idea in out head, judge it, and then immediately bury it.

1:6 I wanted to elaborate on this. This is a quote from a conversation with a peer wherein they told me they didn't have any good ideas.

I'm gonna write a whole thread about it, bear with me.🧵

Even if they're bad ideas write them down and turn them into good ideas later.

First sketch of Shiloh, the main character of the story I'm working on!

This gives a rough idea of what I was imagining, obviously needs a little work but they're just cute as a button aren't they?

I went back and added a Prologue chapter to Libertine, focusing on Micah the Kobold as the protagonist!
And then I doodled him for the first time!

Iron Lung is fantastic! Go spend your money on it.

I can see how that is a thing that could happen as he goes through his "villain arc." A lot of people have that complaint with him, but to be honest I was only not a fan of so much bright orange text rather than what was going on inside of it. I thought it was interesting.
