In the last post, I talked about two very popular authors I didn’t like. One I didn’t care that I didn’t like him, and the other, I really wished I did. In this post, I’m going to talk about…well, I’m not exactly sure, buet it’s going to be related. Let’s go! Let’s talk TV shows.… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I talked about what a disappointment Knives Out was for me. I want to stress that it’s not a terrible movie–well, it is and isn’t a bad movie for me. But I’m not going to reiterate that in this post beacuse I want to move onto the two (white male cishet, I presume)… Continue Reading
I want to talk about popular media/because I don’t like much/any of it. I’ve learned to keep my opinions to myself because lots of people do not appreciate hearing that someone doesn’t like their favorite book/movie/TV show/anything else. When I used to use Facebook, I would post my opinions on my wall. Because it’s my… Continue Reading
At the end of the last post, I was musing about being on the inside or the outside and why people don’t like outsiders. I got tired and abruptly ended the post so I wanted to expand on it in this one. For a lot of people (especially cishet white guys), there’s an over-identifitcation with… Continue Reading
In the last post about gatekeeping, I went on a wild tangent about my mother and how she did not accept any part of my being so I stopped telling her anything of importance. It relates to gatekeeping because when I was in my early thirties, I finally realized that I would never be what… Continue Reading
In the last post, I talked about how an ex dumped me because I was honest about my opinion of Pulp Fiction. After he dumped me, we remained friends. Well, let me be honest. I wanted to get back together with him–why, I do not know– Actually, I do. It’s because my mother hammered it… Continue Reading
When I was in my twenties, I started writing mysteries. I took a class from an author I really admired. We brought in our work and had it critiqued. She said that I could not have an ‘I’ protagonist and then have scenes without that protagonist. I asked why not. She said it just wasn’t… Continue Reading
I want to be free. I feel hemmed in by my own restrictions (when it comes to writing). I have been stuck in a rut, and while I’ve written good shit, I think completely changing it up is the way to go. I have never written a romance before. I’ve had romance/sex in things I’ve… Continue Reading
I can usually pass for fairly normal if I keep my comments fairly bland. I’m talking about in the gen pop. I know I’m a weirdo, but I am always finding new ways in which I’m the outlier. For example, there was a question on Ask A Manager today in which the letter writer (LW)… Continue Reading
I have talked before about how I reach the end of things and then decide that I need to move on. It’s not a good or a bad thing; it’s just the way I am. Meaning that I get bored with things if they don’t change. I had a Taiji class today (Zoom), and we… Continue Reading
