Hello! I took a 5,000-word werewolf horror short story I wrote in 2012 and turned it into a nice little PDF ebook with some illustrations by my wife. It's $2 on Gumroad! Every purchase means I can pay for 1 minute of electrolysis.

Please buy my book to blast my beard! https://gumroad.com/l/librarian

love to have, migraine

everyone seems to be some mixture of miserable, horny, and broke. i get it. that's the human condition under late capitalism, but I'm really starting to question the value of voluntarily immersing myself in it from all sides, every day, all for the sake of "communities" that, with a few exceptions, have taken a lot more from my time and psyche than they've given back

I'm feeling increasingly detached from communities online. on here, on Twitter, and through the web sites I run. werewolf stuff, trans stuff, developer stuff. even the running community, although that has local, non-online aspects that make it less ephemeral.

I had a productive writing session at lunch today – ~400 words in 45 minutes.

Then I got stuck in traffic while driving home, and on a lark, tried dictating more of my story into Notes using Siri. 512 words in 10 minutes. Some incorrect word choices and glitches but DAMN. Mama might have a new way to get those words down.

Nice morning, familiar local trail loop, good podcasts and new shoes (that are too narrow and are destined for Craigslist) https://mastodon.xyz/media/NAvJeH1ZhmHblRb6YcE https://mastodon.xyz/media/Un3rleYCKR-5X6NiBgw https://mastodon.xyz/media/Tcm_-DqzyVabkuI3Szg

Me, quietly, to myself: "that's some good stuff right there"

A lot of people think C.S. Lewis only wrote Little Golden Book style Christian allegories about lions and sickly British kids, but he also wrote a science fiction trilogy in which a naked man literally beats the devil to death with his bare hands over multiple pages.
