I've had this vision of how much I'd written of part 3 but I knew I lacked the major choreography to close it. Leaving that alone, I worked on rewrites of secs 1 & 2 making great progress. Inspired with what I need, I finally revisited sec 3 only to find I hadn't written nearly as much as I'd remembered and what was there is garbage. Absolute garbage. Between that and reality, life has been sucked out of me. Inspiration still burns though. Must get back to it... #writing #writingcommunity

After listening to my stories with text to speech, I have to look up desert or dessert each time I use them... 😟

The lyrics are almost physically painful, triggering, and mesmerizing. The guitar work is brilliant, like little I've heard. My top 1 or 2 songs ever depending on the day. It brings me to tears but I cannot stop listening.

Red wine and dwelling on the past probably isn't a great idea but the wine is delicious and the music ain't bad

Unfortunately, my book of morphemes is 20 years gone

There are no words

Methinks #chicom8 has some experience with internet denizens, gamers and Scifi fans 😂

"Behavior that will be considered harassment includes:

@bloodravenlib My brain would have an easier time processing "We reserve the right to kick anyone out for any reason whatsoever"

That I can very easily comprehend and subsequently agree with. 🙂

@singlemaltgirl not, not used to :)

@singlemaltgirl Yes. Honestly, I didn't take into account that it would be filled with fans acting as fans sometimes do. Crowding people and the like. I've never been to any convention and certainly not something like this. I perhaps missed that they have additional concerns than I'm used to.

@LadyZurk Ahh, that does make sense. I've never been to anything like this so frankly I have no idea what happens.

@bloodravenlib Perhaps they are trying to avoid people having to specifically call out things that offend them and leave room for exactly that.

I realize I'm nitpicking too. Perhaps my specificity obsession is taking hold ;)

In all honesty I'm a borderline recluse anyways so I'll likely not talk to people out of habit. I'm also known for being good at reading people but I can't read minds.

That doesn't change that the impetus to know if someone else is silently offended lay with the speaker. That seems an impossible task. Am I expected to know the details of every religion and culture so as not to silently offend?

Well, I signed up for #chicom8 and am planning on attending all days.

A line in the code of conduct struck me as odd:

"If someone tells you no or asks you to leave them alone, you are expected to cease your interaction"

Of course, makes perfect sense. Followed by:

Because people may feel uncomfortable saying no or asking you to leave them alone, the absence of no is not sufficient to assume consent

?? How will I know? I should talk to no one, in case?

@Gypsysoul68 Our mistake. Here we thought they were trying to secede. Just a moment, I need to get my dictionary 😄

@Gypsysoul68 speling is herd
