Y’all… you need to calm down about the 520 and 521 notices. It’s intermittent, it means things are being tweaked behind the scenes to make things run smoother in the long run. Chill. Step away and get a glass of water or a snack.
Oh yeah @kathrynresister, I like that feature so much. Used it like twice already.
Like the tips, @awesomejohn, I want to remind you of this, because everyone's process is different.
Facebook is being frustrating today. It decided I needed to sign in again, fine, I can do that but when I try to type in my two factor log in code from my phone, I get the message that I'm "Using this feature too fast and is not locked out."
WTF?

WRITING TIP No 35
You don't need to put all the "Uh" and "Well" and "Um" in dialogue.
Trust the reader to insert some of that based on the context you have supporting the dialogue.
It's not a court transcript. Trust your reader.
That's because they have the warms,@DonMcGahan
Kitties, love the warms
@swinemiester @bit
Isn't that cruel to your face, tho?
When I run across the "dangerous fruit" story in news, I think of the Monty Python sketch.

@mikefacey Me too! There're lots of us here.
Hello! My name is Stephanie and I write stories. Stories good enough people give me money for them, which if I think about it is mind-blowing. #introductions

Had to ask them to re-send the conf email, but finally made it.
Hope this works.
Hello, this site was recommended to me by a friend instead of staying on twitter.
