Now onto my playlist that I'm slowing putting together for my current , which takes place in . Found this fantastic song, "Into the Dark" by Icelandic duo Between Mountains. Enjoy! youtu.be/Tp4AHG8OkRg

And now I guess I'm blasting "Sweet Child of Mine" through my headphones.

Found out more specifically, the brother of Duff McKagan. So, not drummer. Bassist.

Then she texted to tell me that they're talking about how Joan Jett got them their start. I'm assuming by "them" she means Guns & Roses and not my uncle's very much not famous band.

Uhhhhh my mom just texted me to tell me the brother of the drummer for Guns & Roses is at this very moment in her house for my uncle's birthday party because he and my uncle were in a band together in the 70s. I...what?!

The Dark Reader is fine, but I had trouble with not being able to tell if I'd favorited or boosted something, which can often be how I figure out where I am in the notifications I'm replying to.

So I developed an inversion theme that leaves them intact and makes the dark grayblue of CoSo into a soft beige. You just have to have a CSS extension installed. Details here: sethharrington.me/counter-soci

I've been seeing a lot of newcomers expressing overwhelm about the firehose. If you want, you can hide it. Go into settings & turn on "ostrich mode," & there you go! Also, if you just want it to pause while you finish reading a post, scroll down away from the top, & it will stop constantly refreshing. Also, also, hashtags & filters are your friends! You can pin hashtags as their own feed column if you're using CoSo on your desktop. It's a lot like TweetDeck that way.

It's nice here.

It's going to take some of you a minute to realize that. You had a way of being over there that was straight-up bad for your health.

Check it at the door. This can be a place of new beginnings, if you let it.

Are you experiencing glitches or other issues using CounterSocial?

It isn't just you. We are currently experiencing a massive influx of new users. We genuinely can't explain it either. It's a mystery, wrapped in a riddle, ensconced inside of an enigma, cold-pressed through a malevolent billionaire's hubris.

Welp, at least I'll probably be a lot less angry and a lot more productive henceforth.

Fascinating! At first I was concerned about how this would affect the global sand shortage, but if you read to the end, you'll see they're working to address that concern. bbc.com/future/article/2022110

I'm only at 7,538 words total, so it's not like this is going to give me an edge or anything, lol. Should be at 26,667 words by now. But that's fine, because my actual goal is getting these first 3 chapters written and polished to send out as a proposal by the end of the month. And I have one chapter left to draft, so that, at least, should be doable.

If you accidentally end up using over 700 words to write a "quick summary" of a scene before actually writing said scene, you should totally be able to count those words as part of your word count. (And I did).
