Mondays and Wednesdays get a bad rep. It's actually Tuesday that is the worst weekday.

Writing down an idea you're not happy with is the hardest thing, but you just gotta do it, because then it builds up and improves and the floodgates open.

Ever hypnotize yourself with your own avatar? IT'S HAPPENING TO ME RIGHT NOW
Bio
Personal:
Female, 24. I live in the tundra. If I list my interests, I'll break the character limit.
Writing/RPing:
I prefer realistic settings, but I can be pliable. Not big on Fandom RPs unless it's one I'm really into. No anime either. I'm kinda picky in general. RPing is pretty much the only way I can write. I can't think up plots, so I wouldn't make a good GM I think. Maybe in the future. For me writing is like doodling; it's a creative release, but I'm not an artist. I'm not great at writing romance either, and I refuse to write sex scenes with any more detail than 'tastefully fade to black'.
Availability:
I work full time, but I should still have time for RPing. Illness doesn't stop me, and if I can't get a post up I will say so in the OOC. Thursdays are out.
Roleplays I'm currently in
Wink Murder
Wolf Manor
Old Guild
Silent Hill RPG
Hüeller Morgann

What's uuuuupp. Again. :P
Heeeey, Ginger! Nuthin' much. I was trying to reboot this but I'm lazy and everyone (especially myself) has been pretty busy. I actually just PMed Jig to see if he'd be the GM of this again so I don't have to worry about it. I was gonna take a little break from RPing during the spring/summer to do adult things. (I'd come back for this one and Wolf Manor though, I just don't plan on joining any more active RPs)

Feminists bring valid points to the table, and some MRAs bring valid points to the table (divorce/child custody and domestic violence against men not being taken seriously being big ones that people with feminist views like me sometimes sweep to the side, though I think gender roles are more to blame for those than feminism). We're getting into hot territory here, so this is my piece:
No matter how valid your points are, (and I'm speaking to absolutely everyone here, including a reminder to myself) getting angry and lashing out at the other side in revenge and making generalizations to justify your anger completely dilutes whatever message you're trying to get across. It makes you look like a crazy person, then no one will take you seriously, and then when they see someone else trying to make the same point, they'll remember you and then write the next person off as a crazy person too. It hurts the entire movement, whatever movement your advocating, to get angry.
For a good example, check out my behavior earlier in the thread. I still believe in what I said, but not how I tried to say it.
A rational discussion might actually convince someone, a rage filled tirade will not, no matter how justified it may seem. Yeah, there are always going to be radicals who are louder and get more attention than you, but they're just a loud minority, and only other radicals take them seriously. They can be safely ignored.
So that's my internet wisdom of the day. Be safe kids, and take a few deep breaths before you touch a keyboard. And don't take any wooden nickels.

I hate that no one in my office does their own damn dishes half the time. And when they do, they don't do them well, so if the next person needs a spoon they have to rewash it anyway.
I mean, I'm a slob at home but at work there's other people to consider. Clean up after yourselves, people.

Shit Wade, I hope that works out. #illprovidehugs
I've been slowing down on writing in general tbh. I haven't joined an RP in ages and I just can't find time anymore. *shrug* Life 'n stuff.
Dang, I hope you're ok Wade.

I honestly thought that Trump was flat out trolling the GOP when he first started running. Now I don't know who's worse, him or the people who support and agree with him
