Hands you a great year...
God I hope so
@glbettwrites @anxious-m3ss
Say "hands you a" and let auto generate finish it
Hands you a bit of a good idea

It's a foolproof method.
I would know. I'm a fool.
How is writing a simple outline harder and more exhausting than writing a 60-page script????? Save me from my own brain

In this shot from βAsteroid City,β Wes Anderson's signature symmetry and meticulous framing create a poignant visual metaphor for the emotional distance between Augie, played by Jason Schwartzman, and Midge, played by Scarlett Johansson. Positioned in their separate windows, they are flanked by the vast desert landscape, an expanse of negative space that visually articulates the barrier between them. The emptiness between the two characters underscores their isolation as they long for connection while remaining emotionally walled off by past experiences. The casino billboard, a symbol of artificial hope in the middle of this barren environment, reinforces the unattainable, fleeting nature of the relationship. Through this distance and quiet tension, Anderson and cinematographer Robert Yeoman capture the melancholic essence of two people bound by proximity but divided by circumstance.
Burn out on writing is still being a bitch, pass it on
house in 2024
House installs 24/7 tracking apps on Wilson's phone. In return, Wilson books Ubers to take his phone and drive to various nefarious locations, sit there for half an hour, then come back home
Similarly, Wilson gets a smartwatch that monitors his heart rate. House gets updates sent to his phone and calls Wilson whenever his heart rate increases by more than 20 bpm to try and interrupt him jerking off
Kutner writes fanfic and replies to almost every comment he gets. His author's notes are full of things like "sorry this chapter is late, I accidentally gave myself a concussion trying to save a patient's life"
House posts on the Am I The Asshole subreddit but gets annoyed at everything thinking he's the asshole so he immediately deletes his account and pretends it never existed
Cuddy spends an hour of her day responding to the hospital's negative google reviews about "that rude doctor with the cane"
A young patient of Wilson's convinces him to be in a TikTok they're making, and he doesn't really know what that is but he agrees and ends up going semi-viral
Chase is secretly seething with jealousy over Wilson's accidental TikTok success, because Chase has been making thirst-trap videos in his scrubs for months with barely any views (it's because he's trying way too hard)
Thirteen gets really into Drag Race and the local drag scene and accidentally introduces House to gay slang, which he instantly adopts

the true cycle of life
me as a writer: Oh no I canβt write that, somebody else already has
me as a reader: hell yes give me all the fics about this one scenario. The more the merrier
I'm back home and wow, did not do nearly as much writing as I thought I would. HOWEVER, I think I decided on making this story learn more towards tragedy. Am I surprised? No.
just realized u guys don't even know the full extent of the hungarian "banned items in schools" list omg. they also banned several weapons, which is like. normal. but they NAMED the banned weapons one by one which immediately makes it hilarious.
from this month, you are forbidden from bringing the following things to school: any blade longer than 8cm. shuriken. butterfly knife. crossbow. regular bow. lead loaded stick. nunchaku. slingshot. and fuckign. harpoon gun.
WHO was bringing harpoon guns to school so much we needed to ban it?? why would anyone bring a crossbow to school. so many fascinating implications here. picturing a 3rd grader turned away at the school gates walking home dejectedly with a harpoon gun and several shuriken. why. they didn't even ban flails and sledgehammers, that's such an oversight.
an online friend group may include:
guy who is nocturnal.
guy who goes to bed at nine pm.
guy who is inexplicably literally always online.
guy who lives on the other side of the planet.








LAST NIGHT IN SOHO (2021) dir. Edgar Wright
Just finished the draft for my second TV pilot


To celebrate, I will hibernate for the rest of the year.
Happy STS! How do your personal experiences shape the themes in your writing, if at all?
That is a good question. They certainly do, and with some characters I notice it more than others. My themes tend to revolve around Death as in the tarot: transformation. Which I've had to done A LOT of in the last years. So, personal growth (or lack thereof), dealing with emotions, especially anger, have been a pretty recurring theme. I suppose what changes is how I handle the themes, not so much the themes themselves.
I hope that answers you, my brain isn't willing to brain much π thanks for the question!
