I played Overlord 1 when it came out. Loads of fun. Like evil pikmen. The goblins are great with thier “For the masta” and “For me!” When they loot.

Maybe similar to the suspended bridge effect.

Fear of death being tied to preservation of the species so you want to pass on your genes.

No. I haven’t for two days… I should start again.

I don’t use tree supports much so I was hyper focused on the tree…

Oddly branches tree. Doesn’t look organic. Not a tree? Is it like one of those finger hand things? With tiny hands at the top?

Hands look like they’re holding up a- oh shit they’re tree supports!

PSA: stop doom scrolling right when you wake up.

Yeah I’m made about these unrepairable and phone home cars.

I got a 2010s car that’s dumb and it works.

I really want a SUV with adaptive cruise control. Preferably hybrid 4WD. I’m shit out of luck for privacy.

I just did the first joke in my wife yesterday.

Her: “Get out”

Well see how she treats the groan… We got a one more avacado.

They deserve it.

Why the hell wouldn’t you confirm the source of “AI” when traveling in a foreign country??

This is another level of “I don’t need to remember things because Google remembers”

This is "I don’t need to think because AI thinks for me"

I love this rofl

I was talking to my best friend who has a girlfriend that has a gun h9bby about Valentines day.

I told him to buy her a model Tommy gun for vday.

I told her in person he refused my advice.

Her response: “that’s fucked up” 😐

If you tried to video call your cat I suspect one of two things would happen.

Either it’s entirely ignored or the cat would knock the camera/tablet off of the table.

When I was in my late teens (16 or 17) my neighbors were hosting thier niece around my age for the summer. She was hot.

We had introductions initially and chatted once or twice.

I think on week two we were hanging out on thier enclosed front porch. Sitting on lawn chairs. She was wearing a jersey like fitted dress that went down to her thighs.

Not long into us chatting she asked me:

“How about you give me head?”

“Sure I don’t mind.”

“I’m not wearing panties.”

So I raised an eyebrow and dropped to my knees in front of her and lifted her knees with gentle hands. She consented and her dress slid up releaving a well maintained and bare pussy.

So I got to eating. She leaned back and closed her eyes enjoying it. After she was warmed up I pulled my out, hopped up and kissed her neck and ear. Put her hand on my bare cock. Her response: “Got a condom”

I did. And we did. That was a fun summer.

Two way pet cams are a thing. You may not be able to text, but you can still stalk and get a bit of long distance affection.

Warning: Do not try this with cats.

This actually happened to me last month. I had to touch code from a previous team/project I was on.

I got the call for a collaboration/consult. I forgot everything about it. Jumped in a meeting next day anyway. We pulled up the code. Everything was documented and I had a section with parameters for a “wish” feature that they actually wanted finally. I pointed it out and told them the needful to finish the feature.

Thank you past me. I’ll have to buy you a drink.

Then I had a nice 5pm Scotch.

Writers block:

You can take a step back and work on the outline.
How’s the flow of the scenes?
What about far reaching goals or beats you want to get to?
What about laying in foreshadowing for future events?

Got any fun ideas you want to throw in as a filler?
Ex: going to eat at a tavern, shopping for gear, training magic, a chat on character background to flesh things out (Fel or Mr. Evil). The list goes on. Hell. Make a list of ideas for filler. Write them out and put them no where. It’s good just to keep your fingers moving when you get motivated. You can throw them in where it fits later or even an after story.

You know, like, “Ugh, what am I even doing. Is anyone even going to enjoy this?”

YES! It’s off to a great start. As an overworked office person I relate to the MC. In the scope of a JP novel the MC is from a black company so that fits the standard rubric as well.

Title is WIP.

Title seems fine to me. I’m used to the far too literal JP novel titles so this is a nice change. We haven’t hit the “problems” yet to see where it fits.

I’m starting to get those nagging brainworms.

Thoughts/Advice from a amateur writer. I used to write stories for fun over a decade ago. I was even tempted to start writing and posting to Amazon before the boom really hit. I might’ve made it big before the market got saturated after COVID and even worse now after AI slop is everywhere. My focus was fantasy and supernatural writing.

I have a few thoughts on this.

Are you writing a Webnovel, LightNovel or a Novel/Book?

It looks like you’re writing a LN first instead of a WN. Writing a book/novel is quite different from writing a WN.

I define a Webnovel as a story written chapter by chapter and released as such. This can be seen as a sort of first draft of a novel in my eyes. A LightNovel is a polished webnovel released as a volume. Edited to it’s final form. Things can get added or removed at this point. Plot points can be fixed. Writing quality can be adjusted.
A Novel or Book is written as such from beginning to end and released all at once.

It seems to be you’re aiming to write a LightNovel/Novel from the beginning. This isn’t a bad thing in any way, but I’d recommend shifting your perspective to writing a web novel. This isn’t the final form of the story. You’re mainly getting your ideas down and fleshing out the parts that feel fit.

If/when you get writers block (we all do) I’d recommend using the corkboard to flesh out plot points and events you want to happen and arrange them in order. This can give you a “to do list” of things to write out. If you get stuck writing out a scene just work on a different one.

I’ll post my thoughts on the story when I have time at a computer again. I’d like to reread the story so it’s fresh in my mind.

Eat more fiber.

Also try taking some probiotic pills. Take a half dose. Fiber allows good bacteria to strive.

This will lead to good times on the throne.

I wanted a Magnifica for so long but I can’t justify it because I drink decaf and the wife drinks half caf. Don’t want to buy/maintain two of them…

Can you also share an epub? I got formatting issues on my reader with PDFs.

I started reading a bit. I like the status window.

Notes: Tastes mildly of citrus.

Edit: just finished it. Didn’t realize it wasnt a volume. I’ll post my thoughts soon. EPubs are still nice for sharing IMO.

Check out scrivener if you haven’t yet!

Good luck!
