#WritersCoffeeClub Do you avoid idioms, colloquialisms, or embrace them?
I use them - sometimes without thinking about it, because that's just how people talk, but occasionally I can make an idiom refer to some part of the story, maybe as foreshadowing or something. It's also fun to use idioms incorrectly sometimes.

#ScribesAndMakers How do you feel about short fiction? Do you read short stories as often as novels?

I never understood that argument. There are so many artists, writers and musicians out there that I never felt the need to consume content by bad people. You like RHCP? There's other funk bands that aren't rapists. You like Picasso? A lot of women did cubism just as good. It's easy to find work by better people if you look at all.

In the event that a spider shall be seen inside the house, the person designated "Daddy" shall remove the spider from the house, WITHOUT CAUSING HARM TO THE SPIDER. Daddy shall then wash his hands, because he touched a spider.

The antidote to materialism isn't minimalism; it's maintenance. Keep things. Fix them. Mend them. Grow old with possessions you know well because you've cared for them.

Thing about donating Bibles to a homeless shelter is - we already have them. Shelters get Bibles all the time. Once in a while, somebody picks one up. If you want to donate something that will help, check the shelter website. They might have a list of stuff they need. Socks and hygiene items are always useful.
If you *really* want to help the homeless, destroy capitalism.

There are a lot of nice people going bankrupt or dying because of US healthcare system right now. Thompson made a fortune on their suffering. He did not channel his wealth into helping others. He enjoyed being part of their exploitation.

Since I was a kid, I've known that people have the capacity to treat each other better. I accept that I have a condition called 'depression', and I take meds because they help me function.
I know that my 'depression' is caused by my awareness that it doesn't have to be this way, but I don't have the power to change it. The problem isn't reality. It's what people do to each other.

Harris is courting the Left. This after decades of Dems moving Right to appeal to the middle.
It won't be easy to shift US Left, but it be done. First, elect Harris/Walz. Then continue to be involved, pushing for the rights of marginalized peoples, social equity and environmental protections. Pols do what will get them re-elected. We have to tell them what we want.
