luring Pinky out

This from October just hit me. Jacky cares very much about Pinky and isn't sure what to do.

I love fans. Sploit says she misses Pinky. I think we all miss Pinky. I don’t think Pinky is ready to come back out yet. She tried making a new blog today and it was dismal, so she deleted it. I’m cheering her up.

I really do feel bad for Pinky. I keep trying to pull her back out and she's just not ready to come out and play yet.

👀

Ok then. Sudden bolt over to the dotcom to repost the scariest thing I've ever published. I think it's safe to say Pinky is still pissed off about the propaganda machine.

Do you know how hard it is NOT to delete all my stuff and vanish sometimes? BUT then I'd have to live with myselves.

Broke a tooth today on a seed in a popcorn ball. I usually get those all out.

WOAH. O_O I was going to get a link and this popped up as auto suggestions. Extremely interesting this happened after I just ran off and reposted that thing on my dotcom wordpress. I've never EVER had this happen before.

It's hard not to feel the AI is getting a little personal. O_o The question of anthropomorhizing AI just got surreal.

Probably just a blip, right.

Welp, back to YouTube. I'm trying to stay outa trubba and I keep bouncing back out into the fray. Kinda wondering now if the whole Tom watch thing is me just trying to cheer Pinky up. I can tell she likes it because she laughs, so I guess I'll keep doing it.

I bin a bad Love Monkey

Sorry, guys, I got so distracted that I didn't realize I'd chopped off some of my content! This is what happens when you're juggling 5 things at a time. The most important screenshot came this close to the Tom Cavanagh shave or brush teeth challenge, so technically he's there but it never got filmed, so this one is a big old NO.

I do have a few more Tom ss for you tho, again, my bad for burying these under a pile of other stuff in my phone.

See, I thought the series was going toward these two eventually realizing they were each others' destinies, but either I'm a poor judge or this show turned into a cameo production to promote new music talent or something, but yeah.

Random snip click that wasn't blurry.

I looked up feckless, btw. Yes, seriously. I think it's dumb that the only types I hear use it in sentences, on film or in real life, are better-than-thou types. I'm assuming that means the writer throwing it into the dialogue was one of those types, which makes sense because this show is so jammed packed with dialogue and narrating scenes that I barely had time to register emotional shots before scene jumps. Not complaining, just observing. That's actually why I'm on my third watch now, because so much flies right by me. Anyway, I feel I have the right to observe this because I myself have been told a number of times I'm an intellectual snob, but I've never used feckless in my life, for real or in print. I feel like that line needs to be drawn between true intellectualism and showing off.

These next two are super random. You're welcome. I only got them because his makeup looks better than mine and I'm kind of jealous.

Ok, that's your Tom fix, gotta run. Have a great day.

sci-fi

There are people in this world who are utterly uninterested in science fiction, which is fine. I happen to prefer science fiction and have leaned that way since I was very young, so I see it as a sort of brain thing. Scifi fits my brain. It's not a good or bad thing, it's just a thing.

For those wondering what the difference actually is between science fiction as opposed to just fiction, it can boil down to one word, technology. Quite often the character development and relationships are about the same as regular fiction, but the plot becomes enhanced or even very entangled with technology happening around the characters in addition to their development and relationships.

Some people think of spaceship shows or futuristic scenarios when they think of scifi, but that isn't necessarily the case. Scifi is tech becoming a main player along with the characters, part of the plot device for how their story rolls out. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. For instance, if characters are working in a tech facility in any capacity, it's not science fiction if that tech has nothing to do with the characters progressing in their story, it's just a background, like scenery. It's a description. But the second the characters respond to a tech situation that becomes a catalyst in the story, that is scifi. In my mind, scifi basically boils down to tech-motivated storytelling.

The hardest part of science fiction storytelling is plausible science. It doesn't have to be workable in our current reality as long as the premise holds water with the overall story. You can't just make up on the fly tech plot devices and have audience believability. You need to know a little bit about the sciences you snag for stories. If you know nothing about mechanics and physics, for example, and fumble through a scene that makes no logical sense, your readers/viewers will 'break' from the story and eventually think you a hack if that continues.

I have waited nearly 30 years for science that backs up an idea I had for a story. The logic is finally here. Now I wish I'd written it out sooner, because it's holding water. Yes, it was that crazy that I didn't think I could ever share it without becoming a laughing stock. But I am autist, I've been able from a very young age to see things in my mind that are way ahead of the sciences we see coming out over time.

As much as I'd love to share writing it out in real time, it's something that could be easily stolen, so pray that I stay motivated to get this fleshed out over the coming year. Once the story can stand on its own without someone ripping it, changing and adding to it, and profiting on it before I'm finished, I'll probably just publish it for free alongside merching it for anyone who wants to own a copy.

Anyone who has read my 2-3 million words across spacetime, you know I'm good for this being a solid idea with strong integrity. Not your mama's scifi.

Pray. The distraction is strong in this brain. 🙏💖
