Yeah that’s what my dad and brother said.

There’s a lot to unpack there.

I didn’t write at all 16 of the past 30 days because there was disaster after disaster after fight after panicking over insignificant bullshit after having to calm down after every setback. I would have been finished with the book by now.
 
IF, and it’s a big fucking if, I can write 3,000 words every day for the next 3 days I can get to 26,000 total (80% of my original goal), and rush through this and get something finished. I’ll have to rush through some sections and probably not finish my whole argument, but I don’t have the time. I have to have a book ready by Monday.

@UrbanMysticDee  
I’m terrible at writing anything long. The longest thing I’ve ever written was Power Rangers Fanfiction.

@Dex Stewart  
I’ve written two books, the last one in 2014 which was 82,000 words (handwritten in minuscule print on every square inch of 51 sheets of paper, some of which were cut up, rearranged, and taped back together) that was written in 79 days, with about 10 days of prep time in 2010 when I came up with the story and outlined it. That comes to about 1,044 words per day, which is about as fast as I’m writing this new book. One day when I get the time I will edit that book and self publish it after the election book.
 
The most I’ve in a single day is about 4,500 words for my 2015 essay on the Resurrection. I wrote that in 8 hours. During the first 4 hours I listened to the song Echelon on endless loop. Despite outliers like that I’m only really productive for 2 or 3 hours a day. When I write I really enter a trance and it’s like watching a movie and I’m just taking dictation. It is extremely difficult to enter that state, very easy to come out of it, and it’s really the only time I ever feel alive. It’s the only time I don’t feel like a robot trapped in a world of zombies.
 
I wrote most of my 2016 election essay, which was 5,300 words, in a single day and didn’t sleep for 60 hours. And thank God I did because that essay is the first chapter of the new book and makes up 1/3 of its current length. I’d be totally dead in the water if I hadn’t been keeping a diary for 9 years and had a lot of this stuff already written, I just need to edit it and arrange it properly.

I tried to write a story once. I got to… I think it was 6 chapters–very long chapters–when the computer I was on died. I never bothered again. Worth noting is that I had also taken collective days to plan out certain characters and events in advance, as well as typing up a shitload of personal worldbuilding notes on places, people, groups and objects. I spent an entire day just putting together equipment for the primary cast and writing out backgrounds for them. I’d been at it for about a month when I lost it and it just killed all desire I had to write anymore.

I wish I Could find the artist drawing those fucking fusion comics and the retard who keeps commissoning them and hurt them really fucking bad.

@Terminal Red  
Example?

The 32nd season of Simpsons is being promoted as being the first season to have no whites in non-white roles.  
I’m SO glad the show burned out before this social justice crap started.  
I guess they’ll have to find alot of yellow people.  
Hey,wait,what about Japanese people? Will they get white people? They are the whitest people…  
Well,except for these kids.  
 
Or did they get retired after their VA died?  

The restaurant my parents went to forgot something in what they ordered me.

@Officer Hotpants
 
This, I’m sure. >>2678577
 
For a while there it kind of felt like this comic was the only thing being uploaded on DB. And then subsequently getting imported here.

@ANoobis  
Oh. Weird.

@ANoobis  
I cannot lie, It’s got big butts, what’s not to love?

@Dex Stewart  
The Simpsons lost its soul after “The Principal and the Pauper” imo, but after Maude’s death all definitely went down.

@UrbanMysticDee  
The part where the number of big butts keeps getting cut in half.

@Officer Hotpants  
But they combine to form an even bigger butt. Quality over quantity. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.

@Anonymous #31E2  
I liked Principal and the Pauper.  
I liked Simpsons for about the first twenty-some seasons,there were clunkers in there,but for me I didn’t lose interest until the movie had come out. My family went to see it,enjoyed it,but the show felt uniquely empty after that.

@Dex Stewart  
This one?

@Zaknel  
Yeah. I don’t dislike it as much as everyone else does.  
It’s weird,I’m more bothered by a later episode that casually kills off Fat Tony and immediately replaces him with his cousin who happens to look and sound just like him by the end of the episode. His name even changes to Fat Tony.

I’m hitting all my targets but I don’t feel any closer to actually finishing the book. There’s just so much. No matter how much time I spend on this, no matter how much I write, there’s always more. There’s just an infinite amount of stuff to cover. I’ve gone through 20 sources these past two days reading stuff and watching videos but I’ve got 170 more covering at least 10 more topics. It’s just not possible to condense 16 days of lost time into 3 days of working myself to death.

And I just destroyed my $300 fucking dollar headphones.

@acres  
Wow that sucks. I could never afford those kind of headphones/earphones.

@coolmaster43232  
well, what makes it worse is they were a gift from my uncle for my birthday. So I wasted his money.

@acres  
Aww that sad. My dad has noticed that you can hardly find earphones any more. He usually see earbud type instead of the muff type.
