You can just write movie _article_ reviews 🤷

Passion fruit vine is like a _weed_ in fact in Northern California, and will take over if you are not careful, but can produce huge volumes of amazing fruit.

Adjusting for the inflation of anxiety and desperate feelings caused by the world around us right now.... Yes.

"It's only racism if it's from Jim Crow region of the southern United States. Otherwise it's sparkling white justice."

Succumb to the Big Falls lobbyists, have you? Out there shilling for the beauty of nature now... {shakes head}. You've changed, man.

Oh, and of course congrats! (only just now saw the Sawyer Lee book in there after you pointed out the Warriors book)

The problem comes when people use dangling carrots for everything, which can actually undermine/remove intrinsic motivations even for creative work, turning everything into a transaction.

Not entirely clear to me from the article.

Yeah, I'm thankful my parents divorced before I even have memories. Wasn't easy growing up with divorced parents, but I'm _completely_ sure it would have been even harder had they stayed together

To those who haven't read it - this is a surprisingly great book, and not just because it's a well-written fantasy tale - it's a little absurdist, placed in inconsistent time settings, having characters seemingly from different books all together. It's much much more than just unicorns and rainbows!

Maybe it was never actually about getting rid of the most immigrants. Maybe it was always just about getting to do violence on people they don't like.
