@qorprate most of the discomfort of the cold is in the tensing of the body to try to avoid it what always works for me is to direct my attention to the parts of me that feel warm and then it's like "okay im not gonna die" and ya relax and everything's fine

@zephyr_on_call of course, the portal ourself was nowhere to be found. it's silly but try this: turn off your phone completely, then interact with it pretending it was on. it takes mere seconds of tapping a polished, cold, black block of glass to, uh, make you think...

are there any drugs that temporarily*increase* memory formation? we all know alcohol can wipe you out for an afternoon, but let's say you're getting married or something, don't care about getting drunk, but *do* want to heighten your memory of the day?

@SwiftOnSecurity growing up we had a toyota avalon where the trunk was broken, it wouldn't open unless we pulled a coat hanger attached to the inner safety release. went on for five years. the "prevent trunk opening" security switch hidden in the glove cpt had been engaged.

@basedsrini I think it also sets up a false frame, as if our demons are OP & our [ herculean | sisyphysian ] task is to fight forever instead of: our "angels" are at least as strong and awake as our demons & we don't have to fight so much as we need to deeply relax into inherent goodness

@MusingOx @Goodtweet_man afaik in the idea of confession it is not between confessor and priest, but that the priest is either a stand-in or conduit to God; in this context breaking the trust between the confessor and God is worse than the trust broken between husband and wife

Apparently some people are heating their houses with corn. With most corn stoves, 50lbs will burn for at least 24hrs, and a 56lb bushel of corn is selling for less and less recently -- down to $4.65 national average this week. It'd be about $140/mo during the coldest months.

@sashachapin perhaps it is that for adult converts, they're happily accepting an explanation and solution for feeling "bad" whereas they may not have had one before with kids, ime you're told you're bad before you ever *feel* like you're bad

i love following good writing advice because it also happens to be extremely good advice for living - don't get bogged down by backstory - character is defined by action

Don't bog your screenwriting down with back story. At best, it can deepen motive, but it isn't character. Characters are defined through action. They are the sum of the choices they make. The more choices you force a character to make, the better defined the character.

@ThomasNewsome I'm not sure they can legally ban you from plugging in a battery charger in your unit? They can't enter your unit without 24 hr notice anyway, so it seems trivial to disobey, and I doubt that it's as much of a hazard as they think...
