Doing better now, + answers from Q&A
11 years ago
Well, between private messages and comments I'd say that wasn't a bad turnout for a first-time Q&A. Now let's get crackin' (names have been removed to protect the innocent).
Q: What IS that image in the thumbnails you keep using? Is it a planet, an explosion, what?
A: It's my left eye
Q: What is your take on the hobby lobby SCOTUS decision? And How about the demands today to allow bosses of companies to ignore anti-discrimination laws because their religion claims homosexuality to be evil?
A: Long story short: I believe in the seperation of church and state, the seperation of businesses and the owners thereof, and the right of a woman to decide what happens to her body and still get equal treatment for it. This decision was a MASSIVE fuck-up on the part of SCOTUS for ignoring all three of those.
And as for those bosses and religious leaders: the letter they sent to President Obama said, quote, "We must find a way to respect diversity of opinion on this issue in a way that respects the dignity of all parties to the best of our ability. There is no perfect solution that will make all parties completely happy."
And you know what? They're right: there isn't. But there IS a solution that would grant all parties EQUAL FUCKING CIVIL RIGHTS! Guess which one I lean towards?
Q: Purple?
A: Purple!
So yeah, 3 questions was honestly better than I was expecting. We got a light one, a heavy one and a silly one. I am kinda disappointed nobody gave me a big list o' questions, but still: good start.
My back is all beter now (though this won't be the last time I'm off due to injuries) and in the time it took to heal I posted my first ever bit of pr0n to the site. Shockingly, it was the most popular thing I've ever written Yeah, I know. Sex sells and all that but honestly people? I'm not here to write porn. I'm here to write poems, songs and stories. Porn is just what happens when I get bored, so don't expect too much of it unless I feel a poem could use more titties.
Anyway...
The upcoming week is looking good. There'll be a 5-Sentence Sunday later today (after I'm done baking biscuits), then on Monday there'll be another Something Else Entirely (one I'm rather proud of). Tuesday is actually my birthday... but I won't be able to properly celebrate it until Wednesday. So unless the schedule changes Tuesday will probably be the extremely long-in-the-making Day 2 of Hard To Get. Wednesday is when I'll be out celebrating, so probably nothing then. I'm currently working on what's probably my most ambitious writing ever (at least for this site) with the lyrics for a song that I'm writing. I actually won't be doing any music for it (I can already tell that what I envisioned is way the hell out of my depth) but even just the lyrics are incredibly challenging. But then, what do you expect when you're using amphibrachic tetrameter with more irregular feet than you can shake a stick it? (poetry nerds, feel free to make this face now )
The music that I'm working on is in a weird place right now. The basic ideas that I had are more or less done, but they seem to be lacking something to really make them stand out. I'm looking into that, but I can give no real timescale for when they'll be finished. Might be by the end of the week, might be sometime next week.
I've been thinking about opening up commissions for people who want something written, but I'm not sure there's a sufficiently big market to even bother with unless I wanna get back into pr0n (just so we're clear here folks: I fucking love me some good porn but writing it is, to me, a lengthy process that isn't remotely as satisfying as just reading someone else's; that, and I do plenty of it on F-List these days, so it's not exactly an exotic prospect anymore). I dunno, people. What do you think? Would anybody be interested in commissioning something here? I honestly won't be offended if the answer is no.

also, thanks a ton for your support of my position, then. better than my ex-girlfriend could muster, and her and I are still close friends. I tell ya, it ain't easy being Bi in North-Florida.
anyway, I don't remember reading the pr0n. I shall has to look agains for da pr0n.
and finally, what is amphibrachic even mean?
And I think you might have to amend that statement slightly, more along the lines of, "It ain't easy being in Florida."
Finally: an amphibrach is one non-accented beat, followed by an accented beat, finished by a non-accented beat. Dr. Seuss is probably the best-known American user of it:
"All ready / to put up / the tents for / my circus.
I think I / will call it / the Circus / McGurkus.
And NOW comes / an act of / Enormous / E[/b]nor[/b]mance!
No former / performer's / performed this / performance!"
But surely there ain’t any cause to be worried
Our fingers ain’t gentle; our motions are hurried
Also, amphibrachic tetrameter can be cheated if you know how, because the Russians figured out that it still sounds great if you replace the last amphibrach on the line with an iamb.
Which means a full four lines might look, oh I dunno, a little something like this
But surely there ain’t any cause to be worried
Our fingers ain’t gentle; our motions are hurried
But rest assured we have but only begun
We'll sweep your soul up in a daze and a flurry
"Our fingers aren'tgentle", instead of ain't, and "We'll sweep up your soul" instead of sweep your soul up.
Yes... That's much better.
also, you use basically the same method of editing that I do. XD write it out more than once, proofread, tweak.
