Trying to understand the question, I’ll try my best.

I don’t really write except for out of necessity at work, maybe taking occasional notes, and writing my meal plans and grocery lists. Most of that is not by hand except for the meal plans on a whiteboard on the fridge.

My mind says what I want to write, slowly enough for my hand to keep up. If I’m typing on a keyboard then it’s closer to a natural speaking speed. My mind doesn’t really wander because I’m either too focused on the physical handwriting, or whizzing through typing up an email.

I don’t really pay attention to how it looks in the moment, but always notice when I’m done writing by hand that it looks almost exactly like it did when I was 5 years old and first learned to write. Bonus if a few letters or words turned out looking accidentally more adult-written, but it’s a fluke. I do pay attention when typing and catch typos in real time, then correct them when I’m done the sentence.

Writing isn’t my outlet. I have other things for that.

Ergonomics aren’t usually a thought unless I was writing something long by hand, which is rare since finishing school.

Why do you care, and what would you do with that information?

In Canada it was called Beasties, I guess because “wars” wasn’t allowed in the title of a show for kids.

I reconnected with my lifelong friend last weekend and it was great. It’s been about 4 or 5 years. Turns out we’d both gone through a lot of the same shit in that time and were able to share the trauma.

Maybe a hot take, but I’ve never really found horror to be scary at any age. I enjoy it more for the tension and suspense. And cool shit that happens in dark fantastical settings. In fact a lot of movies lose their edge when they reveal “the monster”. It’s better to imagine or only have a slight glimpse, or else it risks getting cheesy.

Pardon me for checking your post history, but I noticed you’ve posted in the Canada community and therefore you might be Canadian. Is it possible you’ve been eating more local fruit this year due to boycotts? I wonder if there’s some relation.

I noticed my Ontario blueberries were very sweet this year, compared to the imported ones I’ve had in the past that could be somewhat bitter or tart. I have no evidence if this is a reason why they’re sweeter though, I’m just guessing.

It’s just for show

On the rare occasion I do order or go out to eat, I prefer food I can’t cook myself very well, like persian or asian food.

This is the way. I don’t have the means or qualifications to handle a rotating shawarma spit. Some things are best left to the experts.

My local arcade has a $5 entry fee, but games are free. The drinks are around $10 though.

I suggest you find a game to play

It’s a slow process. Look at the contrast between how you are currently feeling versus how you were at your lowest and realize the progress that you’ve made.

My work is measurable whether or not my physical body is being observed.

I’ve come close to the threat of homelessness and hold myself accountable to do a good job so that I can keep my job.

It might not be about laziness. Maybe it was for a pregnant woman with a craving. Or a stoner with the munchies. Or someone lost a bet.
