I hate both of you because your conversation is both navel-gazing and puerile

External validation helps me keep moving. If you see threads with pdfs or images you like, mittens and/or constructive criticism are encouraged.



Please clap.

I was much the same with my writing.  Things didn't go well.  So I stopped.

I like your stuff, so I will in fact clap.  Fuck the haters.

Eh, I don't think anybody's hating. Just that kinda "Good Ol' QGP" thing. I mean, it's not like people asked me to take on dumb projects in the first place.

Thanks for getting it, though.

Cain has been there, too, and I am just as guilty as the next guy.  He'd write a fascinating analysis, and I'd read it and enjoy it and move on.

And I hollered about conversation on pieces the loudest while I was doing it.

I'm usually lurking. It's a lame excuse, but it's at least part of why I don't login and contribute more. However, you should know I've happily posted some of your propaganda. This one resides on the microwave in the prep lab of my teaching lab. Strangely, none of my TAs have said anything about it.

I've also read some essays out loud to family members. Teenage boy likes them although I edit a few of the four letter words out. And I'm taking a print version of "Holy Nonsense" as a gift for my 30 year old daughter.

I definitely am guilty of not saying enough when I see something cool here. I also tend to get about half through things and get distracted but although I'll think about it never quite get back to it. You do some very fine work QG!

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.
