The ex being gay would explain a lot.

I also agree with many of the comments made by @weinerdog @raven1 and @drsawzall. The family dynamic here is unfairly skewed. Seth could have easily covered if he had kept a closer rein on his curiousity and hormones. He needs to practice the 'chest stare' with good peripheral vision. Personally, the removal of driving privileges is a weak threat and double edged because it would also deprive precious Stacey of rides. I'd have said yes to it. Seth's mom needs to start acting more like a parent to Stacey than a friend. I want to know more about the mysterious cutie at the hospital.

The conversation with Loren about throwing the fight with Rydian was long overdue. Talon was oddly the best choice to do it as a damaged and discarded prince himself. Murder princes. Talon's, "I hate me too. Most people do." Is a sad, but succinct distillation of his life before he had his family. Loren has been hiding his deep pain behind playful humor for a long time. This had to be talked out. I see why Kalian and Talon want to shield Wyn as long as they can from the horrors they went through. I doubt it will work.

whim-wham - Word of the Day - Wed Jun 14, 2023
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Whim-wham is also a Scottish Regency trifle dessert which sounds yummy. https://www.food.com/recipe/whim-wham-20621p Although I think adding scotch too would make it better. -
The proximity of the house is the reason I don't see why they use it so little and made such a big issue over the noise.
-
The mental image I had of an imp didn't match the grotesque images I found. I was thinking more elf like.
-
The positive here is Mac is convinced the change will happen even though any promises have been tempered by mere maybes.
-
It's a unique, if bizarre, retelling of Rumpelstiltskin from a different point of view. Thanks.

I have nothing against tablets in general other than the frequently obtuse icons. I can only use a tablet, but only small ones. I just loath Apple.

Absolutely.

This is becoming repetitive. There are ways to do this and include Mac without Devin being Superman single handedly saving the day every time.

All you say is valid, but Devin is still making all the decisions and plans without discussing much of it with Mac. It's his plan or nothing. Devin's ability has given him a superhero complex of solving problems solo. At some of these locations, you'd think there would be cameras. The administration is worried about bad publicity, but failing to notify students even generally about the danger is absolutely inexcusable.

You're telling this to someone who has to convince himself going to the mailbox is worthwhile. LOL

Here Michael is at 26 and thinks he's too old for college. Eric, having been, knows better. I remember a man and his wife in some of my classes and they were in their fifties. Michael's biggest sin here is lashing out in anger at Eric.
-
Michael'is feelings of inadequacy have him screwed up. I guarantee the gentleman at the university taught architecture and Michael impressed him. He needs to take the leap before all his dreams are gone.

imbecility - Word of the Day - Mon Jun 12, 2023
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Until the 20th century, when all three terms were scrapped as offensive, imbecile was a clinical term for intellectual disability between idiot and moron. -
I wish I could find the clip of the comedy skit where the Japanese uber toilet gave everyone who used it an orgasm.
-
The TP shortage did wonders for those hi-tech toilet companies with the wash and blow dry features.
-
There is a Bug Tussle about 15 or 20 miles from here. Wide spot in the road. Had a great steakhouse there until the owner was caught rustling cattle. LOL

Have you run out yet?

The Hoard is a 1962 poem on greed by J.R.R. Tolkien.
-
The pimps master plot to hoard the whored was doomed to failure.
-
At one time, many of the commonplace technologies we have would have been considered magic. Consider skinwalking more of a latent human ability which some few found a way to unlock rather than simply magic.
-
Sometimes your lifetime dreams can sneak up on you. I'm not quantifying the promotion offer as a dream or an opportunity. It's another industry fated to fail. If he chooses college, Eric could be part of the package. Eric alone is too good to pass up. Pete, his biggest excuse, seems to be more than fine on his own.

officious - Word of the Day - Thu June 8, 2023
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Officious people tend to bring out my worst side on overdrive.
