Tangential, I have noticed a trend with customer emails (wide spread, many multiples companies) that makes me believe more people are using LLMs to write reply emails & not reading at all.
there's a 'jje ne sais quoi' to not just them not answering questions but *how* they're not answering questions.
I can't put my finger on it, but it's tripping my spidy-sense / pattern recognition.
#PennedPossibilities 1022 — How would your MC like to be remembered after their death? What sort of legacy would they want to leave?
That's a tragic question for Medb.
With the destruction of her universe there's none of her people left to remember her. There's nobody to perform the rites and add her name to the Litany of the Long Winter should she die in battle. Her daughters Aeslla and Rowyn died before they were of age to go before The Council of Eria, face their trials, and add Medb's name to their Line of Remembrance.
For her, there's no how-would-she-like-to-be-remembered, because there's no one that can remember her. And it is a heavy heavy weight upon her because it goes hand-in-hand with there being nobody to help her perform the rites to add all the names of her people to the Litany of the Long Winter.

I had a dnd character based around magpies and ravens. Learned a lot, and surprised how many branches/relations during my research.
"Survival of fittest" was never 'the biggest & strongest survive', it's always been about adaptation & mutual cooperation
And to soapbox; this is why human societies keep cycling through collapses, step by step walking towards an earth they're going to have a hard time surviving on
At least I was sitting in the right place to have the shit scared out of me when the cat snuck into the bathroom and cannon ball jumped at my chest.

I tend to nerd out on something, and like a resonating frequency it attracts some of similar resonance, and repels the dissimilars

I was a huge Alice Cooper fan. The first album I bought was School's Out. Saw him live twice, even got to meet him one year in Detroit.
Haven't bought anything since he went on that anti trans skreed years ago. Put all the CDs in storage.
Wept, burried the dude that would hate me if I met him again since transitioning.
Burried him, and moved on even with worse than a hole to fill.. a catalogue of tainted memories.

#WordWeavers 2026-02-30 — Do you write scenes out of order?
Yes.
Sanguine Dreams is being written non sequentially, but with sequential continuity.
Abstractly progress looks like
- 50% of ch2
- 100% ch1
- place holder note ch5 to flipside of ch4
- 35% ch3
- scene within ch8
- finshed ch2
- a chunk of ch6
- 25% of ch4
- anchor scene for ch10
- 50% of ch3
- finished ch4
- another chunk of ch6
- finished ch3
Etc
Etc
It's a larger project so I am being more reverent with listening when the muses say to write what part they've made ready to reveal
And if you were curious, no I don't have an outline. This is just how my brain puts the jigsaw puzzle together.

2026-02-28 How well did this short month go for you, in terms of writing?
At some point I went from 14.5k to 17k words
I know it's not even a tarnished bronze trophy worth, but I'll take my little victory

Yup.
But on the bright side management won't care because they're adding value for the shareholders

Most people get extremely uncomfortable when confronted with how insignificant they are.
I find reminders like this comforting.
