Not wrong, just don’t tell any real estate agents. They will use that valuation as a benchmark for the sale prices of their own property portfolios. The market is already nuts.

I find it interesting that men and women who are deemed losers in society, based on their looks and lifestyle will always go for someone far outside their reach. Low self-esteem is so real and people don’t seem to take it seriously.

Like people who go for the ones who are beyond their reach will NEVER date another person like them. Dating another you is the same as dating yourself, but you are never dating yourself, because the other person is starkly different from you.

They will never see it that way, because of low self-esteem. Why would want to date another unattractive loser, when you can go for some beautiful winner? It’s sad that it is like this.

I know it is fiction, but I admire what Shrek and Fiona has. I wish it was like that more so in the real world.

I blame society for shit like this no matter what.

This is a useful post for my next book! I mean, a standalone novel totally unrelated to the series I’m working on now.

This standalone was inspired by Marilyn Monroe and JFK, asking the question: what if Marilyn had been an ace and had good self-esteem? What if she’d said no to him? Only in my book, these are going to be fictional people, of course. The man is going to be more like Donald Trump; the woman more like Taylor Swift. But the dynamic’s going to be the same. What if a man who treats women like sex objects or prizes absolutely has to have the most famous, popular woman on earth to bolster his ego, only she rejects him? Suddenly he questions his masculinity, his power, his importance. He goes nuts! He does what Donald would do: becomes obsessed and stalks her. His self-esteem won’t recover until he can say he can have literally any woman he wants, so he’s determined to clip that bird’s wings no matter what it takes.

You’ve helped delineate some of the character’s beliefs I’ve had trouble nailing down, so thanks! ( ˆ◡ˆ)Û¶ Ù©(˘◡˘ )

I am so damn sick of people not letting me speak!

From my mom to my friend to a person I am working with, I need to form my thoughts and I need the person to sit there and listen to what I need to say and allow myself to say everything.

I hate that shit! LET ME FUCKING SPEAK AND SAY EVERYTHING I NEED TO SAY!!!

When you talk over me, I can’t form my thoughts and get distracted so fucking stop doing that shit!

When I am completely done, then speak, if you have nothing to say back as a response, then I am wasting my damn time talking to you! Don’t pull that shit again!

I finally worked on my Fictional TV Shows book and added a new entry.

I’m proud of myself for that.

I’m barely on any social media. I’m wondering if creating a Twitter / X account is worth the effort to follow my YouTube subscriptions, anyone I can find from my VK and Facebook contacts, and folks of general interest / curiosity. Get everything / everyone in the one place instead of jumping between sites, and dealing with annoyingly little (if any) news on topics of interest. The completed list of sentient begins I follow would be a entertaining read, at least for graduate psychologists.

Does substack count? It is pretty cool for writers.

I use Cara, it’s anti-ai but it is dedicated to artists

I am thinking about taking a small walk tomorrow around the park in front of my home.
Just to get some fresh air, nothing major. My knee has gotten better since I walked to the library.

Going to take it slow.

I know nothing about substack. How popular is substack outside of the writing field?

Began watching this Japan tourism video last night and I had an idea (a rare occurrence). Creating walking tour styled videos for the towns and cities in Japan, and the other countries I intend to visit, that the tourists tend not to know about or otherwise miss out on.

Now pondering how much a walking tour camera setup costs
Another addition to my non-existent travel budget
