Category: Posts That Should Have Been Tweets

If I ever used Twitter, these random short thoughts would have been tweets instead. But I don’t, so now they’re here.

(Also, if Twitter wasn’t so terrible.)

A tragic realization: In the very near future, most people who read my short story It’s Always Friday will probably think its female “President Harris” character is extremely uninspired and blandly named… Except for the fact that I named the character and wrote the story way back in 2018, long before real-world Kamala Harris was on everyone’s radar, or even mine.

I chose the name by reading lists of common American surnames and looking for one I thought the average person could think sounds presidential enough to vote for, lmao.

(This post is a childish self-defense in advance. And also, maybe a brag I guess?)

Back in high school, there was a kid who needed a fifth year to graduate. Someone asked him about it once and he confidently said he was “taking a victory lap.” To this day it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard.

One time I was daydreaming some fantastical scenario where aliens or government agents or whatever had to call upon me to save the world, but at some point in the daydream my self-insert character went “wait, this doesn’t make sense, this whole situation is just too implausible, I must be a character inside a simulation, I NEED TO BREAK OUT” and I was jolted out of the daydream, terrified of the fact that my mental construct of myself somehow realized it was a mental construct.

I want to read the isekai where the Wicked Witch of the East is reincarnated to Earth after being hit by Dorothy’s house
