I’ve previously written about Retail Screaming, and now I want to write about retail OTT. In early April, I went to a store to buy an item. A lot happened. The staff didn’t open the store on time. The staff kept standing close to me (during an outbreak and compulsory mask wearing). […]

Things You Shouldn’t Have In Your Home After You Turn 30
We all know that turning 30 means you’re an adult. None of this bullshit adult at 18 or 21 stuff, 30 is where the real adulting begins. Before I get into things that you’re a freaking disaster for if you own them after 30, let me remind you why 30 is so important: it’s […]
Impasta Syndrome
I think impasta sounds funkier than imposter, and in possibly related reasons, see post title for why SEO is irrelevant for me. In early April I playing with some basic mapping out of my plans for the rest of the year. I was thinking about when to launch my writing course. The general idea […]
Kooky
The only way I learn that there are Kookaburras hanging out in my backyard is by the birds that are attacking them. I feel like this is a weird comment on nature. Or that if we applied it to humans they’d get super pissed off and tell me that it’s unrealistic. Or maybe I’m tired, […]
Can I Quit My Job and Earn 6 Figures On The Internet Tomorrow?
Can I Quit My Job and Earn 6 Figures On The Internet Tomorrow? No. You could possibly maybe at a stretch earn six figures next week, but those figures will probably look like 3c, 1c, 5c, 3c, 1c & 0.5c. Probably not the six figures you had in mind. “But what about […]
Why I Wrote The Secret Ingredient Of
Back when I published Fuck Should, I also published a blog post explaining why I wrote it. A large part of why I wrote it surrounds advice given and how you assess its value and apply it to yourself. Why I Wrote The Secret Ingredient Of In a change of pace, I thought […]
A New Laptop Will Make You A Successful Writer (And Other Lies)
The things us writers tell ourselves… well, I guess it’s no surprise that we can be creative. That is hopefully a given. I kind of like/hate it when it manifests itself through technology though. There’s something about a tightly sealed box, freshly minted plastic and electronics… it’s such a sweet, sweet smell. […]
In N Out
I tried to go out. But people were everywhere. As someone who has had to “nine to five” her whole life, school, uni, jobs… it baffles me that people are “allowed” out during the day. And yes, it really does feel like allowed. Because when your introduction to those hours is the powerless environment of […]
Retail Screaming
You’d think I mean people screaming at retail assistants. I mean, that shouldn’t happen, but I assume it does. Particularly as I’m writing this blog post as a draft, towards the end of November 2020. Because Xmas. But I mean more that retail screams at you, seemingly as a way to welcome you or […]
Vaguely Toxic
As much as most “good” people on the internet talk about mental health in a positive way, I find that there’s a large difference in the range of reactions. Or support. One person can say “I’m having a bad day” and their fan base will latch on and shower them with false statements and love […]
