I have been bouncing around from injury to surgery to illness and back for the last 5 months, and I have been unable to focus on anything for the last two weeks. Surprisingly, my grad school work hasn't suffered in grades (it has a wee bit in quality, but still good enough for A's); I expect there is some writing I can do by rote.
yay, my intelligence is confined to semantics and other word games ;>
So I got this cough now, which I've had on and off since Jan ( right as I was recovering fully from the damn gall bladder). I'm pretty sure it aint Kung Flu, but I expect we have a mold issue with the house.
so my health, the Steemit Saga, and the corona virus have combined to put me off my last writing plan completely. I'm too lazy to look up the last published strategy, and it don't matter nohow.
[EDIT: with the release of HIVE, piss on Steemit]
There are some directions I'm going to take
- Due to an uncertain Steem future, I'm going to put the bulk of my serious writing up on Patreon. No link now, coz I don't have enough good material on the site yet, and that requires some focus which I no got now. Steem future is not just uncertain financially, but in terms of decentralization, which to my mind, is more central to the promise of steem. And, that is NOT just Justin CCPfront, but a community which seems more interested in catpic posting than free speech and debate.
By catpic posting, I mean a smooth and noncontroverisal community where no butts are hurt by meanymean words, and all feelfeelz are protected - On Patreon, I will be charging 5 bucks a month (I think). That plan is contingent or not on whether i can rig up some referral kickback. The goal would be to take a dollar off for every referral a suscriber makes, so getting 5 active referrals would be a free ride for a subscriber. Haven't looked at the feasibility of this yet.
- Steemit posting is going to be limited to quick and easy posting. Funny stuff, snarky political commenting like the Not-Quite-the-Ministry-of-Truth-News is likely (unless the butts get too hurt LOL), sex fiction, and roleplaying games (not sex, but AD&D, GURPS, and that kind of shit)
Basically, anything I can sit down and do with not too much effort...i.e, this post will be written and posted in just one sitting - Speaking of which, my next post is going to be either a sex story OR a fantasy(D&D type) fiction story, depending on feedback to this post.
Thanks for reading, and stay safe!

Check out the post I just resteemed, looks like Steem is getting a HardFork into Hive now. Will be interesting to say the least.
Sounds like you got a bad case of a lingering flu? Wishing you well!!
I went throught he gallbladder thing to. Funnily enough i'm pretty sure i was low grade poisoning myself via bad food with all the fast food i ate for lunch for years, these energy powders i mixed into water had Red 40 and other bad shit in it, other foods with additivies and bad stuff in it. I think my body finally said ENOUGH and was basically shutting down. Went on a 300 to 400 calorie a day diet cause thats all i could handle. Took me almost 9 months to start feeling back to normal.
Oh, and watch out for Anti-Caking agents being used in shredded cheeses, in sauces, cereals. That clogs you up, your body can't get it out quick enough and builds up. Another thing I just discovered I have terrible problems with is the Cyanide they are putting in salts now. Its like Yellow Prussiate of Sodium or something they call it, but its lowkey cyanide. Had a bit of the Iodized salt on my food other day and i was having bloating within hours and felt like i had hyper tension and hot flashes of like being poisoned. its terrible.
I really started reading EVERY label on food and its crazy. Theres Red 40(aka COAL) in fruity pebbles cereal, in Swiss Rolls(AKA ho hos) in snaks, in freezer foods, anything that is red. Its crazy. Its literal coal. I was drinking energry powers with Red 40 Yellow whatever Blue whatever in it daily for like 6 or 7 years.
