I solve this problem by not writing a book and masturbating.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 73 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yes. It is very easy to masturbate while not writing.

[–] Gork@lemm.ee 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Easy for you to say. I struggle with this.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 years ago

So that's your trick, you write pamphlets instead of book, I see. I'll try that next time

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Bro. I swear to god me, you, and a user called “the piccard manoeuvre” are like the only three users on here.

Like I see y’all everywhere. I had discussions with you in many places at this point.

[–] Denvil@lemmy.one 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Only 3 users? Don't you count us lurkers out, we're here too. We're always here... always.

I have a lot of free time at the moment, although that's going to end next year.

[–] MajesticSloth@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Will you still have time to masturbate while not writing?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

It won't be November anymore, so what's the point?

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What happens next year?

You don’t have to share. Just curious is all.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My daughter starts a new online school program and I have to be a "learning coach" which basically means I have to keep an eye on her during the school day and help her when she needs it.

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ah nice. It’s nice to have something to do like that.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I think it will be very difficult, but rewarding. Going down to a single income sucks, but she had to be taken out of school because of some serious bullying. I just hope this will make her happier.

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You sound like a great person. I’m sorry that your daughter had to go through bullying and even worse, she is the one that has to change her life.

I wish you both success.

You’re right, it’s a terrible time to drop to a single income.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Thanks, I really appreciate it. Have a good holidays!

[–] clearedtoland@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This thread went longer and more serious than I could’ve imagined at the outset. Glad I stuck with it! Congrats on the mod role (maybe I’m late to notice?).

Sorry to hear about your daughter and income situation. Kids, and the parents that raise them that way, can be such di**s.

The Picard manoeuvre is everywhere, don't know if I've ever seen you guys.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'm here too, as well as VikingHippie

[–] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

Some of the meme gods of !risa@startrek.website will grace other communities with their fire hose of content.

[–] drew_belloc@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

Impossible, i've tried so hard and still wrote at least a 3 pages story

[–] M137@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Or you could solve it by nut writing a book. Make it a two birds, one stone thing, but more like "many nuts, one book"

[–] Sondermotor@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

There's a 50k word novel that doesn't use the letter E. Doubling the word count while only using A, C, G, T, & U is on another level.

[–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago (1 children)

whats with the book writing thing? First I'm hearing about it.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 60 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

New Novel November

(November is National Novel Writing month in which you're encouraged to write a 50k+ word novel)

Does anyone actually do any those challenges? I always thought it was a joke.

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

A lot of people do No Shave November, I assume anyone who says they do No Nut November is joking and I've never heard of the book one until now

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The communities for both of those challenges are so far apart that I doubt anyone does both.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Does anyone actually do either though?

I'm doing no shave and trying to grow a beard. It's not going very well lol, it looks like shit

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

It takes at least a month to get past the itchy and scraggly stage into something dignified.

[–] jerome@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why are you guys doing this to yourselves?

[–] yamanii@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Didn't know about the novel one, but I already forgone NNN when doctors said it was bullshit.

[–] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

National Novel Writing Month, often abbreviated NaNoWriMo, is an annual event encouraging people to finally write that novel they've always said they would. The goal is to write 50K words during the month. There are usually meet ups, writing workshops, and other gatherings so participants can encourage each other, share ideas, and generally have fun being part of a thing.

Edit to add: The "nation" is the USA I'm assuming. I'm in the USA and have only heard of it being a US thing. Presumably if you live somewhere else and want to write a book in November, the various online communities would be glad to have you though.

[–] worldsayshi@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great now I have to write a 50k word novel in 82 minutes.

Since when do you have to write a 50k novel?

[–] voidMainVoid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

They're talking about National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo) which is November.

[–] TheSanSabaSongbird@lemdro.id 4 points 2 years ago

Also, 50k words is pretty short for a novel. It's more of a novella.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So is self-flagellation, if you’re into self-denial and masochism. Make of that statement what you will.
