They could accomplish 100k in Ukraine even if it ment sending 800k walking across Siberia and letting 700k die along the way.

Imagine if that first ape that climbed down from the trees went "Nah." And climbed back up.

Character details should really only be expounded upon if they drive the narrative forward. You don't just sprinkle them in for the fuck of it if they serve no purpose. This can be in a small way, eg a prominent scar that drives the immediate conversation towards some other engagement, its relevance lasting half a page. Or in a more long-term way like an adverse reaction to an older male stranger nearby, hinting at a violent childhood experience that manifests as an avoidant behaviour, which may drive further recurring narrative elements, or be a challenge that must be overcome as part of the character arc.

If the nipple piercings never come up again in the story, but the character still shares about them unprompted, this could still work towards character development by being a hint that the character has Aspergers.

I haven't done any art in 15 years, and that was just watercolors. I've been having a shit week today and saw some pastels and sketchpads for sale at the post office, so I got them. I've never worked with pastels before, but I really like them so far, they seem fairly forgiving.

This is my second drawing ever with them, and I'm really happy with how it came out. I want to practice more, but I think the picture tells the story I wanted to tell.

 

If I set an alarm for two hours from now, it will go off. I've tested this a few times.

But my morning alarms, at 6:07 and 6:13 am, just don't go off. I've been testing this for like a week now and I cant figure it out. Later in the day, maybe 3 or 4 hours later, the phone will alert me that I missed the alarm, even when my body clock wakes me up before the alarm and I lay awake watching my phone tick past the alarm time without it ever twitching or doing anything.

So far, I've tried:

  • Deleting all alarms and recreating them
  • Clearing the app cache and data, then rebooting
  • Removing Duraspeed system app which I suspected of causing problems
  • Toggling every setting and widget related to alarms and DND I can find

Here's my alarm setup:

Clock app settings:

Android sound settings:

Now, I suspected it was some battery thing killing the app, or DND preventing it from going off, but these settings all look correct to me:

And just now, its warned me about the missed alarm that I laid awake watching not go off:

Any ideas about what else to investigate, or what else to do? Should I just download and rely on a different alarm app or something?
