Every single time I get naked.

It’s a chore.

Dry rape? Bro it’s a torture thing today

But don’t you know condoms burst at the sight of my shlong? It has nothing to do with the fact that the sight of naked me dries up a pussy quicker than a fucking hairdryer.

Sometimes my car decides to play some radio before connecting to my phone. It’s an unfortunate side-effect of owning a not-too-nice car.

Radio DJs are little more than advertising agents nowadays. Or worse, wannabe entertainers.

Making car-pedestrian collisions safe is a ridiculous idea failed to doom from the start. Cars are big and hard, people are small and squishy.

I think the key is to prevent cars and people from coexisting as much as possible.

Oh it depends massively for me. One of my best (IMHO) short stories is 8k and was written over 10-12h in a day.

But that has to be a pretty special day.

On bad days I usually go into the negatives 😂

December

Haha, more like the entire next year.

Oh yeah. Some of my worst work is on those mega-inspired days where I sit for 10h and crank out 10000 words.

To this day I don’t know why I do that if I end up throwing most of it away.

Maybe it’s good to get bad plot out of the system.

And she absolutely kills it.

For context, I use obsidian on a PC, an iPad (with or without keyboard), and an iPhone. I use obsidian sync to keep everything going, and that works like a dream. None of my criticism is of sync itself.

Now, the complaints.

The iOS/iPad app is on the shitty side of usable for me. Navigating notes is very clunky, organising them is nigh impossible, and there are so many little UI papercuts that there’s just too much to list.

And I’m true online complaint style, I shall now try to list them:

  • long pressing a tab on iPad brings up a context menu or makes the tab drag-able to reorder. One of the two, with no indication of which is which at the time you start pressing, like some sort of shroedingers pachinko long press function.
  • if you’re a fast typer (I use obsidian, among other things, to write novels), then good luck with special characters. One in a while, obsidian will decide that you want all of them at the start of the line and nowhere else is acceptable.
  • in the same vein, sometimes the cursor will disappear, or just chill above other UI elements like the tab bar.
  • so you’re scrolling through a long file and happened to touch a link? Oh you meant to drag the link to keep scrolling? Fuck you, you are now in the note the link sends you to. Did you press back? Fuck you again, start scrolling from the top.

I could go on for a very long time, but the message is that the app is very clunky, very hard to use efficiently, and feels very out of place among other high-quality apps I use on a daily basis.

Anyone else have a similar experience?
