I don’t believe “ept” is a word, the antonym of “inept” is “adept”.

Just a humble midwestern tea snob 😆
My mom was into True Blood for a little bit when it first came out, probably because she was trying to fill a Buffy-shaped hole in her entertainment and TB was close enough, lol. She bought me the first novel for Christmas one year and I very quickly donated it, it was so fucking bad. She asked me if she could borrow it, got mad when I told her I’d donated it already, and then sad when I told her it would ruin her enjoyment of the show by being complete and utter trash xD
Oh, interesting! I may have to give the series a shot, then - I pretty much hate-read the books, hoping at first that he would get better and then later hoping that someone would just fucking kill him lol
Depends entirely on the tea, but, if black: at home it’s usually hot, with a half to a full teaspoon of raw sugar and a splash of milk. At work it’s usually just hot and straight, no sugar or milk. If green: hot, sometimes honey and lemon, usually just straight. If herbal: hot or chilled depending on the temp outside, no sugar if hot, a bit of sugar if chilled.
I drink a lot of fuckin tea.
Creative entrepreneur. Center screen is for whatever I’m currently working on, be that product design, our website, emailing clients or suppliers, research, whatever. Right screen will have relevant reference material for whatever is on the center screen. Left screen is for music controls/discord, but it’s also a drawing tablet for any time I need to drop the mouse and start hand-drawing for design work, at which point the music and chat move to the right screen.
Amalfi, Italy. My great grandpa was born there, though he immigrated with his family to the US pretty young.
That is really cool! I love nearly abstract photos of real life things.
Moises is an app that isn’t directly intended for making karaoke versions of songs, but you could use it for that purpose. It separates songs out into their parts (guitar, keys, vocals, drum, etc) using assistive AI. You get a few free songs but you have to pay a subscription for more than that.
There’s also StarMaker but you’re limited to the catalog they have and it’s definitely got some dark pattern design. Can be a bit fun but I deleted it pretty quickly.
I’ve heard it called a tens die or a percentile die. D100 is usually saved for the actual 100-sided die in my experience.
did not actually file copyrights on their art with the U.S. Copyright Office.
The way they’ve worded this isn’t really a sufficient explanation of how this works. An artist is automatically granted copyright upon the creation of a work, so it’s not that they don’t have the right to protect their work. It’s just that, without registration, you cannot file a lawsuit to protect your work.
Copyright exists from the moment the work is created. You will have to register, however, if you wish to bring a lawsuit for infringement of a U.S. work.

However, if it’s within 5 years of initial publication, they can still be granted a formal registered copyright and bring the complaint again.
See, the problem is that my definition of “don’t disturb” and their definition are very, very different. I don’t disturb them the same way I don’t disturb bees: oh, look, it’s a few feet away, I’ll just stay over here and mind my own business!
Their definition is: “stay several hundred feet away from me, don’t even look at me, if the air anywhere in my vicinity vibrates as an after effect of you breathing half a mile away I will hunt you the fuck down”
So, like, it’s a fundamental incompatibility. They can’t abide me existing, and I can’t abide them being horrifically aggressive because I dared to exist. Unfortunately for them, I have the advantage of size and tools.
Yep. I’m on immunosuppressive medication so gimme gimme - I’ve managed to only get one very mild case of covid so far and even that was fucking miserable. Do not want, please give more vaccine.
Hey, I gave up being a language prescriptivist; use it if it makes sense to you! Ain’t no one got time to quibble about that shit if what you say makes sense anyway.
I can see it being the midground - inept is bad, adept is good, “ept” is just… “well I guess they don’t suck at it”, lol
