I'm sort of in the same boat. I have 2 chapters to go on my 3rd. I've had 2 chapters to go for years. But publishing and audiences have changed, and I think there's just a little too much 'damsel in distress' in it to be palatable to today's audiences. Which means starting over. And I just don't have the gumption.

I'm sorry man. I discovered something on an online shop recently but I don't think I will post it in any of the picture threads or you will become really depressed.
Since you've brought it up, might as well post it now.
I don't know I already feel like a piece of human garbage for what I did this week.
No, so sorry. Nothing like that.
Again, might as well post it now. You've already brought "something" to my attention. And I hate vague posts Ike that. Just post it.
I just paid for pizza delivery. With cash.
It felt so weird.

Alright, fine. So I was looking up the new Blacksad comic release on Amazon and discovered some Detective Novels in the style of those old pulp storys.
There are multiple books with different characters. Haven't read any of them though.

Meh, that doesn't bother me at all. Anthro detectives is hardly an original idea. Elephantmen, Blackman, Dog City. This doesn't bug me at all.

Burn After Reading (2008), a Coen Brothers movie.
Gas also didn't mention that's Brad Pitt
Pitt also put on some weight for that role, which makes them look even more similar
Man, this hits me hard. I have a MILDLY higher tolerance than depicted here, but not by much. Being an introvert is energy draining sometimes.
Not even hiding in the bathroom would help me. I hate most gatherings/parties (unless it's nerds or car people) and I'd only be able to relax once I got into the car to leave. (Maybe that's why I love cars so much, they're my safe space.
) I felt sympathetic anxiety for the woman reading the book, though. I would respond politely like she did, but internally I'd be screaming "Why are you talking to me?????!!!!!"
Yeah, I have a friend who can't function unless he has social interactions nearly daily. Me? Leave me alone for a week and it would be the happiest time for me.
Also, I would not even go to that party. I've never been to one like that and would not be able to stand it for long. I hate crowds.

Haven't watched the video, but... People tend to mix up introvert/extrovert and social/antisocial.
Me, I really do like and need social interaction....But ti's also incredibly wearing and exhausting for me. My wife, she likes and needs social interaction, but she gets energized and activated by it, so that's not much of a problem for her. My mother finds social interaction exhausting but also doesn't need it much. My wife's a social extrovert, my mother's an antisocial introvert. I'm some sort of mix, needing the interaction but also dreading it :-P

Sounds like a functional introvert or an extroverted introvert, somewhere on the spectrum of it. You enjoy social interactions but it's draining sometimes.
Me, I enjoy small gatherings of maybe half a dozen. I don't do well in huge parties like that video.

Dammit I hate public transportation where I'm at, its ONLY efficient for going to work, not for like getting groceries or going to my favorite game store, just fucking insanity. Would it KILL Njtransit to have just ONE MORE fucking rt 315 bus, just ONE MORE?!

It’s cheaper and easier just to have a guido come by your place and eliminate you.
The masala is delicious, though not as good as their long discontinued 'curry' flavour.
The cucumber is weird, but tasty... eventually.
Haven't had the chicken and tomato yet!
