Tonight’s fine distinctions are “Proverb” vs “Adage” vs “Maxim” vs “Aphorism” vs “Epigram.” Okay! All of these have to do with truisms, little bits of wisdom in small digestible form. Proverbs are traditional and folksy. “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.”...

Tonight we are FINALLY going to learn about the distinction between a “snitch” and a “rat.” A snitch informs on others; they are a tattletale. A rat informs on their own; they are a traitor. Oooh, and it gets one shade deeper than that, too, because there are “true”...

I had a lot of anxiety today. Just…so much to do. Not sure how I’m going to do it all, because it’s too much to do. All at once, at least, which is how I want to do it. I want it all done now. But…when it’s not possible to do everything all at once, you gotta just...

I have a super sensitive sense of smell. Or, at least more sensitive than most. Or, at least, more sensitive than Liz, lol. But I think it’s probably, objectively, on the ‘sensitive’ side of things. So…like, I’ve never worn cologne or body spray, really. They tend to...

This NBA gambling scandal is wiiiiild. And completely expected, to be frank, given how much all pro sports have embraced gambling over the last seven years. It’s gonna keep happening, too, so long as they continue to embrace it, and it remains so rampant online. It...

Whew. Wiped tonight, so we’ll make it a quick one. Save our fine distinction for tomorrow. Actually, let’s tease what it will be, let’s see…lol. It’s “Snitch” vs “Rat.” Ha! Perfect. That will be tomorrow. Today…worked hard today. Both writing-wise and work-wise. No...

Today’s fine distinction is “Typeface” versus “Font.” This is a GOOD one! Typeface refers to a typographical design system. Helvetica for example. Font refers to one of a typefaces many weights (heavy, medium, thin, etc.) or styles (roman, italic, condensed, etc.)....

It’s late so we’ll be making this a quick one. Work was busy! Got it done, though. Writing was tough. I had a big new idea, but I don’t know if it’s any good yet, so I’m a little stuck. I’ll noodle on it more tomorrow. Got my Shakespeare done! This play is taking an...

Tonight’s fine distinction is a timely one: Autocrat vs Despot vs Tyrant vs Dictator. An autocrat is someone who rules with absolute power. A despot is someone who rules with absolute power cruelly and oppressively. A tyrant is someone who illegitimately rules with...

I have a friend who’s very sick. They needed help eating tonight, so we went over and made sure that happened. Soup and lemonade, but good lemonade. Trader Joe’s was out of it, so I went to Ralph’s, but their selection was mediocre at best…but there was also a...
