I still feel like I succeeded in my mission of "doesn't blatantly look like el wire" :D
Oh also right, this project literally came to me in a dream. Not exactly as implemented ofc, but the concept of an el wire rainbow in etched acrylic channels? Yeah!
An orange, two yellows, a teal, a blue, and a purple, sure that's a rainbow :D
colors aren't quite what I'd hoped (though much more vivid than this photo), but the intent is very clearly there so yay I'm callin' it good.
Also I'm glad I decided to double-stroke the star.

Please let me know if you've heard this elsewhere!
Weird bit of electrician (maybe trades generally?) slang, refrigerator:
A "fridge" is a thing you find food in.
A "reefer" is the appliance you need to dedicate a plug/circuit for.
@Ratttz hey this is a random question but on your job are refrigerators referred to as "reefers"?
Trying to get a handle on how widespread this slang is.
Oh also: yesterday morning they were debating whether a line from The Avengers was a direct homage to Dr Who and yeah here in 2018 it's a joke to think that any of that is "nerdy", when it's at that level of social saturation.
Though, if you listen to both shows carefully, it's clear that they're both carefully calibrated to never say anything that could *actually* offend someone enough to stop listening once you get past the general tone, even though The Men's Room is pretty edgelord.
The afternoon show "The Men's Room"... less so.
I call 'em shock jocks since I don't know a better term, but tbh the morning show hosts on KISW are reasonable people with non-awful politics? There's a bad take every once in a while but they actually do seem to lowkey want to make the world a better place with the show, even as they're loud and crass.
Albuquerque local restaurants, questioning people's tastes
One of the morning show shock jocks here in Seattle occasionally mentions that Dion's pizza in Albuquerque is the best pizza he's ever had.
And I'm like ???? that's not even the best pizza in that city.

honestly that's my writing advice: don't take it too seriously
look at a meme or a joke, say "Oh ha that's just like my character"
think about what that says about them, can you build on that?
it goes even better with a friend
in a few minutes, them dumbest idea can become tragic backstory, intriguing plot point, a goal, a trait, anything!
know about your characters more than the serious moments, they need something more to have depth

US Politics (---)
I've started referring to the political climate in the US as a cold civil war.

@noelle so she's really depressed and she figures she'll order a pizza... or two... or three... and then the pizza delivery guy shows up, and the music starts up, right? And he helps step her through realizing that the incessant dread she feels is about future events which haven't happened yet, rooted in a condemnation of herself which she'd never apply to other people.

"I hear this confusion [about "CBT"] all the time, but I think you're the first to take it from the the angle of "Wait, there are cognitive behaviour therapy pornos?""
stories, tho.
I wonder if there's been any research done into folk epidemiology, i.e. how people believe a given illness has been transmitted.
I wonder how accurate "oh yeah I got that cold from alice" etc actually is.
