Looking for a story..

about a school for magic. The twists are:
- the school is specifically for evil villains and magicians
- the teenaged protagonist has no magic and no wish to be a villain, and is sure he will die quickly at the school, but is parents are proud of their lineage of alumni, and make him go.

I just discovered that Erin Halfelvin is a guest artist in one of my favorite web comics I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle. For those of you that haven't read Erin's comic or the Jeanie Bottle comic I recommend checking out both.

So we are just getting the horrific details about another school shooting, this one in an elementary school in Ulvade, Texas.

So far, 14 elementary students and 1 teacher are confirmed dead, but the suggestion is that count may increase.

The shooter, an 18 yr old high school student that attended Ulvade High School is also dead, apparently shot by law enforcement.

First, just to shut some people up, THIS is why we have police.

Recapcha

So, I use the Brave browser when I only want to check for what's new on BC in a quicker fashion (there is a lot higher lag when one is logged in unfortunately) which seems to do a pretty good job of blocking tracking by websites.

Now I am getting this whole recapcha thing which I dislike since I am providing a free service to google to train their AI in image recognition. It also defeats the purpose of my desire to check quickly.

Is BC being that inundated with bots that this is really necessary?

Happy 4 any help

Be Comfortable With Who and What You Are

Author: 

Walmart for milk before I headed to OKC. It's a long drive, I need my milk and Excedrin. Know most of the staff. I received several compliments and hugs. J.... was an obnoxious ass but that's J...., I've known him for more than twelve years. He asked where I got the skirt and if I had been dumpster diving. It is what a lot of the girls run into in their own lives. Let it go and don't get caught up in their bigotry. The world has those people and no matter what we do they will never accept us.

Several Hours

I was reminded of this story after reading another 'Looking for a Story' post, in which the MC may be over weight, and I think Leslie Moore's "Copy. Cure." may have been the front runner

I just spent the last several hours reading and re-reading the list of author names but I just cant get Desiree and her story "The Bronze Maiden" out of my mind

Different? Cloudfare problem

I have been struck. Fortunately on one (only) of my laptops, and fortunately the desktop I am using is OK.
I use Chrome for BCTS on all my 3 computers, and the older laptop is now popping up an unhelpful screen saying I've been blocked. This happens when I try to refresh any of the BCTS tabs in any of the Chrome windows, with the unhelpful message advising me to email the site owner (you) quoting an error code which is 7036fa088ae57549.

Cloudflare DDoS routing has broken the @Voice Aloud Reader on my Android Tablet Again

The Cloudflare page that BCTS is being routed through has broken my @Voice Aloud Reader (text to speech) on my Samsung Android tablet again. I can route to and read the stories on BCTS using my eyes just fine, but when I select a story to be read with @Voice Aloud Reader, the text from the Cloudflare page is what gets sent to the @Voice Aloud Reader app. I've tried clearing the history in the browser I'm using (Chrome) with no change/improvement.

Gender data from Census Canada

Author: 

Canada carries out a census every 10 years. In the last census, in 2021, they asked questions about 'gender' covering both transgender and non-binary people. The data has now been compiled and released.

Looking for another Story

I was reminded of this story after reading another 'Looking for a Story' post, in which the MC may be over weight, and I think Leslie Moore's "Copy. Cure." may have been the front runner

Here is what I remember

I think the story is incomplete!

Set in future
May be Dystopian earth? (BladeRunner overtones)

MC is an (overweight?) hacker, (Female Persona Online?)

Need help setting up and organizational page

I'm finally going to post all the Petticoat Detective stories by Andrea and Daphne and it occurs to me that they really should be read in order. So they should be set up on their own organizational page. I've seen plenty of these other authors have on their story page, but I've not even a clue as to how to set one up.

Can anyone out there walk me through the process?

Writers Research - comments turned off?

Is the lack of comments intentional or accidental?

Anyhoo, its an interesting start to what could become quite a saga. Method writing isn't a new thing, i do it myself, its rare that i ask my characters to do anything i haven't experienced myself, (i said rare, not never!) but to use it as the story plot may be a new one!

10 points to Hufflepuffs!

Looking for a story

The name of the story is "In Plain Sight" Not the one by Tanya Allen on Kindle. I don't know the author or have any idea of where it was posted.

The story is about an Army Ranger team who served in Afghanistan. Sniper and spotter. They were in DC to receive a Medal of Honor and while out on the town, witnessed a drive by shooting of a powerful drug lord. They were able to ID the perps and the drug cartel has a contract out on them plus the Taliban has issued a Jihad on them, so they are going into the Federal Witness Protection Program.

My crappy memory won't remember the name, but I recently read a story here about a brain transplant patient who was accepted into her new (female) host body's family, who owned a solar technology company? Anyway, she dated/married a local boy who went to university and invented a new solar panel for them that also generated electricity at night (and cloudy days?) by generating electricity from temperature changes.

Today I read this article that reminded me of that story.

Career Day -- review

While the site was down, I reread Grover's "Career Day". (I had downloaded it on my hard drive; an old habit from my dial-up days). I found it a fine piece of Sci-Fi/Fantasy. Usually I don't like Sci-Fi/Fantasy because it takes the decision regarding gender away from the protagonist.

Grover, however starts with an older trans person who through some unknown quirk of time/space finds himself in an alternate past and is given a second chance and doesn't waste it.

If you've never read it, or even if you have, give it a read. It well worth the time.
