Not like I have anything against lesbian porn but ffs it doesn't even make semantic sense.

Context: In 1998, the Saudi crown prince Abdullah visited the UK, the Queen offered him a tour of their Scottish estate in a car. Expecting some attendant to do the driving, the prince was shocked when Queen Elizabeth herself got into the drivers seat and drove off.

This was shocking for the prince because at the time it was illegal for women to drive in Saudi Arabia and here the monarch of the UK herself was doing so just to taunt him.

Queen Elizabeth herself used to be a driver and mechanic during World War 2 and as such was quite qualified to drive by herself.

Ratnik Tactical, the Russian military equipment maker, said on Telegram: “The best warriors of humanity applied scrolls with prayers and promises to their armour before the battle.

“We really liked this image, and we decided that Russian soldiers are rightfully the best warriors of humanity, and can also wear such scrolls into battle. Thousands of seals have already gone to the front, and gave hope to soldiers in the darkest hour.”

I have been trying to get into writing short stories as a hobby. I have a couple of good ideas. But I tend to struggle when actually putting my thoughts to words.

Some issues I struggle with are as follows:

• Inability to settle on the right words: I'll write something and think that what I wrote could be written better or differently and then I keep on writing and deleting and rephrasing with different words. Thus making very slow progress.

• Problems with continuity: I might think up a somewhat long plot line. But I have to write the whole thing in one go because if I don't then my brain will splinter the story into multiple possible story branches when I stop and I am unable to choose the path to follow.

• Lose interest in continuing if I take a break: If I stop writing mid way and take a break from writing for an extended period of time, I am unable to find the motivation to resume. Mostly because trying to catchup with the story up to that point feels hard. I have this same tendency with video games as well where I don't feel like picking up a game after an extended period of absence.

So is anyone here who does writing as either a hobby or professionally? If so how do you cope with your condition?

What I've found that works for me is to just make up the story as I go without much planning. The issue with this is approach I've found is that it's hard to find a conclusion to end the story.

Not sure whether this is a good or bad thing, I am just reporting this as is.

Context: Compared to other Greek states, Sparta had a different inheritance law: Upon a man's death, all of his wealth passed on to his wife, not his eldest son. Since men constantly died in wars, this resulted in Spartan women inheriting a tremendous amount of wealth and estate. They could then remarry and stand to gain more.

As such, despite not having any voting rights or representation in Spartan politics, they could still indirectly influence state policy by bribing politicians with their wealth to bend it in their favour.
