The whole thing is quite poignant as it is completely different from how we live and the outlook and rules are different too, of course.

Substantiation
He was stunned when he opened his email and found substantiation he could use to prove his innocence even though it came from an unlikely source.
Problematic
I love that word too. Problematic. It doesn’t have the connotation of unsolvable, unfixable or unchangeable just complex, tricky, awkward, or controversial.
Contentious
When this word came up, there were several topics that came to mind. The current political landscape (worldwide but the US in particular) and let’s face it, the President of the USA has behaved contentiously and has managed to polarise the country in a way not seen in years.
Outlast
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/08/19/your-daily-word-prompt-outlast-august-19-2019/ I’ve chatted about architecture on occasion and my love of many types designs and structures. Norman Foster once said, “Quality is an attitude of the mind.” He preferred “simplicity” of design while Frank Lloyd Write’s architecture was “organic”. I was introduced to their differing styles years ago and every now and again I take […]

Destruction
The company was sliding downhill into inevitable destruction without an upgrade in operations, and without an infusion of cash, there was no stopping the downward spiral.
Obstinate
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/08/12/your-daily-word-prompt-obstinate-august-12-2019/ Loki, our beautiful black german shedder (haha) had to have elbow surgery 3 days ago. He came home the next day, groggy and out of it due to the surgery and meds. He’s doing fine. For the most part, he’s groggy as all get out, but he’s able to eat and drink with no […]
Memorialize
Everyone had words of praise honour and humour for Eric Summers. He was an easy man to memorialize. His integrity stood the test of time. He showed respect consideration affection and gratitude to all around him.
Acquisitive
I’ve witnessed covetous greedy possessive behaviour but really, this took the cake.
Scribble
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/18/your-daily-word-prompt-scribble-july-18-2019/ Jean comforted herself in knowing that some of the greatest minds in the world would scribble notes on whatever was handy. Song writers were said to use napkins at a restaurant, even toilet paper while sitting in the john. It wasn’t as though she were forgetful or had a short memory, her mind was […]
Saga
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/16/your-daily-word-prompt-saga-july-16-2019/ Every time she considered reading a saga her first and only thought was why? Why the interest, why care? Sagas were boring, concerned a lifetime and lifestyle of people she’d never known and wasn’t the least bit interested in and she was even less interested in investing time and effort in reading absorbing or […]
Project
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/13/your-daily-word-prompt-project-july-13-2019/ Alex loved challenges, hell he lived for challenges. The new project that landed on his desk proposed to be a challenge on several fronts and he was eager to dig in and get started. Although his boss never set outlandish time limits on anyone, Alex usually set his own and always always reached his […]
