i do not want the state to have the authority to kill people! not random mothers driving by! not people the state thinks look like they could commit crimes! not people who we think probably did commit crimes! not people who definitely, absolutely committed crimes! no one!!!

Morning. If you're waking up to a feed full of vague "wtf" it is because the US bombed Venezuela overnight and kidnapped its president That's where to start if you're catching up. Good luck

Propaganda you agree with is STILL propaganda. People in Canada DO go bankrupt from medical bills and illness related work loss, they just are more often tied to medication costs than hospital visits or procedure costs

With a knock on your door, a kindly wizard invites you to join us on Shelved By Genre's LORD OF THE YEAR, in which we will consider the popular but contested works of JRR Tolkien, kicking things off with a long rumination upon the first four chapters of THE HOBBIT: rangedtouch.com/2026/01/02/t...

I call this one “listening to audiobooks” Start audio book Listen until you get distracted Say aloud: “shit, what just happened?” Flip coin: heads :”fuck it, I’ll figure it out from context” Tails: “reverse in 30 second increments until you remember the story” Repeat until the audiobook is done.

Watching Wizard of Oz with my kids: “the munchkins eggs are big, whatever laid them must be huge” Of all the mid 2000s webcomics art I’m surprised I’ve never seen an Aliens of Oz mashup.

It’s a good book.

Finish book 1: aka write drafts until I feel like someone else can read it without me dying inside. Research and write a second book’s first draft.

Renata Price was correct when she dubbed it the year of Narrative Bangers.

In defiance of all the AI news I’m gonna spend some time writing my shitty book, powered by own mediocre brain and some very good screamo.

Listening to Octavia E Butler’s The Parable of the Sower and every 3 sentences it’s just her, in 1993, accurately describing the state of 2025. share.libbyapp.com/title/2902085

Amused at this @nicklutsko.bsky.social fans carousel from Apple. Refined tastes.

Dallas’s hard counts never work on 4th downs, why even bother?

Another Philip Rivers game

If Philip rivers wins tonight you know the Seahawks post game dressdown will be: “They built this QB in a cave with a box of scraps!”

My cable has Bills/Pats, Eagles/Raiders, Ravens/Bengals. I’m gonna watch the PGA/LPGA Grant Thornton Invitational instead.

This was the Lutsko song that sold me on his whole deal. music.apple.com/ca/album/per...

We can’t afford a $1M trailer slot 😔 But reposts on Bluesky cost $0 - and they really help tiny teams like ours ❤️ If cozy medieval creativity is your thing, here’s our Scriptorium trailer!

THERE HE IS

It would be very satisfying for my brain if the @noclipvideo.bsky.social Steam Curator page could hit 1,000 followers before the year's out. I promise we only recommend good games! store.steampowered.com/curator/2992...

you can be the most reasonable, intelligent, measured person on the planet and 3 minutes of a migraine will have you looking longingly at a drill and considering whether trepanning was honestly that bad of an idea

Working on a thought-tool called "stupid drunk guy in a bar". Works like this: If the take you're responding to is essentially being mumbled by a clearly very stupid drunk guy in the bar you're at, is it worth starting a big public discussion with him?

Today we've decided to center: - some genre author with fewer than 2k followers who said something insipid about an industry where he has no relevant experience or connection - a Cato Institute ghoul with the handle "normative" and a substack smugly saying we need to be more serious about eugenics

I’ve finished the first rough draft of a novel. And it’s real rough. At gun point I’d take the bullet before sharing it. But that was kind of the point: follow the ‘make it first, then make it good’ credo. Hoping to spend the upcoming holiday break editing/revising / etc.

Oh wait! Figured out how to get rid of the garbage Gemini button in Chrome: - Right-click - Unpin Gone!

Always excited for new Sparks. This one is an arrow into the nostalgia center for me. music.apple.com/ca/album/cha...

I'd like to share this old video of hers, where she talks about her time working on the 3DO port of Doom. it's a wild story that stuck with me, and a reminder that sometimes "bad games" have amazing people working on them

"I want more story based, linear, single player games with high production value and great voice acting" Ok. Here's one. And it's fantastic.

Some starry wolf sculptures! These will both be in my shop update this Friday, November 21st!

Winter is near 🦊 #sciart

Book is good. Exciting, fast paced tour of Smith’s life mostly focused before the breakout success of her first album and how that time of her life intertwined with Robert Mapplethorpe. share.libbyapp.com/title/602478

Just finished Gulliver’s Travels and… We had dudes making fun of Generative texts in the 1700s. Centuries of ridiculing these grifts.

I push the "add 30 seconds" button three times

MwM is a one of the first channels that I subscribed to. At a time when videos about film were predominantly scathing and cynical, Mikey made funny, well crafted, punchy essays that found joy to celebrate. youtu.be/Fh_eIReMeNw?...
