Watching Die Hard - I think there should be more scenes in action movies where characters loot the people they kill.

It’s fucked up that billionaires have all that money and just buy websites and newspapers that are mean to them instead of ending homelessness or even making the top three most important bands from Athens GA (Neutral Milk Hotel, REM, The B-52s) reunite and cover each other’s music

Whoah, cool:

Is anyone using the drag name Carmen Monoxide? If not, dibs

still v happy for you, NYC

When I approved push notifications for my weather app, I was expecting being alerted of local blizzards, not fatal earthquakes, plane crashes, and lightning strikes across the globe…

It’s incredible that Excalibur (1981) came out AFTER Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975,) seeing as how much Holy Grail feels to directly be a parody of Excalibur.

My latest Patreon post is live. It's got some life updates, and for paid supporters, it has a snippet from my upcoming book, Ex Partum (coming soon from @atthisarts.com). www.patreon.com/posts/140919... #scifi #specfic #booksky

Fuck AI, what I really need for productivity is a waterproof laptop I can use in the shower. Seeing as that’s the only place I can manage to have an idea.

On the 86 board at work

Just finished reading “The Buffalo Hunter Hunter,” by @sgj.bsky.social Absolutely fantastic. Gripping, ceaseless, horrible, beautiful. Weaving together three distinct narrative voices until one of them inundates and triumphs over the others… brilliant storytelling.

Been getting walloped by grief lately. And not even the kind that inspires creativity. Just the kind that inspires opening another bottle of wine and sleeping in.

Your monthly reminder: Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

I’ve got a new position! It is called ‘fetal’ and I’ll be here for a while.

I am thinking of writing a very short flash opera about a worker bee whose troubles stem from not realizing how valuable she is to the hive. I will call it, “The Plight of the Humblebee.“

In 24 hours, our community has been able to cover Jason's insurance costs plus extra for groceries and other costs associated with being in the hospital for weeks without working. They still don't know how long they will be in the hospital. THANK YOU. The goal increased to $22k after raising $17k.

I know we don’t have a leg to stand on over here w/r/t rising tyranny, but I feel like y’all letting Chuckie Three ban ninja swords is pretty wack. Like isn’t there something in the Magna Carta about thine kynge not takinge ahweye the blades of Goode Stronge Menne?

you know that thing where you can describe 90% of the characteristics of socialism and you'll have the whole room agreeing with you, but if you actually drop the word "socialist" they turn into a bunch of angry red apes? you gotta hide the dog's pills in some cheese, man

sorry i didn’t reply to your message i saw you texted and half-knew what it was probably about but didn’t have all the details to respond yet and if I open it I’ll forget i opened it so i can’t open it yet please know that it is causing me: intense psychic agony

if i was in a club in Athens, Georgia in 1978 and I heard Rock Lobster live without any warning, I would immediately start committing political assassinations

me rn

the Star Tribune just called me and told me they would not be publishing the obituary I wrote for my father as it is “unfair to him” and “in poor taste” so here it is and fuck the strib ✌🏻

Hm? No, nothing’s wrong, I’m just thinking about how Aragorn gives a speech about how we may be flawed but all we have to do is decide that today is the day we fight together instead of forsaking each other, while Théoden’s speech is just screaming “DEATH! DEATH!” until everyone is suitably pumped.

On the off chance you needed a story about a person who is part espresso machine experiencing job insecurity, boy do I have a story for you @radonjournal.bsky.social www.radonjournal.com/issue4/press...
