Hey, Texas! Very, very important. Please spread the word!

Days after the killing of Renee Good, Stephen Miller and DHS began bragging that ICE agents have immunity from being held accountable. There's a bill sitting in Congress that would end that immunity - and Democrats could right now use their sudden leverage to force its passage. Pass it on.

Can we get this to dip into existential crisis and self banishment?

Feels like a good night to watch someone fuck up some Nazis.

Hey at @tomsuozzi.bsky.social this you?

I will be actively campaigning for anyone going up against @tomsuozzi.bsky.social and Laura Gillen. Shameful.

People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .

If you are feeling helpless there are remote ways to get support to families in Minneapolis.

good morning

Giant Hot Blob look alike contest coming to Washington Square Park, Spring 2026 www.popularmechanics.com/science/a698...

I was offered a new job this week that I will start in Jan, so I get to be funemployed over the holidays. Feeling pretty pretty good.

Listen to John. He is wise. Get some rest folks. It’s gonna be “a week”.

Everybody talks about wanting to change things and help and fix, but ultimately all you can do is fix yourself. And that's a lot. Because if you can fix yourself, it has a ripple effect. -- Rob Reiner

I know it seems to be the “in” thing to throw shade at @strangerthings.bsky.social these days but honestly I’m enjoying the hell out of the new season. Hope you all are too!

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Well now…Welcome to Derry goes pretty hard pretty quick.

Perfect

Every year I watch Sleepy Hollow and every watch I marvel at the aesthetics, the soundtrack, incredible cast. Sure the story is a bit convoluted but it’s one of Burton’s best.

Monster Squad is so underrated. Sure they play fast and loose with the mythology but there are some genuinely brilliant moments and still one of the best practical werewolves on film.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Today years old when I learned Woody Harrelson’s dad was a contract killer tied to the JFK assassination. 🤯

Pretty excited to see the final product I collaborated with @brandonwaites.bsky.social on. Looking forward to sharing more soon and hope @horrorigins.com has a terrific weekend!

Disney made this short during WWII and it was nominated for an Emmy and was inspo for Inside Out. (Thx to Disneyhistorychannel on Insty for posting.)

@leahfromsd.bsky.social Writing prompt… www.vice.com/en/article/m...

Ok, someone from Pittsburgh is writing for Strange New Worlds. Love it!

Last nights episode of Alien Earth was wild...

My local theatre, which is usually a ghost town, is slammed tonight with people waiting to see #Weapons. This is gonna be fun.

This one of the most harrowing, gut wrenching accounts from a flood survivor that will live with you for a long time. www.texasmonthly.com/news-politic...

Some mornings I wake up hoping someone is out there hunting his horcruxes.

Yo when are we going to get a prequel about the Native American vampire hunters in #Sinners?!

Ugh. So. I was caught in layoffs months ago and things are getting a bit desperate. If anyone is looking to hire a 15-year industry vet with a bunch of awards to do game design, narrative design, content design, or writing (games or other things!), please hit me up.

Pay attention to this…

I feel like this one is going to drill into a few raw nerves.

LA is Ghorman. If you know, you know this will end badly.

I’m worried about @theonion.com what will they do with spoils from this day. It must be daunting.

If you are wondering what inner circle of hell we are in today, Elmo joined LinkedIn in to search for a new job. 😩

Oh man… if you need 90 minutes of solid laughs checkout Conan’s acceptance of the Mark Twain Award on Netflix. I’m still crying from laughing. Fuck I needed that.

Public service announcement: Go see Sinners while it is in the theater. Better yet see it in IMAX if you can. It’s one of the most beautifully shot and scored horror films I’ve ever seen. Mesmerizing. Sexy. Spiritual.

Between this and the trailer for HIM I’m excited to get back out to the theaters.

This is brilliant.

This is written in such perfect NYT editorial writer language. Larry David you’ve still got it

Something I think a lot of people in power seem to underestimate is that they are triggering generations that grew up with heavy doses of pop culture stories embracing underdogs and anarchy. We may look like civilians but inside we’re rebels itching for our moment to topple empires.

Had a friend text his idea for a short film last night. It sparked an idea I had for something similar, so I shared. He liked it. A lot. We brainstormed more. For three hours. On text. Now it's a feature idea, and my thumbs are oddly sore today.
