I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

We are aware of reports of a shooting involving federal law enforcement in North Minneapolis. We are working to confirm additional details.

Dear legislator: I am not remotely interested in your personal "take" on what the Trump administration did in Venezuela. I would much prefer it if you initiated some kind of action and then told us about it.

taking a break from cleaning out a basement to make a dunkin frozen coffee dupe and to edit some horrifically self indulgent fanfiction.

Also re-upping this interview about Murderbot and real, or the lack of real, AI, one of my favorites of the year:

Stoned listening to smoke detectors to try and find the one thats chirping. Bag of veggie snacks. Truly enjoying the enrichment in my enclosure.

one of my favourite things about The Murderbot Diaries books is how Murderbot is an unreliable narrator. It insists over and over it 'carefully composed its face into the default SecUnit Neutral expression' but judging by the reactions of bystanders it, uh, did not. .doodle.

Fine, whatever, this random cat is your new god of the winter solstice
