Huh, train the computer to do your job and put yourself out of work. Nah, i’ll take my services elsewhere, thanks.

You know, I’ve been playing a little with voice and I might not ever use it again, but it’s been a good exercise.

my wife and I went out last night and we split a real burger and a veggie burger and to be honest the veggie burger was better.

Well, today I write my final exam of the year. One year back in academia, and I've done pretty well. Also, its been a nice boost to have some regular input on my work, and what I can improve on, as well as some nice words about what I've written.

Dave's a good marketer. Buy his comics.

Love how heavy the sound of this album is.

So, here's how I'm plotting short stories. I recently listened to a podcast talking about screenwriting and they mentioned story beats--so I'm cribbing that and writing the story beats of a short and then writing the story around those beats. Mostly been pantsing them, but I like this way best.

Huh, I might have a short story book full of stories. Around 14. That's kind of cool.

This one is hotter than the hubs of hades and pitch as the darkest black.

what if i fucking kill you

The director of Pig. Sold. Robin Hood stealing from the rich and dying. Sold. I mean what more could you want from a film?

This person who wrote this movie watched this video for sure.

Me trying to be normal.

Just found a short story I wrote in a night and forgot about. That's nice. Time to edit it and try and find a home for it.

Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights is a difficult song to cover, but this metal band kills. My wife is obsessed, and now I am obsessed.

John Romita Jr. got in on the action!

Okay, another short story submission finished. I really like this one, I hope they do to. It feels along the lines of something I want to write going forward. A little weird, a little creepy, and a little uncomfortable.

I forget how much reading your work is essential to a story that flows properly. If you write, read your work.

Bought a pair of cool used boots, but the toe is kinda scuffed, so bought me some repair supplies and i’ll be sanding that toe and applying some filler to it. I might fuck it up, but I might make it look real nice. Either way, the boots still look cool.

Listening to CBC this morning and they’re still talking about alberta/bc pipelines. How about we build a refinery, and invest in green infrastructure. That’s the move forward. Pipeline talk is dumb.

Saw this the other night before The Mummy, and it looks insane. Deadites everywhere!

Bands i’ll happily listen to: The Strokes, Billy Eilish, The Boss. Any others who’ve spoken out against the American regime?

Inquiring minds must know!!!

Thrilled, honored, and so proud of @wired.com for winning the 2026 Hillman Prize for Magazine Journalism: "WIRED’s stories were not only groundbreaking; they were singular."

Gee I wish I were a ruinously extractive energy company so I could get my projects funded. Instead, the feds stopped funding individual green energy projects back in 2024, so fuck you if you want solar or geothermal I guess. Wanna kill the planet though? TAKE OUR MONEY!

Favourite male arrested youth vampire from the 80s, Laddie or Homer?

Hmm. Niche IP? A Triffids story. A Sutter Kane novel. Something set in the same universe as Archive 81.

Al Milgrom from a little before Silverstri.

Silvestri swiped it later on.

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

Also, feels important to mention these days that this indie film was made by humans.

I had a smart device in my house. Then I learned it was recording me and now I don't. Pretty simple decision.

One more short story submitted. One more chance at getting published this year. Large congratulatory pat on my own back. You are doing it. You are moving foward. The third finished short horror story this year (among all sorts of other things). Way to go me.

Despite threats from FBI Director Kash Patel, Atlantic reporter Sarah Fitzpatrick is not backing down one fucking bit. 🙌💪👇

Just going to put this here to remind myself to watch it.

It's been so interesting to watch this unfold. Barnes & Noble and other big book chains shut indies down in the the 1990s (and on) and then Amazon came along and ate up all the book market share. Now people tired of big corporations are creating demand for more indies

What a cool series of panels by Paul Smith.

Just going to put this here to remind myself to watch it.

Going to watch 1000 Women in Horror, because I love documentaries like this.

John Locke had some great ideas. Government should protect human rights, and if it doesn’t, there is a right of revolution.

Can’t see em real good, but there’s a million sea anemones in this here pool.

Happy Birthday, John.
