I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

If you believe what happened to Alex Pretti was ANYTHING but outright murder you are so far gone in a cult of propaganda from whatever you watch/follow (cough, Fox) you’ve lost all sense of reality and what it means to actually be part of humanity.

RIP Rob Reiner, what an incredible talent that has given us so much. When Harry Met Sally, Misery, Stand By Me, A Few Good Men, the Princess Bride, such a part of all our childhoods.

For those filling out their Lefty ballots for Left Coast Crime ‘26, MILES IN TIME is eligible for Best Humorous Mystery Novel. Thanks so much if you vote and see you all in SF later this winter!

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is 30 years old and one of the best double albums of all time. “The world is a vampire. Sent to drain” 🎶

Uh Clay Higgins, the one GOP vote against releasing the Epstein files, history ain’t gonna remember you well.

My short story “Ghost Train” is published in @maudlinhouse.bsky.social today. This is a creepy one, enjoy!

Manifesting all BLUE tonight for NYC, NJ, VA, and yes to Prop 50. Also Cuomo getting trounced. Let this be the start of a tide turning with the supermoon tomorrow.

COVER ART REVEAL!! HAIL HOLY QUEENS by author Chris McGinley. Coming 2026 from Fringe Publishing 🐺 ❄️ 🪵 🌳 🩸 Berkshires, 19th century, nuns, wolves called gulos, in a haunting horror novel with shades of Tarantino We can’t wait for you to read!

My horror story “Interview” is published today @pipelineartists Think you’ve had a bad interview before, just wait… 😈 pipelineartists.com/interview-sh...

If you’re moving out of NYC because Mamdani wins, first of all, you actually won’t leave and you’re all talk, but if you do, shit is too crowded here anyway, so 👋 -From a lifelong New Yorker

The Louvre Heist is a breath of fresh air in this news cycle. More Oceans 11 news like that please.

The Trump AI video could not be more true. He has shat on America all these years 💩

Next Sunday, Noir at the Bar with a stacked list of readers. See ya there!

Tron Ares Nine Inch Nails Soundtrack - Kicks Ass! Tron Ares the movie - Just ass 😒

Happy No Kings Day today and everyday! ❌ 👑

I got the idea for my new novel the day David Lynch died. I truly believe he was such a force of good, creative energy, so when he passed that force of inspiration was there, and still is, for those who want to catch the fish like he did.

Didn’t we already vote you out, Cuomo?! Hahaha

Bill & Ted’s Excellent Beckett

If you have a problem with Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl halftime GET A FUCKING HOBBY and channel that hate into something worthwhile.

If you voted for Trump = You’re MAGA (Despite whatever excuse you tell yourself) If you didn’t vote at all to protest = You’re complicit (Despite whatever excuse you tell yourself too)

The vibe of the book I’m writing (at least the part I’m up to) is “Tonight, Tonight” by Smashing Pumpkins. And if I haven’t listened to the song 100 times today… ✍️ 🤯 🎃

Gutted by The Long Walk 🎥 and teared up, even though I’d read the Stephen King 📕

Loving the novel I’m writing but struggling with figuring out the end, until ZAP, like lightning the whole thing hit and I can see the final ⚡️ ⚡️

Black Rabbit on Netflix is a fantastic, gritty crime show in the vein of Uncut Gems and Ozark, beautifully shot, a little sprawling in the middle, but worth a knuckle-biting watch. 🐰

Se7en just turned 30! What’s in the box, Grandpa?

When Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Tucker Carlson all agree that the FCC was wrong in suspending Kimmel and, for once, being on the side of normalcy, you know the rapture has come.

Silencing Jimmy Kimmel was not an act of strength, it was one of weakness and desperation.

RIP Robert Redford, one of the greats Butch Cassidy/The Sting/President’s Men/Three Days of the Condor/Indecent Proposal/Sneakers, the list goes on…

Right wing media will try to spin Charlie Kirk’s death as some radical leftist takedown, but nope the shooter Tyler Robinson was a Utah Mormon from a Republican (likely MAGA or at least MAGA lite) family. So, maybe the answer is just that we need to have better gun reform.

Democrat James Walkinshaw will win the House seat in Virginia’s special election, narrowing the GOP’s majority. Celebrate the wins!

Bcon Nola done right

Until there is a press conference where Trump actually speaks some hot garbage, he’s gotta be hanging on by a thread.

Hit p. 200 in the new mystery/horror MS I started in June. This one is twisty AF and I’m in love. Everyday I can’t wait to get to write more ✍️

America, where everyday is a tragedy and nothing ever changes. It doesn’t have to be this way. Follow Canada, Japan, UK and Australia and other countries with stricter and sensible gun laws where days like today don’t happen on the regular.

Sometimes all I wanna do is lie in the grass, pop an edible, and listen to The Cranberries for nostalgia comfort like it’s ‘94. Highly recommend.

Finally more democrats like Pritzker, Hochul, Wes Moore, and Lisa Cook fighting back. All day every day do this until we outta this mess.

Still stoked about the Arabic translations of my sci-fi series Orange City and Lemon World released in Egypt. They’re just so purdy.

Cali Dems fighting back against TX redistricting. This is how you do it. Full throttle, hitting back at GOPs bullshit. Now go on offense with the next state (eyes NY)

Over on Salt Lake Dirt podcast talking Miles in Time

If Trump wants to sue Newsom for presidential harassement or whatever, that means IT’S WORKING, TACO BABY HANDS

Every democrat in office should be trolling just like Gavin Newsom is doing right now. Get in the mud and get dirty just like them. Fight fire with fire. It’s at least, something!

Reading tonight at Mary Os down in Alphabet City. Come on out!

After brain worm RFK Jr. gutted 500 million from mRNA research, isn’t there ONE decent billionaire out there that can step up and pay for what our government won’t? Also, for PBS/NPR too please 🙏
