there are actually no rules in writing, just common wisdom that you break on purpose for an impact on the audience I really love a well-placed flashback

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

I helped run like six and a half hours of brainstorming and development sessions today in an office (!) and didn’t perish

moral arc backwards gyre widening what do? amplified sound rules for falconers rough beast posture correction how?

writing truly himbo bullshit for soren is one of the things i miss most about working on TDP haha. i think iain and i peaked with the smort longpocket run

I hear my father screaming real loud downstairs which means something happened in the football game

my burnt up switch had my ACNH island on it so I guess I’m starting over 😭 (it doesn’t appear to use the regular cloud save)

if capitalism will not punish zuck then we should all at least be able to forcefully send him to stupid bitch jail

Top of the charts at my house today

I would make really normal and widely appealing things I promise. I swear

The indie Filipino short film "The Lovers" (Studio Heartbreak) is now complete, and will be released this summer on Youtube. In the meantime, here's a nice official poster illustrated by Ami Thompson. www.studioheartbreak.com www.catsuka.com/news/2023-05...

This is why you can't afford RAM anymore

lord i see what you have done for others, etc. (my kid turns 3 in october)

we all clown on this game for the Shaun glitch etc but my actual favorite comedy in Heavy Rain is how you can kill yourself as the detective by using the VR Crime Headset for too long

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

the democrats are right we should focus on kitchen table issues. for example there is a guy at my kitchen table who wants to shoot me in the face with a gun

Beautiful exchange with a friend.

At some point his fel can get sculpted to look mostly like a face, but still has his cursed emoji energy when he needs it. [Sept 2022]

Dal lost his face in his demon hunter ritual, and fought hard to prove his place among them. With the Legion gone, he starts taking his search more seriously. [Sept 2022]

On his quest to get a new face, my demon hunter Dal'adyn has sought the skills of @devongiehl.bsky.social's warlock, Kestryl. It's totally going to plan. [Sept 2022]

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

You have GOT to remove this fucking app from your life. I am serious. Delete all your posts and get the hell off of X right now, or be branded as a fascist supporting bigot. It's done. Get off.

that feeling where you finally get someone to care about an obscure song you've been obsessed with for like 10+ years

here's that video

come work with me... even more directly!?

Literally the first news outlet I've seen directly quoting her wife. Even the NPR piece on Renee Good that aired this morning made no mention of Becca Good whatsoever.

Imagined victimhood is a foundational tenet of fascism. Persecution fantasies permeate conservative politics. Their great oppressors include racial diversity, science, drag brunch, children's literature, public education, N-95 masks, electric cars, medicine, the rule of law, empathy, and Ms. Rachel.

she twines her spines up slowly towaaaaards the boilin' sun and when i touched her skin my fingers ran with bluuuuhhhhd 🎵

someone mentioned a relay race / baton pass metaphor today and so my brain has immediately been dragged into a devilman crybaby spiral. goddamn this shit still fucks me up so bad y'all

this is kinda selfish but it's tough how much of the "one year after the LA fires" coverage is entirely for people who have not been living through the aftermath every day. it's for everyone else who probably forgot. to me it feels kinda invasive / triggering / misery porn-y. i remember fine, thx

well at least fresh new awfulness is a distraction from the one-year fire anniversary, i guess

Lots of the obvious ones for me — Succession, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, TNG, etc. But also Black Sails, Six Feet Under, and the “Book of Love” ending to Scrubs.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

This one took up all my time between January and April. My friends @devongiehl.bsky.social and @iainhendry.bsky.social lost their home in the LA fires, so I knitted them a blanket to replace the one I made for them in 2023. 'Flying Foxtail' pattern, yarns are Tandem in Kardemumma and Birch Tree.

You’ll survive, but you’ll be funnier in a way that worries people

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

We had a good run

work with me?!

first of all lmao and second of all I’m old enough to have heard this before

oh cool stuff to wake up to, only took 3 days this year instead of 7

i only just found out that bigtop burger is over, what am i gonna do without cesare in my life

For the most part I try to make what other folks are doing not my business. Twitter was enabling some pretty horrifying shit for a long time, but putting a "take this child actress's dress off" button on there is a level of "what the fuck are you doing on this site" that is hard to grapple with.

ah god dammit

2025 tried to kill me and I know several ways 2026 will also try to kill me but at least I can anticipate some of the attacks this time

another day volunteering at the artificial mouth research lab. everyone keeps asking me
