Hey, sci-fi concept artists! @searsandrew.bsky.social, @dyc3r.bsky.social, and I are looking for illustrators who want to work on brining our growing scifi IP @stellarempire.bsky.social to life! #scifi #conceptartists cc @conceptartworld.bsky.social

Welcome to Stellar Empire, a vast and growing sci-fi universe filled with interesting species, technologies, and struggles between different powers all vying to be the Stellar Empire. #SCIENCEFICTION #SCIFI

BORN OF ASH AND IRON—Chapter 10 from @searsandrew.bsky.social Read it TODAY! stellarempire.substack.com/p/born-of-as...

Just saw #Superman. In my (un)professional opinion, @jamesgunn.bsky.social freaking nailed it.

Settle a debate for me. Are #bonelesswings finger food? And if you say no, you must explain to me why a boneless wing is different than a chicken nugget.

Given that the DCU Batman needs to somehow differentiate itself from The Batman, what are the odds they pull something crazy like bring @ssnyder1835.bsky.social's Absolute Batman to the big screen for their take on the caped crusader?

RED ALERT, ALL HANDS TO BATTLE STATIONS. 🚨🚀 "Born of Ash and Iron" Chapter 5 is here, written by @searsandrew.bsky.social stellarempire.substack.com/p/born-of-as... #scifi #stellarempire

This is what happens when you let me do the world building. Sometimes I pitch an idea to the crew, and their immediate reaction is: "Who hurt you?!"

Chapter Three of "Born of Ash and Iron" has arrived. Join Volm as he navigates growing tensions, new faces, and witness capital politics in the midst of WAR. https://stellarempire.substack.com/p/born-of-ash-and-iron-chapter-3

BORN of ASH and IRON — Chapter 2 has arrived! Our story continues with Admiral Fisker, who is in hot pursuit of Captain Volm's struggling fleet. Supplies are dwindling. What will Volm do? Read Now: https://stellarempire.substack.com/p/born-of-ash-and-iron-chapter-2 #SciFi #StellarEmpire

The Declanians in Stellar Empire have a sort of "traditional science-fiction" vibe about them. Which I love. It looks like something you'd see in old Twilight Zone reruns.

I highly encourage anyone who loves #ScienceFiction to give Stellar Empire a chance. This is a massive sci-fi universe that @jamr-media.bsky.social is building, and we are really excited to start sharing it more openly. Go check it out, and then tell everyone you know to do the same!

#LeoXIV neither opened nor closed his first address with "We're on a mission from God," and I worry he'll never recover from that missed opportunity. Shame, really.

Pope Leo XIV is the first American Pope, and born in Chicago! Does this mean #DeepDishEucharist?

@themaskedsingerusa.bsky.social I'm getting irrationally mad that the panel hasn't figured out that Boogie Woogie is Andy Grammer. Even if the voice alone wasn't enough to give it away, that "English 101" book a few weeks back seals it. (Tell me the show is rigged without telling me 🤣)

World building is realizing that an entire kingdom has no depth and exists solely to be antagonistic to your main character's hometown. That, and putting new chapters on pause because the "bad guys" need champions too.

Do you guys think the Mouse paid Pizza Hut for that kind of prime product placement? #MouseEars

Contrary to popular belief, the first step to writing a good fantasy novel is not to put it off for years. The first step is to #DrawAMap!

Still writing. Here's a quick peek at some backstory about the human kingdom of Thoranee. Because I am going to #WriteThatNovel

Made some cajun salmon cakes for dinner (with a citrus paprika aioli)

It's not the year I finish the damn thing, but it is the year I start. For real this time. #WritingForReal

Decided to take another stab at writing the fantasy novel that's been on the back burner for far too long. Starting small with a target of 100-200 words a day, and the hope that I'll be able to pump up those numbers and finish the damn thing once I get rolling.

The best way to spread #ChristmasCheer is listening to the Rebooted crew talk about the #Grinch (and don't forget to follow @jamr-media.bsky.social!)

It's Christmas Eve, and as such, I am obligated to share this gem. No, it's not an Elf clip...this time.

I finally saw #Wicked. Sorry. What I think you heard was "I finally saw the movie." What I actually said is "I finally saw Wicked." Even knowing next to nothing about the musical except that one song and "Wizard of Oz prequel", it was a fantastic movie. I cannot wait for part 2.

What? Cheeseburger salad? Yes, please!

Made some pork flatbreads for dinner. They don't look quite as pretty as the home chef recipe card, but they tasted pretty good!

Oh. Cool. Chi-Chis is coming back? My parents used to take me there for my birthd....wait.

My kids ask for a movie night every week. Popcorn, kiddie cocktails, and a movie on the couch. Great fun. Except the little jerks veto Iron Man every damn time. There are 34 #MCU movies ahead of them, and they'd rather watch the Mighty Pups movie. Again. They're never gonna catch up at this rate...

This might be a hot take, but I think the Macy's parade is wildly overrated and nowhere near as exciting as the commentators want you to believe it is. (Tell me you're a curmudgeon without telling me)
