The other night I got to be a part of this very cool event for the Life After Cars book tour. Thank you to the authors Doug Gordon and Sarah Goodyear for inviting me! Everyone should buy their book and have their minds opened to the tyranny of car culture and the toll it takes on all of us.

1989's Balance could just as easily be the Chuck Schumer Cautionary Tale. Or "How To Lose Leverage, Voter Good Will, and Your Whole Caucus While Staying At The Top."

Cool to be included in this article on being car free in this business. I’ve been bike commuting with transit to writers rooms for twenty years now.
Hollywood Without Wheels: A Not-So-Pedestrian Guide to Getting Around Town
Some of Hollywood’s most resourceful commuters explain how they make meetings and get to writers’ rooms without a car: “The idea that we don’t have public transit here is a myth.”

A lot of rich people spent a lot of money to stop a mayor who would prioritize working people for once. But the most populous city in America wanted him anyway and won!

Just finished reading this incredible book about the hold car culture has on us, and how we can break free from it. Honored to be on this panel with the inspiring and visionary authors! @thewaroncars.bsky.social

Nikole Hannah-Jones put a spotlight on how much Trump and his puppeteers have been rolling back hard fought civil rights by conflating civil rights with DEI, and why this is really bad. Feels like we should all be paying close attention to this! From The Daily podcast.

Waking up to the president posting an AI video of him using a top gun jet to take a shit all over Americans exercising their constitutional rights is a great way to remind us all of what a piece of shit he is. Not that we needed it.

At the #NoKings rally for too many reasons to count. A big one is I believe in our democracy and the power of the people to stand up for it, even against the rich and powerful.

“We are an existential threat to billionaires who think their money can buy our democracy.” Zohran Mamdani’s election to the most populous city in the U.S. is weeks away, and will be the best thing that could ever happen to working people. Not only in New York, but the country.

Zohran Mamdani continues to be a ray of hope for me, and I don't even live in New York! Things seem a little less bleak and my soul a little less crushed every time I hear him speak.
Zohran Mamdani uses his appearance on Fox News to "speak directly to the president," since "he might be watching right now."
Mamdani looks straight into the Fox camera as he says this >>>

Wow #TronAres was amazing. As someone who’s written for the franchise and as someone who just loves movies I thought it was a transportive cinematic experience. Four discs! 🥏🥏🥏🥏

S4 won't come out for a while but a 4 min clip was just released at #NYCC and I am so excited for you all to see the rest of this ep AND the whole season that I may need to seal myself in an isolation chamber in order to remain 🤐. #StrangeNewWorlds

Totally unfair that the man who renamed our military arm the Department of War didn't win a Nobel Peace Prize.

Excited for #TronAres. If you want even more Tron check out the little seen Tron: Uprising on D+. Created by @adamhorowitzla.bsky.social, Eddy Kitsis, and Charlie Bean, who 15 years ago put together an astonishing team to make easily one of the coolest shows I’ve ever been lucky to work on.

Heading back to LA after producing an episode for season five. No spoilers here, just a work light randomly aimed at Pike's saddle that I thought looked cool. Bye Enterprise! #StrangeNewWorlds

As a writer, I strive to always relfect our world somehow, esp in fantasy and sci fi. In Kipo, I wrote about a fictional dystopian Los Angeles that LGBTQ+ kids are very much a part of, bc it reflects the real LA we based it on. LGBTQ+ kids exist. Trans kids exist. That shouldn't be controversial.
