I wonder how many of Trump's family & friends bought defense-related stock before he announced that he wanted to raise the military budget by half a billion?

Are business cards still a thing? Are they old fashioned? If I handed some young exec or agent a business card would he look at me like I just gave him a cuneiform tablet? #writing #authorsky #scriptsky

Stephen Miller reminds me of guys you meet in college history or pol. sci. classes who derived their political thought exclusively from years of wargaming or Tom Clancy books.

My goal for the holidays was to write 20 pages on a new script before I returned to work 1/5. Up thru 1/2 I had 0 pages. As of yesterday I have 19. Are they good? No clue. But there they are. #scriptsky #author

The end of the year is coming fast and the agents I queried still have time to grab that manuscript I sent out. Don't make me self publish. I'll do it! I swear I will! #writing #authorsky

The 3rd Knives Out movie was entertaining, like the others. I thought the Blanc character, as written, was completely superfluous. It would've worked great with just the young priest carrying the story. Of course Netflix doesn't hand over the $ that way. #movies #scriptsky

C'mon MAGA voters. Trump's "warrior dividend" is just money skimmed from a pre-existing housing fund so he can put his name on it. Imagine your boss cutting part of your salary and giving it to you as a Christmas bonus. No matter how much you like his racism, you can't still support this chump.

Ok @warnerbrospictures.bsky.social, you need a big hit to impress the new bosses. Let me offer you my religious procedural where Jesus travels the country with a bear solving crimes and mauling people. Please DM with offer. You're welcome! #movies #writing

We are going to kill Venezuelans and Americans so Trump can claim that criticism of the president (e.g. Epstein report) in time of war is not allowed. And also on the pipe dream of installing a pro-American regime in Caracas that will give us oil and give Trump money.

Avatar! The greatest franchise nobody talks about. Are there Avatar toys? Avatar t-shirts? Avatar video games? Avatar toxic fan arguments online? Avatar quotes? Avatar characters that kids play in the backyard? Maybe I'm out of the Avatar loop.

I think Trump made his post about the Reiners' murder before the couple's son was arrested. Trump assumed one of his supporters did it so he was excusing and celebrating that fact, as well as inferring there will be more of the same.

Just a reminder that the studio that gave us Casablanca and Bugs Bunny is now just a wallet for no-talent operators.
Warner execs realize the only thing they want to make is quick cash so they can walk away into the sunset. If you flayed the entire directorship group, you wouldn't find a creative bone. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

I'm co-writing a script with my wife; our first co-project in years. We published 9 novels together & many comics. Now I want to write screenplays with her. It should work great because one of us is a good writer and one of us owns screenwriting software. #scriptsky #writer

Trump is a pedophile.
MAGA: Yeah, that feels bad.
Prices are rising.
MAGA: Hm. I am spending more now.

MAGA: Dang. I voted against more wars.
Somalis are garbage.

Remember when Trump tore down like half the White House? No approval. No plan. Just tore it down like it was a shed in his back yard. That really happened.

Trump says he's taken 3 cognitive exams. I got news for you, cognitive exams are not a standard part of a physical. My dad showed signs of dementia so he got cognitive exams. I'm 65 and went for a physical last year; I didn't get a cognitive exam. They don't give them unless there's a reason.

I promised myself if my manuscript didn't score an agent by the end of the year, I'd start the self-publishing process. I like trad publishing, but when you gotta change, you gotta change. #authorsky #writing
