we have to create a world where, when someone says “yeah I might stalk Bill Watterson,” the interviewer stops and goes “sorry, what the fuck did you just say”
this is the most "Get a Job, Stay Away From Her" I've ever felt

![What’s the title or IP that you have yet to land but want?
Calvin and Hobbes. I’ve been chasing that for years and years, and I just have gotten nowhere with [creator] Bill Watterson. I began writing letters to him over 20 years ago. He lives in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, and I was actually contemplating just going out there and just staying at a local Best Western and seeing if he ever shows up at the [local] bookstore. All he does is these wood carvings for poetry readings, and every now and then he goes to the bookstore and does signings.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bck7uabvjt4xu5uzn3exzhqj/bafkreihbf3oqirpgrhgcmd5ruwmeq6wi4bfhpzlgexh26yfjnb5g5i3a6q@jpeg)

Most of us did not choose to write or draw or design so that we could put products on the shelf. We chose to do it because it’s a set of skills we enjoy exercising, that give us fulfillment.
It’s like asking a pro pitcher to just let a machine pitch for them. Fuck off and give me the ball.

Primary them all and block anybody who comes with the “at this crucial juncture the most important thing is that we win.” if they believed that they wouldn’t do this and with friends like them nobody needs enemies
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

instead of reposting that horrible screenshot of that horrible man's post, consider sharing the incredible stories about what sweet, thoughtful man Rob Reiner was and flooding the feed with them
When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.
