Bah, total fail on that buying tix to #HayleyWilliams concerts thing. Hopefully the scalper-mitigation measures will make some available for less than a $ bag, but not confident. Flashed back to when this #Paramore song kept me going for like 3 months of the peak pandemic.

New Substack! Inspired by the recent #NBA / #sportsbetting / poker scandal, 3 short excerpts from my unpublished novel, which is about sports / gambling / casino culture, while also being a fun trashy murder mystery / serial-killer thriller.

Here's a music video with lots of #cosplay candids for your #Halloween prepping, from #SDCC #Wondercon #NYCC etc, the song is called "Costume Party" from my group #12Valentines at bandcamp or on the streamers, it's sort of an ode to social anxiety at parties

"Hurdle Over Defenseless QB" should be a #NFL stat: a defensive player acrobatically jumps over a sliding QB, deftly saving his team from a roughness penalty. Only offense players get highlights for it but it's saved many a cheap TD, + amazing to watch a DB change momentum like that

You may notice that the more bonehead project2025ish reels you try to hide or report on FB, the more pop into your feed to take their place. Like Hydra! Hmmm.

Rest in peace, D'Angelo, Diane Keaton, Drew Struzan. But also, I went down a Roxette rabbithole yesterday. This is from their "reformation" tour this year. RIP Marie Fredriksson. You rocked. (Note that everyone in Australia knows the words to this song.)

Released a new edit of our (12 Valentines) song "Costume Party," a bouncey retropop tune about narcissism, #cosplay, and awkward love. #SDCC cosplay-focused music video soon to follow, including this tender tableau btw Rogue and MCU #CarolDanvers (Jessika). Songwriting by me, vocals by Victoria.

Nothing to make you value how relatively peaceful America is more than the President directing his TV host War Guy to commit war crimes against an American city mainly known for a sketch comedy show and roses.

Earlier this week, the Disney-owned broadcast network ABC abruptly pulled the late night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live from the airwaves after being pressured by the U.S. government. A few days prior, Dan Gilroy and the show Andor, another Disney-owned entity, was being awarded an Emmy for outstanding writing for this powerful speech delivered by Genevieve O'Reilly as Mon Mothma -- who was totally snubbed in the acting category, by the way -- warning of "the monster who will come for us all soon enough."

I gotta write a substack thing about #LamarJackson 's leadership voice, cf 1:34 "Let that go." After Likely's foot and Andrews' drop and all that. Of the 4-5 elite NFL QBs, Lamar's the only one I wanna hear speak after a win or a loss. Such a freaking hero. #BaltimoreRavens #DerrickHenry
