Writer. Scripts, but before that journalism. Still stumbles across a story every now and then. Makes swords, fixes robots, likes cats. Even better in person.

It's weird to live in a time when some mad guy has worked out how to summon demons, and he says the demons can do jobs for cheaper!
But the demons don't do a good job at all, oh and as well as paying them, every time you want them to do a job you have to chop down a tree.

“Ok, we’ve just invented healthcare, what should the doctors wear?”
A long white dress

“Alright that’s settled, then, let’s put the patients in a long shirt with their bare ass sticking out”

Do you need to awaken joy in someone like activating the Winter Soldier? The words today are 'Guinea Pig Bridge Nagasaki'
Don't show them a video to explain it, let them discover it themselves. You'll know it works when they start humming the song.

Is anyone on here cool? Like are you recognised as being cool?
I have just discovered I might have been cool and I didn't realise? It's a lot.
Do you have any advice?

Male writer here. While being the primary carer* for two kids I have written and sold three screenplays. Writing with kids is a total nightmare and it wouldn't even be possible if @wheatles.bsky.social didn't have a proper career.

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

I'm trying on some new shoes today. It feels like I'm about to find out if I am an idiom.
I'll report back in a week and let you know my findings.

What is the longest unbroken line in the UK? I think painted lines on the inside of a motorway might be a good shout. Can anyone do better? It has to be human made.

What AI can't understand is there are times when you want to listen to Ghost town by the Specials because it's a ska classic, and there are times you want to listen to Ghost town by the Special because it's a good spooky tune for Halloween.

I have to accept - as much as it annoys me - that the tech bros have actually created a good metaphor for The One Ring with A.I.
Sure they say they can use The Ring/A.I. for good, but it destroys whoever uses it and it wrecks the environment.
Does this mean notable Clankers are ringwraiths?

Reframing is such a useful skull.
For example It's not an alarming rise in state surveillance on citizens, it's a new golden age for people inventing new language to avoid censorship!

I'm trying to become BFFs with the murder of crows that live on Brixton hill.
We are already pretty friendly, but today one of them shouted at me as it saw me cycling down the hill, so I went and got them an apple bake to share.
Reward the behaviour you want.

Is there an edit of Celebrity Traitors where they don't repeat everything three times? I'm having fun but every episode is 50% filler / drone shots / repeating what they have just said.
Or is this just the style of broadcast TV these days and I haven't noticed the shift?
