We'd like to lock in the issue by Christmas and have plenty of time in January for editing

Watching Die Hard - I think there should be more scenes in action movies where characters loot the people they kill.

It’s fucked up that billionaires have all that money and just buy websites and newspapers that are mean to them instead of ending homelessness or even making the top three most important bands from

When I approved push notifications for my weather app, I was expecting being alerted of local blizzards, not fatal earthquakes, plane crashes, and lightning strikes across the globe…

It’s incredible that Excalibur (1981) came out AFTER Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975,) seeing as how much Holy Grail feels to directly be a parody of Excalibur.

Fuck AI, what I really need for productivity is a waterproof laptop I can use in the shower. Seeing as that’s the only place I can manage to have an idea.

Just finished reading “The Buffalo Hunter Hunter,” by @sgj.bsky.social

Absolutely fantastic. Gripping, ceaseless, horrible, beautiful.

Weaving together three distinct narrative voices until one of them inundates and triumphs over the others… brilliant storytelling.

Been getting walloped by grief lately. And not even the kind that inspires creativity. Just the kind that inspires opening another bottle of wine and sleeping in.

Your monthly reminder:

Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

I am thinking of writing a very short flash opera about a worker bee whose troubles stem from not realizing how valuable she is to the hive. I will call it, “The Plight of the Humblebee.“

In 24 hours, our community has been able to cover Jason's insurance costs plus extra for groceries and other costs associated with being in the hospital for weeks without working. They still don't know how long they will be in the hospital. THANK YOU.
The goal increased to $22k after raising $17k.
*takes off reporter hat*

My good friend Jason Garcia @jasoncomix.bsky.social has been in the hospital since Sept. 2. They asked me to help set up a GoFundMe to assist in their hospitalization and after-care costs. Here it is:
