This is the ultimate cost of letting Business Idiots control the media - you orient everything away from the actual product (writing stuff people want) toward making stuff that ranks high, that "goes viral," that "is optimized for social." And it either never works or only does so temporarily

Jon Stewart is a legend & the way this show is trying to explain to a mainstream audience the gravity what is happening in the US is amazing. It was both thrilling & terrifying to be part of it. Thank you @TheDailyShow 👏

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS.

Please read and share this thread.

The Solo Leveling Season 2 theme song Reawaker could have its lyrics changed to Sha-banana-ba-na-na-na-na-na... and it'd still be a banger.

Damn that Hiroyuki Sawano. He's so good.

I'm not even kidding. Try replacing the chorus.

I finally figured out what Avowed reminds me of, and it's not Skyrim.

It's Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven. Like a single-player action adventure RPG in the spirit of that kind of world-spanning adventure.

It's a good nostalgic feeling.

Trump is a murderer and should be rotting in prison for his many crimes RIGHT NOW, but instead he's refusing to take the responsibility that he sought. Blaming women and black people for his own actions causing mass death is absolutely reprehensible.
