Threw the pumpkin into the compost -- and I swear the compost grunted

Jury selection today, the defense attorney asked me, "Screenwriter? Have I seen anything?" I listed some shows, and the defendant exclaimed, "Hannibal?! Goddamn, I love Hannibal!" The attorney hissed for him to be quiet, but I pointed to the guy,"Right on, thanks!"
Booted!

Man, insomnia. Just read that Marlene Dietrich would eat a sardine-and-onion sandwich on rye as her cure. The smell would knock me dead, too

I'd love a biopic about why, after winning 12 Grammies, Stevie Wonder said yes in 1978 to writing a double-album soundtrack to a documentary about plants.

Somebody counted the number of wikipedia articles that have been written about the element mercury vs Freddie Mercury. And I'm afraid it tallies at mercury (5112) and Freddie Mercury (4256)

Can you think of any scenario that would lead to "model cheaper than CG" today?? -- and then let's make it happen

Fascinated with the concept of a house spider. Do you choose the spider or does the spider choose you? Do you leave the door open a little extra to draw in juicy insects? Will I hurt its feelings if I name it Shelob -- or will that go to its head?

A different take on nuclear proliferation from the pov of the physicists who built the things in the 50s. Very Frankenstein's Monster

When I first got on bluesky, I made a crack about how nice it'll be for zombies to discover a plastic spoons-worth of microplastics already in our brains... and a guy dm'd me to explain it's not a literal spoon.

I still think about that guy. (And his brain.)

Turned in a big outline, and I can't stop thinking about how I spelled whoa "woah" -- and now I'm convinced the whole project teeters on this one typo

The guy who invented the Pringles can had his ashes interred... in a Pringles can. But lame Orville Redenbacher was buried in a regular coffin rather than a microwave popcorn bag

Is there a word for going room to room, looking for the black reflective surface of your missing cell phone? Because that's a daily activity for me

Am I doing movies wrong? Should I be losing my mind over the reveal of the Annabelle popcorn bucket?

Nothing is more edge-of-your-seat than cracking a barely opened pistachio with your nubby fingernails.

Ishiguro is at his very best when he's writing science fiction. Artificial insight, disposability and the certainty of revelation.

If Taika Waititi is still adapting, I trust the guy to make this into something truly special.
