I started a blog in 2005. Still working on the first entry.
Sleeping in the buff means I entered this new year like I entered this world: naked.

Slightly less gooey though.

I still don’t think it’s a Christmas movie though.

All the headlines about Trump’s Rob Reiner post should just be “demented old man desperate to be in the news”.

As if I needed another reason to think Iceland was cool.

Dan Levy will win an Oscar for portraying Luigi Mangione. Mark my word.

This is really happening. Tonight, my feature length directorial debut, Operation Roll Play, is going to play in a movie theater. Seeing this marquee suddenly made it feel real.

You don’t mess with the Zohran!

I can’t wait to finish editing my movie. Then I can get back to pretending to read Infinite Jest.

Ads on YouTube are driving me to madness. I had Premium, got too pricey. I want to believe in a world where I can just use Nebula exclusively.

I don’t think I’ve ever said this before, and I doubt I’ll ever say it again, but… I’m happy for Jimmy Kimmel.

The worst kinds of Wednesdays are the ones that feel like Fridays. Because then you’re in store for a really disappointing Thursday.

I love DaVinci Resolve, but it eats my laptop’s battery like the Sega Game Gear ate up AA batteries.

Tonight, I’m watching a Tim Burton film, starring Johnny Depp. You know the one I mean.

Been watching Robert Altman movies. For most of 3 Women, I kept wondering “why isn’t this just called 2 Women?”

I was trying to do some research in prep for Nolan's Odyssey next year, but this profile of Ulysses was just 700 pages about the sublime agony of being, the inherent fallibility of perception, and the tyranny of the British.

Also my epub seems to be corrupted, a lot of punctuation is missing.

Oh no! I have to burn my Clinton flags, t-shirts, caps and car decals. Oh, right, I DON’T have to do that because I’m not in a cult. Screw Bill Clinton.

Man, that was super.

Finally getting into see Superman!

That’s all I need to know that this movie will be amazing.

I’ve been asked this a lot lately, and after thinking it over, I’ll say this:

It IS hot enough for me out here.

I was trying to put into words what was bothering me so much about that. Sometimes it feels as if to just exist we have to hear and see so much shit that sucks a little life out of us all. Maybe I just need to get out and touch grass a bit more.
