Back to editing secret project number one and do me a favor, if you're in the Matt Damon camp circa 2023 and still calling people the f word, maybe rethink that. Your gay friends hear it and it tells them how you feel about them: namely that they don't matter to you and aren't safe with you.

Wrestling was, imo, the worst. decision. ever. for the channel. I honestly remember it just going off a steep cliff after they started actively recruiting that audience.

That kind of made me really wonder what a book of short stories on the artifacts Adam searched for and destroyed would be like.

Great piece! I enjoyed it a lot!

Hi! I'm Patrick, From North Carolina. What is the craziest thing you've seen out here in the Carolinas?

(I've been wondering this since the line in white trash warlock)

As a "Creech", I just wanted to say,

Not all Creech's!

"One does not simply walk into Mordor", as they say, but I am very interested in seeing how things evolve around 🐺 and his identity. Especially with your way of playing with motifs and expectations, and how you'll play with this one.

But, I mean, it IS Nicholas Cage, so there's that!

My mother's best friend, to this day, is still "Aunt {Persons Name}"

They're really grasping at straws here

SURE IT IS!

I have a daughter, He has a daughter....

I know it's a commentary on an internet rando you didn't even know existed while you were writing most of the book!

Holy crap, I didn't capitalize "The Collapsing Empire"...

I actually remember, some time ago, when the collapsing empire came about, there was a _surprisingly_ close book that also came out that many people considered an attempt to be a knock off.

It was before I knew of @scalzi.com , and actually was what put him on my radar.

I really feel like at this point they just keep him in a room only viewing what they want him to see. Like he has his own personal fox news channel, while they run the place.

How do we break through this status quo?
