Hi. I’m Eric. Writer of the medium formerly known as television. My current project is an audio drama for Audible (non-IP, based on an original idea of mine), set to be released sometime in the very near future. My next project after that is…who knows! Will linear time even continue exist anymore!?!

🚨Three Chinese astronauts couldn’t return to Earth after space junk hit their spacecraft. Scientists warn this could be just the first of more accidents caused by orbital debris.
The situation is concerning. “There are a lot of people up there,” one source told me.

I don’t understand why dating is so hard, all I’m looking for is a new best friend from scratch who I’m willing to die for that must get along with all my family and friends and have comparable ambition and identical values and wild sexual chemistry with me and no else forever

The ultimate irony? These AI grifters might not have a creative bone in their bodies, but they are VERY good at convincing richer people to give them money sight-unseen. They could be pretty good producers if they weren’t so hellbent on boiling away all the world’s fresh water
It’s tiresome at this point, but again, their entire pitch is “wouldn’t it be great if there were no such things as talent, craft, and skill,” and what that means is a bland, slop-filled world. www.businessinsider.com/marc-andrees...

Does porn still have the power to push new tech, or has it gone soft?
Porn has long had a reputation as technology’s king maker, pushing whichever tech it backs to success. But is that really the case?

I wish I was surprised that Deadline claims it asked questions that were actually asked by me and other journalists at this James Gunn press conference. No one from Deadline even *submitted questions* for it (and I know, because I moderated). This is just brazen and sad.

This is the worst possible, least journalistic, framing for this story. I don’t care what the actual content of the piece is, it’s not getting a click from me.
Tilly Norwood, an AI-generated avatar, is being compared by its creators to A-list human actors. SAG-AFTRA and others are pushing back.
