#author, shenaniganizer, martial artist. Generally good guy. Still woke. Still supports DEI. Curses a lot. No longer looks good even in black and white photos.

Sci-Fi meets Now
Desert
Dystopia
Destiny🚀
In the near future, two scientists make a breakthrough that will either free humanity or forever enslave it.
A breathtaking romp through pre-dystopian times.

The way news travels these days, the only way we'll know if Denver got nuked is if Fark goes down because CloudFlare no longer exists.

#Reality is a pretty ugly place, filled to the brim with ugly, mean-spirited assholes. That's why religious fantasy is so popular. It lets you think someone's on your side.

Once you realize you're living in a massive computer, you'll understand why I say #reality is hackable.

Current #goal: Get through the week without strangling someone. I think I can make this happen, especially if I can get some kind of award for it.

I used to have a #goal of becoming a bestselling author. Now I think I'll have to settle for selling a few books every now and then.

Should we replace "Hail To The Chief" with "It's Raining Men"?

Once upon a time, we found things like #science and understanding important. Now we've slid back into religious escapades and babbling idiots.

"Captain, if we re-energize they semi-poly hydrophonic couplers with quasimatter, we might be able to disrupt their paradaemon field!"

"*sighs* We're going to use #science to escape."
"Ah. Good. Make it so."

If you stop and think about it, the fact that the digital age is built on two #numbers is kind of mind-blowing.

Of all the #numbers, my favorite is 𝑖. I mean, π is cool and all, but 𝑖 flat out tells reality to suck it. 𝑖 is a rebel, a sunglasses and leather jacket wearing badass that doesn't give a damn about the rules.

Won't be long until the cult starts normalizing pedophilia while wearing diapers themselves.

Anyone who says vampires are a #myth has never sat through an 8-hour long soul-sucking meeting. It may not drain your blood, but your will to live hits the road.

Some people say the Queen of the Road is a #myth. I say as long as she's not a mytheth, I've got a chance.

She refused to use Imperial or Metric #measurements and insisted she was one Smoot tall and 2 cubits-1.4 cubits-2 cubits.
It was just one of her many delightful peccadillos.

The key to success is to #measure twice and cut once. Then realize the cut was slightly off because you got your tools from Harbor Freight and they were mislabeled and you break your saw trying to trim the wood so have to go get new tools.

#Literature should be consumed in hefty paper form in a chair in front of a fire while wearing a smoking jacket.
The fun books can be consumed anywhere, clothing optional.

Nothing I #write will ever be considered #literature. But how many truly literary works have alien sex and laser fights?
Checkmate, literature.
