Rules for #GhostPit
1. While this is a Halloween event, all pitches are welcome, but if your pitch is Halloween related you can use the 👻 emoji to mark it as so.
2. Absolutely NO AI allowed! AI steals from creators and is bad for the environment. AI usage can be reported to any of our hosts...

🧵 I just want to clear up some misconceptions about what Social Security actually is and how it works.
You, as an individual, do not have an "account" with SSA where your FICA contributions have been saved for when you retire. It's not at all comparable to an investment account.

⭐I would give this book 0 stars if I could. Who comps Fancy Nancy with The Addams Family? I don't like the idea of scaring kids. My kid shouldn't know the Grim Reaper. Also, there are 2 many words with double meanings. Mary Halloween? That's just weird.

Important to remember.
This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Nerdist gets this one wrong. Brave New World finally addresses a lot of the Hulk movie’s abandoned story and has some interesting call backs to The Winter Soldier, I thought.
Captain America: Brave New World is a disjointed, poorly paced, poorly edited movie whose exciting action sequences can’t overcome some of the worst dialogue in MCU history.

Now, I’ll know where Spirit Halloween will pop up next year.
Party City announced that it was shutting all of its stores, a process that would last through February.

Maybe they should put a normal person in the press room for reference.

Virtually every question today at the WH Press briefing was about the Hunter pardon, as if that is the thing the American people care about most right now. The DC press is so disconnected from the American public and serves them poorly more often than not.
