I can't decide if Bluesky is that old boot that fits just right, or if it's my methadone clinic for quitting Twitter cold turkey. I'll let you know.

Can any of you name a film that is more of a tonal mismatch with its trailer than The Holdovers? I cannot.

I'm not as worried about building up a Bluesky follower count as I am a *following count*. I feel like I've put together a reliable, credible, and level-headed news feed over at T-ville. Starting from scratch and doing that all over again is going to be a pain.

Tell me the truth. If you went to the liquor store to buy sherry, could you find it without asking for help ?

Meg 2 was such a mess I'm not sure if I could explain. I'm talking "emailed the wrong file to the distributor" level of mess.

Alright, why do I loathe the term "creatives?" As in, "Hey creatives, let us know what you're working on this weekend!"
It's never meant as an insult and there's no one out there I dislike who's ruined it for me. What gives?

Ok, so I went the way of the marmoset this morning. I'll be damn, I think it worked. Will confirm.
O! writers, I'm curious. When you've been revising a story 1,000 times & you find your eyes sliding across the words, is that when you call it done? Or do you put it aside for awhile? Do you soldier through and revise 250 more times? Unleash the marmosets and let them vandalize the plot? Some combo?

Wait, is this how the Hulk was created? If so, Marvel should have led with that.
If you trip on the way to the warp drive, does the anti-matter fall up or down?
A new experiment shows that it falls down. But wow, Geordi will be ticked at you.
