How should you react if you wake to find a giant dragon crammed into your room, unable to stretch without sinking its talons into everything, unable to yawn without incinerating the entire building?

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

‪Sinister Minutes 22: Life Coach, plus Shake My Bones

A little feel-good, motivational advice never hurt so much.

If this short story is any indication of where my writing is headed in the near future, it's gonna be a long, snarky ride.

Sinister Minutes 20 is all about unboxing: Is "A Box of Hope" worth opening? Can you handle something "Delightfully Intense?" "Why is the Cellar Door Open," original music from Tim Parker, will leave you wondering that very thing.

Friendly reminder for this new year: if you want to draw you only need one thing: DRAW
It's okay if you don't have art studies, if you're bad at anatomy or color, if you draw on a napkin or if it looks “ugly” to you...
You don’t need to be “good” at something to have fun!
