Part of writing is the struggle & the joy. I fixed an issue in my WIP today and literally got chills. The creation is the adventure. Good luck getting that from some AI slop machine.

Very behind on all the things BUT I finally watched Sinners & I hope it wins every award possible. All I want in movies anymore is for talented people to get to take big, wild swings and knock them out of the park. More, please. (Also, Michael B. Jordan is a DREAMBOAT & should win the Oscar twice.)

Dumb fuckers don’t even know about Dinty Moore beef stew?
some good news buried among the horrible behavior listed:
“The third woman said federal agents at her hotel are subsisting on microwavable bowls of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, because it’s become so difficult for them to find restaurants willing to serve them.”

I visited hotels all over Minneapolis, went into back rooms & talked to the staff.
They're afraid.
One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.”
