I think I'm getting better at dissociating from current events.

I can't imagine writing for TV or video games in the age of unending culture wars. You spend years writing something, and here come the culture war tourist and their gaggle of weirdos who haven't touched a book since high-school to "analyze" the writing.

Declaring the ERA ratified would be a clever way of protecting birthright citizenship from unilateral executive action if the right-wing played fair or consistently.

I'm tired of people wanting government run like business. I want it run like horseshoe crabs. Business fale all the time. Horseshoe crabs stiffarm mass extensions, and they don't even have arms.

I just want to live in a world where politicians receive a fraction of the scrutiny "gamers" direct towards game devs.

My favorite part of this job is hearing people figure out in real time that clinging to the windshield of the boyfriend's moving vehicle like a face hugger from Alien to keep them from breaking up might have been an unhinged thing to do.

His ability to worry when everything is fine is pretty relatable.

HEMA is weird because it's one part DND, one part research and linguistics, and one part creatine.
