I reject the idea that I'm just a theater kid. I was actually a "running the sound booth for Poetry Club readings" kid.
Am I watching a scientific disembark from a space capsule or a professional movie shoot of a disembark from a space capsule?

Is it just me? Or is anyone else watching the Blue Origin right now, wondering g how much it cost for a 2 minute trip, and whether that money could have been better spent improving lives here instead of shooting celebrities to the edge of space for 30 seconds?

Watching the Blue Origin rocket booster return to earth continually impresses me. Go Engineering!

A Blue Origin flight isn't "Space Tourism." It's a $400,000, 11-minute thrill ride.

Snide remarks about the incredibly offensive privilege of rich, famous people going to space for no reason at all = acceptable.

Misogynistic remarks about women drivers on a rocket mission = unacceptable and ignorant.

Okay, I need to know. How in the hell do you make yourself write? How do you make the right choice at the fork in the road that leads to either YouTube and video games or words on the page?

Just had my family Thanksgiving, complete with ridiculous political conversation. I left them in their echo chamber though and enjoyed the food at the (mostly) Democrat Table. It can be done.

Wow, Vince must be a truly abhorrent person if her first act after being named to DONALD TRUMP'S CABINET is to fully publicize that she is not with that dude anymore. www.fightful.com/wrestling/li...

ABBA, I don’t need you to tell me I can dance and I can jive. I’ll tell YOU if I’m having the time of my life.

Yes, I see that girl and I am indeed watching that scene.

Sheesh.

This is Alexander and Hamilton.

They fight a lot.

The voices in my head are constantly using the F-word. It's like, come on, guys. Let's have a little decorum here.

Thoughts and prayers for my Lexapro and Wellbutrin. Those little guys are working so hard these days.

Folks, the stress is real.

Now I’m even procrastinating in Stardew Valley.

Has anyone heard any updates on that They Live sunglasses technology? Could really use a pair to see who voted for…you know. If you can get that done before Thanksgiving that would be great. Kthx!

Eight years ago it was “Drain the Swamp” and now it looks like an actual swamp is forming. Who’s next to be named? Secretary of the Interior Shrek?

Well, my library is in Atlantis.

So there.
Yeah?

Well, WE have the last remaining betamax store and I checked out a video that had the actual Gettysburg address filmed live and then Teddy Roosevelt did a 8.7 gymnastics routine in a a full-on Batman suit.

Picture's a little choppy, if I'm being honest.
My library has the Necronomicon ex mortis which is a good beach read, and it also has the king in yellow which is overrated, main character is really unlikable

If Thanos ever does actually show up, are we allowed to give suggestions before he snaps?

I'm pretty sure this is an echo chamber for decent people, so I will only use my energy to help us get through this together. It is okay for you not to know how to fix things. There may be a time and place, but it may not yet be now. In the meantime, play video games and pet your cats/dogs/hamsters.

Since there are a BUNCH of writers on here, what can we do in the next two years/four years to help the right side of history? Been racking my brain, and I can't figure out how to put my limited powers to their most effective use against the terribleness. #writingcommunity #resist

Also, this totally ruins knowing who Grover Cleveland is. Like, we used to be able to throw his name out there saying, "Hey, that must have been a unique situation!" But now, it's just like "I wonder if that guy was an asshole too."
