You ever think about how internet atheists used to use quotes from Jesus about not eating shelfish to say the Bible is out of date and now Christians use quotes from Jesus about empathy to say the Bible is out of date?

John Redcorn was pretty much the only contemporary Native representation I had in comedy growing up. Probably the funniest Native character in cartoon history and a lot of that was on Jonathan Joss' pitch perfect rezzy uncle performance. RIP to one of the best to ever do it.

This is one of our best independent film festivals in the country and I am so proud to be a part of it!

KAIJU KID is stomping through America and Cleveland is next to get smashed by our strange stop motion beast. We’re playing on April 5 as a Saturday Morning Cartoon which is a real dream come true. I can’t wait to see where we get to destroy next

Just remembering that some people’s reaction to CIVIL WAR was “those states would never split into those configurations.” Amazing stuff.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question but most of these fires are caused by our electrical wires right? Is there not a way to build an electrical grid that doesn’t blow up half the county once a year?

Just saw a post from a new AI startup that links together 4 different AI LLMs “for the best results” so we are fully entering the era of robots talking to robots. 4 times the energy use for, what, a 10% improvement at best?

2024 has been a year of many highs & lows, and it's ending with one more: I was a semi-finalist for the NBC TV Writing Program

Definitely bummed I didn't make it further but it's a nice sign of how much I've grown as a writer since I first started submitting to these to get this far. Now onto 2025!
