New idea for a Resident Evil movie just dropped.
I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

Oh, cool. More Microsoft Copilot AI features no one asked for and had their subscription prices hiked for.

Wish my #IndieAuthor career could be “led into exile” and “California up in flames” in such a way that Vanity Fair would help advertise my forthcoming book.

Aside: RFK Jr 💯 should have also had consequences in this scandal. Instead, he got given a high position in our government is causing harm.
Vanity Fair's West Coast Editor Olivia Nuzzi was a star political correspondent until scandal led her into exile—and to a California up in flames.

In an excerpt from her book, ‘American Canto,’ she takes stock of scorched earth.

Stop interviewing CEOs and start interviewing the people who actually make games.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

My latest newsletter just dropped which has an update on my schooling. Please clap.

I’m also looking for Producer tier subscribers. These subscribers will be my teammates who help fund the newsletter and pay for authors and poets who contribute free pieces to the library. More at the link on that.

the point of camo for a soldier is to obscure their position from the enemy. camo in an urban environment is completely different, and this forest green or desert pattern is functionally useless.

police only dress this way to project an image of power they should not have.

This past Halloween was two book anniversaries for me. Sweet Sixteen Killer turned 5 years old and Her Last Halloween turned 2 years old. To honor that, the two of them are free as a digital bundle and the third story Jonah of Olympic is $2 off.

I think two ideas can help people lead a decent life. And that’s “be kind to each other” and “don’t be a dick.” They’re simple ideas. The first is to default to kindness with people. The second is to avoid being ugly to people. Many people fail both concepts on the daily which is sad.

The interview w/ @lanacasiello.bsky.social went great. A little longer than I’d hoped. I’m trying to pull out some deep thoughts in these and even with a short list of questions, we managed to talk for over an hour.

We discussed Lana’s Hawaiian heritage, generational trauma and why she writes.

It doesn’t matter? Have these writers only seen the Craig James Bond films? Do they not know that like every ten years or so we wash everything away and start with a new actor and fuck over the continuity? Christ. Him dying is just the end of the Craig films not the franchise. Jesus.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

My Kim Davis jokes. Should I keep doing these? I feel like she’ll always be a joke and good fertilizer for humor.

From the New York Times podcast about how women ruined the workplace, Andrews says, “So, I don’t know — I don’t want to say that we all know what wokeness is.”

Conservatives still can’t define woke. If you can’t define what you hate, maybe don’t hate it. 🤷‍♀️

I think I have this short story “Blood Frequency” right where I want it. I don’t think it needs anymore editing or revisions. I think I got it. I can’t wait to get it out there for everyone to read. I’m super stoked for it… 1/2 #AmEditing #WritingCommunity #horror #scifi #YoungAdult
