The only solace I take in all this is that it never ends well for the people doing it. "These violent delights have violent ends."

Saw a post on IG talking about how pizza is one of the worst things to put in your body and I did not hesitate to report it as hate speech.

thank you to Kendrick and the Eagles for making terrible people angry tonight

This is beautiful.

I'm kinda hoping to see Trump do that stupid awkward dance he does during Kendrick's halftime show.

It's insane how much patriotism you have to display before a football game played between two American teams in a solely American league.

Adults who show up to the zoo decked out like they're going on a whole ass safari with big ass telephoto lenses make me chuckle

Requested a laptop upgrade at work and IT was like "what's wrong with your current one?" I said "It's too old to run Baldur's Gate 3."

I'm on a 35 day streak with Irish on Duolingo. I saw Kneecap and was like "yoooo we gotta keep the language alive lfg"

David Lynch made me realize that I'm a weirdo. I saw Mulholland Drive and was like "I fucking love this but I can't tell my friends to watch it because they'll think I'm fucking weird." RIP to an absolute legend.

Wish I could go back to the days* before I knew what the Watch Duty app was. * 8 days. It was 8 days ago.

This final season of Cobra Kai is pretty soapy, but it's still one of of the best shows of the streaming era and one of the best revivals of an 80s franchise. That tag team quarterfinal fight in ep 9 was sick af and Kwon is such a good villain.

One of my new year resolutions should be to stop reading Instagram comments. I knew that people were dumb but jfc

You gotta make art that sucks in order to make art that fucks

Having to go to the DMV is the most humbling reminder that you ain't shit

Somehow my IG explore page has been taken over by astrology (which I enjoy but don't believe in) and dark psychology. The dark psychology shit is WILD. "Do not look back to close the door when you enter a room. This indicates dominance." Bro are you ok

Even if you don't get the deal, Pilotpalooza is amazing and totally worth the cost. I second the testimonial below. It forces you to work on your script every day, and just get things out of your head and onto the page, instead of letting things linger and worrying about whether or not it's good.

I'm watching that Harry Potter baking show and the cakes are pretty amazing, but the judging portion 100% feels like that Key and Peele cooking competition episode

I'm watching Anatomy of Lies and the most startling thing I learned is that the the Mayo Clinic is a real place.

Poem by Joseph Fasano

Writing tip: Write a book you can sell to publishers for a lot of money. You can then use the money to buy the things you want.

Krill Wave Radio on Monterey Bay Aquarium's (@montereyaq.bsky.social) YouTube channel is one of my favorite and most useful writing tools. Can't beat lofi beats coupled with hours and hours of marine life.

These are the types of problems billionaires should be spending their money on trying to fix, not going to space or buying game companies to stop them from "going woke." But these problems are created by people who are trying to become billionaires, and therein lies the rub.

Just pre-ordered How To Be More Like Kendrick for Dummies

I tried reading Pynchon's Mason & Dixon several years ago and I couldn't get past the 2nd or 3rd page no matter how many times I tried. It made me feel pretty stupid. One of these days I'm gonna crack that sumbitch.

OK Father John Misty, I listened to GNX all day for two days straight. Now I'm ready for your new shit.

listening to joe rogan's podcast is reading

I've been depressed all week and the bass line in wacced out murals is melting it all away. #kendricklamar #gnx #kungfukenny

I'm sorry, but you can't call posts on here skeets. You have to find another name.

Things (old and new) that I'm into right now: Chappell Roan, Slipknot, The Penguin, Megalopolis, The Substance, Letterboxd, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Limp Bizkit, new Linkin Park, Chromakopia, avoiding the news, getting hyped for Gladiator 2 and Nosferatu, Normal People (book), tarot, Agatha All Along.

I just finished my first writers room gig, and friends, I gotta say, that shit was a fucking amazing experience. Looking for the next one like (IYKYK)

Just mass deleted of all my tweets. Felt weird erasing 17 years worth of random thoughts. I found love on there a couple times, made friends, learned a lot about writing from people who are now potential coworkers. It's hard to let go of all that even though site has been run into the ground.

Officially done with the other site. But also losing interest in this type of social media in general. Mostly just wanna share pics of my kid on IG and post useless shitpost reviews of movies in Letterboxd.

Letterboxd is the best social network

I'm also kicking myself for throwing away the Pip Boy that came with the collectors edition. Would have made for a good Halloween costume this year.

The Fallout show is so good it got me revisiting Fallout 4. I gave up on it pretty quickly because the male voice actor was so awful that I couldn't stand it anymore. I'd put enough time into it where I didn't want to start over. I just restarted with a female character and it's so much better.

I don’t know who wrote this, but it’s absolutely perfect
