When all you want to do is get out of the situation that you're in because one person is just playing the poor me card all the time and just expects people to do everything for them and they don't bother to understand how you're just trying to protect your own mental health.

Hey all. ICYMI here is a post I published yesterday about action lines. dshorb.medium.com/screenwritin... #Screenwriting101 #Screenwriting #Movies #Television

Oh look! I published a new article on Medium! dshorb.medium.com/screenwritin... #Screenwriting #flim #tv

Hey #ICYMI I published a new article over the weekend on Medium! "Back To School Year 2: Action Line Writing." https://buff.ly/4176zXr #filmschool

Hey all! #ICYMI here is a post about my ninth month back in school at LAFS. https://buff.ly/4aVZfkO... #filmschool #archive

Hey check out this article I did last year about why I prefer to write Character Driven stories. https://buff.ly/3WWVsxF #Screeenwriting #archive

Hey look at that. I just published a new article on Medium! https://buff.ly/4176zXr #filmschool #LAFS

Been working on some ideas. If you have a question on how I feel about straight arm "roman" salutes. Just look at my profile banner and my new profile Pic. That could clear things up. Feel free to use them if you want.

Watching the original Naked Gun. #ClassicFilms #Comedy

Holiday Headlines in America One man becomes the first person to reach a net worth of $400 billion while more than 770,000 people were pushed to homelessness

Hey #ICYMI I published the article about my last 2 months of my first year at The Los Angeles Film School. dshorb.medium.com/back-to-scho...

Have you ever wanted to just look at someone who has been just a total assclown. And ask them, if someone has ever told them. They are the reason that person has to take antidepressants?

This is highly disconcerting. WaPo editors killed an editorial cartoon that mocked Bezos and other tech oligarchs. Will the Post respond to this? Democracy dies with accommodation. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

Hey all! I finally got around to writing about the last two months of my first year at The Los Angeles Film School. I write about Character Creation and Dialog by two of my favorite instructors. #writing #screenwriting #LAFS #filmschool dshorb.medium.com/back-to-scho...

Watching the live session for my last week of my Dialog class. This chick that was in the live class is fucking annoying. Think Comic Book Guy in the Simpsons. But more fucking annoying. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I did a thing over on Tiktok. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYqoEnPs/

Just a friendly reminder. Only you can be responsible for your happiness. Other people have no obligation or responsibility for your happiness. Only you can make you happy.

It's great to tell people just take the high road. The problem with that is although you may not get dirty it just means someone else will have to deal with the troll on the low road. In order to save democracy we have to be ready to get dirty and get bloody and get into the muck and slay the troll.

I have the same questions and concerns about a Trump 2.0 administration as I'd have upon hearing that a horde of angry chimpanzees had commandeered a cache of loaded assault weapons: How and why was this allowed to happen, and who will be held accountable for cleaning up the devastating aftermath?

BREAKING: Trump 2.0 wants to suppress car-crash statistics, just like Trump 1.0 suppressed results of Covid testing: If you don't report it, it didn't happen. Ignorance is not bliss, but it would certainly solve a lot of problems for Elon and his four-wheeled deathtraps.

Didn't you get the memo? Ethics no longer matter.

Congratulations to AOC and all the new generation of Democratic leaders!

If you are wondering which version of A Christmas Carol works the best for me personally, why, it's the 80s version with George C. Scott, and I have a whole essay on it over on my site: whatever.scalzi.com/2023/12/24/t...

They’re free marketing public health and it’s going to work out as poorly as bank deregulation

In his Time interview, Trump now says he’s not sure he can bring grocery prices down and that “it’s very hard.”

Marsha Blackburn says one of her legislative priorities is to ban free lunches in schools. She's okay with children going hungry as long as billionaires get their tax cuts! If she would do this to kids, you think she cares about your Social Security or Medicare? NO! She's going to cut that too!

I love her.

How many other deaths were "not included" in Louis Appleby's so-called report?

You realize why silicon Valley is so on board with fascism when most of them are outright white supremacists and nazis. www.404media.co/ceo-attempte...

Remember people. Just Ask WWIJD what would Indiana Jones Do?

You would think that Apple would make it so the Airpod Pro case could charge the Apple Watch. That makes sense to me. #Apple #technology

American Express Launches Small Sweatshop Saturday theonion.com/american-exp...

Another day, same shit, different shovel. Off to the salt mines to earn my meager living to pay bills so I can survive for another month. This weekend is about creating my space so I can write in peace and quiet. In other words I need to clean my room. My ADHD has been ADHD-ing a bit too much.

See they should have told them sooner. #SupermanandLois

I decided to start watching Superman & Lois on Max #TvShows #Streaming

Printed out my 1/2 finished novel for Lisa Goodwin and will be reading through it and pulling what works and what doesn't and starting a serious outline for the pilot. It's time to get serious about writing the pilot. #Screenwriting #WritingCommunity #writerslife

I’ve ID’d a nazi who‘s a DevOps guy at Blue Cross Blue Shield. Happy to share his info with anyone who might want to help let BCBS know that this employee spends his time running popular white nationalist accounts on X and Gab.

Jennifer Lawrence opened up to CBS Mornings about how her family encouraged her not to produce Bread & Roses, a new Apple TV+ documentary about Afghan women living under Taliban rule—and clapped back at trolls who claim she's "not educated" enough to tackle political subjects.
