A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

This is a certainty.

Of course, Christianity itself is nothing but a suicide cult.

Well, despite my education, decent resume and status as a decorated wartime veteran, I am homeless. This is the country I fought for. Where I cannot even afford to live in it. If you think the problems lie in DEI or anything related to trans people, please, with great relish fuck off.

Of course they don’t.

Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

I have two bachelors degrees, served in the Army during wartime earning several medals, published two novels and am a parent of special needs child. On paper I should be hugely employable. Right?

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

I feel like I’m trying to win a game I didn’t even want to play in the first place. I didn’t agree to any of this crap, you know? Whoever invented money was the original evil.

There is no such fucking thing as being “too woman” to pilot a helicopter, “too gay” to land a plane or “too black” to be an air traffic controller. There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president. And we call that Donald Trump.

One more thing to say this morning

This is gorgeous!!

Explained to a younger coworker that movies are the literature of time and I watched his brain get extra wrinkles, I swear! 😆

Did a fresh cut of my short film, fixing a lot of the small tech issues I didn’t have time to do before. The audio for starters is a lot cleaner! Enjoy! #indiefilm #austin #romance #filmmaker #neonoir #cinematography On Her BIrthday - Narrative Short Film - 2024 cut youtu.be/HBQck-79QVA

The internet

@adamconover.net Alamo Drafthouse just laid 30% of their hourly staff nationwide with zero warning this week. We’ve begun picketing in Austin. I’d love to talk to you about it!

Calling today a difficult day for my mental is an understatement. I hit this wall, realizing that the world I grew up in is never coming back. My son is going to struggle in ways I can’t fix. I just feel defeated from the ground on up and I am wrestling with how I’m supposed keep going.

Take risk. Unless someone will Get hurt, take the risk. You never know what’ll happen.

🤔 Do You think that the Constitution WILL be enforced to prevent Traitor Felon 45's inauguration ❓️ 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

I haven’t done a new pinup in such a long time that I can’t remember when it was. But here we go? Return to form while in transition between gigs. #pinupart #digitalartist #pinup #model #procreateartist

If if said not once, I’ve said a hundred times: “If you find good people, keep good people.” Acknowledge them, love them, and remind them that they’re good people. I remind mine all the time because it keeps me humble and grateful for them.

Trying to stay positive in a world that makes me so angry is my greatest challenge today.

Think twice before gifting someone an M dwarf this holiday season

Here’s a good idea that I’ve found a lot of miles in: If you find good people, keep good people. It’s definitely worth the effort.

I may not always be the most well off, but once in a while, I’m reminded I’m very lucky in the people I choose to keep close.

I just posted this on Twitter with no note. I'm conducting a little experiment. Results to follow.

I detest waiting for emails 😜

Just in case you forgot: What if it works? What if it actually works out? Whatever it is that you’re hoping for, what if it works?

Anyone else hate waiting for emails? At least in the days of snail-mail correspondence you could go on living your life until the mailman came. I’m just anxious all the time waiting for some huge news for me to roll in.

This is so wild. I actually feel like posting here. Bizarre…

This year I’m thankful for: -My son growing and changing -My best friends supporting me -My partner encouraging and loving me -The chances that I get to make something I care about -My Dad leaning on me -That no matter what, I still got to see The Matrix in theaters on its original run.

A great Turkey Day with my favorite people

First meeting went really well. Got a request for a script 🤞😅
