I have eighty things on my mind, four of them are about the US men's hockey team and their shitty behavior during their gold medal "celebration." But first, please join me in screaming about this: Riz Ahmed in "An electrifying reimagining of Shakespeare's
My Top Three Earth invasion movies: 1. Pacific Rim 2. Battle: Los Angeles 3. Independence Day My first completed novel was the first book in a planned trilogy about the invasion of Earth by vicious aliens with telekinetic powers. It was a massive, thousand-character monstrosity that spanned the globe. Complete
The title doesn't quite fit the newsletter this week, but I like the way it feels so we're going to roll with it. I am back from my week long adventure across the wilds of Canada and my brain is filled with so much that it
I wrote a quick thread over on Bluesky the other day while out walking because I had words in my head that I needed to get down. Making art is about joy. Creation is the point, the ACT of creation, not the outcome. This is one of the reasons AI

I am reading Let This Radicalize You: Organizing and the Revolution of Reciprocal Care by Kelly Hayes & Mariame Kaba. It's more than just a book about activism, it's about hope and community and how we care not only for each other but for ourselves while
Buckle up, folks, this one is personal. I was 42 when I came out, which is something that will forever fill me with amusement. That is, after all, the answer to life, the universe, and everything - so it makes perfect sense that it all went down that way. The
I ironically injured, or more accurately aggravated old injuries, my left hand after posting last week's newsletter and then spent a good chunk of the following week trying to baby it back into some form of health. It feels mostly better (we're back to the normal
