SDCC went sooo fast this year! A huge thank you to everyone who came by to say hi, especially everyone who told us that visiting Monkey Minion is a yearly part of the con for them. I don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for all of you!
Plane is about to take off so @monkeyminion.com won’t be able to refresh the Kickstarter for a while. Thoughts and prayers, y’all.
First time I’ve ever been paid to pick up storm trash in my yard.
Great Blue Heron at Sunset. And boats. San Diego, you’re so pretty.

Hey writers - would you like to shit all over yourself, and them smear that shit all over your readers, and then for fun, take another shit on yourself and smear it all over people in movie theatres? IF SO have we got a plan for you!
Every Writer@everywriter.bsky.social · 6mo agoWriters if you could drop your novel or short story into an AI and have it make a great and watchable movie out of your story, and you could sell that movie, would you do it? #writers #WritingCommunity
I am begging for a button that tells Acrobat I will *never* want an AI summary, but especially for this document that I f@cking wrote.
Woohoo it’s a balmy 33 degrees right now so maybe I’ll actually go outside.
Keeping the message to my reps short and easy to understand.
Getting into the holiday spirit by doing laundry and listening to a six part Jack the Ripper series from one of my history podcasts. What about y’all?
Wow. Just passed a FedEx Truck on the highway fully engulfed in flames on the way to dinner.
So this year at #DragonCon we started a new tradition and watched the parade live while vending in the AA. Turns out DragonCon TV access is really affordable and we’re totally getting it every year now.
Is @monkeyminion.com prepping for #DragonCon by making even more Borbs for his Summer of the Borbs? Yes. Is the lack of sleep showing? Also yes.
Hello Gencon you beautiful beast! Dodge the crowds and say hi if you can while @monkeyminion.com and I are still almost able to communicate!

Are we bagging a new print in the hotel room before GenCon starts tomorrow? You bet we are! (Booth number 2831.)
I decided to make a villain (invasive species). I named this spotted lanternfly Sephiroth after a fellow evil beauty🖤 . . #spottedlanternfly #insect #entomology #invasivespecies
I actually talked to a real person in my Rep’s office! I was so shocked, I almost hung up. 😂 (Call your congress people.)
Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right
Today’s post cards to my Congress people are a reminder that the Constitution requires due process for everyone and respecting that protects everyone - including citizens.
I used to purposefully make calls to my Congress people after office hours because I hate talking to people on the phone. Lately I’ve been trying to actually speak to someone during the day and they aren’t answering the phone.
Working on a possible idea for SDCC. SoCal folks! What is your favorite Southern California Bird? #sdcc
There’s many reasons why we (ecologists, conservation biologists) are pissed about the GMO gray wolves.
#NEW: The House has also voted to overturn the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's rule limiting overdraft fees to $5. 217-211. All yay votes were GOP, 1 GOP plus all voting Dems were nay. The big banks won. Regular people lost.
Joe Katz@joekatz45.bsky.social · last yr.ICYMI: The Senate today voted 52-48 to overturn the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's rule limiting overdraft fees to $5. Score one for those plucky big banks and predatory fees! All Democrats and Josh Hawley voted no. Bill headed to the House. @5calls.org script @ 5calls.org/issue/overdr...
okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line
