“They don’t even have Tourette’s, I’ve never seen them tic.” I’m very sorry the person with a disability isn’t adequately performing their disability for you. I’m sure being laughed at or constantly having to publicly explain themselves is super fun and not humiliating at all.

The universe didn’t give me any stories, god has not installed the virtue of storytelling within me. I sat down and wrote a book. And now I’m writing a second. That’s not divinity at work, that’s hours and hours of commitment to a singular story. Fuck off “god gave me the story” corny ass.

Neat. That makes my soul hurt.

Til all are one.

Everytime I attempt an outline, it turns into me just writing the book. I am constitutionally incapable of outlining.

Milly Alcock would make an incredible James Bond. Fuck you, fight me. Don’t though, I don’t have the attention span for that.

All I’m saying is that if Perez Hilton was reporting this story, instead of living it, he would not be kind. He would not respect people’s privacy. He made a life of being a piece of shit for money, that makes empathy difficult.

Every single thing James Corden does would be improved if James Corden didn’t do it.

Man, if people thought the bear discourse was wild, women picking the wicker basket over men is going to blow that out of the water.

I have no clue who needs to see this but start writing again.

The conservative viewpoint is inherently anti-art.

Offering you Oatmeal raisin cookies is how people pleasers tell you they no longer have feelings for you.

I don’t believe people care about how Christopher Nolan adapted The Odyssey. I truly don’t. It’s just another example of manufactured outrage from bored internet trolls. The story has been reimagined thousands of times over centuries, pretending that matters for this film is disingenuous at best.

I got my first feedback from my first novel. In April, I had never written so much as a short story. Today, I have a completed manuscript (it still needs work, but I’m on version 3) and someone who actually read my manuscript cover to cover and enjoyed it. Best thing this year.

What's the best thing that happened to you today? #BestThingOfTheDay

Every single argument about “preserving Greek culture” goes right out the window when I can’t throw a rock without hitting a piece of art inspired by Greek myth. It’s already been preserved, y’all are just whining.

I actually think you just shouldn’t get to watch movies anymore. Like, legally.

Lindsey Graham out of left field, what won’t they do to distract from Mitch McConnell?

I’m at a copy shop having my manuscript printed and made physical for the first time. It’s far from finished, loads of edits now that the story is all there, but it was important for me to frame it as it is right now. I wrote a fucking book, y’all.

The most boring, unimaginative take on adapted media is “THEY SHOULD HAVE JUST MADE THE ORIGINAL AGAIN VERBATIM.” There is a reason people who say that are in the audience and not behind the camera.

AND I’LL KEEP GOING UNTIL WE GET A SEQUEL.

Name the last film you saw in a theater.

Yeah, well, I want my art to be made by real people.

A24 Wants You to Be Nice About Its Google AI Deal

Can we pre-ban the term ‘cursive singing’ before the keyboard critics really get hold of it? I feel like we’ve got about 3 more days before it becomes as annoying as ‘slop’ or ‘shill.’

Christian Bale gained 54 feet for the role.

Culture Crave 🍿@culturecrave.co · 4mo ago

Christopher Nolan says a real 60-foot contraption was used for the Cyclops in ‘The Odyssey’ ⚔️ Puppetry and animatronics were also used “Everything about the Cyclops sequence is aimed at trying to imagine: what would this be like in real life?” (via Empire Magazine)

All that AI integration only for no one to be able to afford the platform. Such a pity. Wait, no. Not pity. Laugh. I’m having such a laugh. (As someone who has had an Xbox since the OG Halo came out)

"Effective August 1, 2026, the price of XBOX consoles will increase by US$100 for 512 GB models and US$150 for 1 TB models. We will be updating prices worldwide. We will also be sunsetting our 2 TB model." news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/0...

Honestly, fandoms have become so unbearable over the last decade with the incel/conservative nonsense, that normal people are going to need to become bullies to rectify how toxic pretty much every fandom is. Their notifications should be flooded with people insulting them all day, every day.

EVIL DEAD WRATH is set in 1972. "It predates everything," producer Rob Tapert teases. "It will feel like a 1972 movie." In theaters April 7, 2028.

It never should have been on broadcast television, but The Black Donnellys had so much potential.

Name your fav TV show that was canceled too soon.

I finished my alpha manuscript today, 96,000 words. I kinda feel like a real writer right now.

The First Law Trilogy, by Joe Abercrombie. Each book is a season, followed by 3 films, each adapting one of the three spin-off books. Best Served Cold on the big screen would be an incredible experience.

They did, they made a trailer and put a rating on it.
