I think one of the most important skills a person can learn nowadays is recognizing when they are making up a person in their head to get mad at and how they can step back from that and ground themselves. No shade. It's an extremely easy behavior to fall into and it will erode you.

say what you will about the internet, but it’s undeniably the best way to find new stupid stuff to be insane about every day

◈ It's a Long Walk to Diamond City ◈ I've been working on a longform narrative improv series performed inside Fallout 4 VR. It's gonna be silly final-pam-type energy -- Check out the overdramatic intro I just made! If you wanna be notified when the first one is live, follow twitch.tv/bugandmoss!

What's your favorite film with MOON in the title? Moon (2009) Severe Isolation and alienation in Space Astonishing performance by Rockwell. Carries the whole movie on his shoulders. Oscar worthy but wasn’t even shortlisted

Feels like an At The Drive In kind of morning.

My Summer of (Movie) Love series continues today with another sweaty, summer favorite of 1986 — MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE. I love it and make no apologies for that either. 😆 Open to free & paid subscribers: from-the-desk-of-the-horror-chick.ghost.io/summer-of-mo... Cheers! 🚛🚛🚛

Widow’s Bay is the best show on TV right now. A horror/comedy that does both genres extremely well. Its Parks & Rec + Stephen King and I cannot recommend it enough.

“If students are using it to compose, which is the biggest tragedy of all, they’ll never learn to write. And their voice is stolen from them.”

Dave Eggers told OpenAI staff that ChatGPT was ‘silencing an entire generation’

He called AI writing “pastiche nonsense.”

Alright, it's Friday again, somehow, which means it's time for "The Internet Is Good - #2!" A newsletter in which I try to kill the urge to doomscroll by celebrating the cool parts of the internet www.pacificobadiah.com/the-internet...

The Internet is Good #2

Welcome to Part #2 of an ongoing series in which I stop and smell the virtual roses! The internet is vast, and I need to remind myself that there's more to do than just doomscroll.

The last time I “read a book” I learned that there’s a skeleton inside my body. Never again.

Straight up having the time of my life playing fallout 4 in VR. (After a nightmare setting it all up!) I cut my first stream into this little 5min highlight reel. I think it'll make you laugh!! (also appreciate a share if it does!)

Cat Heaven got a good one this weekend. 6,000 days weren’t nearly enough, but I’m thankful for all of them. Give your little one an extra scratch behind the ear today in honor of Joslyn.

Mamdani got into office and instantly: • Froze rent for 2 million New Yorkers • Cut subway fares in half for low-income riders • Fully funded NYC parks • Added $680M for public schools • Launched free child care for 2-year-olds If establishment politicians actually wanted to help you, they could.

celebrating the good parts of america today. if you don’t think there are any good parts, just look to all the stuff the fascists are desperate to stifle

Happy Return of the Living Dead day to all who celebrate

Just a reminder. I'm always surprised how many people aren't aware of this. #Libraries

I honestly don’t understand how anyone in Audio Fiction can afford to do anything. Submitting for awards. Hiring people to work on shows. I want to do more, but everything seems to drastically outpace the money most shows are able to bring in.

Where my #widowsbay fans at?? How it started v how it’s going!

one of the best parts of being a parent is letting your kids stay up late eating ice cream and then being baffled the next morning when they’re out of their minds

When I recommend this show to people, especially of my age group, I say- remember when you were young and you heard a new Stephen King movie/show was coming and you hoped it was good, but then it almost always wasn’t. Widow’s Bay is what we were hoping for.

There's more books, movies, TV shows, video games, music and other arts being made more than any other point in history, but ppl say it all feels hollow and we're in cultural decline. I dunno what to tell you.Spend more time with the stuff you like instead of moving on to the next new shiny thing.

Need yet another reason to love Widow’s Bay? This is the creator:
