This month, we begin a labor of love: We're rewriting Star Wars. Every trilogy. As an exquisite corpse. Each movie has its own writing team, who get to keep, cut, or add whatever they want. Their choices become the next team's foundations. Welcome to the first ever REWRITE RELAY on moonshot.mov!

huge for me bc in 2011 i helped a friend write her syot fic. it’s gone forever now & all i remember is we were VERY proud of the humor (?) & it was gonna end with a proto-rebellion which the capitol makes everyone forget & sends the rebel tributes to districts 11 & 12 to become katniss, peeta & rue

it’s cool how christopher nolan is trying to court me specifically fsr with his last two movies being “jewish communist scientists in the 1940s” and “greek mythology starring matt damon”. excited to see if he makes the hat trick.

what @shoebill.moe's incredibly kind words here aren't talking up is how drop-dead gorgeous HIS art for the upcoming book is. it's been UNBELIEVABLY cool to see these characters come to life in such beautiful detail. see see more of it on the Kickstarter here! 🔗 www.kickstarter.com/projects/gal...

Earnestly excited for D&D afficionados; but if you want a system handmade to bring you authentic, emotional, incredible Star Wars experiences, Galactic & Going Rogue by @rileyrethal.bsky.social and @jessfrom.online is the finest system ever written. 🔗: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gal...

read kingdom come by mark waid and alex ross today and i think it maybe gave me the ick for all of superhero comics a little bit. i think it’s made me think less of the medium as a whole. lowkey.

i’m not totally out of the woods yet but i have a story i feel pretty good about and it’s kinda neat that my strategy was basically “outline a way too complex plot based on all the ideas i have, then narrow it down to the most essential beats and come up with a new outline based on just those”

i’ve been working on a fic lately that actually requires formulating a Plot (it’s a noir au, so it’s got a murder mystery) and i truly don’t know how anyone has written one of these ever this is so fucking hard

I thought this was a pretty interesting take from Codeberg's announcement of their anti-LLM policy They argue that many developers using LLMs are essentially heaven-banning themselves where they don't realize they're developing for a nonexistent community

# The development team of none Using LLMs to work with your code gives you a kick of adrenaline. You can develop at a rapid pace, build things as if you had a large team. Only that you have none. In fact, you are (often) alone, working with a statistical machine that turns energy into code. It seems like many ‘vibe coders’ don't realize that they don't actually have a community around them. They build projects as if they had, and spend resources accordingly. We see projects having a lot of code activity, heavy CI/CD testing, frequent and large release binaries. Sometimes, it feels like the amount of supported platforms exceeds the amount of actual users. To us, it seems ridiculous to see projects with a single developer and virtually no users consuming as much or even more resources than some of the largest community projects on Codeberg, which operate frugal with CI/CD and storage resources. We do not believe it is reasonable for Codeberg to invest our precious donation money into hosting of large ghost projects.

people always say “i thought i knew everything when i was a teenager” and that’s crazy to me. is this a situation where i’m taking it too literally or did i just have way more perspective than the average teen? ok actually i bet i did but still

“the studio” is a ridiculously fun show about hollywood inside baseball with one episode that tries to imagine what non-film people think of the industry and completely fumbles the ball
