My god. The HWA did an HWA?

The Seinfeld finale had a really weird death montage, but I'm glad they laid the series to rest.

Entering without a search warrant, destroying property, arson, sexual assault with a concrete dildo?

Pardon me, I’m doing promotion for my recent short film, AFTER THE FALL, which was released today. I was first attracted to Jeffrey Thomas’ story due to its “Lovecraft meets Springsteen” working class aesthetic. And it reminded me of Nathan Ballingrud’s work. #indiefilm youtu.be/DdYWHdbI39Y

Author: "So many people told me about this book I haven't read and asked me if I referenced it, so now that I have a reason to make this all about me, I'm finally reading this book I wasn't reading before!"

Back in the day, the reviewers (who now all work for Aftermath, giving me a decent idea of how much to respect that site) kept asking "why are you doing jobs for the cops?" That's not the question, they just read at a third-grade level. The question is, "why are you doing the cops' job for them?"

Look, the cops are busy doing the crime stats version of insider trading so you end up doing their job anyway by hacking the police scanner

Got jumpscared today by someone posting a clip of Linkara ranting about how Israel deserves nukes from a review of Superman 4 and man, that is just a guy where we should have thrown the whole person away, right? More red flags than a beach during hurricane season.

Like Ghost Shark, but targeting only people who ever said anything bad about Jaws IV

let's pretend: Universal announces a screenwriting contest for Jaws 5. What's your pitch?

Okay, darlings, let's rock

Pardon me, I'm doing promotion for my recent short film, AFTER THE FALL. My co-producer & cast member Jennifer Trudrung, seen in our primary image, is a wildly excellent writer and director of her own. Her horror feature, THE VIRGINS, will be playing festivals soon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdYW...

If 2026 has taught me anything, it's that shutting the fuck up and not self-reporting is a perfectly okay and mature thing to do.

I don't even know what to say. This is real, this is true, so, like, thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. This took over 25 years to happen so if there's any lesson here it's either "keep at it, who knows" or "many people are divorced"

Visitor Q had a weird original title.

I wonder why no one's done a Mormon Raise The Red Lantern yet

You just *know* Bruce Wayne insider-trades on Kalshi's markets for Batman. You just *know*.

Something I want to write about but would hate to research is the relationship of length of works on the internet to capital and how it urges people to Gish gallop and pad their work immensely just to hit the "right length" for people.

OOCT: "Scully. Before she got gender-affirming care, became a NYPD officer in Brooklyn, and partnered with a guy named Hitchcock."

The third image looks like the kind of thing 40K haters believe 40K is instead of what it actually is, huge men and robots getting so in their feelings they punch fist-sized holes in each other.

Really, *really* dislike what I'm seeing of the new Dark Sun. OG Dark Sun had some seriously cool, *very relevant* themes (life under tyranny, life after genocide, life after ecocide) + bondage glam rock Jojo-pose aura-farming. This new stuff is busy-gore + generic metal + cyberpunk (???) Urgh.

If you self-censor on here, you can go **** yourself, you ****

"Games need to be better, we need to be better about games, and gamers are absolute stupid trash people" is an opinion held by the majority of, if not wholly exclusively by, gamers.

It doesn't help that it's never the fun board games. Yeah I'd love four hours of fucking Catan with 2 people who take it way too seriously and get angry if you don't, one weirdo who won't stop talking about anal and two ADHD dorks who wander off two hours in but insist we don't skip their turn.
