Man, I feel like mold. It's prom night and I am lonely. Lo and behold…

Standing at a campfire while crushing beer and enjoying nature and the silence of a snowstorm is honestly my happy place.

I’m the last man standing at our afternoon backyard campfire amidst a snowstorm, desperately keeping it afire while singing to Teenage Dirtbag. THAT’S how cool I am, if you were wondering. Oop, Santeria just started playing, gotta go.

The Rise of RentAHuman, the Marketplace Where Bots Put People to Work WIRED spoke with the Zoomer founders of a platform where AI agents hire humans to do real-world tasks. Their pitch: "People would love to have a clanker as their boss."

Loved him in Interstellar, well, I loved Interstellar, and he was there until he turned into moody dickheaded Casey Affleck, which was an improved character development.

One of the smartest decisions any sporting league has ever has, is when F1 decided to let Netflix make Drive to Survive. When I watched that first season, I was hooked. Watching races & shopping for Red Bull Racing swag like a madman. Going on season 8 and I’m still mad about F1. It converted me.

Red and orange sunset on a flat plain with a cloud shaped like a t-rex running across the horizon.

Took a sunset photo tonight that’s obviously a t-rex cloud dashing across the Jurassic plains.

Nice. Sounds refreshing. I’m three tallboys in myself.

I’m jealous because I’m 41 minutes past it and maybe 2 hours away from this:

Our house is one of those homes with rounded corners nearly everywhere, so I’ve had to resort to door jambs for scratching my back, which has been a blessing in disguise, thanks to the multiple sharp corners. Helluva scratch, let me tell ya!

Lamorne Morris voicing Garfield in the new animated series is Ferguson-Approved!

I didn’t catch the name of the company. Some corporate workflow organization tool.

For the love of god, someone get Idris Elba some more movie/series roles so he doesn’t need to do commercials to hock AI bullshit!

Finished an outline for my first real attempt at a pilot after focusing on features for years. Suuuper stoked on how it’s all coming together. Going to dig into pages tonight.

This feeling never gets old. It's my lifeline.

We’re having a late, not-so-surprise birthday celebration at our house today, with family and friends. I misread the message plastered on our wall as “Cheers to 40 Beers,” and I’m just not going to bother rereading that sign and do as it commands.

A downside of both my wife & I being home full time — me as the househusband, her as the moneymaker — is that she often receives the chaos of the child(ren) as collateral damage. She’s essentially in the trenches with me. There are no reinforcements when we’re both overstimulated to the max 😂🤪

A small scene from my feature WIP, The Proving Grounds for #Funpagefriday

Nearly that time of the day for some truth serum, don'tcha think?

#Scriptsky #Firstpagefriday

For me, it’s two strangers in a beat-up muscle car having the time of their lives, hauling ass down a desert road while a dozen cop cars pursue, weaving in and out of their trail of dust. Balls to the wall. Pedal through the floor. Barely in control.

Hey, #Scriptsky, I wanted to try something here.

When you hear this song, what kind of scene does it conjure up inside your head?

1!

We went through this from June to September last year, so I hear where you're coming from. Congrats on the new home and yes, the creative juices will be churning before you know it!

Speaking in hypotheticals here, William! 😂

I’ve thought about writing an overexagerated story about my grade 12 year where I won athlete of the year despite having a debilitating knee injury that effected most of my year (and life).

It makes me sound like I was an athletic specimen, but in reality I just had a very low bar to reach 🤣

That would be nice. I figured they read the first few pages and went “Nah.” lol.

Now that I’m doing the math, your reader may have expired so it was returned to the pool, which I guess is different than being unclaimed like my scenario.

I had someone claim my script then unclaim it less than 24 hours later. Not as extreme as your situation, but yes I have experienced the “unclaim” before.

If you could direct me towards this volcano, that would be greatly appreciated.

Retrace your steps. Walk the same route again. Go find that memory!
