Him, scrolling through the library: "What's with all the werewolves??"

If I met my ten-year-old self, I'm not sure if he'd be impressed or disappointed. I think I'd just have trouble explaining what a "Patreon" is.

My hopes and dreams.

If you use generative AI, you are not a writer or artist.

Pass it on.

This post was under yours in my feed and I thought, "Me too."

Every AI commercial is like "Hey AI, what goes good on a sandwich?" and then the AI is like "Have you considered... cheese?" And then the narrator is like: THE FUTURE IS HERE.

Maybe things are looking up for poor Clarence. Just because there's a mobster's dead wife in his bed and he's on the run with no allies or money...

Nah, he's screwed. "Rats in the Cellar," Part 3, on Patreon.

There can be no better indicator that the tech sector lacks imagination than the fact that they think they invented it.

Hey, cool, Party Pete has a drinking buddy.

I love him

Here's a thought. When I had a Walkman I didn't have to subscribe to the headphones.

Knew I shouldn't have used all those hashtags! Now Bluesky won't work.

Dear Bluesky, what is the limit?

...making little twittering sounds?

Well. Maybe some pilots prefer to fly regional.

I don't know how to fly, but were I a pilot, and flying regional enabled me to bark at my colleagues, well...woof.

GenX Monopoly is: You never actually get a turn but somehow you have to pay for everything anyway.

Sid and Marty Krofftt staring at the screen going "Okay, that's just weird."

1970s animation is an absolute garden of this sort of thing. There were times when I was watching TV in the 1970s where I genuinely had no idea what I was looking at.

Dear JD Vance: Nice job in Hungary. Say, Susan Collins is up against a couple of strong challengers; maybe you could pop up here to Maine and say a few words on her behalf?

He got a dishwashing job. Nice work if you can get it, and a good place to start, in the context of the setting.

But I made it...well, a little extra.

I'm not sure how likely the scene is, but it was fun to write; Clarence's humiliation conga is not without motive and it's fun to watch him crack.

Thing is, most jobs that I could think of that are physically unpleasant are vital. And picking the wrong job would have just come across as classist in a story that's explicitly anti-classist.

Clarence is a snob, and I needed a job that would wreck him. I mean, for him, that could be any job.

So, okay, I had a LITTLE fun with this part of the story.

I was trying to think of the nastiest job I could possibly give poor abused Clarence, one that in normal circumstances would send him screaming into the night.

Sooo...

Don't know if he could carry a movie with that kind of vibe. "Main character energy" isn't really main character energy, if you get my drift. Might need an angle.

Illumination, give me a call. I might have some treatments for you to go over, just some stuff I've been workshopping off and on.
