Had a nightmare once where I was a lowly producer for a dating reality show but it was actually a psychological experiment where all the single men were sociopaths. I had to interview them for “confessionals”while knowing they were sociopaths and honestly that's what modern dating feels like.

Party Idea 🎉
Everyone dresses up and I've written complicated drama plots/characters inspired by Real Housewives 💎 No one knows who they are and who they hate until they get together at the party. 🔍 And we have to figure out which character is going to jail for a rich person crime.

Not everyone dreams of kids, suburbs, and husbands. Some of us dream of a crumbling Victorian manor atop a cliff that we wander at night in our full-length dressing gown, candelabra flickering in hand, and trying to find the locked door that matches the mysterious key we inherited. Both are valid.

I eat salads because I'm lazy, not because I'm healthy! I eat those vegetables so my dumb idiot body doesn't cave in on itself and then I can cram a bunch of gushers and Mountain Dew down my gullet.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.
