Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.
I transferred from Los Angeles, your school has no gymnastics team, this is a last resort! 👏

I don't think I've been annoying enough about it lately, but friendly reminder I would do unspeakable things to write an official Buffy comic.

Love to watch a movie that had no real plot or character development and you get to the end like oh wait that's it?? And I spent the whole time waiting for two people to make out who never did, but absolutely should have.

This is something about "AI" that I have a hard time putting into words, but creators just love the WORK. It's just fun. Even when it's hard. All the thinking, and all the detail work, and all the struggle, it makes the things we make, I don't know... have weight and value for us.
If the writer’s eyes light up when asked, “why did the character do that?” then it’s real.

Lauren is a gem of a human being and one of the most thoughtful editors I've had the pleasure of working with. She was integral to bringing Abuzz to life. I'm sad she won't be with Mad Cave any longer.
Publishers, do not sleep on reaching out to her!

Yesterday was my last day with Mad Cave Studios. I'm so grateful for the opportunities the last 3.5 years have brought me and the books these amazing creators produced during that time. I would really love to keep in touch and am open to new editorial roles. 💖

you think you need to leave intelligent, thoughtful comments? lmao no
“loved it!” is all you need to say. blurt that out on Steam, YouTube, Amazon for whatever game, book, or video caught your fancy
The algorithm is all consuming but you can help cool people by just commenting “👍🏼”’ so do it

PRO TIP
If you have YouTubers you like and follow and watch their videos a lot
leave innane/positive comments on their videos. The algo is all fucked up for YT creators and a lot of videos get sent to the void for whatever reason.
I hate doing it, but I've been trying to do it.

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Hmmm. Not sure what kind of omen it is that I picked up a coffee and Wham's Last Christmas was playing, then went for a walk on the beach and found a friggin dead manta carcass half eaten in the sands.

Video games don't work like that, movies don't work like that, TV doesn't work like that (at least not in the same way, residuals work differently there). But books/comics? If you pirate a book you are straight up taking money out of the author/artist's pocket, every time.
