Not mine. Stole it from somewhere.

It's hell, but best as I can tell James is in a much worse prison in which he's interviewed all hours of the day about what is and is not canon in the DCU. I wonder if they let him sleep.

I've reset my Instagram algorithm multiple times now but within 2 days it always goes back to showing me everything James Gunn says about anything.

Today Tony Fitzpatrick passed.

I'm only now learning he had a fairly storied career, but the only thing I knew him for was my favourite show Patriot. Here he plays Jack Birdbath, a disgraced ex-cop turned security guard who blackmails a spy.

Watch this clip. Celebrate this incredible man with me.

Another absolute banger of a page from Sam.

New Page day!

A full pager that's red as hell, showing the world outside the prison of Quod-Quell.

What viewers don't see is the many pieces of paper where I've tried to sketch out a rough map of the planet's orbit so these kinda views are (hopefully!) consistent.

🔴 iteatsplanets.com/page/55 🔴

Two prisoners stand at the edge of a metal walkway of a large industrial structure, one over the railing upon the precipice. Beyond them the ocean meets the horizon, stained by a blood red horizon. Behind the clouds, a dark sky is host to the red tinged silhouettes of a nearby gas giant, its rings and a moon with artificial lights upon its surface.

The prisoner on the precipice says "Nobody gets out."

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

This ad I keep getting is just IP theft from front to back. Surely this isn't legal, right? Ain't no way this stupid app got permission from LEGO and Marvel. Are all the lawyers sleeping?

The music here was a happy accident. Soft Power by Tropical Fuck Storm. It's just what I had playing when I took this recording.

In my experience, nerve pain moves a lot. It dances across your body like electricity and makes you feel weak and even sick. It's incredibly inconsistent as to what agitates it and what soothes it, which is maddening. Get it looked at. I didn't, and now this is my life for the next couple of months.

My advice to anyone who habitually suffers back/shoulder/arm pain: learn the difference between muscle pain and nerve pain, and if you think you have the latter, get that shit checked out. Better you talk to a doctor/PT while it's manageable rather than when it suddenly becomes hell one day.

Today is the first time in over a week that I've felt normal and able. It's still obvious that the pinched nerve is there, and that I need the medication and physiotherapy to make these good days possible, but damn it's good to feel normal again. It's good to be reminded that this is possible.

Gary J Kings @garyjkings.bsky.social · 13d

I got a real "pinched nerve" vibe about me lately, on account of the pinched nerve in my neck.

@laurella.bsky.social is fantastic, you'd do well to chat to her if she puts in an application. I've worked with her on multiple shipped projects and she's an absolute wizard of problem solving.
