#Amazon having drivers deliver in this weather is straight up negligence.

Half the roads aren't even plowed yet. Dude had to park his van at the top of the street and walk packages down over ice.

The packages can wait a day it isn't that important.

The place we need to get people to, on both sides of the Atlantic, is immigration enforcement is not a priority. It should rank far below littering on our priorities as a society. We're talking about paperwork here.

Anyone who is part of the federal government who is not doing everything in their power to stop this administration, regardless of the assumed cost to normalcy or career, is a coward and a collaborator.

Welcome to the Ordinarium.

We have a No.2 pencil, Number Two, mind you.
A bic pen, ball point.
One red solo cup.
Pay special attention to the off-beige carpet.

The over exaggerated, big reaction twitch streamer/Youtuber... thing, is a lot easier to understand if you think about it through the lens of 90's wrestling and crowd work but applied to video games.

These guys are just Hulk Hogan, but for the 2010's.

Basically, they're Carnies.

Nothing like an eleventh hour book sale to make my year.
Hope whoever bought their book today enjoys it!

How long do you think, till we see Seven Samurai remade with Jedi, under the current Disney regime?

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

If you're struggling to sound like a Star Wars alien, just do the accent and name cheeses.

Gouda feta provolone Solo, mozzarella cheddar brie.

Look, I am very small potatoes as an author. I make too little in royalties to live off them. But I can tell you the reason I got to write my 2nd book was bc the sales of the 1st were very good. That's what else you're eating into by pirating, our ability to keep writing what you claim to love.

Red Dead 3 should be Hosiah (player) building the gang with Dutch and Arthur, John joining in Act 1.

Jack's story should pick up with prohibition in Chicago Noire.

Whoever decided the Bass Clef should be down shifted one letter should be tortured in a most unfathomable hell for all eternity.

Buckleshoe would be a great name for a Hobbit.

You could reskin chess to be about finding partners at a dance, the different units different types of dancers, and it works just as well.

Copperblood would make a good slur in #DnD for poor people.

Blood tastes/smells like copper.
Copper is the cheapest currency.
Makes sense to me.

That's my thought for today.

Amidst all this #Subnautica drama, as insane as it sounds I think it would be really cool to see #Metroid lean in that direction.

Exploring alien ruins while struggling to survive a hostile alien world, investigating the mystery of what's really going on.

A new map for the wall. Portsmouth is the second largest city in Atterley, with the largest shipworks on the island.
