Hiya! I'm Matt, but on the internet I'm "d.notive"

The main thing you're going to know me for (if anything) is my music! I was an early darling of the #Synthwave thing so I'm an 80's nut.

I'm also a furry. I made a fursuit. My fursona's name is "Roland" like the synth company.

I need you to know that I'm the sort of person who will watch a popular piece of media, think to myself "I could write a better TV show than THIS" and instead of bitching about it online will just actually sit down and write a better TV show for fun.
Screenwriting is arguably the most bittersweet medium I work in.

I love writing, and as a "film person" it's always come extremely naturally to me (and I like to think I'm pretty good at it?)

... but, the "bitter" part is always knowing that very little of it will probably ever get read or made.

Magic is real. Through music you can influence the mental state of others and induce them to move their bodies. You can help people fall in love or create visions of Heaven and Hell. All this only through the manipulation of vibrations in the air.

Musicians are sorcerers.

Did you know that you can be the against the development & usage of nuclear weapons while also still advocating for the advancement of nuclear power?

Like, actually "generative AI is evil but using the same core technology to detect cancer is not" is a hair you are 100% allowed to split.
We could save soooo many lives but people are so caught up in their reactionary moral panic nonsense

There needs to be a version of "do it scared" for writers that equates to "write it, even if you worry you're not good enough to write it"

My only complaint so far is that you've had a whole gaggle of alt/goth kids and not a SINGLE one listens to Depeche Mode??

Don't tell me "Black Celebration" wouldn't go hard as hell as a big sweeping orchestral arrangement (i.e. what they did to Journey last season.)
Okay yeah this might be my favorite batch of Stranger Things episodes in a long while.

The alpha wolf concept was debunked by the very guy who coined it because he realized that wolves in the wild are extremely communal and defer to parents for guidance. The “alpha” behavior was observed in captivity and was a terrified and violent male lashing out to feel some sort of control.
idiot guy: i'm like the wolf i'm stalking my prey alone through the forest and being raw as fuck even if i'm in a group i'm the alpha
actual wolf: i love my friends so much!!! i love to romp and kiss my bros and work together as a family <3 awooo etc etc have you seen the puppies oh my god come see

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

Oh cool apparently there was an ICE raid 3 blocks from my house this morning and I'm just finding out about it now. 😑

I really do not like asking for financial help, but I think it's necessary now. I need to move out of Indiana and lack the employment locally to make that happen. I have about $400, but GFM won't let me add that toward the goal. If you can help, I would appreciate it www.gofundme.com/f/Urgent-Hel...

Adding:

These are two perfectly valid platitudes that apply under radically different circumstances.

If you're constantly burnt out being around friends, "don't change yourself" is what you lean on

If you're constantly alone and miserable then it's time to reckon with how challenging you might be
there's the perennial "don't change yourself for other people's expectations or comforts" which is of course the way to be

but you gotta balance it out with "if you are too challenging to be around then no one will want to be around you"

Post a movie that takes place where you're from.

Fun fact: The ice arena they used in the third Mighty Ducks movie is where I had my highschool commencement ceremony. (It has since been torn down.)
