Best thing to happen to my writing these past few months was the acquisition of an hour glass. A nice ritual of flipping it over to kick things off and if I’m in the zone, no alarm interrupts me when the hour is up :)

I actually think it’s very professional to sign off on emails with “Gay Salute” instead of “Best”

Well submitted to Warner Bros Writers program which was almost a breeze since I had my samples locked, essays written, resume and bio written, and then came the Intro Video. Please enjoy my camera roll. As you can see it went very well and fast and didn’t send me spiraling at all.

This is very important and I cannot stress enough how dishonest the signature collectors I’ve encountered for this have been. They will try REALLT hard to convince you it is a petition to RAISE the minimum wage, and it does the exact opposite.
If you’re in LA in a public space this month and someone tries to get you to sign a petition about wages and voting DO NOT SIGN IT.
this is businesses trying to repeal an ordinance that increases wages for workers in hospitality spaces ahead of the Super Bowl, World Cup, & Olympics.
Do not sign!

It is profoundly fucked up that in the United States, cops can open fire on crowds with “less-lethal” weapons.
People can be and have been killed by these rounds.
It’s like if the courts ruled it was okay to shoot us as long as it was “just a .22.”

Starting a first draft of a new pilot and to spice things up I have just shuffled my index cards and will be drawing scenes at random to write. Will report back on if it successfully makes me be less precious in a good way.

people often ask me; "Foone, you're an amateur physical media historian, when is it spelled disc, and when is it disk?"
Well it's simple:
Discs grow down from the ceiling, and disks grow up from the floor.

I'm listening to argument in Mahmoud v. Taylor, the conservative Christian attack on books with LGBTQ characters in elementary schools, and it is impossible to overstate how contemptuous Sam Alito is of the idea of treating LGBTQ people with respect. He is a rank homophobe. Nancy Mace in a robe.

"...I was half-expecting to find landlords testing the limits of the law. What I found was worse: a frenzied, almost immediate escalation of rents that defied both ethics and emergency protections."
Diary of a Spreadsheet | Chelsea Kirk
What scares them is something else: the realization spreading across Los Angeles that the private housing market isn’t just failing wildfire victims—it’s failing by design. That the inability to meet this moment isn’t the result of a few bad landlords, it’s a feature of a system built to extract. What landlords fear is that we might imagine something better: a world where housing isn’t a commodity at all, a world without landlords.

the harm rowling has done to the trans community both in the UK and abroad is (and has been for a while) irrefutable and irreparable, and has largely been allowed to be ignored due to fans of her work glossing over the things they find uncomfortable to contend with. i don't care. be uncomfortable.

i think most white americans who have never been Policed don’t realize that you are always already a criminal.
the second anyone with institutional power believes you to be, needs you to be, or wants you to be a criminal you are and always have been.

the last few days has been a reminder that people really want to believe that not only is there this real thing called a “criminal,” and that if they need to, anyone can just prove they aren’t one
do people not realize that the past four decades of US policing legislation PR and practice have made the allegation that someone is a “gang member” entirely subject to the whims of the state

Something I’m curious about but have no idea how it would be tracked down is quantifying the financial losses caused by halting and freezing various programs. Ex: Multi-year multi-million medical research invalidated from the time gap, from patients not having access to medicine anymore etc.
