Revisiting old photos and wondering if the owners of this amazingly titled sideshow attraction would sue me if I stole the name for a podcast about retconned or retired Star Wars stories / characters (a la '70s Marvel Comics' Jabba the Hutt)

I’ve reported on homelessness for years and met many, many people who have found themselves in awful situations
Every single one of them had more decency and integrity than this privileged plutocrat

Never too late to start watching ScaRe
Hey we all need some escapism right now. Might I suggest this batshit adult animated sci-fi show I wrote for - Scavengers Reign on Max and Netflix. It has an insane 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Very proud of it.

Spent the day in the ER with an injured three year old, and the realisation that you can't always protect them from pain or sadness is crushing. Like, just crushing. The kid was a trooper though, g-d bless 'im

Scavengers Reign is a wondrous thing. There are plenty of shows I enjoy, but not many that I'd say I'm simply happy that they exist
