I’m glad I took my current job in 2012 rather than becoming a paramedic, like I was planning. As of 2016 most of my hometown became people I would refuse to help and I would have had to quit my job.

IT’S PROBABLY A FACT!

A young woman with a strong resemblance to the original face of WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt (pre-Michael Jackson nose), has been discovered in an all-girl porn film set in the 1950s. Despite zero proof it’s her, the producers have retitled the film “Leavitt To Beaver.”

In Wisconsin, it is illegal to eat summer sausage out of season. They have so many kinds of sausage it is seen as an inexcusable crime. If you’re caught eating summer sausage in Spring, Winter, or Fall, they will revoke your sausage privileges. And you really don’t want that.

Terry, the dog who played Toto in The Wizard Of Oz, created tension on the set by staying in character at all times and insisting on only being addressed as “Toto”. The crew and other actors found her so arrogant and pretentious that they had her put to sleep after filming.

The word “cinema” comes from a much older diversion people used for entertainment before movies were invented. Cinema is a shortened version of “cinnamon enema” and it was all the rage in Victorian London bath houses.

Shit. I’m always late with these things.

Big weekend. Book two, The Iron Abyssus, is in the bag. Good fixes on my opening to book three, Purification. (I shouldn’t call it a prologue. That’s not really what it is.) Started the planning and outlining stages of The Child Eater. It’s going to be absolutely gruesome.

The last time I saw such moving and patriotic tributes such as the Right’s honoring of Charlie Kirk was when I witnessed the changing of the guard at The Tomb of the Unknown Podcaster.

Killing Charlie Kirk lends him credibility that he just didn’t have. As if his ideas were correct and he had to be silenced. Don’t forget the last question he answered. How many trans mass shooters have there been? His answer - too many. Glib and disingenuous.

And they clapped like barking seals.

I’ve been told by eighteen different people now, in person or through email/social media, that I am their favorite author. It’s an awesome compliment and I am floored by it every time, but I don’t really know how to handle it. I’m not used to be in anyone’s favorite anything.

Due to the Mandela Effect there are people who believe that I have been posting a daily feature on social media called “IT’S PROBABLY A FACT!,” but this is not true. It never happened. They are confused and simply misremembering the old PSA ads for The More You Know.
