A while ago I realized that as an author, I had free will with my world building, and I didn’t have to limit myself with how I got that done.
So, in service of that, here’s some fun lore for Tiger & The Viper, stylized like a music magazine think piece.

I am beyond thrilled to announce that Bloomsbury has acquired my YA nonfiction book A DOZEN DYSTOPIAS AND HOW TO DODGE THEM, about the real science behind fictional dystopian scenarios. This is an absolute dream project.

December for artists really looks like
“Hey man, sorry I ghosted all of your calls and texts this month. I’ve been working on making you a present that will inevitably be shipped late.”

So, after watching the Reze Arc movie, I would like to invite Makima in a healthy round of “go fuck yourself”.

It’s been a hard week, so this is how it feels when someone’s uncle on YouTube posts a recap of Love Is Blind

Every day I see an infographic that’s like “Oxygen Is Now Owned By SludgeCorp: How To Keep Breathing Without Letting It Drain Your Vital Essence“ and then I have to spend an hour of my precious life figuring out if it’s worth it to stop breathing

Eventually I'm going to make it myself but in the meantime does anyone have any animated shows/movies that are Daria-adjacent?
I've met plenty of women who love Daria but dont know what else to recommend which is probably why I should just animate IzzynJean soon..

Impeach, convict, remove.
And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will.

It feels like the longer you spend not masking, the harder it is to get back on the train in certain situations.
I literally tell my brain “your face should be making a genuine, pleasant smile so you don’t creep them out with a flat affect” and instead some sort of facies mortis comes out instead

Cuts to SNAP and Social Security are supposedly inevitable but he’s…*checks notes* a ruthless, iron-clad businessman who gets it done?
And somehow the Dems are to blame for standing in his way? Do the Republicans not have a majority in the House, Senate and Supreme Court? What you mean?

Maybe it’s my terrible memory, but I weirdly remember Halo being a series about Master Chief putting aside his differences with an alien race to ultimately survive against an existential threat coming for everyone.
Gamestop’s marketing team lost their minds snorted a line of coke and decided to use Donald Trump and the white house to push Halo combat evolved and ICE like what is even happening are we in a simulation why are video games suddenly the vehicle for political messaging where’s 343
