Nitwits are actually hired for jobs programs over here too!
So much for this venerable jobs program for some of the world's most vulnerable inbred nitwits.
Eliza waits and waits for the return of her father, or at least his body. But as the years go by and no sign of the infamous and recognizable Cochran turns up, the hope turns to obsession, and eventually... to action. But as the number of casualties from the maintenance and infiltration of the Sleeping Wizards' Shrine build in number, can she find the truth on her own, let alone just get inside? Sleeping Wizards is heading toward 50% with over 400 backers! We'd love to have you add to this army! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ironspike/sleeping-wizards?ref=1sztuj
After her father disappeared in the line of duty clearing the Sleeping Wizards' shrine of monsters, Eliza has waited,
and waited,
and waited for her turn.
But with the dangers within, one must be chosen in order to enter.
Or just be good at breaking in🔦🪜

"[I]t seems impossible to write bourgeois psychological realism without at least accidentally committing science fiction."
A wonderful quote from this interview with @nmamatas.bsky.social :

This is a protest not just against gen AI training generally, but against the UK government's proposal to allow AI companies to train on copyright-protected work unless the author/artist opts out

Same people who jerk off to to Hegseth share "Make welfare moms eat MREs and you'll see them get a job tomorrow!" (And of course MREs are outrageously expensive.)

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

AI shills coming after McCarthy's prose is going to turn me into a character from one of McCarthy's novels.
"Human writing often includes some clunky phrases, like this passage from Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, caused by the author's aversion to punctuation: 'As well ask men what they think of stone.'"
This is the stupidest g.d. thing I have read all day.
1970s ad: GUESS WHO'S BUILDING NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS. The Shah of Iran is sitting on top of one of the largest reservoirs of oil in the world. Yet he's building two nuclear plants and planning two more to provide electricity for his country. He knows the oil is running out - and time with it. But he wouldn't build the plants now if he doubted their safety. He'd wait. As many Americans want to do. The Shah knows that nuclear energy is not only economical, it has enjoyed a remarkable 30-year safety record. A record that was good enough for the citizens of Plymouth, Massachusetts, too. They've approved their second nuclear plant by a vote of almost 4 to 1. Which shows you don't have to go as far as Iran for an endorsement of nuclear power. NUCLEAR ENERGY. TODAY'S ANSWER.
Fun ad from the 70s
Oh man, Seth Rollins, Sam Rollins, Beth Rollins, Areth Rollins, Cody Rolling, Robby Rollings, Ramblin' Joe Rollins...so many masked Rollinses!
Headline from the New York Times: Tatjana Wood, Award-Winning Comic Book Colorist, Dies at 99. She was part of the acclaimed creative teams on comic book series for DC Comics, including Swamp Thing, which she called Shvampy in her German accent.
Only those of you who are comics nerds like me are going to recognize this name, but longtime colorist Tatjana Wood has apparently passed at age 99.
Since we're doing "saying writers should read is gatekeeping" again, I'll tell the tale of my friend whose dad wrote a book and truly believed it was going to be hailed as the best book of all time...bc he'd only read 2 novels in his life & was therefore "free from influence."
Spoiler: it was not!
And almost every beginning writer makes the same sort of editors and commits the same sort of infelicities. Clearly, writing is a *developmental* practice!
Good thing no one anywhere ever said you can "only" be a writer/filmmaker if you read/watch movies! The advice is to frequently and thoughtfully engage with your art form of choice. If that upsets someone, too bad? People are also upset that vaccines are real and I don't care about them either
And filmmaking is almost necessarily collaborative! You can't get away from someone on set or in the editing chair somehow having watched a lot of movies!
