So nice to have two degrees and years of professional writing experience, and now every job posting wants an AI babysitter.

I’ve been asked why I write such absurd comedies — dude, I live in Texas. Very little here makes sense. Just existing here is an exercise in absurdism.

My website update is live and it might be one of the most ME things I've ever made. Come see what's going on in my brain -- there are inciting incidents, cryptids, and a surprising number of puppets. Nerdy disclaimer: I built this thing from scratch. It's bespoke art and code. avalovehanna.com

Anyone else find it suuuuper suspicious that the extra insane posts, the firing of top military officials, and these “civilization ending” threats and deadline are all happening during his monthly transfusions, while Congress is on vacation, and the VP is a 14 hour plane ride away?

The Supreme Court did not strike down conversion therapy bans today. Not nationwide. Not in Colorado. Not anywhere. Here's what actually happened in Chiles v. Salazar—and why the coverage you're seeing serves the conservative legal movement more than it serves you.

Just your friendly neighborhood comedy writer/poetry major posting Fire and Ice by Robert Frost again for no particular reason.
Fire and Ive by Robert Frost

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

We'd say the hardest part of having a comedy fiction podcast during a fascist takeover of your country is the fascism. Hands down. Remembering to post about new episodes is also a pain, but the fascism is way worse. storiesfound.com/micro-histor... #AudioDramaSunday #AudioDrama #ComedyFiction

Just an FYI. If you’re a liberal white person cheering on ICE taking someone away and posting a clearly photoshopped image of a Latino man wearing a fake “Latinos for Trump” shirt as he’s being hauled off — you’re racist AF. There is no situation in which this behavior is okay.

Could the DNC be more out of touch?? You want my money? Do something. Stop voting for his nominees. Get on every news and social media channel and denounce his actions. Even if you can’t stop him, SAY SOMETHING. Everyone will be looking?? Oh, trust, we’re watching you do nothing right now.

Why did I assume that Mr. Toad was the same Toad as Frog and Toad?? Like, he's calmly eating cookies with his boyfriend one minute and racing a stolen car at high speeds through the English countryside the next and my brain was like, "Yep, that tracks. Same guy."

I have a feeling that beneath the little halo on your noble head There lies a thought or two the devil might be interested to know You're like the finish of a novel that I'll finally have to take to bed You fascinate me
Image 1/5: An illustration of Crowley & Aziraphale from the show Good Omens. Aziraphale is contentedly sitting on a tufted chair: one leg crossed, reading a book, scotch in hand. Crowley looms, looking down at him with INTENT behind his eyes. He’s made quite a dent in his scotch. Aziraphale is completely oblivious.

Caption: I have a feeling that beneath the little halo on your noble head (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)Image 2/5: Crowley leans over Aziraphale, his knee on the chair as he sets his scotch aside. Aziraphale looks up and notices him for the first time as he idly turns a page.

Caption: There lies a thought or two the devil might be interested to know (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)Image 3/5: Crowley is fully straddling Aziraphale in his chair now, calmly taking off his reading glasses and setting aside his book for him. Aziraphale looks up at Crowley, curious, no longer distracted. He goes to set his drink down.

Caption: You’re like the finish of a novel that I’ll finally have to take to bed (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)Image 4/5: Crowley leans in to cup Aziraphale’s face, his thumb between his lips. Aziraphale is flustered, blushed. The scotch is dropped to the floor and long forgotten as he tries to figure out where to put his hands.

Caption: You Fascinate Me (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)
