The Story "Jivarro Death" in Two Fisted Tales #19 is a rip off of Jack London's "Lost Face." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicham....

A man is dragged into the jungle by Jivarro tribesmen more frightened of torture than death.

The least conscious of us are trying to codify consciousness.

It's a plagiarism machine that always agrees with you. Literally, the worst kind of "writer" in the world.

Consciousness = Patterns (Wavelengths are patterns) Prediction is the fruit of repetition. *Locked in a pattern is frozen in time. (Patterns are anti-time.) --Weird stuff in my notes

This is about the same time the pulp magazines went full on sensational, and is probably a reaction to that. A lot of top shelf pulps had to plug thier "wholesome" stories.

There are mushrooms sprouting outside my window more conscious than the president.

Obviously, I didn't plan for that.

My plan is to not "maxx" anything.

Norbert Davis' Doan and Carstairs would have been great screwball comedies. His detectives were always incredibly sneaky or lucky. Doan was lucky he had a dog more civilized than he was.

Cover of The Mouse in the Mountain portrays a man and a Great Dane dog hiding behind a pueblo wall as a woman and others run by in an orange sky background. Oh, Murderer Mine portrays women running out of a hair salon as a Great Dane stands in the foreground.

I went camping and was disconnected from the world for three days. It was great. The second I hit civilization I was expected to have a cell phone. Weird feeling.

Are Neutrinos the Key to Communicating With Aliens?

While the odds are slim, neutrino technology may be the best — and perhaps only — way to communicate with extraterrestrial civilizations.

Joyfully, because AI is down. I've got a short humorous piece to write, and AI isn't funny. It takes a little curiosity to be humorous.

Because I really don't want to do it half-ass, either. I work better when I'm not tired and distracted.

I have a list of things to do, I just don't feel like doing them.

MSM stopped covering real news the day networks stopped writing off the news department decades ago, so never.

His arm fell off, but they didn't want to have to undress the mannequin to put it back, which is pretty spot on for MAGA. Unintentional modern art.

No, in this one the dog is possessed and tries to get kids to stick their hand in a lawnmower and stuff. Another that comes to mind (but not horror) is "Pray for the Wildcats" w/ Shatner and Andy Griffith as weekend bikers. Lotsa ABC movies of the week on YouTube, lots with Darren McGavin.
