Olga has done so much to help my friends. It’s baffling. But they truly could use all the help they can get because recovery is going to take years. If you’re looking for ways to help a family who lost everything in the LA fires, consider my writing partner and his wonderful family. #FYC

The CATS cg technology is just sitting there. What’s stopping us from using it for a courtroom drama or a sexy Naval thriller?

Time for my annual “I don’t have an active deadline tomorrow, I’d love to play a video game” itch. What are your picks for ps4 (cause I only play once a year)? Should I just finish Horizon Forbidden West? I bought God of War last year during the it h but haven’t played yet. What else?

“Incorporating AI” should never exit the lips of a union. Placing the onus on the writer to fight against such requirements will result in said writer not getting the job. We can do better & must. WGA fought against bad terms, so can you. I’m a member of both unions & will strike again if need be.

No shade to therapy, but whoever came up with “everyone should go to therapy” is a marketing genius. If you think people don’t need it, you’re a bad person. Wow. Even religion doesn’t get this kind of broad acceptance. I even qualified this whole dumb thought so you wouldn’t think I’m bad!

Another issue I have with AI is that capital I and lowercase L look the same so anytime someone mentions someone named “AL” my first thought is someone has made an AI version of Al Pacino, Al Gore, Al Roker, Weird Al Yankovic. This is a real problem I want people to start taking seriously!

Listen, I’m excited to see my hometown in this show. But if they don’t chug a bottle of Heinz ketchup and call God a jagoff for taking a trauma patient’s life within the first ten minutes, I’m out! youtu.be/_n0cHDflMcE

What’s the shortest pitch you’ve ever sold? Every pitch I’ve sold is 20-25mins, but I always wish they were 5mins shorter. What do you think is essential and what do you leave out?
