As a graduate of the UC Irvine MFA in Creative Writing, I am embarrassed that the dufus representing the school thinks creativity comes from a plagiarism machine.

Swimming in Rob D’s wake but yes, Valley Heat is a riot and everyone should be listening to it. It’s Lodge 49 + Curb + Charles Portis + karate trophies.

In the early 1920s there was a sub-genre of action films where the climax involved a dog jumping from one plane to another. This is one of them.

When you dropped by were you hoping to find a photo of Agatha Christie dancing? Because I have you covered (I stole this from an old issue of @thetls.bsky.social )
A group of hellenic-robed young women, including Agatha Christie, dancing circa 1910.

I put this poster in Sunnyside. I'd found one at an antique store and could find nothing about its origins. Years later I was reading 1918 SF Examiners, as one does, and discovered that the 3rd Liberty Loan parade in SF sponsored a poster contest. This poster, by Mildred Moody, came in second.
WWI poster with a German Shepherd in a Red Cross outfit with the slogan Even a Dog Enlists Why Not You?

Waterman's slogan from 1922: "Writing: should be kind of like dancing or maybe skating."

In Texas it's a crime to own more than six dildos. This is the direct result of my attempt at staging my original play, 7 Dildos for 7 Brothers. The previews went extremely poorly
