I didn't get to post, but we were evacuated for the fire in Runyon Canyon, but the fire department did an amazing job fighting it with a lot of air support as well, and the evac order was lifted and we're back home safe now. Appreciate everyone checking in on us and offering us a place to stay.

Thanks for checking in, everyone. We are not near the fires. We're in Hollywood, so Pacific Palisades is about 20 miles away, but it is horrible for many people. Wishing the best to everyone affected. For reference, here are the three current big fires and the rough area where we live circled.

I'm thankful to have all of you in my life! Thanks for hanging out and transmutating this nonsense world into some fun and heart. Love to you all! (Except 3 of you, and you know who you are!!!!)

Looking for #filmsky critics, journalists, filmmakers, etc., who would want to play themselves in a no-budget fake documentary project I’m making. SHE HAD SUCH VIVID WAKING DREAMS is the story of a fictional sci-fi publisher from the mid-1980s. IMPORTANT- Read follow-up tweets for details. 1/4

SOLVENT crew reunion in LA! 🎥✨ Loved catching up with Jon Gries, Tom Gorai, Jasmin Hagendorfer, Michael J. Epstein (our neo-Nazi impersonator), and Sophia Cacciola (who wisely declined the role)!

Congrats to the A Hard Place team on a great premiere screening and a fun and singular movie. I helped with the writing on it, and it's always interesting to see where a movie finally lands once it's made. I think the genre fans will dig this one!

RIP sinead 🕊️ She was 100% right about the abuses of the Church at a time when few celebrities were speaking about it. also fuck Lorne Michaels and Joe Pesci and Bob Dylan and all the other men who criticized or refused to defend her

Sinead O'Connor ripping up a photo of the pope

66 It must be acknowledged what was done to us so we can forgive and be free. If the truth remains hidden then the brutality under which I grew up will continue for thousands of Irish children. And I must by any means necessary WITHOUT the use of violence prevent that happening because 1am a Christian.
66 The Catholic Church have controlled us by controlling education. Through their teachings on sexuality, marriage, birth control and abortion. And most spectacularly through the lies they taught us with their history books.

Two weeks after her infamous appearance on SNL, O'Connor became known more for the controversy than for her music.
O'Connor idolized Dylan and looked forward to performing his song, "I Believe in You" at his tribute concert. It was the culmination of years of admiring his work during her teen years in Ireland and now onstage at Madison Square Garden, she was thrilled to be on the ticket for the
evening.

"I feel like Bob Dylan is the one who should have come out and told his audience to let me sing," she wrote. "And I'm pissed that he didn't. So I glare at him in the wings as if he's my big brother who's just told my parents I skipped school. He stares back at me, baffled. He's looking all handsome in his white shirt and pants. It's the weirdest 30 seconds of my life."

Any reason for not shedding many domain registrations? Trying to get us down to essentials so I'm not paying $500+ a year to maintain names that barely get use. I want all of our films to be interconnected, so I'd rather use our prod co site for everything rather than have domains for each movie.
