We shot this the third day of Maniac, and between takes Emma told me the “co” in my “co-showrunner” meant that I was Mom.

There’s an emptiness at the center of the old idea that will destroy it.

I think the internet is going to destroy capitalism. But I think it’ll take awhile. And it won’t seem like that’s a good prediction, as the linear story plays out.

Loneliness is the catastrophe of the world, but there are a couple thousand people who will strip mine you of life’s most boring capital, for the margin.

Or: your collage is chaos to anyone but you. But you still have to make it. It has tremendous meaning; it’s you.

Collage is the form that actually makes most sense to me, and yet I somehow find it to be the most boring.

I’m a hoarder of digital moments that mean nothing to anyone but me.

I’m also afraid of my phone continuing to exist after I don’t.

I’m concerned the afterlife will be impacted by the cloud. Or is it.

This Maniac video we made for the WGA Awards that they didn’t play.

Or this .gif of one of my favorite line readings from one of the most delightful, brilliant actors I’ve ever worked with.

I had so much media I loved dappled on twitter/x over the years. I don’t why it feels good to me for those things to exist not just on my phone, but as my kid plays soccer I’m gonna just make a museum of digital things I love. For example, this boomerang that captures the souls of my son and father.

I am feeling one year away from madness, with the election. Coincidentally, I’ve been reading about this thing called a kleroterian, the bingo/plinko machine ancient Athenians built in order to randomly select the political offices of the city every year.

2/3 of my children just left for summer camp for two weeks… hoping to write one novel per day

As an energy reset here’s my son being thrown off the front of a raft in Idaho two years ago.
