Voices on airport PA systems used to be more authoritative. I don’t want to hear “Thi- calling um… Mart J-Jason? Um. Jasón? Mark… Jason??” echoing through a terminal. Be more confident, airport workers. You are gatekeepers to the skies!

I’m sad but proud that I got to write on the last ever episode of Strip Law. Enjoy some of the jokes I loved and savor the fruits of the Strip Law team’s stupid, beautiful labor. bsky.app/profile/perf...

Sometimes getting older feels like wading out into an ocean and I think I’ve dropped off the coastal shelf between “staying up late is fun/I don’t wanna go to bed” and “bedtime is drugs now”

Stockholders aren’t real. They’re just made up little guys. They don’t actually do anything.

I'm listening to a lot of self help books and one of them's about discovering your internal personalities, like the inner critic, the inner child or whatever. I haven't done the exercises because I know I've got some weird little guys in here. I don't want to meet all these fuckin Gollums

Calling slide shows "decks" is a survival mechanism. People only do it when they are under extreme stress.

I know I shouldn't get mad at the no interiority guy. There's other things I gotta be doing. I can't get derailed by the zero self-reflection guy. I can't imagine slapping his bald head and it makes a sound like a bongo

I saw the guy who says he doesn't self-reflect because nobody did that 400 years ago. I'll say it again: being that rich, brain-wise, is the same as getting kicked in the head by a horse.

I’ve decided to buy one of those cars that cruella de ville drives. Catch me driving the kind of car that has a front hood that looks like a wedge of cheese. I’m gonna die in a fender bender because the body of my car is made of fuckin cast iron skillet

My medical provider answers every question like “Thanks for asking! Yes, that is covered. Unfortunately, this means that it is not covered. Hope this clarifies!”

Read through my tweets from the first trump presidency and it was like watching a horror movie a second time. I already know all the jump scares but now I can spot the foreshadowing. also there's a damn clown in it!!

Man, I just started binging STRIP LAW on Netflix. So fun, hilarious, smart, weird, occasionally disgusting. Therefore perfect. Bravo @hellocullen.bsky.social, top notch work!

Me: I punish myself internally way more than a lot of people who definitely should be doing that even harder and more debilitatingly than me Brain: Punish yourself more to pick up the slack, and insodoing redeem yourself Me: And then I can stop the punishments? Brain: Ha. As a matter of fact, no.

That post yesterday that was like “Kamala Harris never signed up to be responsible for voters” is still ricocheting around the inside of my skull. Maybe humans were never meant to communicate with each other at this scale

Caffeine hits you in the dick with a sledgehammer if you haven’t had it in a long time. I had one cup of coffee and I feel like my heart is trying to Kill Bill one inch punch its way out. This is one of two things I understand the Mormon church’s stance on (#2 is that angels are Italian)

As coworkers, everyone on strip law was the kind of person who makes you a little sad you’ve reached your destination when you carpool. As writers/actors/artists, I was jealous of and intimidated by them. But now? They’re my friends :)

I had given up on writing for tv when Cullen called me and asked me to join his room. The only downside to him being my boss is I can’t reply “fuck you” or “I’m going to kill you” when he posts something so stupid it makes me angry anymore. Thank you for believing in me, Cullen. It means so much.

I was so lucky to write on Strip Law. I met the coolest people in the world working on this show, laughed so hard I felt high at least once a day, and was free to be as smart and as dumb as I could be. Cullen took every chance and ran a mile with every inch they gave him. Watch Strip Law or die!

Publishers of nonfiction maritime disaster audiobooks I’m begging you to differentiate them better I’m tired of finding a book called like, Empire of Icebergs with a ship on the cover, starting it, and very slowly realizing I’ve read it already

In a lot of the books I’ve read about arctic exploration the guys would get stuck up there for years and eventually they’d run out of tobacco and they’d start smoking tea leaves or the insulation of their shoes. And that’s something I really vibe with.

I deleted the hexagon sorting mobile game I got addicted to and started posting again within 24 hours. This must be what a bird that’s been in an oil spill feels like after they wash it and set it free but before it realizes its habitat is still pretty much fucked.
