ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

Fetterman is doing tremendous damage to the reputation of the Big Oaf community. Big Oafs did not ask for this kind of toxic representation. Now we must lumber back into the shadows, hiding under bridges wearing our most somber JNCO jean shorts, drowning in both our sorrows & voluminous denim

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

MLK Jr. said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people." Remember this.

When you have ADHD, it’s vital to have a consistent bedtime routine. Mine is two-and-a-half to three hours long and completely different every night.

In Fellowship of the Ring, when Frodo says “I will take it,” as Gandalf’s expression collapses, he whispers “fuuuck.”

In Fellowship of the Ring when Frodo says “I will take it,” the expression on Ian McKellan’s face says more than most actors do in their entire careers.

In 25 years of teaching creative writing, by far and away the two most common traits I've seen among successful writers are that they read avidly and that they support other writers enthusiastically.

It's hard to overstate what a catastrophe it would be for moviemaking and moviegoers if the Ellisons are allowed to acquire Warner Brothers and merge it with Paramount. I know that rooting for Comcast and/or Netflix sticks in a lot of throats here but those would be far better alternatives... >

I thought I was going to love Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere because of my deep knowledge and long personal experience with Bruce Springsteen’s music. I was wrong. I love it because of my deep knowledge and long personal experience with the creative process and major depressive disorder.

It's taken me three days to finish PLAY DIRTY and I'm still not finished... and I'm quite a big fan of Shane Black's stuff. It's possibly the Marky Mark factor, who's to say?

Talent isn't rare. Throw an apple & you hit someone with talent. Perseverance? rare. Work ethic? exceedingly rare; the willingness to grind. Being able to endure the scorn, rejection & privation a life in the arts dooms you to in the United States is unicorn-scarce. But talent? Talent is everywhere.
