You know what would be cool? If one, even one, “cancelled“ white guy actually experienced long lasting consequences. Just like, ever. Not “sit and wait a year or so” and then go right back to it, but now grabbing extra money by whining you were “cancelled”. It would be so cool. So. Cool.

Not the Ben Reilly comic I would pitch to Marvel, but nevertheless a Ben Reilly comic that we need.

I could always use a kind word—doubly so since I started working on the novel again.

Between LIVE THROUGH THIS and CELEBRITY SKIN, I've always gravitated towards the latter. It's definitely more polished, more pop (intentionally so, I imagine). These last few years though, the former has really grown on me, especially when I have the time to just sit and enjoy it.

Meanwhile, many of the women harmed had their careers and aspirations derailed. But it's supposedly unfair for him not to be given a second chance.

I am deeply disappointed in Image for choosing to publish new comics from Ellis without him doing that work, when he previously abused his position as a popular comics writer to do what he did.

With the conversations happening here today, I'm thinking about how Ellis gets to have a "second chance" without doing any of the work to change or even meaningfully apologise to the scores of women he harmed and manipulated. All he had to do was wait a while.

“but Alex you have to separate the art from the artist” 1. this is a luxury only afforded to the in-group of artists who benefit from the patriarchy; I reject this on first principles 2. also the art is bad

While bail was being processed, I was handcuffed and briefly shackled, and made to wait in a lock-up cell with a pastel pink door and bars (because it was the women's lock-up, get it?) I've written about this experience here: www.wethecitizens.net/a-little-tim...

My charge under the Public Order Act has to do with participating in group photos outside the State Courts in Feb 2025. The authorities say this is an illegal assembly in a prohibited area. Others have been charged, too. The judge imposed bail of S$5,000 surety. My passport had to be surrendered.

I wore this shirt to the State Courts for my court mention for one count of "taking part in a public assembly within a prohibited area". Security wouldn't let me into the building wearing it. I ultimately took it off by the entrance and turned it inside out before I was allowed in.

Wrote close to a thousand words today. Pretty happy with it, but I can already feel doubt creeping in. The freelance work might be good for me beyond earning more cash. Maybe it'll take my mind off the book long enough that I'll come back to it with fresh, hopefully more forgiving eyes.

Back to Singapore today. This has been a really great work trip and, honestly, probably the change in scenery I needed after the last few months. That said, I cannot wait to kiss my wife and cat again.

Shoot tonight that'll last from around 4pm till 6am tomorrow morning. Probably won't work on the book today 'cause I'm buzzing with excitement, but need to try and get more sleep. Excitement isn't gonna power me through more than twelve hours.

I'm rereading what I've written so far, making small edits along the way. I don't know if I'm gonna do much beyond that, at least today. But it has been a good reminder that, goddamn, I'm a pretty great writer.

I'm travelling for work this week and have a free day during this trip. I'm planning to spend it working on my novel again for the first time in ages. I'm gonna try to be kind to myself no matter how much I get done—or don't get done—but I'm genuinely hoping that this gets some momentum going.

Laws in Singapore feel like they're getting stricter about how you show support for Palestine, but I'm thinking (hoping, really), "Stop killing children," is a statement I can say publicly without getting into any legal trouble. So, thanks for the inspiration, Dave Matthews.
