She warned Deters repeatedly not to commit talk of money or payments to text. 'Eric, I really wish you would stop papering all these things,' she wrote in one exchange."

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 4hTechnically, the embargo was on a scientific paper about Jonathan, but, come on. People LOVE ancient, giant tortoise. 110

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 5hOk, if you're a paying tenant I *guess* you can make some bullshit argument that rat-policing duties fall under the landlord's obligations. Especially in California. Whatever. 130

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 5hThis is all displaced teen angst. I was a D&D nerd in high school, none of you will be surprised to hear, and far more likely to be receiving noogies than distributing them. Except where my younger brothers were concerned.

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 9hMy mom’s ancient dog is here however, and she did not even notice. Just wandered in from the next room after the rat was gone, like, ‘sup? Great work, dog. 150
Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 9hI’m staying at my mom’s house and the rats live in the hedge on her back fence. I hear them at night. She’s in Ashland this week and I am not going to tell her about the rat-in-the-kitchen incident. 130

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 06/10/2026As someone who has done a fair amount of crisis work (albeit corporate, not personal publicist stuff), I think it's funny that these crisis operators keep getting aired out.

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 06/10/2026It looked amazing. I still remember watching it on broadcast in high school. A complete fever dream of a show. I don't think you could do anything now that would be as relatively surreal compared to our already deranged reality. But I invite somebody to prove me wrong. 010

Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The production values were like, "what if Dr. Who, but no money at all." However, the TV series did give us the concept of "blipverts," compressed TV ads that made people's heads explode. 110
Last Will and Testament Moss @williammoss.bsky.social · 06/10/2026"According to his creators, Max's personality was meant to be a satirical exaggeration of the worst tendencies of American television hosts in the 1980s who wanted to appeal to youth culture, yet were not a part of it." 120
