Re-doing my publications list because there's a couple new ones, and because so many places I've been published in have shuttered! You should read the ones that still exist! Some of them are pretty good!

You need to be Bad Bad Leroy Brown-maxxing. You need to have a thirty-two gun in your pocket for fun and a razor in your shoe

Now seems like the ideal time to start shopping around my movie “The Shemp Detective” where a bumbling British police officer solves a murder with the help of Shemp Howard

I liked it, Director Bong
Variety@Variety

Bong Joon Ho says "sh*t on me if you didn't like" #Mickey17, not the studio. "Director’s final cut was part of my contract and everyone at the studio and at my agency tried their best to protect me. Of course, during post production, there was lots of discussions and a lot of opinions going back and forth, but it wasn’t ever like someone was forcing something on me or giving me pressure. And so luckily, all my films have been released as my director’s final cut, even a movie as big as 'Mickey 17,' and all the good parts of that film and all the bad parts of that film came from me. I take full responsibility. So shit on me if you didn’t like it!" variety.com/2026/film/glob…

Always tentative faith in humanity completely set to 0 after this morning’s drive to work. The most selfish people on the planet are currently driving in the suburbs of DC. Thomas Hobbes vindicated forever

Paul Newman was one of those rare actors who was just as hot in his later roles as he was in his first. I am speaking of course of the character of Doc Hudson in the Disney-Pixar animated feature C-

New experience today of a kid making a paper “phone” and deciding what apps she was going to “download” (draw) after it “updated”

Filmmakers should never deviate from the source material when adapting a book. They should invent no new scenes, cast no actors, and in fact just project the text of the book onto the screen for people to read

Me: “Do you want some more?” The strange count whose move to London I have been hired to oversee: “No. I never drink…wine” Me, slamming my glass down: “Man, what is your fucking problem!”

Saw someone talking about the Odyssey referring to “the spirit of the myth” and while I’m not a classicist, I am unconvinced that the spirit of the myth is not supposed to be precisely “fuck yeah”
