The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

This is great advice!
Unsolicited writing advice, no. 362101:
To make a character really come to life, you have to know how your story changes them. If your main character goes through the story and comes out completely unchanged, then you might need to reassess things.

It's nearly impossible to describe their completely unhinged plans for the country without sounding completely unhinged.

We’re officially in full airport mode all the time now: everything is crazy expensive, sweatpants are acceptable at all times, nobody’s judging anyone for drinking more than they usually do, and we’re all just out here buying books and coffee to deal with the stress

It was dark. Buildings were on fire as hoards of people crowded the one road out. Somehow, I lost control of my car, gripping the wheel as it ejected off a bouldery cliff. As I plunged into the abyss, I peeled my eyes open. And then it hits, right in my gut… another day in 2025. “Fuck.”

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

I'm not surprised by trump's disgustingly negative attitude about disabled people.

It's who he is, and who he's always been.

This should have been the end.

In light of the demise of DEIA, what are your predictions for both publishing and film? How do you think it will impact writers rooms, subject matter, representation, etc.? #writingq #scriptsky+ #scriptsky #writingcommunity #booksky
