#author, shenaniganizer, martial artist. Generally good guy. Still woke. Still supports DEI. Curses a lot. No longer looks good even in black and white photos.

Sci-Fi meets Now
Desert
Dystopia
Destiny🚀
In the near future, two scientists make a breakthrough that will either free humanity or forever enslave it.
A breathtaking romp through pre-dystopian times.

For the longest time, he thought he was a vampire because he couldn't see his #reflection.
It turned out he was just ugly and mirrors didn't want to show him.

If you want to prevent crime, get rid of desperation.

The tighter everything is #timed, the more likely it is to go wrong. That's why I always miss the best donuts in the morning.
Stupid traffic.

"Chimed, primed, and #timed."
"Could you just answer without trying to be cool?"
"Well, excuse me Mr. Professional Terrorist Man. I didn't realize planting a bomb was such a serious task."

"Ugh. Fine. Ready, sir."

"...so, as you see now, the inherent issue is now and always has been the bees."
"How is this #relevant?"
"Oh, it's not. I was just keeping you occupied while the trap was sprung. Goodbye, Mr. Bond."

Next time you ask yourself, "How is this #relevant?" you should realize it probably isn't. Most of life is just a bunch of stuff happening.

Behold: The new #Trumpcare plan!
Instead of healthcare for you, how about more tax cuts for billionaires? Won't that make you feel good?

An epic romp of invasion, body swapping, and cults on an ancient alien ship that might not be as abandoned as everyone thought!

Yes, there’s a human drive to reach for the stars, but what happens after we fulfill that goal?

Saying "Name three #specific reasons why you hate him" is the same as saying "You like that band? Name three songs". It's petty, controlling bullshit. I can hate someone without getting into the details.

My son said he'd do something "when pigs fly". I reminded him Air Force One is a thing and flies regularly.

"I'm hoping to get a little #action tonight," he said, leaning in until she felt his breath on her neck.
"You want action?" she replied.
"Damned right."
"Then fight me," she said as she kneed him in gut. "I'll give you all the action you can handle."

When your #options are 'everyone gets a puppy' or 'diarrhea forever', picking the diarrhea one doesn't make you look like a badass, it makes you look like a dumbass.

"Is this a case of 'failure is not an #option'?"
"Oh, no. Failure is definitely on the table. I mean, it's the three of us against an entire corp army. We're probably gonna get slaughtered."

The #EpsteinFiles that will be released won't be the real files. We'll get scrubbed, sanitized, and altered files.

The way news travels these days, the only way we'll know if Denver got nuked is if Fark goes down because CloudFlare no longer exists.

#Reality is a pretty ugly place, filled to the brim with ugly, mean-spirited assholes. That's why religious fantasy is so popular. It lets you think someone's on your side.
