A very strange man who writes things. VFS alum (Writing for TV and Film program), thinker, philosopher, comedy writer, academically gifted, socially retarded, lover of long lists of adjectives, and the only rationalist materialist mystic poet in the world.

Scorpio season!

Make someone who wronged you two decades ago into a nightmarish villain in a short story.

Start writing an entire novel simply to spite an old English teacher.

Kill some darlings that were just minding their own business.

Your time is now. ♏️

Every generation thinks they had it the hardest but us millennials had to survive the Ska wars. But sure, drinking from the hose was cool too or whatever

That's stupid even by right winger standards.

On the other hand, you can turn a regular sized candy bar into five fun sized ones with just a sharp knife and wrapping paper.

Yes Ireland has election security. We tie the pencils to the voting booth with string.

Not to be a corny doomer but what really weighs on me is that for all that red white and blue bullshit about freedom I heard bellowed out of everything my whole life, that's something you actually have to want and protect, and in the aggregate we just don't seem to

if your family has ever reached a point where you just sort of let your senile grandpa yammer to himself while you carry on your own separate conversation, that’s the vibe in Canada right now

We're hosting two high schoolers from Shimoda, Japan, and they are getting the full USA teen experience. Hamburgers, KPop Demon Hunters, the blow-up mattress that won't stay inflated.

It just occurred to me how *cripplingly humiliating* it would be for any Canadian politician to bring up religion in any but the most vague terms on the campaign trail.

I mean, I am cringing so hard just from imagining it. People would be embarrassed and offended.

I am willing to give them a lot of leeway on this.

After all, they are sincerely trying to share what has worked for them. And as long as they are just sharing their opinions, I am more than fine with that.

Just keep it out of the damned legislature.

I think one of the things that non-evangelicals find most annoying about evangelicals is when they claim that other people can’t lead happy and fulfilling lives unless they believe in the same things that they do.
