I drew this way, way too small so the resolution is funky, but 🤷‍♂️

If you're going to Telluride Horror Show, I hope you'll check out MAN FINDS TAPE. So very bummed that @paulgandersman.bsky.social and I couldn't be there in person for it.

The best thing about a corn maze is that you can never get lost *if* you’re hungry enough.

Some MLB teams are babyfaces and some are heels, just like in wrestling, and the Cubs have been babyfaces my entire life.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
