When a friend asks for your opinion on a book and to provide a blurb, there’s often a temptation to get through it quickly because you want to be able get them what they need as soon as you can.
It’s a testament to BEAT EVERY 1-UP that I wanted to savour each chapter for as long as I could.

Writers, if you could drop your novel into a blender that also sets your dick on fire, and every artist you admire laughs and calls you "burnt dick blender guy," would you do it?
Writers if you could drop your novel or short story into an AI and have it make a great and watchable movie out of your story, and you could sell that movie, would you do it? #writers #WritingCommunity

AI filmmaking is completely unserious.
You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

Help me pay for all the CLASSIFIED pre-orders I just pre-ordered by shopping my line of weird, hyper-specific GI JOE shirts (and products)
In the hopes that the larger #GIJoe community of People Who Need Shirts to Wear to Conventions / Comic Shops / Everday Life, here's a thread of all my designs. I think they're unlike anything else out there, I'm just saying! Plus, I always *need* the money.

You know what, just Truman Show this kinda shit. Soulless turn to the camera and just Booty Sweat this nonsense.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

I loved this book. The episodic romps of early 00s anime meet the vaporwave-fueled world of the console wars in this wonderful celebration of video games, Toonami, and being true to yourself. Lan and Joe have always been a killer team but this book gives them the platform they’ve always deserved.
