already decided that next week's sketch (which actually NEEDS to be a parody) is essentially "what if gohan just shot cell with a gun" and that fake-gohan's name is gonna be "turnip"
been thinking about him all day, my beautiful son turnip
for my sketch writing class this week i wrote a parody of the pitt called "the void" where the doctors open up a patient's chest and find nothing there but a vast empty expanse, and it's so stupid but i'm really really proud of the throwaway joke name i gave the patient which is "david navidson"

"democratizing art" means using your phone camera to film a shitty movie in your friend's backyard and then posting it on the internet. it doesn't mean paying software companies for the privilege of pretending that you are the architect of whatever their plagarism-powered function machines produce

Watching Wonder Man is insufferable with me because every time the show makes a pop culture reference I say something like “they can do that because Disney owns it”

two hours??? if WaPo's not gonna pay to mail peoples' belongings to them, then they should get to do what i did at MTV News in 2016: show up the next day hungover as shit, spend all afternoon throwing up in the bathroom and steal a playstation 4 (with guitar hero controllers) on the way out
Friends at the Post say they have been asked to sign up for two hour times slots to come pick up their things after getting news of their jobs being gone

Always felt like great fodder for one of those acting exercises where you emphasize a different word every time you say the line. It is right to give HIM thanks and praise? It IS right to give him thanks and praise!
"it is right to give him thanks and praise" was always the funniest part of catholic mass to me. a bunch of people murmuring "retweet"

me? oh yeah, fine. I'm doing great. just sort of left my body for a second to observe the current moment and my place in it from a high angle, sort of like what I imagine you'd see from a spy satellite? but one that can look through time? but yeah, I'll have that report done by the end of the day

the best thing is how well these folks line up with common high school marching band stereotypes. look at all these white nerds in glasses rounding out the low brass. look at this drummer who's too cool for gloves. they are my family and i love them
brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

Described this post to my husband and we started riffing on the idea of teleporting yourself to Text World by ritually chanting Lorem Ipsum placeholder text
It’s not helping with my deadline but it IS very delightful to think about
ok stay with me on this one... sometimes you have writer's block because you're not in Text World. you have to read until you're back in Text World. if you don't read, you're writing in the real world. sentences won't feel right or they'll look goofy. not in Text World though

Deborah L Scott had a really hard job of designing garments for a civilization that doesn't care about whether or not their tits are showing which, nevertheless, would not ACTUALLY reveal any tits to moviegoers, and for that reason alone she deserves her Avatar: Fire and Ash costume nomination
