On one hand it hurts my heart that the version of the film industry I hoped to enter doesn't exist, at least not anymore. On the other hand...I could build it.

I've literally never done this in my life, but I'm in kind of a monetary emergency. If there's anybody who could lend an assist, I can get it back to them or do an art/cosplay exchange...

Did a run-through of the scene tonight. Gonna revise the dialogue. Tonight was also a testament to my belief that I have no business acting and directing at the same time.

I've been trying to film the same damn scene for three weeks. I finally get the kids to sleep and have the space I need to myself. I get the lights set up. I get the props ready. I'm back in the clothes I need to film in...and my four year old wakes up. FML.

I make no secret of how much I really dislike Trump. I mean, I basically hate the guy and I don't hate anybody. But manoman, I don't hate Trump near as much as the average conservative seems to hate Beyonce. Y'all are damn weird.

we're living through one of the greatest technological revolutions in the history of mankind and it's not AI
Solar + storage is now $104 per MWh in Las Vegas or similar regions for nearly 100% clean firm power. There is no way new nuclear can compete with this. Even new gas plants will struggle and that is assuming access to cheap gas over the life-cycle of the plant, which is kind of a crazy gamble TBH.
Batteries are so cheap now, solar power doesn’t sleep
Batteries are now cheap enough to make 24/7 solar power affordable, unlocking round-the-clock clean energy in the world’s sunniest cities.

I don't post as much on here as I should. So in the last couple of weeks I've started on my first short film in over a decade (more like 15 years, but who's counting) and I missed it SO MUCH.

I might have just got the ball rolling on my first paying video gig in 13 years. Cue the music: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSqv...

From here on, in order to be eligible to run for President, you should have to pass a comprehensive test created by the Department of Education that ensures that the prospective candidate knows exactly what the job of the President entails, including what the President legally can and cannot do.

When RFK Jr. says things like "Autism destroys families" it really, REALLY pisses me off. You know what destroys families? Cancer destroys families. Rare diseases, like the Adrenoleukodystrophy that my son has, destroys families.
