Brunch at #CafeBeignet in #NewOrleans (the big one on Canal). Now I truly feel like I'm in the South, because I've got grits. ❤️

Also, #CafeDuMonde #beignets > Cafe Beignet. I like them both, but the beignets here are MUCH denser than the Cafe du Monde ones, which're light & fluffy.

Went to the #StoryvilleMuseum in #NewOrleans, had a great time & took a BUNCH of pics, but after my #GooglePixel10 camera app was "processing" for a couple of hrs, the pics are GONE. Not in camera & not backed up like pics from earlier in the day! What the hell? #Google @newsfromgoogle.bsky.social

Day 3 of rain in #NewOrleans -- thankfully, we have coffee and beignets to keep us warm. PRO TIP: the #CityPark location of #CafeDuMonde is better. Shorter line, parking area, more seating (I think?), and nicer ambience.

On this day 13 yrs ago: I went on a first date w/a friend who became my girlfriend.

On this day 9 yrs ago: That girlfriend became my wife.

Today: we're in #NewOrleans celebrating, despite the rain. Marrying my Ada was one of the best decisions I've ever made. ❤️

Just learned that @badrobot.bsky.social sold its iconic office! I've been a #BadRobot / #JJAbrams stan for yrs & was lucky enough to have had a general w/them -- but on Zoom, so I never got to see the office. 😔 RIP the Nat'l Typewriter Company. ❤️

Protesters in NYC literally blocked an ICE convoy from leaving their staging garage. People are learning from other cities. They’re finding ICE staging areas. They’re patrolling neighborhoods. They’re building rapid response networks. ICE is on the defense now.

There is no evidence linking COVID-19 vaccines to deaths in children. There is evidence that COVID causes serious harm — including long COVID, MIS-C, cardiac complications & diabetes.

This administration’s actions are dangerous, and the damage to the public and children may be irreversible

If you see this, post a comics cover you love.
Cover of the one shot comic 'Halloween Eve' depicting a young Black woman with a straight pin in her teeth holding a mirror up to someone else who's trying on a Dorothy from 'The Wizard of Oz' costume. The mirror is held over the Black woman's body so that the reflection looks like it could be her own torso.

They had to move a while back due to fuckery. Please give whatever you can!

"That's like striking oil in your yard, but complaining about the mess."

During a fellowship, I COMPLAINED that ppl call my scripts "fun" 'cause I HEAR "lacks substance." Another fellow said above & mentor agreed. Apparently folks'd "kill" to have their work called "fun" & my work "strikes oil."

To my #ADHD #PDD #writer girlies. This is just how it is sometimes & there's nothing to be done.

BTW, @johnaugust.bsky.social - tell Dana Fox that she made me cry in my car today. For reasons both related & totally UNrelated to her being on #Scriptnotes.

Then I realized that wasn't what this was about.
