Of all the alternate history premises in fiction, the McGuffin of @edenrobins's debut, "When Franny Stands Up," is one of the most unlikely and - it turns out - rich. read.sourcebooks.com/fiction/978172 1/

Bon voyage to the mensch of mensches, the voice of Earwax, the director of Tee K.O. and Role Models and Fibbages 3&4 and *especially* Quiplash 2 in which he bestowed me a "special thanks" credit (patently my greatest achievement to date). He is now loose, lock your doors

Announcement time: After 7 years and 7 party packs, today is my last day at @jackboxgames. Working at Jackbox has truly been a dream come true, and I am so damn proud of the work I got to do here, and the people I got to collaborate with.

It's too bad Austin is in Texas because this city is exactly my shit. Tonight I overheard a guy say "Crime is a construct. Crime doesn't exist" and then 20 minutes later he said "Have you seen that episode of Sex and the City where...?"

Ryan Gosling on the upcoming ‘Barbie’ movie: “It's not what you think it is, unless it is. And then you know what it is, but I don't think that's what you think it is.” (amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/07/13)

This book by
@edenrobins
doesn't come out until November, but it can be pre-ordered now at your favorite indie bookstore (or favorite multinational retail squid)! If you tell 8.7 billion close friends to get a copy, I'll never have to work again!

So listen it's obvious right now that things need to change i.e. health care and income inequality but also I was wondering if we could finally switch to metric

If you're looking for more movies that are thematically relevant to current events such as "Contagion" and "12 Monkeys," consider watching "Bubba Ho-Tep" because that's how we're treating old people right now
