I hate that he’s the most significant president of my lifetime.

I’m both morbidly curious and completely horrified at whatever the SNL cold open is going to be…

Mary wiseman as Sylvia Tilly in Starfleet academy

Before she met Ake, my wife’s favorite Star Trek character was Tilly. (They’re probably neck and neck now!) We even saw Mary Wiseman live in the play At the Wedding! Seeing her on Starfleet Academy the day after Michelle got home from presenting at high school Thespian festivals…are you kidding me?

Had a job interview today that is the convergence of everything from my almost 25-years as a writer. There are properties and people from DC, TMNT, Star Trek, WWE, Ender's Game, and more. It's like my personal Avengers Assemble! Wildest thing I've experienced in awhile.

In case there was any question which side of the puck I’m on today. 🏒🇨🇦

Thanks Obama

Right?! When I was working on Ready Room and writing a TOS story for Explorer magazine, I referenced several of the TRR team. ♥️

Seeing my dear friend and past Shorty and Promax Award-winning collaborator @drerinmac.bsky.social in a Star Trek: Voyager comic inexpressibly warms my soul.

Today sees the release of Star Trek Connections trading cards produced by Rittenhouse Archives. The set celebrates 60 years of Trek. I've been writing Star Trek cards since 2019 and this is by far my favorite set I've done. I wrote the base set and four of the insert sets.

Absolutely incredible, Heather!

Iconic

Thanks! Just part of the game as you know.

I feel that in my bones. A few months ago I submitted one and never heard anything. But I did see the book I was pitching for announced a couple days ago so 🫠

I feel that

I’ve used the same accounts for 20 years. We have a rhythm.

DS9 is my favorite by a mile too. I’m on a podcast where my friend is watching everything Trek and we’re just about to finish DS9 season two. It’s awesome.

Watching Star Trek lower decks

With my wife halfway across the country teaching at a Thespian festival, I’m spending Valentine’s Day with the ones I love…Bingeing my favorite Lower Decks episodes.

Exactly

Got my taxes done. While the results were very good in our favor, it was a reminder of how much last year sucked professionally. Soooo, if you’re the editor/publisher of comics, trading cards, licensed kids books or content marketing hit me up. I’ll write great things for you. jakeblack.com

Every 2026 Dem campaign must include at least one ad featuring the 🌨️off🚽 clip. Because seriously?!
