We’re all living in the first third of every Tom Clancy novel at once but written by Dan Brown.

Oh thanks! Yeah, he’s well-deserving of such treatment. Those books were deeply inspirational to me when I was a teenager. Love that stuff.

In my experience, that’s a bit of a trap that tends to suck up time. Unless you have a very clear idea of what you’re building when you start writing, you can get lost in that for a long time with nothing finished to show for it. But YMMV!

Nah, it’s fine.

I started by writing something small (a scenario, a short story) and then, when I was certain I could handle something bigger, moved into that.

Hm. I generally have an endless supply of ideas (I think most artists do). I try to focus on finishing ideas before entertaining new ones — I usually only let myself work on two or three things at one time, tops to prevent never finishing anything.

Cheers, Steen! Good luck!

“Iran is totally defeated”

Climate change is a series of videos you see on YouTube over a number of years of entire regions being wiped out by hurricanes, floods, tornadoes and fires, until you’re the one taking the video.

“But the Constitution says…”

I get it. But they’re not following the Constitution, are they? They’re using it to muzzle you while doing whatever they want.

They’re going to ignore your election results or cause such a calamity that no one has an iota of will left to fight them.

Wake up, please.

Much of the bill of rights is ignored on a daily basis. Congress is completely irrelevant. The Supreme Court is literally something out of the Godfather.

Your “leader” is a criminal pedophile who led an insurrection and then stole 300 lbs of top secret nuclear documents.

WTF are you even doing?

A personality composed wholly of defending a brand or product should be a basis by which you can be medically euthanized.

Can I ask why you continue to pretend to have a functioning, legitimate government?

You have masked unidentified secret police murdering and disappearing people without warrants or due process, and it’s clear the criminals in the White House don’t plan on leaving?

Why play pretend?

Enjoy it while it lasts. It’s last days there.

You seem smart. No wait. What’s the other one.

Continue to preach to your 95 followers.

Flush.

FRIENDLY FIRE DOESN’T COUNT.

No backsies.

“How dare you speak ill of Microsoft I love Xbox!”

If you actually loved Xbox you’d be speaking ill of Microsoft too, you nipple.

Everyone who’s actually shipped a video game raise your hand.

I’m raising my hand.

Good luck on your war against the disposition of physical reality.

This is going to end with Chinese gunboats patrolling the strait and we are all going to die of irony.

Hence, Nothing is Xbox.

This world is so incredibly, unendingly stupid.

Lovecraft’s Gun:
If in the first act you have hung a gun on the wall, then in the following one it should be thrown at the inhuman monstrosity after being emptied at it with zero effect. Otherwise don't put it there.

When everything is Xbox, nothing is Xbox.

The work continues

The grueling pace could not be maintained.

“Iran’s government is run by religious fanatics.”

oh

You’re wrong.

You live in a fascist dictatorship run by a pedophile.

You have no rights, and no recourse. You are livestock.

Morning, bitches!

All creative choices are a risk. There is no such thing as a totally appealing idea. Ever.

The corporate move of rendering down the ideas of two dozen people into one idea achieves two things:

-It spreads the blame around
-It makes it FAR MORE LIKELY the idea will fail

I think it’s pretty clear you no longer *have* a Constitution.
