Do your duty

STARSTRUCK HITS 40K! Thank you all for watching and sharing! Would love to keep this going, even as the algo tries to push us out haha. WATCH BELOW

I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Tell Congress: Pass the Bipartisan Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act (MPTERA). Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Janet’s thread contains feelings of regret, pain, and frustration. But also a desire to understand how to carry on. These are feelings lots of writers grapple with. Myself included. So this week’s #Scriptsky #Screenwriting 🧵 is on HOW TO DEAL WITH REJECTION AND HOW WE FRAME SUCCESS.

🦑 Meet Planctoteuthis sp.! 🦑 According to #SamplingGap Co-chief sci Dr. Perez: “Images have finally enabled the description of this tail, but no one knows what it is used for. It looks like a siphonophore from a distance, and one hypothesis is that it could be used for siphonophore mimicry.”

It would be great if something new in my life would turn out to not be a "portal" where I have to create a "login" for my "new account".

Shockingly, the more social media platforms I spread myself thin on, the more mentally unwell I become! Imagine! So I'm gonna hold off on uploading every episode here after all, but If you're staying off of IG and want to read SUGARBEAR, sit tight! I'm working on finding the right place for it 🫡

A new trailer for Alex Gibney's documentary about Elon Musk was just released. gizmodo.com/elon-musk-do...

Trump is putting his name on US Bills as opposed to its usual place on unpaid bills.

People of Los Angeles, here is a fun thing to try. Have a jokey conversation with an employee at Ralph’s or Von’s. Don’t give all your best stuff to workers at Trader Joe’s.

LA friends! If you’re on the West Side today, come check out my wife, Diane Michaeli’s beautiful ceramic work from 10am to 3pm at Mercado Dorado 806 Projects at 806 Broadway in Santa Monica!

Literary agent and author @realjackiegm.bsky.social was kind enough to invite me to her series of interviews on substack. "Off Camera: Conversations with Storytellers" has very interesting writers from all different fields already with more to come. hellojaymorales.substack.com/p/interview-...

Got an email about personal wellness from a well intended organization, but it stressed me the F out!

Season 2 of ADVENTURE TIME: SIDE QUESTS releases on 10/2 on Disney+ and Hulu!! This season includes one of my favorite things I’ve written. It’s a story based on a very humiliating incident from my childhood. Plus an homage to a classic movie. That’s all I can say for now but more after the release.

Took some big swings in Gubbins tonight that did NOT payoff.

Wow. Wordle really told me today.

“Hey! Look at me, everybody! I’m a cowboy! … Howdy, howdy, howdy!”

And give him all your potable water.

Anyone and Everyone can check HERE to see if the GOP kicked you off the Voter Rolls. If so, just RE-REGISTER ASAP!!

Liberals say the Supreme Court is hastening the end of our democracy. They’re wrong— the Supreme Court is hastening the end of our republic.

The ballooning national debt isn’t a problem now. But it will become one as soon as Democrats are in power again

As a principled fiscal conservative, I only care about budget deficits when Democrats are in power.

I need some Avatar help. Throw me suggestions for Earth Kingdom names -- all genders! (not loving the names I'm seeing in this ATLA name generator...)

I’ll bet I could beat this robot in a race if I was driving a car.

This is the prequel to Sluggo hypnotizing himself to quit smoking.

Why would Karen Bass want the Paramount / Warner lawsuit to be settled, when the merger will cost thousands of jobs and destroy our industry?

I think it’s also a bad deal for fans and consumers.

I agree with this thread 👇

I am confused why Karen Bass would do this when Hollywood workers are voters and she's running for mayor. Mayor of who? Why not listen to the workers who are saying this merger is a disaster? Great opportunity for @nithyaforthecity.bsky.social to show leadership where this is an apparent vacuum.
