MA has a historic number of ballot questions. Here's a handy guide for the 9 statewide ballot questions this year.

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

Happy "No More DIGGER Trailer at the Cinema" Day

The Furious is on Starz. Everyone should be shouting about this movie from the rooftops.

I keep going back to the number of gags / scares in the Resident Evil movie based on a first-time player losing their mind in frustration. The puzzles, the doors, the reloading. The more I think about it, the more I’m in awe of Cregger pulling this off so well.

My demanding sister, the lady of the house who I financially depend upon, is furious I called her acquaintance Serena's horse a "handsome beast". Apparently the horse is obviously not good enough for Serena and she's embarrassed of it. "Anyone" could have seen this I am told.

I watched 52 Pickup starring Roy Scheider and the villain from Gremlins 2. A ride through the seedy underbelly of ‘80s LA where every guy is trying to out-sleaze each other. In short it was fuckin awesome.

Hey. It’s my birthday, the day I finished my newest short, and exactly a year ago, I posted my last short, MISOPHONIA, on YouTube. It’s a silent-ish comedy about hating sound. It would be a rad b-day present if you watched, liked and shared it. youtu.be/buf1E3LdE34?...

Several people have asked about VAST OF NIGHT recently, as it's no longer streaming on Amazon. Spoke with director Andrew Patterson about it last night and he took the rights back, partnered with someone, and a physical and new streaming release is coming soon. So VAST OF NIGHT is coming back!

Grown ass adults like “trans rights are precious to me, but I want to see the bad guy’s face on back of the silly guy’s head again, so what can you do”
