My debut novel Paragon in the Current is OUT NOW!
Available in both paperback and eBook.
It would mean so much to me if you’d help celebrate the launch by sharing this post. Thank you to everyone for your support, encouragement, and enthusiasm.
Enjoy the book! (Links in 🧵)
The new unhinged Digger discourse is that it’s not funny and isn’t supposed to be. I laughed out loud at least a dozen times. I don't understand how the very blatant comedy not only isn't landing for a lot of people, it's like they don't even recognize it as comedy at all.
Now Watching:
•Little Shop of Horrors (1986) [4K UHD]
When I was a kid, I must have watched our VHS copy of this movie fifty times. It’s one of my all-time favorites. I was thrilled to see it was getting a 4K upgrade with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.
Now Watching:
•Band of Brothers (2001) [Blu-ray]
It’s been several years since I last watched this fantastic miniseries. Looking forward to watching it over the next couple of weeks. I’ll likely follow it up with The Pacific.
This Digger situation is the first time I’ve felt angry that a film flopped. I don’t care about the dollar figure, but about what it represents, which is that this incredible film didn’t fail because people saw it and judged it; most people have judged it without even seeing it.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

On October 16, 2019, I told Donald Trump, “With you, Mr. President, all roads lead to Putin.”
On October 16, 2026, Trump signed an executive order waiving new sanctions on Russia passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed into law just last month.
This decision insults America’s commitment to democracy and our brave men and women in uniform, as Russia helps Iran target American forces.
I join Republican senators in condemning this unconscionable capitulation to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians.
As I have asked for years: What does Putin have on Trump that he would sell out America’s values?

The White House claimed there were 16,000 non us citizens in Nevada that were on the voter rolls… after being forced to provide data to this they dropped their made up number to 185… Nevada investigated the 185 names and discovered that all of them were legal us citizens that were legally allowed to vote. Meaning the Trump White House was only off by 100%.
Now Watching:
•mid90s (2018) [Netflix]
I saw this one years ago and have been itching for a rewatch.

Hegseth is unfit.
The day Congress is back, we will force a vote to pass @RepThomasMassie’s impeachment resolution and remove him.

Americans oppose live-streaming Nidal Hasan's execution, 80%-18%, per a new WaPo-ABC poll.
But one group supports it: MAGA Republican men, who back it 57%-42%.
