Tweet-thread of the Day, Speaking As A Parent, I Am Appalled… edition.
…that the Mouse was generating these kinds of S&P notes on Gravity Falls. I watched this show with my kids, and it is absolutely absurd that Disney was this frantic over ‘crud,’ particularly since the end of the show involved insane chaos gods showing up. I swear to God: some of these people must be real fun at parties.

PS GRAVITY FALLS was a great show.

I like what I do for a living. Quite a lot, really. But there is no denying that these fellows have a f*cking sweet gig.

Taking a *creative* break for the rest of the week.
It’s the last week of school for the kids, family’s visiting, and mostly I just want to get some Father’s Day R&R time in. Have a few beers, enjoy some afternoon summer naps, maybe grill things this weekend. Pretty standard stuff, but vacations are weird under the stay-at-home dad system.
I dunno. Maybe I’ll watch movies for the rest of the week. That’d be nice. I’ve never actually seen THE USUAL SUSPECTS all the way through, you know? I should remedy that.

I’ll be backing this, naturally. Anything that gets more people interested in the Secret World Legends MMO, which would means updates to the MMO. I might even be tempted to write a scenario or two for it, although it’d require me getting deeper into 5e D&D. Still, worth it for the personal satisfaction, if nothing else…
Tweet of the Day, BEHOLD! The Movie That Will Destroy Social Media, Once And For All edition.
It’s very exciting.

It’ll end with people dueling with chainsaws, I betcha. I cannot wait to see the carnage. The neon purple-pink carnage…
