  1. One of the great things about NaNoWriMo (National novel writing month) is the sheer speed of it. You don\u2019t have time to go back and fix things, you just keep going. Yesterday, I wrote myself into a brick wall, came up with a new character and now have a great comedy sequence that moves the story forward AND ups the tension. For the second act.<\/li>\n
  2. I am writing a fairly epic blog post about Brian Michael Bendis jumping to DC. I think this is a big deal, not because of the series he was writing for Marvel, but how deep he was in Marvels entire creative process on TV show, animation, video games and the like. This is a very big deal and will change the creative flow of Marvel. Will he make a change at DC? Hard to say. DC is kind of a mess, creatively, right now, with a few books generating interest, but the vast majority reading like mid 90\u2019s Marvel with C grade characters.<\/li>\n
  3. No word on MST3k\u2019s second Netflix season or a Turkey Day for 2017. Hey, Netflix, you gave Marco Polo a second season, what the hell?<\/li>\n
  4. There was a big election last night where things changed. I don\u2019t trust it. It\u2019s an off-off year, and only the people really mad came out. 2016 showed that America is fine with racism, hate and totalitarianism and I have seen nothing that convinces me that it has changed. I have given up on Americans and only live here because I don\u2019t have the means to leave or anywhere to go.<\/li>\n
  5. People don\u2019t change. They may change for a while, but they will always return to baseline. It\u2019s the one thing I am sure of.<\/li>\n
  6. I have been on 12 hour days at the FT job due to it being our busy season. I am waking up, going to work, coming home, eating something, going to bed and doing it all again. I thought I would get a break, since the part-time job has slowed and I am only there two or three nights a week. I was wrong.<\/li>\n
  7. I now just leave my phone in the car when I am at the FT job. Meh.<\/li>\n
  8. It looks like I have the entire Thanksgiving weekend off. I am going to get requited with my gym, my streaming services and the huge pile of books that has been building up since Labor Day.<\/li>\n
  9. The Universal \u201cshared universe\u201d where they will reboot their classic monsters has been shelved. Again. DC has stated their upcoming movies may not be connected. Making an interconnected movies universe it\u2019s damn hard, kids.<\/li>\n
  10. I haven\u2019t been making with the positivity much lately. Maybe I too am reverting to who I was before 1999. Not that it seems to matter. Meh.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"reddit\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
