Here is the poster! #SDCC

Honored to be on this cool panel with these cool people at SDCC. Haven't been seen pre pandemic times. Might try out a new tie for the occasion. Hope to see some of you there!

Perfectly normal Saturday crafting project.

I couldn't be prouder to see my friend and wonderful human Shoshanna Scholar recognized by the LAT as a cultural changemaker. For years she has been working to change how our government treats habitual drug users. You can read about her amazing work here. www.latimes.com/la-influenti...

Creatures you might find in these woods.

Huge congrats to the locals! The terms announced here seem promising. May the full terms of the deal live up. Crossing fingers things go as smooth for the Teamsters. Also the animation guild / IATSE 839 hasn’t negotiated yet. Again, this is good! But we still have a ways to go…

Some cool trees who were kind enough to hold their poses.

I just filled out my animation guild negotiations survey. Calling all TAG / 839 members to do the same! This is critical for TAG negotiators to understand the needs of membership and FIGHT on our behalf. We are all the union and we need to speak up! This is how.

It is Father’s Day and also would have been his birthday. Funny how the complicated stuff fades and now I just miss moments with him like this.

It was an honor to represent Strange New Worlds tonight at Variety’s Night in the Writers Room. I can’t believe I got to share the stage with such incredible writers! I hope Academy voters nominate all of us. #SubspaceRhapsody 📸 by Stephanie Sanditz

Remembering the great writer/director Sam Fuller, also an infantryman at D Day. Check out this letter to his mom! "How I was lucky enough to get through this nightmare is beyond me." A nightmare that rightly included not being able to find a decent cigar🫡 www.criterion.com/current/post...

We got Getty imaged! So cool to attend the Strange New Worlds fyc with Dana Horgan, Kay Hanley, and Tom Polce, and watch Subspace Rhapsody in front of an audience. Really the best way to see a musical. Recommend!

Saw this helpful reminder on York.

IGN Live is screening a sing-along of Subspace Rhapsody in DTLA! After there’s a panel with me, @horgandee and @tompolce. So excited to be there and also to fully sing along. 🖖🏻🎶❤️ 🎟️ at ign.com/live

The assignment was draw a background for this duck. Our kid went hard. #DuckWar3

Wow! The Star Trek franchise just got a Peabody Institutional Award. The award honors EVERY series AND the wonderful, passionate fandom, truly the whole Trek family. "Today Star Trek is more vibrant, imaginative, funny, entertaining, and progressive than ever." Humbling 🥹🖖🏻

Star Trek - The Peabody Awardspeabodyawards.com The original Star Trek television series aired on NBC for only three seasons, from September 1966 to June 1969. It was fresh, prescient, and so ahead of its time that...

Out here as a union member and an LAUSD parent to stand with union kin #UTLA and #SEIU99. Stop the Carvalho cuts! With a projected 6.3 billion dollars in reserve there is NO NEED for them. This will hurt teachers, staff, and students! Pass it on. #UnionStrong #WGAStrong

Supersonic Rocket Ship by the Kinks happened to be playing as we were driving. Pretty sure this is Oatmeal saying play it again.

Bill will literally download the latest final draft upgrade instead of writing.

I obviously solved it this way but on May the Fourth (only!) the other answer to 70 across on the greatest NYT xword of all time is acceptable (it works both ways).

Emmy Magazine interviewed the cast and crew (and me!) about making the first musical episode of Star Trek. Thank you! #SubspaceRhapsody #StrangeNewWorlds 🎶🪐🖖🏻

I asked Courtney if we could take our 9 yr old to see the Alien re-release in theaters (we didn’t). My dad had taken me when I was 6, I was pro. Courtney wasn’t. Our friend sent us this old news story of other kids whose parents took them in 1978. Judge for yourself. youtu.be/3Mt9sY2fTj0?...

It’s almost sundown on #AlienDay, when we “gather specimen” for Mother!

Jimmy Stewart and Betty Hutton will always star in the Joker sequel of my heart.

I am so lucky to know the great Scott Prendergast, he even officiated my wedding! He made a funny, deeply personal show for CBS, an astonishing feat. How he's handled his very-watched show's untimely cancellation shows exactly why he's a stellar human. deadline.com/2024/04/so-h...

Happy bicycle day! 4/19 is the day chemist Albert Hofmann took the first recorded dose of LSD and discovered he was tripping while riding a bicycle. Side note: it seems psychedelic therapy is finally becoming accepted which is good for mental well being and human advancement.

Good morning! A reminder that generative AI is a tool of the oppressor and should not be used for amusement, information, or income! Or for anything! Eat shit, robots! Have a great day, humans!

This is crazy. The Sesame Workshop is refusing a fair contract to writers. Sesame Street has set an example for generations of kids to live by (including me!) and the company should live by that example. You can write a letter telling them so here. t.co/anVPpaQ0i4
