AW Newsletter: Actually, It Is Bad

Uncertain times feels like an understatement. Economic collapse? Check. Political dissidents getting disappeared off the street? Check. Neil Young is dragging his rusty ass out of whatever leather shoe he lives in with Daryl Hannah to give a sub par performance at a Political Rally? Ah yes, the pieces are all in place. It is […]

AW Newsletter: Tiny Pies

Sometimes I think I am too medium smart. I wish I were stupid or extremely smart. If I were a genius at something then I could be miserable but also write the Great American Novel or Great American Tax Plan. Medium smart is like, you read the paper, you understand the words and kind of […]

AW Newsletter: Nosfer-a-TWO

On D’arcy Every so often some dude will take to Reddit (I should just end there), and make a post on the Resident Alien sub about how much they hate D’arcy. Before you trouble yourself with reading this latest installment, know that I appreciate these posts. They often talk about D’arcy in terms used to […]

AW Newsletter: What Day is It

Hello Wetterheadz. I miss you all. The following passage was written on the ferry back from Ladysmith. We’re down to our last week of filming, and the week before last I had to do a week where I worked every day. Every day! I do not know how anyone does this. I guess it’s easier […]

Nosferatu Review

Although I watched this movie over two months ago in earth time and thirty five years ago in relative 2025 time (wildfires, hostile coup by technocratic oligarchs, Infinity Nikki), this review is going to be spoiler-free and light on…actual facts about the movie I talk about. Haha, sorry! You might still be entertained, because the […]

AW Newsletter: Background Thoughts II: There and Backroundagain

A week ago I told you the sordid tale of someone I barely knew asking me something that made me really uncomfortable. I gave you the context that I had at the time so you would be able to understand why it made me uncomfortable, and what lessons I think people in man-shaped bodies should take from it.

AW Newsletter: Background Thoughts

Before I became the massive A-list celebrity star that I am now, I did some background work in New York when I was taking Improv 101 at a little known pyramid scheme called The Upright Citizens Brigade. The most notable project I worked on was Nick and Nora’s infinite playlist, where I played a person […]
