Again. I’m asking bars to sell me chexmix. You even it in a nice bowl and sell it to me for $7. This is a free idea.

ANDY WEIR’S LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE
Wait. Like the June?
I might need to leave the state. This place is gonna lose their god damn mind.
“And I’ll do it in the stupidest way…through rhyming.”
The problems with America can be explained through the 1962 musical The Music Man. It isn’t a problem. Just rare piece of media that acknowledges all our problems.
It’s the grifting, racism, Puritanism, jingoism, and “won’t somebody think of the children”-ism.

My last workplace was very into Clsude and I’ve never been happier to be out of that place.
Honestly, nowadays we see the Firefly cast more than we do actual real life fireflies and that in and of itself feels like a crime against nature.
There’s a guy FaceTiming someone in this bar. It sounds like a serious conversation. It’s so weird.

Black cat sleeping in a cat bed shaped like a shark’s mouth.
A special update from our sponsor. Zzzzzz
“Teeny tiny terror void Teevee coming at ya from The Shark’s Mouth.
Today’s topics is naps. I nap. Nap now.”
You’re right. I couldn’t guess the logo.
1. Volunteer firefighter, and a drunk short king with terrible taste in women
2. (In the words of my uncle) “Great boss (construction), great scout leader, terrible father.”
I think I can probably do better than those schmucks.
Possible named Clam Up with Philip Eil.
I need my trusted jelly fish scientist @rebeccarhelm.bsky.social to weigh in. This feels about right.
But seahorses are the only fish in that list feels…off. But I will accept whatever she says.
(Aside, I’ve met Rebecca irl and she rules).
Yes 2 and 3 are the same. Because folks want me to mind read whatever they meant. And the older they are, the more they get upset at me asking for an email to contact.
“Show up, details later” is the bulk of what I’m expected to share.
Without real addresses I can’t plug in the numbers. But I can guess that if 40 miles is $120 then 573 miles is A LOT MORE.
And that $10 is even less useful.
It costs $130 (without a tip) to go from Providence to Boston. It’s 40-ish miles.
And I live in an “urban corridor.”
That $10 in Kansas is a white hot acid spit in the eye of trans residents.
I looked it up. Topeka to Chicago is 573 miles. One of the largest cities in the Midwest.
*make forms
Their shoot is very soon.
I already sent out the newsletter outside our regular cadence.
3 people unsubscribed from this one “special” opportunity.
This film got their chance.
Learn how to make forks before requesting special effort.
This all got kicked off because I did a favor and did an extra newsletter for a last minute background actor casting call. Like “show up on X day for lunch” type of casting.
And they have the audacity to ask me to do ANOTHER newsletter to share the background actor signup form.
5) in summary, the youths don’t know these things because I haven’t seen adults do these things.
4) Again, links and emails and SOME WAY OF KNOWING WHAT YOU WANT PEOPLE TO DO is important to running literally anything.
Links, dates, addresses, times, email…this is what your audience needs and I can’t provide on a $0 newsletter budget.
3) Why didn’t you share my thing?!
I get no money from running this film festival. Please be fucking patient. And actually provide details/links/emails for what you want.
Most of the things I deal with:
1) show up on X day (no event link, image, page, or organizers info) I need details to send my audience
2) why didn’t you share my thing?!? (Yes, I saw your thing on social media, please send to the official email address to get in line he newsletter)
Someone younger than me called our newsletter the “flyer”. It took a ton on emails to establish they didn’t want this be on our printed posters.
Usually: They have no email where people can get more info.
No social media presence.
No link to their project.
No image I can use to make their project more impactful.
But they want it “in the newsletter.”
To all the youths out there: you are not the worst or dumbest generation.
I run a very small film festival and community news letter.
And I’ve got people in their late 30-50s asking to share their project.
