Transferring from the soon to be closing screenwriting.space. I guess new server should mean new intro.

I'm a #writer, family man, traveler, and all around appreciator of arts and culture.

Going to try to keep this account focused on #writing, #film, and the #arts

My various interests, in convenient hashtag format include: #Screenwriting #absurdism #surrealism #cooking #Yellowjackets #WhatWeDoInTheShadows #Goth

Once again getting lost the delightful surrealist world of Ernie Kovacs, a major influence on… basically everyone in absurdist teevee world. Without Ernie, there'd be no Pythons, no Pee-Wee, no Swedish chef.

Until I get my #zines up, I posted a little bit about #absurdliterature for those who would like to read up on it.

While you are there, help yourself to one of my free books 😃

I think y'all may have figured out that I regard absurdism as an important part of a complete breakfast.

Hard to believe, but Nose Ears comic no. 700 is now online! That's a big number for me. And a lot of comics. If you liked it so far, why not spread the word? But just to make sure this doesn't get overlooked: This isn't all my own work, as you can clearly see in the credits. I can't draw, but I can write (at least I believe so). 😛 But still, this is my canvas for my random and strange thoughts. 700 times now.

Absurdism: the opportunity to create is inexhaustible, because reality is indifferent to our demands and desires: you either take this opportunity, despite of (revolt that accepts the Absurd by engaging it) or forgo it because of (Nostalgia that denies the Absurd) reality.

It really is all about recognising and acknowledging the absurdity in every day #softwareengineering life.

Answer on Quora to "What are cor blimey trousers" - from a barrister apparently 😂

-------------------

Cor blimey trousers are trousers which are fit only for wearing whilst carrying out particularly grubby jobs - such as gardening, sweeping the chimney or emptying dustbins.

Upon seeing an unusually disreputable pair of trousers being worn in public, one might well say “Cor blimey!”.

These days dustmen are issued with protective high visibility clothing.

I just recently discovered Savatore Ganacci’s short videos, and I love them. If you’re into Absurdist cinema and like Tim & Eric or Monty Python, you might like them.

Related, learned this from the same article:

#Amazon named its gig work outsourcing business after a fraudulent machine at the centre of a decades-long 18th-century hoax.

And also, "mechanical turk worker." Not making this up. Truth is stranger.

If Life Loses Meaning, There’s Still Life (Existentialism, Absurdism & Nietzsche) - Einzelganger

What do you do when you realize life has no meaning, yet there is still life? Philosophers have been struggling with the meaningless of life for centures. Maybe they have something to teach us.

#Absurdism ?

Never heard of it

Hmm I never did a post an #introduction…

By day I teach hacking… when my boss isn’t watching I draw Pokémon with boobs. It started as a joke, but then I went mad, and its my coping strategy now 🤷.

Got turned down from monetising Onlyfans for being “too confusing” so I guess the fediverse get poké-titties…

Fun fact: I killed an elderly man with my voice in the happiest place on earth when I was young and carefree.

Four years after H.G. Wells published 'The Time Machine' (1895), Alfred Jarry wrote 'How to Construct a Time Machine' (1899).

Jarry (pataphysics, Ubu Roi) was a French Symbolist poet, playwright, and influence on #Dadaism, #Surrealism, #Futurism, and #Absurdism. His works influenced many avant-garde thinkers and art movements of the 20th century.

We're out working in the potatoes.

He: We're going to be eating a lot of potatoes this year.

I: That won't be great for our waistlines. Starch turns to sugar which turns into fat.

He: That's IF you don't burn it. We're out here burning calories right now.

I: I haven't eaten any potatoes so you're wrong.

He: OK that's absurd.

I: That's how Conservatives argue.

He: Conservatives are the potatoes of the vegetable world.

And we laugh and laugh. #absurdism
