Curious about The Rock's just announced Hawaiian mafia movie idea? Then check out the TV pilot script for THE PEOPLE'S KINGDOM written by me & @kroe.bsky.social! (DMs open!) This story is personal—my uncle was in the Hawaiian mob. He was killed. We dug deep to tell a story inspired by his POV.

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

So deeply heartbreaking. Just saw Eric Bauza at Dynasty Typewriter 3 weeks ago; he was so talented, sharp, kind, and hilarious. My condolences to everyone impacted by his amazing work as a voice artist, and as a human being. May his memory be a blessing.

Mumford & Sons are the new banned Pokémon episode

Just bought an overpriced Dodgers-themed Mumford & Sons shirt because smart design works on me I regrettably must stan 🤷‍♂️

Can’t believe the merger just happened and the Animaniacs are already taking their skills elsewhere

I know how this looks 😬 #primetime

I love TV so much — just listed my own top 10 of the 21st century. The bodies of AMAZING shows litter the ground, and my thoughts will change 3 minutes from now, filling me with regret. Best part of the NYTimes package: Who top TV writers & other notables voted for: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

"Even the more progressive version of American history can leave Native people out. "In that version, the founding fathers may have been deeply flawed, but subsequent generations fought for freedom and liberty and gradually created a more perfect democracy." - Rebecca Nagle

At last, Pope Leo XIV can defeat Superman.

As @daviddark.bsky.social tells us, there are so many ways to love God.

Jimmy Olsen changed 😳

My reckless #Lanterns speculation: - Hal's still alive in 2026, working with Sinestro - John becomes a Red Lantern thanks to his rage - Laura Linney's not a Guardian Top murder suspects: - Jason Ritter (motivation: revenge) - The grandson-turned-football-player - John's parents

Everyone hates AI but Siri just reminded me where I parked after I walked half a mile the wrong way so THANKS ROBOTS 🤖

Got a little choked up by this Garfield strip tbh!!

My TV thriller pilot NET ASSESSMENT just made the quarterfinals of @networkisa.bsky.social's Table Read My Screenplay! It's a story about AI vs. the truth in a battle to make America the good guys again. Excited to see it advance here and to Final Draft Big Break's quarterfinals, what's next? 🤩

I feel like AI Slop was the aesthetic ‘60s psychedelia was aspiring to

Glad that Crash Bandicoot* finally gets a movie * headcanon

The hottest club in Westwood is the Practical Magic 2 premiere

Some news: my political thriller pilot NET ASSESSMENT is a Quarterfinalist in @finaldraftinc.bsky.social's Big Break! It's a story about an ex-CIA officer using a black ops Pentagon AI to make America "the good guys" around the world again, burying reality along the way. #screenwriting

Some days, you just need a word like this. Thanks, @fredvanlente.bsky.social & @gregpak.net! (From their excellent book, Make Comics Like The Pros)

Went to a Fast & Furious 25th anniversary screening today for my Bday! Living my birthday A QUARTER MILE AT A TIME.

Excited for whenever I'm fancy enough to get a copy of the Ballad of the Ember Knight script so I can complete the trilogy of The Dark Knight, The Green Knight, AND FINALLY

Went to see La La Land in theaters, just had to see Ryan Gosling save jazz AGAIN. THE LAST JAZZFIGHTER.

Excited for my path to fame being WIkipedia-linked from a relative who gets SUPER famous and whose fans decide I deserve 4 paragraphs too.

Out checking out my favorite philosopher/theologian, Peter Rollins, doing his Church of the Contradiction! Opening up by talking about if there’s life after death, existentialism, and Soren Kierkegaard. VERY MUCH MY JAM.

Just revamped my website, in case you want to get at your boy for any journalism, screenwriting, comics, other writing projects, etc. Or just want to read more about The 30 Rock Book or any of my other projects. MikeRoe.net: Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! Tell your acquaintances!

Got my boy band headset mic on for a show I’m acting in tonight (for a scene I wrote!)…

This is tonight, hope to see some of y'all there... The show is SOLD OUT, but you should be able to get in off the waitlist (but you may not have a physical seat)! I'll be performing in a scene that I wrote, alongside a fantastic actress. 6 pm, Pasadena art event, LET'S GO!

Started a rewatch of Community last night, here’s to having a SUMMER OF 2009!
