Ash is coming to L.A.!
Yub Nub! Guess who’s coming to the West Coast for the first time in over 8 years! If half a century of Space Wizards is being celebrated it’d be rude not to be there! Cya April 2nd @TheBelascoLA
Tickets: Sat 1st Aug 10am PDT!

There’s this never-ending debate about whether em dashes, semicolons, and colons have become signs of AI writing. As a result, many of us writers have stopped using them—swapping them for commas or reshaping sharp, effective sentences into something blander—to avoid suspicion.
But AI was trained on the best of us. On millions of published works by real authors. It learned from our voices, our rhythms, our punctuation. And now we’re acting as if those marks somehow belong to machines.
They don’t.
Those tools were ours long before AI existed. Our teachers taught us how and when to use them, years before anyone imagined generative AI. So let’s take them back. Let’s use the full range of language with confidence. The em dash, the semicolon, the colon—they’re not signals of artificiality. They’re signs of craft.

@danny_robins@ciaranokeeffe Popcorn for life! 🍿 Didn’t buy Ciaran’s theory here. Both of them happened to have the same hallucinatory reaction to popcorn, but no reports from anyone else? If multiple people were tripping out after leaving the theatre, word would have spread. Fantastic poster btw.
So here’s our gift to you. A little Christmas present for all your support this year! Wrapped up in the shape of a chrimbo cover of Santa Claus is coming to town!
Get your reind ears around this future Christmas classic and let’s get festive!https://t.co/TpqREJ7jVa

For all those DMing to say how old it makes you feel; it's how old it makes you realise you are.
You actually FEEL younger than your age. So really I'm doing you a favour. 😘
Happy Friday everyone.
