Sometimes I bring a “sings ‘Holland, 1945’ at karaoke” vibe to the party that people don’t always love. But they should.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go. I've decided this is actually a good omen and I will not be examining that further.

the only things I know about Marty Supreme at this point are that it has hype merch and Timmy Chalamet is involved, in spite of the fact that I’ve heard the movie mentioned 18 times a day for the past two weeks. At first I thought it might be a doc about Scorsese but now that seems unlikely

Part of the Civil Rights Movement was a dignity claim that when you are in public you have a right to be spoken to in a neutral manner. Hamilton v. Alabama. This service worker may hate to serve me Cinnabons, but it is part of her job to serve every customer in the same manner.

So far the Game awards have given me the only scenario where I get excited about a Star Wars game and Miss Piggy. That’s 2-for-2 in the first couple of minutes of a show that normally gives me so many 0s I crawl out of my skin.

I had a long talk with someone yesterday about how all prior logic and norms about the labor market have been called off because capital is in the final push to finally casualize white collar workers the way they’ve long wanted to do. From AI to non-competes to this. They smell blood in the water.

I'll say again: we are oddly selective about the government services about which we will say, they operate at a loss. We say Amtrak and the post office "lose money" but we never say highways, the court system, the Pentagon, etc lose money

3.5 weeks into a 2 month round of steroids for a truly catastrophic Crohn’s flare-up and — while the pain is still bad and I’ve lost like 15 lbs — I’m starting to feel like myself again. Today’s goals may surpass “shower” and “don’t vomit.” Sorry-not-sorry for the flex.
