the young prince Beeftank has returned from his first vet visit. verdict: healthy, incredibly photogenic, everyone there loves him. nothing we didn't already know.

weather right now is "-2f, feels like -24f" and i'm here to say: those feel the same, we're out of temperature-feels.

my wife does not appreciate my referring to the cat going to the basement to loudly yell as "the boy going downstairs to post on his alt-right message boards again"

just watching the GIVE THEM STEEL LADS video again, as one does

there's truly some z-tier comfort-slop procedural tv being made these days. i'm talking "a major villain is named Colonel Lazarus" level Real Stupid Shit. this is necessary to the tv ecosystem

the New Cat (we got a new cat), Lord BEEFTANK, will scream at you until you follow him to the basement and stand at the top of the basement stairs while he goes down to use the litter box. a simple man of simple needs.

i believe the soul is real but only for most dogs and some cats

if they just want to pump out increasingly self-derivative fantasy pap, it's probably cheaper to hire chris avellone than do this

the only good AI is dead AI, this is a Butlerian Jihad account

seeing today that people (gamblers, the inveterate scum of the earth) are mad at the packers for kicking a field goal because it hurt their betting lines we gotta start cutting off hands here

need to go to dc in a few months, very very not looking forward to it

my offer to the first nation to perform a decap strike against america: i will learn your language and only speak english in the privacy of my home, if you'll permit it.

the best part of my daily bike ride isn't the gradual health gains, but watching australian tv shows and doing a leo point at people i recognize from other shows, and, rarely, locations i recognize from the melbourne trip. today, i am a global citizen.

back at work and realizing they call them "stakeholders" because you need to find them in their coffins and do what must be done, before they come find you.

only fireworks i've heard were very loud and very "at 11:30" so i'm wondering if the city's usual show messed something up tonight

inshallah may 2026 see all my enemies vanquished as ohio state has been

this is what they leave folded on the coffins of stripper cops who die in the line of duty

college football, where you can hear "the imperial march from star wars, but put a lil stank on it" in response to an incomplete pass

arch manning is the mirror universe shedeur sanders: nepo hire who gets better the more you yell at him. big future with profound psychological damage ahead for the kid

thinking about going back to work on friday and getting so depressed that i'm rooting for there to not be a 2026

wake up dead man, a review about as catholic as a jrpg final boss, about as over-long, but more entertaining. recommend.

fantastic last drive-in christmas on shudder this year. terrible but watchable movies, and it's funny to see less than a year of trump term 2 has taken joe bob briggs from kind of boomer-lib mostly-left-with-random-center-right-opinions to "zohran, let ME man the guillotine" leftist

shows where the final season/finale were so bad they ruin the idea of a rewatch: - supernatural - you - sex education - dexter (twice!) - true blood - <insert thing you watched and i didn't, like game of thrones, how i met your mother, etc.> real "sometimes dead is better" trends here

people say the pop tarts like it when That happens to them but if i bring it up about the military bowl people get mad

something deeply satisfying about booting up the dead rising remaster and immediately having both the dormant muscle memory and the Systems Mastery kick in for a game i haven't played since it first came out. the kid's still in there, and he's still got it. still my least favorite in the series tho

i'm against the detroit lions for Playoff Picture Reasons but i feel bad for jared goff, because he's like a human unadopted shelter dog, and i think a 6-turnover game on christmas is going to get him euthanized

my wife got me a book signed to me with a lovely message from joe bob briggs, which makes my "pillow for your neck while playing stardew valley" feel like an insufficient response, as much as she swears she likes it

experienced the opposite of ego death during my tank time today, so that was cool

it truly was amazing how quickly youtube's business model shifted to "this is just an ad-streaming service unless you pay us or engage with increasingly esoteric adblocking strategies". absolute dogshit.

booking a sensory deprivation tank on christmas eve, many are calling me "the smartest to ever do it"

Weapons (2025)

first issue arrived today. hell yeah, what a sick idea.

Did you know: If you're mean enough to an automated drive-thru (without even saying anything overtly hostile! just bring a real "moments leading up to " tone), they will put a very apologetic real person on instead. You can condition institutions away from using this shit.

watched a long video about a 750-day ribeye dry age. fascinating explanation of the process and what happens then watched the shorter taste test where they cooked a steak off of it and almost vomited from the taste. A+ payoff

people who have hated the story of the last few wow expansions are eating well on the successful yarn-boarding that the guy everyone hated was, actually, to blame for reusing a bunch of kingdoms of amalur lore stuff once he got narrative lead responsibilities. i am one of these people. yum

this shit is so funny. putting aside the high likelihood this guy's just a liar, it's a situation where -- look. batman has a no kill rule. makes a huge deal of it. why's that? it's because batman really, really, really wants to kill people and knows he shouldn't. superman just doesn't kill people

hopeful that the biggest trend in ai for 2026 is "sam altman begging in the woods like miller's crossing"

Sora, generate the events of the movie The Sadness but with the cast of Kingdom Hearts. thank you

unreasonably excited about this being the first morning this week where i haven't had to shovel the sidewalk

Imagine if Calvin's Dad had to read the news from an algorithm in 2025 and the next Sunday comic it's just seven panels of him polishing a rifle in the garage under a single dangling bulb

i can tell that WoW housing has successfully captured the feeling of homeownership, because whenever i make any reasonable amount of gold from an activity my first thought is "i'm just gonna end up spending this on my house" and i immediately do

"didn't see the movie but i'm giving it a 1-star review" mindset has come to fucking. sour grapes level 2

describing warframe sometimes feels like you're explaining some bullshit iceberg chart dec 2024: they made a monster boy band and you hunt them down while they sing full original songs dec 2025: they have for-real werner herzog whispering to you while you fight Evil Sun Catholicism Level 3

goblins probably have the traditional p & v situation, but kobolds are absolutely rocking cloacas, we can all agree on this right?

packers winning on an endzone interception is one of those things that 1. only happens to the bears 2. ensures maximum screaming from packers fans so it should've been obvious before we started that this was going to be the outcome

"You're the Worst" was right, i've gotten to the age where i'm listening to LCD Soundsystem.

update here: they baked chocolate chip cookies and brought a box over to us, STILL WARM FROM THE OVEN, tonight. virtue is NOT its own reward folks. rewards are
