As a teenage boy watching reruns, I wanted more useful titles

Now take this test to prove you're human so you can earn our trust so you can use our artificial intelligence

So I started playing D&D out of curiosity after decades, and another player has long flowing hair & painted nails. Is this "transitioning" as the kids say? Then I realize with our combined advantage initiative ability, we can work together to ensure a sneak attack. Double damage, baby!

Introduce yourself with 10 acts you've seen live: Sparks The Police They Might Be Giants The Dandy Warhols Violent Femmes The Breeders Oasis Henry Rollins (spoken word only) Several live performances by MST3K people Girl in Iowa doing Jewel covers so badly RAGBRAI bicyclists cheered to support her

Black Belt Jones (1974) is the best movie ever made. If you take a drink every time someone gets kicked in the balls, you'll keep a buzz. Then you'll die of alcohol poisoning.

Currently watching Black Belt Jones (1974) and 5 minutes in and he fits dirty. He kicks a guy in the balls, then kicks him again in the balls. So far it's the best movie I've ever seen.

I saw some flowers on the shore of the Mississippi a couple days ago

uh is this thing on? Is this the slightly toasted Twin Cities feed?

"beautiful" by Joydrop is a lovely song www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6Ze...

After game music mix... I wanna shoop. If looks could kill, you would be Anubi

St. Paul Saints murderized Omaha 14 to 4 so here's a picture of me wandering around the parking lot of Union Depot

Good night for a Saints Game

I have arrived. Go Saints!

People by the cathedral putting on hats/gowns looking nervous/happy

I hate when a bus is 5min EARLY

People will blame AI for killing search engines, but I blame people. People are too lazy to scroll down a list of links and put in the effort to click on one. People will love having an instant cooing voice telling them what someone wants them to hear if it will save them a click.

Inspired to take a shot. On the lower right, light bouncing off Venus takes 8 min to reach us from the sun. On the upper left, light from the sun takes 43 min to reach Jupiter on the other side of the sun then 51 min to bounce back to us. Approximately.

Strangest summer job I had was to make a device to detect dark matter. Basically I had 3 months to win the Nobel Prize in Physics. I failed. I knew it was a ridiculous job, but I got paid. I periodically check, and teams of researchers have worked for decades on this project & still haven't done it.

Look at me. I'm eating avacado toast instead of buying $18 cocktails in Uptown. I'm destroying businesses like a millenial!

Remembering years ago when American billionaires were still considered geniuses and the whole world literally cheered for someone named "Captain America"

Brain full from watching video on Einstein's less famous paper. The math isn't even too complicated, just college level calculus. His strength was knowing a lot about physics and noticing which parts fit together to produce a new revelation. Albert Einstein was a genius. You heard it here first.

I was going to tell everyone we could use this rain, but Bluesky wouldn't let me.🤐😕😞

I mentioned those beagles rescued from Wisconsin and was reminded I met one of those beagles in the 90s, rescued by an animal lab worker. That place was pumping out beagles for a long time. Her name was Madonna & she was an angel.

Despite rain last night, the Mississippi was languid & low. Thirsty ground took water before making it to the river? Parts where swirling around and flowing backwards. If you look close, you can see 8 geese with over 30 goslings.

Didn't feel like it, but I forced myself to hike around Pike Island. The rain had left a moist & verdant landscape.

We could use this rain to wash away all the filth in the world

Two random heart songs back to back "Don't be a fool, don't be blind, heart of mine" "I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks"

Today's film haul (I'm getting in on @stevequick.bsky.social act) (not really, just got a film haul)

Apparently transit cops don't like the blue shirt ticket checkers. Bus stopped last night to wait for cops to remove loud passengers without tickets. Transit cops said nothing looks amiss & did nothing. They argued with each other & ticket checker apologized to passengers for cops not doing anything

Night after 10pm is different on a Friday night after a 85 degree day than a Tues night after a 65 degree day. I think I heard packs of people howling

a typical St. Paul condo

Been jonesing for a plain cake donut for a while so I went to A Baker's Wife's Pastry Shop. You have to ask & they have them hidden behind the counter. Mmmm clandestine donut...

Yummy yummy I've got wood in my tummy, says the BEAVER! That's crazy! I'm Brian Fellow!

Goose family in Fort Snelling State Park this morning

Saints game last night postponed so my Saints ticket tonight turned into a double header. No way I can make the Bluesky meetup now. Another social event successfully avoided!
