Here for the Crunchwrap Supreme movie with Timmy C and I Missed a Day of Skiing. Let’s see what the ping pong this is all about.

Nathaniel Rateliff and Teddy Swims singing next to each other with deep, DEEP Vs is basically porn.

I put on three layers, got on my bike, and cycled here in the 22° afternoon. Oh, the things I do for cheese!

Happy Saturday morning from the Sea Stories Lounge! Still in development!

Still time to celebrate!

I had to stop following this online barber because in his reels he was making every hot guy in the south look exactly like an otter just about to realize that twink death happened to two years ago.

Am I insane or could Spinderella and Marishka Hargitay be sisters?

Scary night: when I got home, my landlord called me into his apartment where his mother-in-law had collapsed and fallen out of her wheelchair. They asked me if I could do CPR, but she didn’t need it. She DID need me to hoist her off the floor and back into her chair as we waited for the paramedics.

Off to record back to back podcast episodes, but I need my go juice (PSL, still lingering) to do it. My trusty Springsteen button will save me!

I am so ready to design stuff for you guys!

Had trouble falling asleep last night due to my increasingly aging body and the attendant aches and twinges, but then the sweet release of sleep. Eight hours! Now up with coffee and readying my day for podcasts and Stranger Things. Huzzah!

Let's ALL actually click the box below and donate $10 or $20 to take the burden away from Bobby of the co-payment for his current hospital stay -- it's bad enough that he has to be in the hospital at this time of year! I'm really hoping you'll follow through and chip in $10 or $20 in the box below!

Writing the podcast we’re recording tomorrow. It’s a big one, part of our Season 9 series. This is what I do for our listeners!

UNDERRATED JOKE

The first painting of 2025 and the last painting of 2025.

Watching the documentary about the Eras tour is so thrilling. I really love seeing how something this massive came together. I can’t even imagine how much effort this took.

And then Travis Kelce has to come along and one-up history. smdh #redwoodtree #ainthardtosee

Start the new year off right with a brand-new Kevin Quigley Design! Starting a new podcast? Need a new logo for your business? Home bar sign? I can craft all of that for you and more! Check out my portfolio at KevinQuigleyDesign.com and let me know how I can design your dreams!

Up at a normal time, coffee in hand. It’s a whole day of writing - essay, podcast, blog. I’ll knock off before the night’s at-home festivities, but I’m pretty thrilled to be spending the last day of the year with my man and my writing. Let’s put this shiz to bed!

Out of the blue, a Wusong Tuesday. A last minute meet up of great friends and delightful beverages. What a terrific evening at my favorite local place, surrounded by some of my favorite people.

The last bit of furniture for Phase 2 of the Sea Stories Lounge. Phase 3 will include a matching rattan chair and ottoman, plus a side table. Have to wait on those due to post-Christmas funds, but loving my progress.

Slept in a little bit because I was restless last night and didn’t go to sleep until like four. But now I am up and at em, working on this essay and doing my research from primary sources.

@tombreihan.bsky.social, I’ve been thinking about your “Willow” article (which I really liked). Your thought about folklore and evermore not really being separate eras reminded me that the Beatles released Help!, Rubber Soul, and Revolver in 6 months intervals, and I’d consider those distinct eras.

This dude is still talking about Splash Mountain. What the actual fuck.

We’re just innocent men

Doing Art into the night. Wondering how many people know that my first home tiki bar is named for Scooby-Doo and that tgr lounge is named for a Sturgill Simpson song.

Spent the afternoon working on this new essay. Met Shawn for comics and various hijinx, as is our wont. Now blasting “Thunder Road,” the very soundtrack of joy, speeding toward a coffee shop where I intend to dedicate two full hours to art before knocking off for the night.

Chappell isn’t entirely unproblematic but she’s great for this!

I’ve already had my coffee today, worked on my essay, and invited my buddy Frank up to the Sea Stories Lounge to take some measurements for Phase 3. It’s been a large morning and I still have an afternoon to tackle!

We put in a lot of work on the Sea Stories Lounge today. The loveseat and boomerang table are now assembled and usable. The TV stand has a temporary grass front; I can’t replace the table, so I need to figure out how to use it best. More tapestry panels are on the way. I’m so ready for phase three!

The Sea Stories Lounge is shaping up…

I suspect a lot of people are very, very tired of grinning fascists playing in their faces, and since it's very difficult to hurt someone in life who has zero shame and the backing of billionaires, setting the record straight on their death is the closest most will ever get to any kind of justice.

Do you want your book to sell? DO NOT LET AI WRITE YOUR BLURBS OR YOUR PROMOTION OR YOUR MARKETING

Welcome to Sunday! Sweatpants, Your 45s Are 50, lazy easing in. Shawn and I are both in superhero shirts (he’s got Spider-Man)!

The frangipane and coconut scent is on the air. The sound of Martin Denny drifts over the surf. The Mystery Cove is beautiful, dark, and delicious. Saturdays exist for hedonism and a little bit of quiet joy.

The Mystery Cove is open tonight! It’s time for a Port Au Prince and a Shark’s Tooth! What a delightful Saturday!

Welcome to Saturday. I want cheese!

Reading Stephen King’s It at different stages has been continually illuminating.

Describe your Bluesky account in a single image

I love @pastemagazine.bsky.social but I’m pretty sure them putting Life of a Showgirl on their worst list this year is going to eventually seem as shortsighted as Rolling Stone ranking Pinkerton as the worst of the year.

This Christmas, I got a LOT of Edmund Fitzgerald stuff. Perfect for the Sea Stories Lounge. Nautical/Polynesian/Kevbot whimsy, all coming together as I sloooowly build this thing out.

For all the newcomers here: please post regularly. I'm tired of dudes migrating here, posting once every other month, and then going back to Twitter complaining that Bluesky is dead. Please repost your friends' stuff too.

It’s Shawn’s birthday! We have BBQ and Stranger Things plans! We are playing with all our new toys! It’s Bowling Shirt Day! It’s Cedar Point Mug Day!! IT’S FRIDAY!!! #partyandpartyandyeah

The original Betty Boop, the first four Nancy Drew books and Greta Garbo's first talkie are among the many works from 1930 that will be free to use, share and remake starting on Jan. 1. n.pr/4scrT9d

A book on cheese! A new jacket! A faux, leopard print rug! Wisconsin cheese! What more could a boy ask for?

There’s a theme for Christmas Eve.

The Christmas Cove is lit and beautiful on Christmas Eve. Still hectic but isn’t it delightful!? Festive and frugal!

Shawn has to work today, so we’re having our usual morning time at Starbucks together before he heads off and I head home. Happy Christmas Eve!!

Every just be like, wow Stephen King was a snack in the 80s?

Hey, it’s Dad on Christmas Adam Day!
