What would I want AI to do for me? I am a writer so I have thousands of transcripts. I don’t want it to write for me. I want it to create a Wikipedia for me. We’re talking character summaries, storylines, this date in history. Complete with hyperlinks. I‘d be impressed with that.

I love Stand by Me. The Princess Bride? A standout classic that goes on many Must See Lists. But if I had to pick one film that Rob Reiner directed that I love it is the much reviled North. Roger Ebert made it a big joke that he hated the film. It's cheesy as fuck. But by golly Elijah Wood. 🎥

President Donald Trump will address the nation tomorrow at 9pm. This is opposed to the normal times he does this which is constantly.

Newest Platinum medal in #PokemonGo is a good one.

20 BOYS WITH THE CHARACTERISTICS OF WOLVES by Unknown Mortal Orchestra 19 Disease by Lady Gaga 18 Crystalized by John Summit ft. Inéz 17 meet me on the roof by DWLLRS 16 HOTBOX by Lil Naz X 15 As Alive As You Need Me To Be by Nine Inch Nails

Sure, it’s not nearly as fun as having someone assigned to butter your muffin, but Wet Leg’s song Catch These Fists will put you on your back foot. #LevelUp I post my Top 20 of 2025 tomorrow! 🎶

Look if Trump wants to take responsibility for the murder if Rob Reiner and his wife, we should go ahead and toss him in prison for that too.

Do not download Hogwarts Legacy on the Epic Games Store. I do not care if it’s free. Slungus

John Cena finally giving up is a message from the MAGA-infused WWE/TKO to tell us all we also must finally give up. 🤼

The world has pretty much forgotten about Lil Nas X. Even a drug-induced naked arrest didn’t really spark much interest. I didn’t forget. Lil Nas X does have a song in my Top 20 Songs of 2025. He previously nabbed the top spot back in 2021 with That’s What I Want. I’ll post the list on Tuesday. 🎶

At $6 I’m fairly certain I’d rather have actual KFC than an ugly ass Christmas tree ornament. But that’s just me.

This is a hot #PokemonGo take but I prefer the incubator to the Lucky Trinket. Pokecoins were the obvious choose your own prize option too.

There are two artists that made both my Top 20 of 2024 and 2025 lists. Yes, of course, Taylor Swift is one of them. 🎶

don't claim it. doesn't matter that it's free. Don't.

Um… no?

Someone was asking for help at work, upset they ran into people who spoke Spanish. I was like aw, what’s up? They said “fucking Joe Biden got them all here to replace the Blacks.” I said I’m not gonna help you either if you keep that up. He did shut up. But like also, what?!

This year, my Top Songs of the Year will be filled with more popular artists than ever. This isn't inharently a good or bad thing. I wasn't doing as much musical discovery as I normally do, having put a pause on curating my public playlist #TheTwenty. DWLLRS is the least popular group at 265k. 🎶

Letterbox’d opened a movie rental store on the app today. It has two tiers currently. One is Lost & Found where passed over, yet highly rated films live. The other is Unreleased Gems where festival faves exist. These are dramatically higher priced. But if it’s something you really want to see? 🍿

I am all for crediting all artists, but... Soda Pop by Saja Boys ft. Andrew Choi, Neckwav, Danny Chung, Kevin Woo, samUIL Lee, and Kpop Demon Hunters Cast? Y'all... (My Top 20 of 2025 is coming.) 🎶

In the Christmas song Do You Hear What I Hear, the lyric mentions a child shivering in the cold. But then says we will bring him silver and gold. Like that is supposed to help? He’s in a fucking manger because of discrimination policies of hotels! 🎶

In the wretched song I’ll Be Home For Christmas, one of the lyrics offers the demand, “please have snow.” As if I control the weather. 🎶

You will be revisited by those same three spirits as last year. Is your body ready?

I go to Starbucks for the baristas. Not the corporation. Union locations are on strike. So that makes things a bit tricky. Today I’m at a Capital One Cafe. I am still only here for the barista. Not the corporation. I flat out boycott only one company: Amazon. Because they don’t have baristas.

Parents suing the school for not using their kid's birthname/pronouns is fairly awful when you realize it's not because they support their transgendered kid... but the opposite. archive.ph/202512081947...

Texas Gov. Abbott wants every school to have a Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA chapter. And he'll look into punishing anyone who tries to block such a thing. So far, there has been no such thing. Partly because the right to assembly exists, partly because no one knows who Charlie Kirk is.

Greeted with this nonsense tonight upon getting off work, I decided fuck that and submitted to an Uber instead. All of this angst over a 10 minute ride by car, if only I had one. #Houston Metro just ain’t with it right now.

It has taken some time, but we are currently out of both #Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 consoles. There are two OLED models and several Lite colors available. It’s interesting to see Switch 1 selling as it is now priced higher than it started and is obviously a bad deal at this point.

The only real good thing that I can say happened today was being able to evolve Umbreon, Espeon, and Sylveon dynamax versions all in one day due to the eased requirements. #PokemonGo Everything else? I mean it’s retail in December with a boss I do not like even a little bit.

Buddy, where are going? Get back on the route!! #Houston Metro is something I do support, praise often, but when they get it wrong? They really get it wrong.

Wait so the Kyurem in #PokemonGo raids now aren’t the right ones to give the energy needed to fuse with another Pokemon I don’t currently have? See this is what happens when I run out of casual dex entries to fill.

For sale: Pre-tangled Christmas lights.

Of course I am #TeamDano. His second friggin movie L.I.E. and the kid is going toe-to-toe with the great Brian Cox. 🍿

USA Today running a story asking the question: Are you getting a $2,000 tariff dividend check? The first paragraph should have been a very simple answer: No. But alas, it has to pretend to legitimize Trump before getting to the point. He cannot without Congress. Nevermind tariffs are taxes we pay.

A charter city on the island of Roatán (near Honduras), Próspera sure would make for a new set up following the oh-so-tragic loss of Epstien‘s Pedophile Island, wouldn’t it? And you’ll never guess who Trump pardoned yesterday. That’s right! The former president of Honduras!

Wikipedia reports that the #1 thing searched for in English in 2025 was Charlie Kirk. I presume the search was prompted by the relatable question, “Who the fuck was Charlie Kirk?”

The only one that mattered. anisota.net/harvest

“The designers, builders, make-up, wardrobe team, cinematographers, composers, editors, this tribute belongs to all of them. I would like to extend our gratitude and say: Fuck AI.” -- @realgdt.bsky.social, director. Can't be said any more clearer than that! Continued luck in Awards Season.

While I am loathe to recommend any story from NYT, this Wirecutter article about the not-delightful world of buying mystery returns is important. Short Version: It's trash. It's trash packed in trash with more trash. So much trash. archive.ph/202511200723...

I dunno, Colin, maybe you should send me $5 this time. What a terrible fundraising text. #Texas

How many Link amiibos are there? Eight!

Why is there so much fucking Grinch merchandise? Are you people buying it all, like, ironically? What’s wrong with you guys?

December 1st is World AIDS Day. It’s a manageable disease. There are prevention medications. But there is still no cure. Worse, the Trump administration has killed all of our support for global help in continuing to fight the numbers. So take a moment today and do a bit of reflection, won’t you?

I’ve never been much to name my Pokemon. But in #PokemonGo, I have decided I will give my buddy Pokemon names.

Such a downer. Just like our economy!

They say this teaches numbers, colors, coordination. All I see is loot box training for toddlers!

Alright, time for go to bed. The next date I look forward to is December 8th. It's a sort of mid-month extra off day strategetically placed between now and Christmas.

The US State Department informed its employees and grant recipients not to promote World AIDS Day. The day of reminder is December 1st and has been noted since 1988 Remember: Trump cancelled funding foreign AIDS programs, research and prevention resources, and cut funding to our own HIV program.

Remember how companies got us to line up in the pre-dawn hours on #BlackFriday to consume when we’d normally be doing something else?

Humans are so silly. Like.. how is it that you can like someone so much you just want to lick them places?

Look, I can’t talk because I’ve only watched the 1st season of #StrangerThings. I loved it so much, I‘ve been wary watching more. That a series is getting a finale on #Netflix at all is astounding. This never happens. People are going to hate it though. That’s definitely happens. A lot. A lot.
