I thought Noah Kahan was like 18 and instead he’s just a guy

finally giving Nightreign a shot for the first time since the network test

Today an AI chatbot invited itself to my meeting and emailed me a summary, where it categorized its own presence as invoking “curiosity and amusement, but no concern”, even though most of the conversation was me saying I didn’t want it there and couldn’t figure out how to turn it off.

Not feeling especially feminine this trans day of visibility, or particularly interested in being visible, or particularly happy about anything, but at least this shirt makes my boobs look nice

This is Pulitzer shit right here.

First contact but the aliens haven’t ever been here before and didn’t know about us. Just some guys passing through on a detour.

I first became aware of Andy Weir through his short story "The Egg", a not-particularly-original thought experiment in the vein of classic short sci fi that does not seem particularly interested in its own moral implications. Doesn't surprise me that he doesn't see any politics in his own work.

I like Marathon and I like that it’s difficult but I think they if they added a PvE focused solo queue it would make a lot of people happy without heavily fragmenting the player base - more of a less stressful version of running Rook, maybe with less valuable loot.

If Epic is laying off all their talent someone needs to round them up for a true Unreal Tournament successor

Both the highest quality and least believable version of this scam that I’ve received

It's impressive that someone born without a spine could survive as long as Gavin Newsom. He's like 5000 in jellyfish years, a wise elder statesman floating in the sea.

in 2016 I met a Flat Earther at a Grimes show and looking back on it now that's some great foreshadowing from the first season

as a middle aged man in the airport it is my sovereign duty to block the entire departures board with my body while I try to remember alphabetical order a few inches away from it

The only thing a president is allowed to share on social media should be music recommendations. I doubt Trump’s would be any good but they’d be a lot better than what we have now

Fucking up air travel over Spring Break just because you’re pissed off at Democrats doesn’t really seem like a winning strategy.

Late night flight home got delayed a few hours but I’m still glad I’m not flying tomorrow though

it feels about 20 years late but I'm very glad we got to hear Aaron Turner front a Neurosis album

Honestly pretty on-brand for MAGA to think the world revolves around their perception of it. He doesn’t remember being between point A and B so he must have never been there, and is instead the victim of magic

if you aren't using guanciale it isn't authentic carbonara anyway, so don't let anyone shame you for adding peas

He's on his third Nazi controversy at least, and some of you are saying that is not enough Nazi controversies to convince you there is a problem. Look inward! Platner in Jan 2026: "As a longtime fan of the show..." Valhalla VFT in October 2025, November 2025, December 2025:

The first time I ever went into a Hobby Lobby, the first thing I saw was a pillow with Ronald Reagan’s face on it, and I knew it wasn’t the place for me.

Been Caught Stealing by Jane’s Addiction. Used to play several times a day in San Diego radio and I’d change the station as soon as I heard the dogs barking.

I don't think he's the most evil person in the administration, but has there even been a more pathetic, cowardly worm in power than Marco Rubio? I hope he doesn't feel any emotion other than shame and fear for the rest of his life.

I think it's awesome that lowercase got back together and kinda funny that their first release in 25 years is a Pink Floyd cover

Lucky pull on Kurt Russell’s birthday

It’s pretty embarrassing that it takes a massive geopolitical fuckup to get Trump to face any accountability whatsoever, but it really does feel like they’re letting him loose for maximum carnage now that they know he’s going down and will be blamed for everything.

Tricking work into thinking I’m productive by getting my work done

its a shame Cryptopsy put out two all time great death metal albums in the 90s and then just ceased to exist

Gonna wake up to good news, I feel it in my bones (I’m really high)

Been waiting a long time for this to get a reissue and it’s a delight

It makes sense for cave living but once Gollum started hanging out with other people they really should have given him clothes. There’s no reason to be nude.

One of the survival horror enemies in resident evil 9 is a giant baby whose catchphrase is “don’t fuck with me!”

I know between Unreal Engine and Fortnite they have no reason to devote any money to it, but I can't believe Unreal Tournament completely died and nothing has really taken its place. I need team death match, capture the flag, bombing run, etc. without a hero shooter package or military flavor.

Ken Paxton and his friends are terrified of trans masc children presenting androgynously because they want to fuck little girls

The first episode of Gilmore Girls ends with Rory ordering chili cheese fries and coffee and that seems like a recipe for a massive post-credits shit.

If there were two strong left wing anti-MAGA candidates and one of them were named Brandon I think that could tip the scales in their favor

The Last Drive-In is ending which means I don’t have to hear otherwise progressive people explain why it’s ok to write for Taki’s Magazine as long as you also like to talk about scary movies in a bolo tie.

Which member of Trump’s cabinet is most likely to Bud Dwyer themselves? My money is on Pete Hegseth

fun Enigma of Amigara Fault reference in Slay the Spire 2

Took time off work for a trip that got canceled, only to have it unexpectedly coincide with Slay the Spire 2 and Marathon coming out

Kusanagi, Hiruko, and Tokugawa Kunimatsu in Nioh 3 might be the most trying set of (nearly) back-to-back bosses I've ever fought. They really want to keep you from getting to the last area.

Thanks to Reddit changing their algorithm and showing me subreddits I do not follow, I’ve discovered a large portion of the internet whose main takeaway from the BAFTA incident is delight that a white man got the n word pass and anger at anyone upset.

Ariel Pink / Kid Rock collab when?

Do you think Fetterman is actively vying for a Big Oaf Award or at his level of notoriety is he more the assumed presenter?

Been playing ARC Raiders and Hunt Showdown and I think the main thing holding the extraction shooter genre back is they rely way too much on emergent gameplay rather than filling the map with meaningful things to do. Like they built a sandbox and didn’t quite figure out how to fill it yet.

Fell on my ass and fucked up my back on my way out the door, granting my monkey’s paw wish of not having to go to work

My prediction isn’t worth much but I highly doubt they’re going to nuke the filibuster for the SAVE act. They’re already lacking legitimacy, a chaotic midterm election with their fingerprints all over it would not go in their favor.

for how distinct its combat is from other soulslikes I think it's funny that the one place Nioh 3 is really sticking to its roots is treating water like a bottomless void you sink like a brick into

The third season of Veronica Mars is definitely a step down in quality from the first two but it’s great to see Patrick Fabian and Ed Begley Jr together a decade before Better Call Saul.

Every gas pump still says “lift the handle” even though I haven’t used one with a handle to lift in years.
