#Columbo complete series DVD set showed up under the Christmas tree this year ❤️! Ripping the discs to Plex now so that I can dive in and enjoy some #classic #TV episodes. #70s #Detective

For those alone on Christmas. Keep in mine, that in the end, it's just a 24 hour day, like all of the others. Enjoy the lights, if you like lights. Drink plenty of water. Go for a walk, if you can. We've got 364 days that aren't Christmas. You count.

I do a weekly newsletter that's a little about charts and a lot about shit I am thinking about/want to joke about. I plug it a medium-lot, I guess, but I think it's pretty good? Maybe you will, too. Here's last week's: www.howtoreadthisch.art/data-is-anti...

October 30, 1959: Twilight Zone's "Walking Distance," airs. A harried executive visits his hometown years later and finds it unchanged — and ends up meeting himself as a boy, along with his late parents. Stars Gig Young and Frank Overton, with a lovely score by Bernard Herrmann.

In case you were out of pocket yesterday afternoon: the second edition of my free newsletter came out. It’s ostensibly about data visualization, but the charts are a Trojan horse for commentary and jokes. Perhaps you’ll enjoy it! www.howtoreadthisch.art/the-ebbs-and...

@plex.tv Please fix your new Roku app interface. Playlists help me sleep through the night. In the prior app, I could navigate the playlist while half asleep with the TV turned off (only audio). That's not possible with the new interface. Playlists are buried. This is a very big deal.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you?

Trans rights are, in fact, human rights. Pass it on.

I stand with @pbs.org and their efforts to carry on the legacy of the CPB. "For $5/month or $60/yr you get access to PBS Passport and the entire Masterpiece library plus Great Performances, etc. Defunded but not defeated." www.pbs.org/passport/lea...

TV stars were ubiquitous back in the day and kids knew them even if we were too young for their show. They were on variety, talk, and game shows, LOVE BOAT, FANTASY ISLAND, and TV movies, posters, t-shirts and magazines. The world was smaller then and stars like Loni Anderson made lasting impacts.

I bet my fiancée that this picture of our cats could get 10 billion reposts on Bluesky. She said she doesn't believe me. She said there aren't even 10 billion people on Earth. She said it concerns her that I struggle so hard to comprehend large numbers. Let's prove her wrong everyone. Repost away.

Listening to Patti LaBelle's "Stir It Up" over and over is the boost of happy that I needed today. And Beverly Hills Cop only adds to the happiness.

This weekend's tune out and chill throwback song for me was Don Williams' "I Believe In You". So smooth, and lyrics that are more important than ever today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Nu7...

Would love feedback. Getting ready to publish The Game Route Project, a map of every independent video game store in America. FAQ linked below. Should I put any more time into? Please repost and follow if you think it’s worthwhile. #videogames www.game-route.com/game-route-project-faq

Pat Benetar's Precious Time popped into my head earlier this week, so I've been revisiting her hits. Never made it to her concerts as a teen, but loved the songs. Watching recent videos of her and Neil Giraldo brought me much happiness. And her smile is still infectious. Thanks, Pat. I needed this.

Found a Blu-ray set of Star Trek: Discovery in my stocking this morning. It's been another wonderful Christmas.

On Usenet I loved to browse, read, learn, listen, and occasionally comment. My first few weeks on Bluesky remind me of that experience, but with the added advantage of troll blocking. Really enjoying the breadth of information and the diversity here.
