The world has gone mad so here’s some Flintstones with flaming sousaphone. Band is me, Jake Chapman, Josh Starkman and David Silverman!

Aw, man. I haven't bought a mass-market paperback in years but this still makes me sad. I grew up on those things and used to do mass-market production for one of the big houses, back in the '90s. True crime, mysteries, romances, "instant" books… We really churned ’em out!

Peak TV: Watching the eternal Paul Lim, age 71, win a match at the #WorldDartsChampionship while thousands of costumed drunks go nuts behind him. Gotta love this time of year!

"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard

Peter Gallagher's work on Heathcliff is astonishing. The jokes are all so self-referential that it invites you to enjoy every one as an inside joke. When you are finally in on the joke, it feels kind of comforting. I don't know, It doesn't operate like a regular comic strip.

I run every day for 15 minutes. If I miss a day l add 15 minutes to the next day. This has truly been a game changer. Tomorrow I'm supposed to run for 3 months.

Rule of thumb: If you have to explain your slogan, it's a terrible slogan.

one insidious thing about gen AI is it's not just causing us to mistrust dodgy images, it's also making us mistrust images that look perfectly normal. this is gaslighting in a very literal sense bc the technology is undermining the trust we have in our own ability to perceive reality!

Reading Vol. 1 of Hirayasumi, my first-ever dip into “slice-of-life” manga, and it’s delightful. I’m hooked. What have I been missing all these years?!

I found a big sign at the thrift shop with some live/laugh/love stuff on it, so I painted over that with my to-do list. Feel free to make it yours, too.

True words. I repeat this quote often.

If pet *nicknames* count, then I can be BLACK FOXY OXY which sounds like a Pam Grier movie.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far. So much work remains to be done.

Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

Take a moment to think about what REALLY matters.

Still mad about blowing my crossword streak a few months ago, but making progress on the long road back!
