hello an important Christmas movie PSA: Little Women (1994) is streaming on Netflix

Are these the same companies that told us the robot could do it?

proof the universe hates me: there isn’t a single theater screening Merrily We Roll Along within 30 miles of Athens

The BEST Waffle House in Athens, GA was #48 in Five Points. It opened 10 months later on December 10, 1968 and closed on June 25, 2018. RIP.

Since this information has been hard to find, let me put it here so the internet will remember. The first Waffle House in Athens, GA was #33 on West Broad. It opened February 16, 1968 and closed April 16, 2000. Thanks to Caroline at Waffle House corporate for this valuable information.

CAN I GET A HELL YEAH, BROTHER

I had shingles at 24 and afterwards begged my doctor to give me the vaccine, but she wouldn’t because of my age. But trust me when I say, you do not want shingles!

it’s the most wonderful time of the year … rat tok

BARK BARK BARK

If you’re at the game, it’s pronounced: ‘HEY BAMA, WE JUST BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOU!!!!!’

SHOW ME EVERY SAD BAMA FAN IN THE CROWD RIGHT NOW

I’ve become someone who drinks bone broth via powder packets like a liquid IV … AMA

Most offensive headline yet in the New York Times www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/d...

lol … lmao even

It’s finally “white boy wearing shorts when it’s too cold out” season where I live

Imagine if they just subsidized newspapers and magazines the way they’re subsidizing this slop

the impending SEC championship can’t hurt me

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste

I want the Texas upset but I don’t want to have to play Bama next wknd help

The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln just ran a TV ad during the Husker game urging people to call regents and oppose the unit from being cut. That’s a new one for me.

do you think that Baudrillard ever thought someone would put the words sexy and simulacra together in an academic setting

We may live in hell but at least there are glimmers of a better world waiting to be born www.cnn.com/2025/11/24/s...

my potentially hot take is that it’s weird how normalized we’ve allowed bringing pillows and blankets into the movie theater … I’m all for dressing comfy to enjoy a movie but this is next level

"Parasocial bonds with technology aren't a personal failing; they're an expected outcome of systems built to optimize attention and retention." I’m quoted in Star today about how AI systems are built to feel familiar and likable through social cues. starmagazine.com/parasocial-r...

help I just realized Rufus Sewell and Ioan Gruffudd are two different actors

if you see someone crying at the Georgia game, it’s probably me thinking about how this is probably my last football season living in Athens

hot (?) take: Lisa Frankenstein was a more compelling take on Mary Shelley’s novel than the new Del Toro adaptation

I know this is just how academia works, but it’s truly baffling that I started the initial version of this D.H. Lawrence paper for a seminar class in November 2023 and here I am, two conference versions of it later, still tweaking (2 years later!) it in the hopes of publication.

for reasons I can’t even properly articulate, Robin McKinley’s THE HERO AND THE SWORD altered my pre-teen brain irrevocably, as did THE BLUE SWORD when I read it

I rarely read literary fiction, but 'Never Let Me Go' by Kazuo Ishiguro is one of the great works of art of our age, a book so powerful I had a physical reaction to it

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

breaking: cnbc has discovered the popularity of oversized Comfort Colors tees … something you’ve been able to find on every Greek Life student on an SEC campus for decades now (this has @amandamull.bsky.social’s name all over it)

she’s ready for Halloween

I’m crashing out at levels never before seen right now over this news. apnews.com/article/adam...

go dawgs woof woof woof

if anyone asks, I never doubted the Bulldogs once

They’re putting photos of 5-year-old Gunner Stockton hugging Uga on the screen. LORE KING activated.

well hot dang y’all

I see we’ve upgraded ourselves from being a second half team to being solidly a 4th quarter team, huh.

UGA athletic director Josh Brooks or Texas Senator Ted Cruz? The world may never know.

it’s been a big day for me

but pawl, you ain’t never even been in politics before www.si.com/fannation/co...

why does god allow me to suffer like this

Wow it's so crazy there's no UGA game this week. I could have sworn this wasn't another bye, but nope. No Georgia football to watch this week.
