New post! It's time for R. L. Stine's Goosebumps: Return of the Mummy, in which beloved characters return, academics debate, and, wait, what happened to that guy? #goosebumps #books #📚💙 #booksky #90s open.substack.com/pub/amyacowa...

Like, I want to keep up with you, but do you really need to send me an email every day? Every day? EVERY DAY!?!

WHAT HAVE I DONE

We have a guest in the house tonight. Asked if he could “lurk creepily in the dark.” We said ok but regret it now.

Not in the mood

I think about this comic all the time.

Hey #ComicSky, welcome to #WolverineWednesday

Sentence fragment #bookreview of Uketsu's Strange Pictures: Improves on the first novel. Great twists and turns. Loved puzzling out the plot. 4.75/5 #📚💙 #books bookshop.org/a/80100/9780...

One line review of Gravity Falls: Journal 3: This book is inscrutable to anyone who hasn't seen the show, so it's perfect. However, I would have chosen a different font. #books #gravityfalls #bookreview #📚💙 bookshop.org/a/80100/9781...

PSA for WrestleMania week in Vegas. Please spread the word itspronouncednevada.com 🤼🤼‍♀️🤼‍♂️

There is no McTry.

I didn't expect to be CALLED OUT today...

TOMORROW: Be a part of history! Show the world that the majority of Americans oppose the most corrupt, inept, criminal, orange "president" in U.S. History. NO KINGS. Also: NO SERIAL LIARS/CONVICTED FELONS/ADJUDICATED RAPISTS & NO ILLEGAL WAR IN IRAN Be there. Make your voices heard! 🇺🇸 ✊ #NO_KINGS

Michael B. Jordan should get two #Oscars.

"No to war... and free Palestine" Javier Bardem

Whoever is in charge of the playoff music at the #Oscars needs to cool it. The best part is the thank you speeches. If you need to cut time, cut a prewritten bit, not the most human part of the ceremony.

I was driving home from picking up food yesterday and a chicken was crossing the road in front of me and the idea of experiencing a street joke in real time made me feel like I was losing my marbles

Haha, Markwaynemullin doesn’t know it’s now his job to fuck Corey Lewandowski

I'm a notary public. I can fill out forms and check IDs. I took an oath to the Constitution of the United States AND the Nevada Constitution. How do I have more training than someone who carries a gun and works for the federal government?

You'll just be having a good time at home, and then some bitch ass does the shave and a haircut knock, and you *know* they have some bullshit to sell you. Do they think I'll be activated like Roger Rabbit and I'll jump out, sing "Twoooooo Biiittts," and then buy their solar panels?

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

TICK BONESTEEL

That’s no moon! Ahem. Sorry. I mean, that Snow Moon.

Oh man, this one hurts. Catherine O’Hara was an absolute comic genius. Just so sharp and always calibrated perfectly to the moment. Gone way too young. Rest in peace, you brilliant star.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

There's an ovulation app that advertised during the Dateline podcast, and my new conspiracy theory is that the app is actually an op that is going to get you to stop your birth control so that you'll accidentally get pregnant and have a stupid man's baby, and then steal your information and sell it.

I've never enjoyed a podcast segment where they talk to one of the host's kids. It's never been interesting, or insightful, or surprising, or funny. It's just some random shit where a kid laughs and says, "I don't knoooowwww." And the parents laugh. And the kid laughs some more. But *I'm* not.

OMG, fuck your baskets. My melamine sponges are just going to have to exist in their original packaging. I'm not buying a goddamn wicker basket.

The biggest thing I did in 2025 is like the 5000th thing on YouTube. Apparently subsequent likes will get rid of my oldest like and I hate that.

Yeah, especially since Moriarty keeps gaining sentience and attempting to kill Data.

Authors been dunking on this all day, but let me say to my fellow white men: there are roughly 95M of us in America. NINETY. FIVE. MILLION. If you can't answer the question of what makes YOU unique in the year of our Lord 2025, during peak Attention Economy, God help you cause less diversity won't.

Today is Boxing Day, so don’t forget to lace up your gloves and challenge your neighbor to a few rounds of the “sweet science”

When me and my sister were little kids we saw red lights shining into our bedroom window on Christmas Eve when we were trying to sleep. We thought it was Santa and Rudolph’s red nose, but in retrospect I’m pretty sure it was the cops lol

I make it a point not to make eye contact with the car next to me at a stop light because I'm afraid they'll think I want to drag race.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

STOP RESTING ON MY LAURELS

A lot of people are talking about their favorite @theonion.com articles and I really want to shoutout this article that @amyacowan.bsky.social and I have sent back and forth to each other over the years

@profanity.accountant OH great Bluesky account, how much do I swear?

I called both of my senators to encourage them to change their votes to no on the dumb pinky promise bill. Sucks that I have to do this on a Sunday night, but here we are.

If he keeps this shit up I’m gonna stop using my Renner App

SANDWICH TERRORISM IS NOW LEGAL?!?!

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life”

Congrats to our catboy!! #GrahaTia ❤️

JUST IN: Mamdani, a democratic socialist and state assemblymember, will make history as the first Muslim and South Asian person — as well as the youngest in over a century — to serve as New York City mayor.
