i just think that i should not be back in the office less than 12 hours after i left it

is it good when someone greets you at 11am with "you have a long day today"

It's the veggie gang's birthday!

Good morning. One of the funnest facts there is. www.businessinsider.com/george-const...

Just thinking again about how when Gregg Popovich changed roles at the Spurs after his stroke, Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobli appeared with him as it got revealed that they work with Pop every single day in his recovery, because they love him and want to be there for him the way he has been for them.

It’s funny ‘cause it’s true.

In the DS9 episode Take Me Out to the Holosuite, they made Rom left handed because his actor, Max Grodenchik, played baseball in college and in the minor leagues. He couldn't make his body play baseball badly, so they had him play with his off hand so Rom could be convincingly bad at the game.

the Knicks are leading 60-19, which is actually higher than the scoring margin on the scoreboard in this Space Jam gag before it says "kinda one sided isn't it"

Nba needs a mercy rule

playoff gritty is a revelation

Lmaoooo I LOVE HIM www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

the thing is I like all this stuff. I like the hot honey and ricotta slices. I like the turmeric brussels sprouts. I like the corporate slop bowls. it's either my least or most pretentious opinion that most of this food is actually pretty good.

Some may recall that Valentina and I had an after work routine where we would snuggle and I would tell her about my day and she would purr and pat my hand. These guys just give me side eye and are clearly wondering when we can just go play

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

I wanted to pitch a sort of "Margin Call" in the Purge Universe, where the Lehman Brothers proxy was putting together its regulatory liquidity statement on the evening when all crimes were legal.

ugh that picture of the veggie lads broke containment

There was a bug

Good statement. Everyone (including fans) need to chill the fuck out.

I have a hard few weeks on deck and am once again asking to switch places with sweet baby pickles

Was starting to explain Comic Con/Artist Alley to my very normie psychiatrist last week and she was like “I know about that, my job is to talk to neurodivergent people all day”.

It was shearing day at the farm and I got to be on baby watch for a while. Skirted 4 fleeces, found a fiber guild to try, came home and slept for 4 hours.

Pour one out for the Hilton staff who are working perhaps the worst shift in food service history rn.

*incredible* ten minutes for this rule

Possibly the best thing in Moma's current Duchamp show is this 1913 newspaper cartoon poking fun at his "Nude Descending a Staircase"

Thinking about buying the kittens a bubble machine for their birthday

"I'm only going to get two books. And no stickers" is a crazy thing to tell yourself on indie bookstore day

“In the future everyone loves and does art but they are incredibly bad” is lowkey an extremely hopeful utopian vision

Blown away by the short story "Termination Stories for the Cyberpunk Dystopia Protagonist" (@isabel.kim). It's a SUPER meta narrative where a self-aware embodiment of genre tropes maneuvers to preserve the fake life she's come to enjoy. Early Gibson + "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead"(ish). 🤌

the Denver Nuggets are once again giving me psychic damage by forgetting how to play basketball in the playoffs.

The cool thing about Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is that the show decides to situate the gang in a town that is running a tourism scam, so the kids all slowly learn their parents are all con artists pretending to be ghouls and ghosts to spook tourists. I’ll never get over that clever tweak

I had a bad day and now I have to cook???????

Anyway, I am a museum enthusiast and stealing from public institutions then selling those historic works of art to evil, rich people who will stash them away where no one can see them makes me very angry

New episode! We're joined by @garethdennis.uk of the @railnatter.uk to talk all about the intersection of trains and rockets. Or try to. We got into some weird space stories that are train-related. open.spotify.com/episode/7JXB...

This is so Wes Anderson, I can almost hear the affectless Jason Schwartzmann voiceover saying "My mother used to design undercover disguises for the Stasi"

Carrot got a new box less than 10 minutes ago but he takes his job at the cardboard confetti factory very seriously

some highlights from my current conversation with old car guy volunteers: (talking about a model t operator) "can she crank it?" "oh yeah she cranks it" (speaking about a man in his 80s) "idk if he's still good to drive, we'll have to ask his mother"

why are ai folks so bent about me hating it. fine, i'll fall behind! let me!!! fuck off!!!!

Is planning a casino heist the cure for male loneliness

Two copy editors high-fiving so hard right now

Same, baby dude, same

In case you were wondering, the difference between a backlit photo of a white lamb and a brown lamb is that one is an angel and the other is an omen.

I thought this point Eric made about how libraries are early introductions to a social contract was really interesting, too:

the procrastinator prepares for a manic burst of “productivity” to spare the ego

birds: they will never email you. and that’s a promise.

My little suggestion today is that if you have to read a T.S. Eliot poem you put, “Girl,” in front of the first line & read the rest in the voice of a drag queen reading someone to filth.

The First WORLD FENCING LEAGUE is happening April 25th!!! I'M GEEKING!!! Japanese engineers developed this "Sword Tip Visualisation" tracking technology specifically for this event that will make it so much easier for the average person to see what's going on! I MUST WATCH THIS ENTIRE TOURNAMENT

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means? ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

"The amount of water stored in the snowpack historically peaks around April 1. But this year, the snowpack in many places was absent, or nearly so, by then—the lowest level in the 45 years since automated measurements began," writes Anna Marija Helt @ahelt.bsky.social.
