Nice of the US to lay out a nice rug for crypto…

Fighting the urge to order corned beef and cabbage from Shapiro’s for pickup for dinner tonight, and I really don’t know why I’m fighting it…

Dear @thetallblonde.bsky.social, Knowing you, you probably already know about this, but I've just learned of its existence and on the off chance you've not seen it, I had to be sure you know it exists. That is all.

Yesterday, it was 70 out, and today it’s nearly whiteout conditions outside my office window right now. I know Indiana weather is generally nuts, but damn.

Good.

I know the show's not everyone's favorite, but damned if that wasn't some damn fine Star Trek. Also, please more Reno. Like..."have Tatiana Maslany teach her clone shit" kinda more.

Can we please be done with cold for awhile?

I had gumbo from a tub, that I got from Costco, for dinner tonight. It was goooood.

Objectively correct statement. Though, having watched my someone go through similar and seen the dismissal and head pats she got from her doctor…I can see why it’s enticing.

Sometimes a book pops its head up, and I go, “Oh hello! I’m going to like you a lot!”

My birthday is in May.

People LOVE these characters. This book is just talking about their existence. What if we give them something to do?!

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

I wish I could say that I still "wonder" this any time that I watch the news...but...I mean...

I wrote a piece for @publisherswkly.bsky.social about how comics retailers have turned into influencers and YouTubers to promote comics, their shops and community super fun diving into the creative ways retailers get noticed online, including Bruce the Muppet from @thegeekerynj.bsky.social !!!

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

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

Sir, I have seen Up. And Toy Story 3. And Inside Out. And Coco. And Onward. You OWE my ass some goddamn therapy.

Re-watching old episodes of the Muppet Show tonight. Got to the Arlo Guthrie episode, and suddenly I think I know the answer to this question. ¡Olé!

Look, I freely admit to being so juvenile that I GIGGLED internally about buying food from a place called “Hotboys”…but also, goddamn.

Jimmy meets Carnage! Original art for the cover of the DC/Marvel crossover. If you are a verrrrrrry motivated collector, it’s available now, at #ECCC table K-01.

There is something very extremely satisfying about writing a SQL script on the fly and having it work properly the first time you execute…

Starfleet Academy looks like it's gonna end the season STRONG.

Hello. This is really good. That is all.

Ajinomoto Foods N.A. is recalling additional 33 million pounds of frozen ready-to-eat and not-ready-to-eat chicken and pork fried rice, ramen, and shumai dumpling products. Dates for TJ's chicken fried rice, vegetable fried rice, Japanese-style fried rice, and chicken shu mai in the link. #recall

Beyond hyped to let you all know that the first issue of IS TED OK? is getting a second printing with a new cover! I'm so tremendously grateful to everyone who bought it, read it, enjoyed it, and helped spread the word about this book. Means the world to me! @madcavestudios.com

So...Mullin seems about as sharp as your average bowling ball, but part of me finds it DEEPLY funny to put someone with a First Nations background in charge of deporting illegal aliens from the US.

Request: the counter for this report SPECIFICALLY should reset at the beginning of the month. Conversation I just had: this isn’t time-based, it’s running from projections that are not triggered by a calendar…how is this hard?

The SQL script that YOU asked me for specifically looks for items that meet very specific criteria and generates the report that YOU said you wanted. When you go in and change things in those items, they no longer meet that criteria, which is why they no longer show up in the report. Stop yelling.

Almost evacuated the building because someone smelled a “gas leak”. Turns out someone spilled gas on their shoe at lunch and tracked it into the stairwell. Because gas leaks smell like gasoline. …in our non-gas using building.

Accidentally bought an avocado that was not overly ripe, AND didn't cut the shit out of my hand! If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go buy a lotto ticket.

Dammit. I KNOW better than to go to the Popeye's on Madison. And I did it anyway. Be amazed if I don't break a tooth on these fries.

You ever make a bunch of food, so that you can have two night's worth of dinners...and then eat all of it?

This week's Starfleet Academy is honestly kinda beautiful. People who hate on this show are just joyless asshats.

Takes a bit to get to me, but this stuff is legit. Holy shit.

I don't have the same textural issues with raw chicken that some folks do, but I do appreciate food prep gloves.

I really need to get better about making real meals again, so that I can do things like...use up all my garlic before it starts to bulb...

This man is more American than any person in the current administration.

Paging @moviessilently.bsky.social

Me in the ticket: these two items present like this known scenario, but here is the data where I spent half an hour proving and documenting how this is something different that we need to fix. Dev response less than a minute later: This looks like than known scenario, did you check that first?

#TheRocketeer is back! Cliff Secord is recruited to lead a search & rescue mission for #AmeliaEarhart, while trying to win back his girlfriend. But what else awaits him on the island? From John Layman & Jacob Edgar#TheRocketeer#AmeliaEarhart#TheRocketeerTheIsland #1. At LCS and on the IDW app! #NCBD

Currently on a call where software developers are in control of azure/cosmos administration and trying not to scream…

There’s a muscle that keeps twitching on the right side of my face, and it’s freaking me out…

“How would a ninth-grader’s slumber party in the Oval Office go?”

I was gonna do something light for dinner tonight, but if I'm gonna watch this stupid thing, I'm gonna need a drink. So, noodles. Because I still have to work tomorrow...

And that’s a wrap! Huge thanks to @jblovecrafty.bsky.social for sharing his thoughts on gaming and his game with @mrdowden.com on our stream today. Before I continue, here’s where you can find The Wine Dark Sea: www.abyssalravengames.com

Goddammit, why does Toy Story 5 look like it's gonna be good?
