After DND last night we had a small stretch where the dudes were all talking about how while none of us are into guys, we're all pretty comfortable acknowledging a dude as very hot and I sent the group a pic of Andrade El Idolo and got a whole bunch of "yeah, totally get it".

The theater by my house's display says "Wuthering Height" and I have laughed every time I've walked past.

Walked past a record store I didn't know existed today and almost broke my neck doing a doubletake when I saw this through the window.

The only negative to early voting is having to lick that horrible envelope.

Feels good getting to vote against Brendan Reilly and not having to move downtown to do so.

Maybe my favorite moment in The Godfather is Robert Duvall trying not to crack when John Marley's character yells "well let me tell you something my kraut mick friend".

Late February/early March in Vegas was a hoot because all the desert tortoises would come out of brumation and start appearing in peoples' yards and we would get sooooo many calls about it at the shelter. "Ma'am, that tortoise is older than your house. Leave it be."

Indiana, you are down 18 with less than a minute left. Why are you calling a timeout? Die with dignity.

Dad just texted me "SKELETON!"

If you go to José Valentín's B-R page today it has a little heart!

I hate that JFK quote almost as much as the Reagan one about "I'm from the government and I'm here to help". Two dudes completely missing the point of what a government is supposed to be.

I laugh at this at my desk every day.

The first year that skeleton got added to the Olympics my dad and I would just walk around yelling "SKELETON!" in our house and I'm not sure how mom or my sisters didn't kill us.

Leonardo da Vinci when thinking about his aerial screw.

It is so nice out that I might eat lunch on the patio for the first time in months!

Dante is getting picked up for a long hug and 20 kisses on his head every time I walk through the door now and either he is as sad as I am and wants it or is amazing at knowing I need it.

Nick Castellanos wanting to be treated like a star player is pretty great. My guy, you have one season with more than 30 dingers, don't draw walks, aren't fast, and can't play defense.

I play DND online with a couple dudes I've known since grade school and hangout with my best friend since small times a few times per year. The big Canoe Trip I go on every summer is arranged by a bunch of dudes who all went to high school together that I met in college.

Combos: the dog treat for man

I like to wear black scrubs on Thursdays because that is Pitt Day.

@theamitie.bsky.social I don't know if you do Learned League or not, but there is a quiz about California Pizza Kitchen today.

@edenthecat.bsky.social We had a cat at work today named Eden and I thought "wait a second, I haven't seen them in a while". I hope you're doing well!

I'm moving around like Kermit as Bob Cratchett in the Bad Future Christmas segment today.

Well sure, until you tell them your don't like them like that.

In bed before 9, feeling divine! In bed after 11. You'll meet Night Kevin

I liked to refer to Virgil as "the son I deserved" because he was essentially how I think of myself but in the form of a tiny orange cat: a menace and a bit of shithead, but his heart was in the right place. I'm going to miss him so much.

Me trying to order that pop I like after 5 beers: GIMMA A FRASCA!

Spanish is an easy and beautiful language. Just try learning it.

I learned the rules to curling from a Digimon game for my PS1 because I have always been really, really cool.

I've been singing "cheese dip Sunday" to myself all morning to the tune of Jukebox Hero.

I've been thinking about this ad all morning. It is the most effective ad I've ever seen in a newspaper because it is baffling.

If I met the Buddha on the road, I would not kill him. I would invent him to come hangout and play some Bomberman with me and the boys.

Jeremy Fears Jr is the worst person to come out of Joliet since Andy Dick.

The uncrustable was wearing orange Chucks and it needs to knock that shit off!

@jfruh.bsky.social I think part of the joke in Marvin today might also be that the dog can't eat chocolate.

I loved the Dugout back in the day but frequently think about how lucky it is for everyone involved that it pretty much disappeared off the face of the internet.

tbh the notion of "ducks unlimited" is fairly terrifying. ducks occupying our every waking thought, replicating in quacking abandon until they squeeze out the rest of reality, stretching to the bounds of the universe. all is duck, nothing is not duck. a horror beyond imagining.

101 spays/neuters this week (four of those were cryptorchids, one with an umbilical hernia repair, and one with a mass removal)! I am so tired.

IT IS ABOVE FREEZING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALMOST A MONTH!

The first time I saw the word "blockchain" I thought it was an advanced fighting game technique I'll never learn because playing defense is for cowards.

I'm watching old episodes to get ready for trivia next week and holy shit, it's that goddamn Norman Rockwell painting that turned into the meme all the way back in season 2!

If your name is Russell and you don't refer to brussels sprouts you make as "Russell's sprouts", you don't deserve happiness.

It is almost grillin' weather. And it is almost chillin' weather. And you'd better believe it is practically grillin' & chillin' weather.

Book 4 of 2026: like a far more grounded version of True Detective season 1. Gets a bit rushed at the end but still a good read!

It's pretty rad how much "FUCK ICE" got yelled during the main event of the best pro wrestling show on TV tonight.

Gonna change my career and become the one pro wrestling ref who does not get distracted.

I hope Northwestern keeps Chris Collins' dopey ass coaching that basketball team forever.
