At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to enjoy chocolate croissants and read Edgar Allan Poe by the fireplace in an ominous Victorian mansion during a full moon on a cool October night?

Are there other rangoons that we're missing out on? Is there taco rangoon? Pepperoni rangoon? Hash brown rangoon? I have a right to know and so do you.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes. Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

At least it's pretty outside.

How many ways does he have to show he doesn’t give a damn about working folks?! Troops invading states. Sleeping kids woken up & zip-tied. Prices soaring. Insurance through the roof. Media muzzled. Personal enemies punished. This isn’t America. This is what authoritarian rot looks like.

Halloween corner is up!

Happy #scarymoviemonth to all who celebrate!

Guess where I am.

The show I am stage managing that was opening this weekend has been postponed until the end of October. Definitely not how I expected things to go.

Tech week! Time for no sleep and all of the stress!

Sunday is the start of tech week for the production of Seussical that I am stage managing. Aaah.

13 years ago, Dave and I met at a party held on Labor Day weekend. Happy sort of anniversary to us!

Some new friends in the yard -

I can't stop eating these -

Went to see a show with my mom today!

“did you get enough sleep” i got plenty of whatever the other thing is

I’m bringing skeksis back (yeah) Them other gelflings don’t know how to act (yeah)

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

I've been stage managing another show, which means I constantly have Seussical stuck in my head.

I love you all, but if one more person says "But it's illegal!" I'm going to...make chocolate chip cookies and cry a lot.

maybe it’s a disfigured portrait in her attic, maybe it’s Maybelline

Man how many years has it been since the start of 2025

I've never used ChatGPT. Yes, this means I'm better than you.

What a meal!

Scans are clean!

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want a sweet treat, a bookshelf with a rolling ladder, and some precedented times?

An IV hates to see my veins coming. Had to go to the IV specialist, get a small needle, get warmed up, and still try twice to get the IV in!

Headed for another round of scans today. I don't expect anything bad, but cross your fingers just in case!

View Boston!

I love him -

Some of today's art -

Time for some culture.

Hustle culture? No thanks. I'm more partial to "exploring quaint independent bookstores on rainy days" culture.

“did u finish the work on the terrifying dread kraken to strike fear in the hearts of men” “sure did boss just like u asked made him goofy as hell all googley eyed and waving his lil tentacles up in the air’ “wait wat”

On vacation until Monday!

“keep politics out of kids movies” disney in 1973:

This is the chunkiest bloody mary I have ever had.

Help me. I am trapped in a haiku factory save me, before they

Apparently I was due for a cold...

His favorite spot.

What a fantastic show!

trump should’ve been in handcuffs in jan 2021 and there is no way to quantify just how much human suffering will result from the disastrous decision to slow walk his prosecution or even avoid it altogether

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Ah, the squeal of the Green Line. It's like Boston is screaming, "HELLO."

Big fan of democracy but we'll have to admit it's an L of historic proportions to get subverted and destroyed not by some strategic genius but by possibly the dumbest man on earth

This July 4th feels like a birthday party for an 18 year old dog

This is all so fucking depressing.

It has a very real chance of failing—and *even if it passes with changes* it still has to go BACK to the Senate to get voted on AGAIN. And it barely made it through the first time This thing is way more killable than you’d think and the longer we can drag out the process the more killable it gets
