The Arms-Out JUMP-and-SLIDE is the hottest new dance craze of 2026

Reminder that it’s OK (and in fact, essential) to relax and find joy in your life even while terrible and deeply concerning shit is happening in the news. I don’t recommend trying to *indefinitely avoid* feeling whatever it makes you feel, but you’re still allowed to make room for other stuff

I dunno, uh… OvrHTvTJ? These CAPTCHAs are getting ridiculous

Can’t argue with that logic

What an organized people

In our modern, globalized (globalised) world, international travel can be underwhelming. You can fly across an ocean, and people still listen to the same music, watch the same movies, wear the same clothes, drive the same cars, and toil under the same system of neoliberal oligarchy…

These Englanders really have a hard-on for ominous spires

I had a dream that Zillow added a feature that let you dox corporate resellers

Oh hell yes

It’s scary to see the phone screen of the guy in front of you on the airport shuttle bus when he’s scrolling through YouTube and TikTok. Like, dude, *that’s* the content you’re being served? It’s basically just the trending page! Brother, you need to get some niche hobbies before you get radicalized

I bought the Resident Evil 4 remake (Steam sale on now!) expecting to get a quick nostalgia fix and lose interest, then I ended up playing it all weekend. I’m thoroughly impressed with what I’ve seen so far (at Ch. 11) - it manages to stay true to the original while feeling like a totally new game.

I’ve had the refrain from “Ohio” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young playing on repeat in my head for over a week now. I can’t imagine why!

Pillsbury Frost it Hot! (1987-1988): A line of boxed frosting mix made for use on cakes that were still hot, to save time. Pillsbury noted that the frostings, which came in Whipped Chocolate and Fluffy White, contained no fat or cholesterol, so they wouldn't melt when applied to a hot cake.

In 2026, I have next to zero hope that the nations, corporations, and institutions of the world will trend toward better versions of themselves, but I’m sure as shit gonna be trying to trend myself in that direction. Happy New Year, Auld Lang Syne and all that jazz

Every time I get a served a video ad for a "tactical hoodie," I think to myself that maybe it wouldn't be such a bad thing if we blew up the world's internet infrastructure and plunged all of mankind into a new dark age

Whenever I interact with a server who’s a trans woman, the old-Southern-man part of my brain tries to convince me that casually calling her “hon” would be very progressive and gender-affirming of me, and then I have to gently remind that part of me that a weird-old-man ally is still a weird old man

I’m in an Uber on a dark, rainy morning, hurtling toward the airport on slick, misty roads, in a world where tablet computers are such a cheap commodity that there’s a screen attached to the headrest in front of me, serving really bright ads into my eyeballs for the benefit of Uber shareholders

"Nobody to challenge me. Nobody to exclude me. Nobody to trap me with expectation or accountability. Nobody to disappoint me. Nobody to disappoint. Nobody to make me feel shame or guilt. Nobody to tell me 'no'. No one. No one." They're selling you their own dreams, and it's the saddest grift.

I had a dream that Al Jolson died, and I felt conflicted about celebrating his life and legacy in the public sphere because most people just know him for being the single most famous blackface act in Hollywood history… but then I woke up and realized that Jolson has not, in fact, lived for 139 years

I've never been into Zachtronics-style games, and Kaizen has definitely been a slow burn, but it's hooked me. I'm so proud of my dogshit coffee-maker manufacturing process

🇫🇷 Culture shock upon visiting France: damn, so many people still smoke here, don’t they realize how addictive and harmful cigarettes are 🇺🇸 Culture shock upon returning to the US: holy shit why are children walking around drinking 20oz bottles of soda with 65g of sugar per serving

“Hail team well met” hasn’t caught on?

My new favorite bit of corporate jargon is “Hi team,” which is apparently a required salutation when posting a question or request to a large Slack channel. Variants include “Hey team,” “Hello team,” and “Hi team 👋”

I love Kunio Okawara’s OG Gundam illustrations- they have such a campy, toy-commercial vibe, but they still hit the cool-as-hell 70s sci-fi nail right on the head
