Colorectal cancer is on the rise among young adults and ultra processed foods might be to blame. I don’t care what you eat, just get those colonoscopies! www.npr.org/2025/11/14/n...

I haven’t done it but I’m willing to do it. For journalism.

ALSO: Cannabis should be legalized federally too.

Plumber came to look at the bathtub, which has been clogged since October. Says $2500 will cover repairs. I can make that in a week posing nude for community college art students, it’s fine. What’s bothering me is this guy had long thick hair. The kinda hair that clogs bathtub drains. Too much hair.

I’m just a man, staring at the sky, waiting to feel something

Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

The aurora borealis? At this time of year? In this part of the country? Localized entirely over my kitchen?

Craft brewing is responsible for over 11,000 Minnesota jobs. Thousands of these jobs are threatened by the federal ban on hemp-derived products.

This will put more people out of work than there are coal miners. Insane

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

Hey look there’s more than eight democrats here

I’m sitting down for a big bowl of pozole at the new supermercado in town. A neighbor spots me, parks her cart, and sits down beside me. Asks how chemo is. Asks if I’m going to al anon. Asks if I need anything. I set down my book. “This pozole recipe” is all I can come up with.

Ivy is playing an original song called Sugar Bottom Daddy Number 9 and from what I can tell it’s about pancakes

Sat down at Frenchman’s and saw an old friend and colleague from my days doing marketing for Surly Bikes at QBP. He’d just finished a 10-hour run. I had just finished a burrito.

Not gonna lie, playing the uptown vfw stage with these dudes was fun and I want to do it again

I’m taking my girls to see Josh Ritter at the Fitz tonight, but first I gotta play my own VFW gig this afternoon, and before that I gotta get this chemo pump disconnected

“Daddy! Monster Fuck Book!” - Murphy, nearly three, demanding his big book about monster trucks for the ride to daycare

One is a Bronco from Denver. The other is a Bull from Durham. Both are bursting out of a massive D.

They say there’s no sin in killing a beast, only in killing a man. But where does one begin and the other end? [howling ensues]

I’m on a real hunt for Benicio del Toro movies. I want to watch them all, but when I run out I will be Benicio del Sorrow.

Found out today I don’t have to take the drug responsible for neuropathy any longer (Oxaliplatin). Also, the mass on my liver has shrunk in half since I started treatment. Eat shit, Cancer.

Last week I had my first PET scan since starting treatment for adenocarcinoma of the colon. My doctor says the images suggest a partial response to treatment — some areas are improving slightly, other areas are remaining stable. The big takeaway: No bad news for now. www.gofundme.com/manage/suppo...

If you'd asked me last week I would've picked Carter for St. Paul and someone new for Minneapolis. Shows what I know! FWIW my zip code is Richfield and that's where I try to keep my focus. Ask me about our roundabouts.

I had my final finger style guitar class tonight. I gotta sign up for more classes. Seems like the more I put into playing music, the more I get back.

Vote Ice Cream. Elect Italian Pizza. Spumoni for Prez.

Trying out a new hobby where I visit area pawn shops to find rare and underpriced guitars

Big wind. Cold bones. Quality time.

Tom Verducci has a fantastic wig, I have an eye for wigs

I was eight. It was my sister’s sixth birthday. We went trick-or-treating in our snow gear. The carnage was horrific. Costumed bodies were piled in snowbanks, fake blood mingling with real. The monsters got away with murder that night.

Swap the wine for beer and you've got bikepacking

forty-two years old and over a decade of experience in brand marketing and social media but don’t worry, I can still whip up corporate holiday content that garners abysmal engagement

This White Castle pic is accumulating hearts and thumbs in my IG Stories so I’ll put it here too

Marjorie Johnson was 4’8” and lived to 106. Thousands of awards for baking. Legendary numbers.

Here’s a story. This year my family experienced food insecurity. Three kids, one parent with a full-time job, and one parent in treatment, unable to work. Mortgage. Childcare. Soaring grocery prices. You can’t plan or prepare for every twist and turn your life will take. SNAP benefits saved us. 1/2

I’m watching a PBS American Masters thing on Willie Nelson from 2002 and he’s doing taekwondo on his tour bus, riding a bicycle on his childhood farm, and fighting pneumonia. Not bad for 69. www.pbs.org/wnet/america...
