Maybe I'm not overthinking, maybe I'm just regular thinking about stuff that’s overhappening

Talked to Mitch McConnell today for 20 minutes. He asked me if I thought hell was real and I said I don’t know. Then he asked me if oath-breakers suffer extra punishment in hell and I said that Dante seemed to think so. Then he got really quiet and sad for some reason.

If Adam Sandler had come near my wedding, I’d have chased him off with a broom.

The puzzles on chess.com are usually very good. But sometimes your coach just lies to you.

‘Educated and compassionate public servants are almost certainly [Communist] spies.’ That’s all you are going to hear now from the semiliterate old-time crooks and spellbinders who want the government back, who think it’s rightly theirs. - from Jailbird, by Kurt Vonnegut

Every Kurt Vonnegut book contains a quote written specifically for you, specifically about today.

I am now convinced that Dr. di Sanza’s greatest strength was his utter stupidity. He was such a successful swindler because he himself could not, even after two convictions, understand what was inevitably catastrophic about a Ponzi scheme. - from Jailbird by Kurt Vonnegut.

Maybe American society outsourcing mental health care to libraries and transit systems was a bad idea.

Me, after watching 10 episodes of One Piece: “This show is dumb; all of the characters are idiots.” Me, after watching 350 episodes of One Piece: “I would die for these noble idiots.”

I don’t listen to a lot of rap music but I like Gucci Mane because he clearly lives near me and his lyrics are all like: Cruisin McAfee Rd, took a right on 2nd. Bought some challah at Publix, The one by the golf course

Trump to KKK: we’ve got your back

JD Vance is going to be the first vice-president to be fired.

This was a whole week of Fridays (derogatory)

The Venn diagram of actions that might end the Iran war and actions Trump is willing to take is two circles fleeing each other like Marty Feldman’s eyes

I love love love “For What It’s Worth” by @kennedyofficial.bsky.social All her stuff is great but is my favorite song I’ve discovered this year open.spotify.com/track/62Z6Zq...

We have always been at war with Eurasia.

I recently realized that HIDIVE shows aren’t supposed to be good. They are meant to be entertaining trash. (Picture is from Rock is a Lady’s Modesty)

The new Muppet Show is delightful. It’s like rediscovering a lost civilization. Sabrina Carpenter was an inspired choice for a guest star.

There’s a fortune to be made from “I bought this before I knew Elon was a pedophile” stickers.

Problems in life come in two categories: cheese-related and non-cheese-related.

Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals. It often targets civilians and critical infrastructure to disrupt safety and advance specific agendas.

Specifically, Trump said he would go after "the worst of the worst," which is what Biden was already doing, and what the American people broadly supported, while pretending he was breaking with Biden when he was not, then he got in office and pulled a giant switcheroo on everyone

My #AnimeWeekendAtlanta cosplay schedule: Thursday - working Friday - Knuckleduster (My Hero Academia) Saturday - Mr. Braun (Stein's Gate) Sunday - sleeping

My son was trying to say “Halloween everyday” and it came out garbled. In summary: Happy Hallowdays everyone!

My favorite album of 2025 is Vicious Delicious, by Luvcat. I’ve had songs like “Matador”, “Lipstick” and “Blushing” in heavy rotation. Probably would have dominated my stats if it came out earlier in the year.

My favorite new artist of the year - SOFIA ISELLA. She’s a 20-year-old singer-songwriter prodigy. And she doesn’t do cute/sexy. Her stage presence is more like the girl from The Ring.

J/k. My actual favorite song of the year was “Heaven” by Syd Taylor. Tip of the hat to @pkrugman.bsky.social for mentioning her in his blog.

My song of the year, same as last year, and pretty much every year since 1978: “Rasputin” by Boney M.

Late entry for word of the year: underbussing [Karoline Leavitt] attributed the orders of September 2 to Admiral Bradley, appearing to be setting him up for underbussing. - Heather Cox Richardson, 12/01/2025

One day you decorate for Halloween and then decide you like it better and leave it that way forever

ICE reports 8000% increase in lying about assaults

Dick Cheney was guilty of many horrible crimes but the worst of them was when he possessed Bruce Wayne’s body and turned Batman into a serial killer.

I love homemade Halloween decorations. My neighborhood has some great ones. I added some pictures to my blog. monsterobjects.com/2025/10/31/h...

I love how HiDive just assigns random release dates to episodes. All of these episodes came out last month.

I’m not a lawyer, but it seems like the statement “we’re just going to kill people” is the kind of thing that could come back to bite you at your murder trial

This month is the 10-year anniversary of my Monster Objects art display. I've brought back out the life-sized Minecraft models that I first made then. You can see pictures and read more on monsterobjects.com #monsterobjects

NO KINGS is literally the most pro-America statement

Recycled yard signs are great for making Halloween decorations:
