Yes, the Grink was there. I'm getting to that. He was on that island with me. And I wouldn't be alive to tell my story without him.

Go on…

Tonight was the first session of a mug making ceramic course Jace and I are taking. I made one normal mug (left) but not after making one I have been delightedly calling “stupid mug”

Picnic! At Hanging Rock

I came home today too and literally none of you so called friends made a deal out of it

Have they said whether or not the moon is haunted yet

To co-sign and expand upon: This is also a thing that often happens after a first season that grows in popularity after it finishes airing. Now that fans who binged have to watch week to week, they struggle with the fact that stories are going somewhere and not immediately resolved.

I bet being buried up to your neck in the sand at the beach feels really good

The uneasy winter detente is over - the bugs are emerging in the basement

Finally a bisexual Major League Baseball team

The Pitt: "Abortions for some…miniature American flags for others!"

"but did you consider...." yes i made this one too don't worry.

I've heard a lot of yay about how snl uk is this magical, brilliant show that showcases how inferior the us original is... and the first sketch I see is "prince andrew was just faking being a pedophile, and also fergie runs funny"

I know these have to have been planned for a long time before the sequel flopped but there's part of me that goes "How bad did Ares do that they're trying to get us to buy a plastic Garrett Hedlund?"

It’s fun realizing I was apparently the only person who didn’t think the Penguins would be terrible this season

I made tomato Mac and cheese for dinner, skirting the danger zone of my lactose intolerance. It would be a bad idea to have ice cream… unless…

Pens in the playoffs, baby!! Sid and the boys!!!

I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself. Hey Paul!

whoever told me about this series at first did NOT tell me it had stephen root, which was a drastic miscalculation about my love for ol jimmy james

the only thing the Sixers are missing in their doomed history is a high-ranking executive appearing in the Epstein fil-- hold on, I am getting some info here

Okay I'm half done and I can see a little bit of time now. Live image of the writer:

Paul Atreides: kwisatz haderach Count Hasimir Fenring: ersatz haderach

It's going great!

GIMME A HELL YEAH

My friends, I have poured a double shot of espresso into a diet dr pepper and I am here to tell you this is the drink of the future. In that in about 5 minutes I will literally see time

I saw a clip of Trevor May discussing a few of Vitello's... media sessions... and had to immediately make Jace watch it because of how increasingly unhinged things got.

For those people who can't or won't click... these are pretty hot, right?

Today lunch is a soup cube

I'm gonna cancel Sam Reich over this somehow

One minor but maddening annoyance is when someone in a meeting presents something dry but required and then at lengths acts self-effacing about the material not being interesting. Have some friggin pride. If YOU think you're wasting my time then what am I supposed to do with it?

New Victoria Rose Richards Piece Day is one of the best days there is!!!

love the hero rat!!

good question! They mean "homeless native person"

I must inform some of my beloved pals of this. @soundingline.bsky.social, @wolter.bsky.social, we ride.

frantically texting this to many friends

I think it's really great how Linus Ullmark talks about his ongoing mental health healing and the ways those needs get treated differently from physical health www.nytimes.com/athletic/717...

far more concerning is the right hand that says "MOBY GOOD"

This is a thoughtful piece about the roboump/abs system that gets at its benefits and compromises. I can't help but think about reading an ump's complaint a few weeks ago that they can't just change their strike zone depending on the situation anymore.

A few botched clears aside, I'm pleased with my play last night. Made a great heads up play to pass up a shot in favour of a pass that sent up an easy goal. Screened the goalie on another one. Skated stronger than I have maybe ever. Nice stuff to build on!

BREAKING: NuCaloric announces Vapable Hot Dog after disrupting snack food market with last year's Drinkable Cheeseburger.

This is an interesting piece about tanking in the NBA, especially in how it relates some tanking techniques to gambling tools like point shaving. But sadly, I don't think a place that also runs its own gambling house is positioned to really interrogate that messiness. www.espn.com/nba/story/_/...

Late game last night, played hard enough that I woke up achy and still fatigued. Immediately a 2-double shot and a java monster morning

I don’t like the way HockeyStickMan refers to my “multiple orders” and calls me “a frequent and loyal customer”

“Why is it still snowing?” and other questions you ask yourself in Edmonton in April

This is the only ballpark stunt food I don’t support. Get a real job

I just learned that next Tuesday is the 30th anniversary of Steamed Hams. This is an unnerving thing to be faced with, so I am making other people reckon with it too

We've had an update on Joe today. He's had a tracheotomy today to move him off of the ventilator at last, and he's recovering well. Things are going slower than originally anticipated, but the doctors are confident he's on the right track slowly but surely. Thank you all so much for supporting him.

Niko is a great writer. This is a great piece.
