On the phone with a friend: Me: “I’m trying to think of a time when I wasn’t a cynical bastard and- Friend: “I’ve know you for 25 years and you’ve been a cynical bastard the whole time. Maybe grade school?”

Only you can keep your honor clean.

Weighed myself for the first time in a few months and learned I lost 16 pounds in the interim.

This episode was crucial to my mental health not crumbling into dust and debris today.

I got my reprint box set of Armax journals the other day and they are gorgeous. Life’s been busy with back to school so hopefully this weekend I’ll be able to start reading them and will post pics.

I would listen to a monthly bonus ep of @whatahellofawaytodad.com clown on SovCit charlatan websites.

How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now

Move over, Hemingway

Some day I will once again be able to look forward to Friday as the last work day of the week. Today is not that day.

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn't from Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who or Transformers.

People are using Meta glasses to bootleg the new Superman movie

What’s ringing, my freedoms?

My friend @ryanbenharris.bsky.social is doing a charity thing cuz he’s a good person and for a $5 Venmo one can add a song to his training/running playlist and because I am not a good person I’ve spent the last hour on Spotify finding songs to torture him. www.instagram.com/p/DLbMjHSRwp...

Made the mistake of liking a buddy’s pic of them in a Hawaiian shirt and now my instagram feed looks like a Boogaloo Boy wardrobe department

Spy Game. Keep Redford.

George Lucas gets a lot of well deserved flack for what he did to the original SW trilogy and such, but his greatest sin IMO was adulterating the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles for the DVD releases.

499 days until the midterms.

Allow me to fix this headline: US strikes prove that this American president failed to grasp the lessons of Iraq.

I had a quiet drink in an award show VIP area next to @alexwinter.com but my fave was literally running into Kurt Vonnegut in an Amherst stairwell and saying “sorry - oh my god you’re Kurt Vonnegut” and he said, “yes I am” and sidestepped past me.

We brunchin

No I will not be participating in the meeting ice breaker. I’ve worked hard to cultivate this ice and climate change is real.

First head cold in a while. Chicken soup for the foreseeable.

I feel like a better first date question is “Forget your Meyers-Briggs, what’s your ACE score?”

Good vibes paid off. Just got very good news and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Just sent probably the most important email of my career. Wish me luck.

That moment when you realize the “routine OSINT investigation” is gonna be a monster.

Just so you know, if you send me a text that says “edited” under it- I’m checking to see what the original was. No judgement, just curious. And maybe a little judgement.

Breakfast

Instagram just “suggested” I follow an account and it took me a minute to recognize it was a former coworker who wanted a threesome with me and another coworker. These algorithms are getting freaky. Also I had completely forgotten about that episode until now.

I watched WARFARE. I think it’s an excellent of example of having veterans telling their own stories, providing an important way to bridge the civ-mil gap. Now make Hooligans of Kandahar, @a24movies.bsky.social you cowards.

Cassocks are red Conclaves are dope Wake up babe we got a

“He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.”

The other day I posted this, but upon reflection I learned the depths of my true nerd soul. Let me explain:

Rewatching Crystal Skull, and I’ve never related to Indy harder in my life than the scene in the diner where Mutt asks about some obscure piece of history and Indy just rattles off all these details. It me.

Andor is the best spy fiction series in a long long time

Those of us in the school safety biz long enough recall the Columbine doom wads. torontosun.com/news/world/r...

Oh cool new nightmares

Repost with an image of your favorite James Bond (wrong answers only) - I couldn’t pick just one.

One of the fun things about rewatching Homicide: Life On The Street (among many) is when you go looking for stuff about an episode online you find these relics of mid-90s internet sites and the design is so beautifully hideous but THE CONTENT IS CLEAR AND UNBLOCKED BY BS SUBSCRIBE/AD/RANDOM VIDEO

This week was so crazy I made a shower cocktail just now.

The other official beverage of @lionsledbydonkeys.bsky.social

Detective Munch was right.

It’s like they want us to invade

Guys this season of Bosch Legacy is sooooooo good. #oldmantv

Bacon Sunday.

Listening to this thunderstorm is the highlight of the weekend

@chowdahhill.bsky.social - nice piece in Proceedings!

Mini A'Tuin

OH @ the green market: “This empanada tastes like it was made by a white lady”

Probably not a good thing that I can take my pulse by just looking at my arm.
