The first album that was mine was the Kriss Kross cassette given to me by the most popular boy in school at my 6th grade birthday party, my first ever boy-girl party. He wrote my name on the envelope in glitter?? He begged to be invited when he wasn't originally?? Mystifying

about halfway through the new Murderbot and one thing I really appreciate about Wells as a sf/f writer is she is fully aware she can just make up a setting with physical/legal/etc rules that works for what she wants to write about

I should be working, and yet...

now that the billionaires left new york city i was able to buy a big loft in midtown for a song. it's 1600 square feet and my neighbors are david byrne and james murphy and i've already gotten involved in their low grade conflict over who keeps putting cardboard boxes in the trash bin. thanks zohran

I used to have political convictions but then I got scolded by John Roberts. That’s an important part of his job. Now I see that it’s time for me to listen and learn.

I don't know what's happening on my campus right now but I like it.

I can't tell if it's restraint or lack of vision that has prevented the post office from doing blind box gambling with stamps.

I know it's all relative but every time people say "gas is $___ a gallon" and it's the price I used to pay last fall it's just not working for me. There are actually 40 million people in CA plus gas costs more in other states too, so maybe repeating the national average isn't all that helpful?

Nice argument, but I’ve already depicted you as the forlorn, downtrodden Marco Rubio and myself as the wryly smiling Pontiff.

it took me too long to realize that this was "horseshit" censored and not new slang i didn't know about yet where "horses" meant bad

Last July, the pope called his bank in South Chicago. He wanted to update the phone number on his account. The teller told him that any changes had to be made in person with an ID. Knowing that was impossible, he asked: “Would it matter to you if I told you I’m Pope Leo?” She hung up on him.

My favorite is this little doodle she drew in my copy of the book 15 years ago (I left off the dedication)

hey man can you just walk into my suspiciously boss-arena sized room. don't worry about the save point outside that's just to give you a break haha. just walk in. walk into this room right now

hot take: I don’t even like Nolan movies and the new Odyssey trailer looks fine

speaking of webcomics I still think this Hark A Vagrant panel is like. the single funniest image of all time

Atwell/Hiddleston Broadway Much Ado this fall??? muchadobroadway.com

Classical station partly forgiven for pledge drive because they're playing James Horner's theme from The Rocketeer (which I was bummed not to hear at all in California Adventure last week, you used to hear it all the time in Aviation Flats near Soarin')

The actual worst thing about being back from vacation is I returned in time for the classical station's pledge drive this week

The new Ultimate Child Shield batteries also dye a child’s mouth blue indicating a battery may have been swallowed.

Coolest guy in the world.

my most useful mantra is: most people overestimate what they can do in a day and underestimate what they can do in a year

the “over 35” feeling of listening to an album on streaming you haven’t heard in forever, going “this song rocks, why don’t I remember it” and then recalling it was scratched on your CD in the 90s

"openai.com" was once the personal homepage of a guy named glenn (2001), and "tiktok.com" was the quaint shared homepage of a couple as their relationship progressed from dating to married with a baby (2000). THREAD!!!

It's a real Experience being a farmer trying to shout as loud as I can about what's happening out here. While journalists ignore the obvious so they can write their tear-jerker bullshit. Farmers chose Trump, as a strategy to take advantage of their own workers & the entire US taxpayer population.

Someone out there decided it would be a good idea to put a German Shepherd in charge of babysitting a bunch of Doberman puppies and they were 100% correct

I now have a lot of fondness for the arc that’s like Last 20 minutes of Revenge of the Sith - Obi Wan Kenobi - Andor - Rogue One - Star Wars Empire is still my favorite movie but the above I think covers the most interesting material in the SW universe

I'm not high but I just had a vision of ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING taking place in the same Coruscant high rise that Mon Mothma lives in in ANDOR, just playing out in the background. Same cast but Martin Short's various overcoats are robes instead etc. I am not high

I've driven away so many followers with my insane boards of canada posting that perhaps I can no longer sell out a flash sale of great coffee beans?

i see the vision, hudson

seeing Nicole Kidman reminds me we made it like 20 minutes into the first Scarpetta episode before emphatically hitting the back button

yes???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

she can do what she wants

Robert Wunnnnnnnn

We predicted that people would show up sporting actual paintings and gold frames, but we should have realized that Madame X was going to be a major inspo for the night

this is what you look like when you unlock all the pieces of your class legendary armor and then you’re idling in town next to the mailbox

watching the original SW trilogy with Little Kid today has led to endless questions like "why is Darth Vader mean" and "why are there no sidewalks in outer space"

me & my sleep paralysis demon saw you from across the bar and we love your vibe

It’s been a few years since I watched and the mix of parts that make up the movie is fascinating; sometimes it veers into 70s B movie badness, sometimes it’s shot like the best of 70s cinema. It’s saved by excellent actors who don’t quite know what they’re doing here, and its idiosyncratic vision

It’s today again.

You're not looking through 12,000 new Artemis photos, so here are some of the best: defector.com/youre-not-lo...

Still wild that Disney just like, bought Star Wars
