Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

I wonder what it says about the kind of teenagers we were that we were more awed by having shared space with Quincy Jones than with Jimmy Hendrix?

Hahaha! Every time this conversation comes up I'm like "Quincy Jones!" And everyone says "who?" And I have to relent and say "fine it is Jimi Hendrix who is more famous." For unknown reasons I always forget about Macklemore.

Both seasons are currently on sale for $5 each on iTunes!
Everyone should honor James Van Der Beek getting colorectal cancer screening and by rewatch Don't Trust the B*, or by watching it the first time you were silly and skipped it when it aired.

The fact that James Van Der Beek had to auction off memorabilia from his movies just broke me. It shouldn't be like this, not for beloved stars, not for anyone.

It's this, but it's also the familiar mutual teasing and taunting between them. It's just perfect because it's clear they'd also die for each other.

Alas I did not enjoy it. I liked everyone in it but literally the only chemistry was between those two who share very little screen time and the plot was very contrived and overly dragged out. But it does seem much beloved by Zhao Lusi and Leo Wu fans.

Oof this one hit a little harder than I expected. He appeared to be a genuinely decent person and what a terrible way to go.

Was told to work from home to avoid the traffic clusterfuck of the Seahawks victory parade. But it's actually stunning how low the usual commute traffic around my house is. Like this football thing is shutting down the whole city.

Literally all I wanted out of The Long Ballad was for their two characters to get together. And then they come in this show doing THIS and I swear who can stand it?

The aurora last night in Beaver, Alaska was just incredible. This is a real-time video (not sped up) of the crazy motion I saw. Also, look how BRIGHT it is, wow!

I guess Seattle did okay in the Super Bowl if the fireworks are any indication? Or it's the end of the world and I'm in my pajamas.🤷

Yes it's amazing what a difference high speed trains made there but given the scale you can see how it made sense to prioritize it.

Swipe left to screen 2 and screen 3. I like my home screen to have plenty of room for Yibo.
