Specializing in hockey, old video games, board games, tech, wrestling, politics, gadgetry, cooking, and unsolicited opinions. Oh, and cat pictures. Many cat pictures.
If the fragility of your postseason bowl system is exposed by Notre Dame boycotting it (and two other schools following suit) because they weren't invited to the national playoff, you have too many bowl games. Just bag it already. (Also, ND: join a friggin' conference already, you pussies.)

Everybody is SCREAMING over the #Olympic #hockey ice being 197 feet long instead of 200. Calm down. Up until the mid '90s two of the damn O6 teams (BOS and CHI) played on ice sheets that were nine and FIFTEEN feet short, respectively. THREE FEET. Take a foot off of each zone, you won't even notice.

Sometimes that new Snapmaker printer with individual print heads per color looks like a pretty good idea. 58g of poop for a 4g figure and a 6 hour print time. But I REALLY wanted this figure.

No foodstuff from Pizza Hut should be served as a "flight."

The one thing that would get me to buy #PGA2K25? Put #TGL in there.

Cruciverbalists, join me over on Camera 2.

It's 2025. If you're still cluing "Some diet sodas" for TABS, put the pencil down, pour yourself a nice tall glass of Dulcolax, and ponder the possibility that maybe, just maybe, the industry has passed you by.

@alisonl.bsky.social Gilroy is about 15 minutes south of San Jose. It is known as "The Garlic Capital Of The World" and has a massive festival celebrating garlic every year, during which you can smell the stuff even with driving through on the freeway.

Sydney now, huh? Why doesn't NCIS open an outpost in Lower Schenectady?

Huh. I didn't think it was possible for the Buffalo Bills to lose four important games in a row.

This taco seasoning wants me to simmer the meat for 10 minutes after adding it. Somehow I don't think that extra five minutes is gonna draw out any more of that authentic Taco Bell flavor.

It's Christmas Eve and I'm in California visiting the rest of the family, but I miss my kitty.

For reasons obvious, there are a lot of conversations floating around the social medias these days about the (U.S.) Presidential line of succession.

I am both shocked and appalled at how many otherwise rational-thinking people DIDN'T pay attention in civics class.

I just finished my favorite part of Black Friday.

No, not that.

Today is my kitty's ninth Gotcha Day! Every year I add to her collage.

Happy Gotcha Day, Fiona. You are the best Pie a hooman could ask for.

"We have an announcement for the press pool. We're going to be making an unscheduled stop. Under no circumstances should you report that Vice President Harris will be making this surprise appearance on live TV. From New York. On Saturday night. Are we understood?"

Scrolling through Woot, I see they are clearing out Reverend Run Funkos. I have questions:

1) Why were DMCs selling at a different pace?

2) If not (1), why did Funko produce more Runs than they did DMCs? Was Run's House (the TV reality show) REALLY that big of a hit?

Personally I'm against polio, but the Rotarians are taking a bold stance here and I will defend to the death their right to free speech.

Okay, let's talk about fact checking for a second. The rules of the debate is that the moderators will not fact-check in real time. Does that stop other channels carrying the debate from fact-checking on their own in a sidebar or must they carry the feed as-is? @chrislhayes.bsky.social, weigh in?

Happy New Year to those who celebrate. To those who don’t, happy January 1st.

There’s nothing Alexa likes more than a good dad joke. Just now, though, I couldn’t even bear to ask, because the only correct answer to “How does James Bond like to sleep?” is “With your MOTHER, Trebek!”

Legs and backbox achieved! Lots of hooking up to do though.
September 23, 2023 at 9:51 PM
Well, that was easier than I expected.

Also, today is Make Room For The VPinball And Make It One Piece And Put The Legs On It Day. Dunno if I’ll have a fully mounted screen but I don’t think I’m *too* far off from a playable state. Photos to come.
