Hey Pals, make sure you drink responsibly this Sunday and please designate someone sober to be in charge of the remote. I'd hate to see people get so hammered that they accidentally watch the TPUSA All-American Halftime Show. #superbowl #supersunday #drinkresponsibly

I don't do library reference work anymore, but when I did, the CIA World Factbook was indispensable. It was detailed, authoritative, and brimming with loads of arcane facts. I can't tell you how many country assignments this resource supported, but it had to be in the millions.

I feel like Orwell overestimated the strength of political ideology and maybe underestimated racism, greed, media consolidation, and corporate oligarchies.

I saw a critique of Springsteen's new song, it being too earnest and cringe, and if I could just take a second to introduce you to the entire Bruce Springsteen catalogue we could settle this in a heartbeat.

I'm awake at 4:00AM. We live on a pretty busy street and so the plows just came through. They plowed our street AND the protected bike lane, so that's something good.

I can't believe I've been on bsky this long and I'm just now encountering the term "wokescold"! Also, I had to look it up because I wasn't sure if it meant someone who scolds people for being woke, or someone who scolds people for not being woke enough. It's apparently the latter. TMYK.

If I had any time to write about art, I'd definitely be writing about Akeylah Wellington's show "Soft Power" at Brandt Galleries. Fortunately, @andydowning33.bsky.social and @matternews.bsky.social have us covered. So go see this amazing work. Support local art and support local journalism!
"I think there’s something I’m seeking, some sensory feeling I want to impart on folks who are looking at my work. And I don’t know if I have the language to explain what that feeling is, but it’s a sense of appreciation, but also confusion, but also frustration and melancholy or even impotence."

The Columbus artist’s new exhibition, co-curated by Reg Zehner, kicks off with an opening reception at Pecha Projects today (Friday, Jan. 16).
