So Netflix made it so you can't cast from your devices to screen? For.. Let me check my notes.. no good or logical reason that isn't a bizarre money grab?

How does Netflix just get continuously worse?

Will I ever stop getting emotional over the eagle flight scene from Rescuers Down Under?
Absolutely not, it's my favorite animated scene in the whole world.

Babybean: my catchphrase is "I've been here the whole time"

Me: that's Sam Reich's catchphrase

Babybean, mildly offended: well it's my catchphrase too!

I'm not gonna argue with a five year old lol

I miss my cello. Right now my vocal chords are having a hard time recovering from a month of back to back getting sick and I keep thinking of when I could play my cello to express myself.
Unfortunately even a beginner cello is three times the price of the one I had a decade ago.

I just attempted to explain Animaniacs to a 20 year old. Now if anyone needs me I'll be rapidly aging in the corner.

Today I saw a little girl whose Halloween costume was "suburban grill dad" complete with socks and sandals, apron, and beat up baseball hat. That kid absolutely rules.
