I can’t believe I scheduled a dental cleaning on New Years Eve. At least it didn’t take long and now I can act on my watching plans for the evening.

all I’ve thought about today has been Heated Rivalry. Binge watching 3, 4, 5 and 6 altered my brain chemistry. about to make it my whole personality for 2026. I kid you not.

It’s Kubrick, it’s a masterpiece, yada yada. Might make it a tradition going forward every Christmas time. Going to let it digest for a couple of days to determine just how much of a masterpiece it truly is…
watching Stanley Kubrick’s EYES WIDE SHUT (1999) for the very first time tonight on the Criterion 4K UHD.
Merry Christmas to all.

It feels super weird ordering anime blu-rays. I’ve been filling some small gaps in my collection this month and plan to start watching my way through as much as I can next month. I really need to discover that happy balance between all my various hobbies… just not enough time in the day.

Four months ago, I gave this update on goings on with me. Today I am ecstatic to announce my A1C dropped from 6.8 to 6.1 in another 3 month period. The diabetic medication only takes so much off so this is all my hard work and dedication to getting better and healthier. I am so proud of myself.
In early May, I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Since then I’ve dramatically altered my diet and living conditions and environment. I’ve cut out 95-99% of my sugar intake. I’ve lost almost 30 pounds. So Wednesday was my three month bloodwork update. My A1C in May was 10.6, today it’s 6.8…

Just checking in, letting everyone know (and who cares about lil ole me) I’m doing well. How have things been around here? Everyone behaving themselves? Maybe I should consider returning for funsies…

Since Bluesky isn’t doing anything about my problem, I guess it’s time to hang my hat up and bail on this joint. It was fun, fellas. I just don’t feel like enduring the harassment.

Hey can people do me a solid and report this account below for impersonation and harassment. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I think the UK standard editions for Tron and Tron Legacy 4Ks look cooler than the steelbooks.
And let’s be real, the eventual Tron Aries steelbook won’t match with them.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

This is really, really bad news. I don’t care if you don’t like Kirk. No one deserves to be shot. This is dreadful news for people speaking publicly, who increasingly must fear for their safety, and also for the inevitable crackdown that will follow.
