black is white up is down and short is long
Since my last post, I quit my social media job and became a 5th grade ELA teacher. It’s already been an incredibly rewarding career just one month in.

Yes there are long hours and it can be stressful, but sometimes a student will bring homemade tamales because I mentioned once that I love them.

One of the coolest video game preservation stories I have ever covered arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/...
All 54 lost clickwheel iPod games have now been preserved for posterity
Finding working copies of the last few titles was an “especially cursed” journey.

Just finished one chapter, beginning a brand new one tomorrow. I'm leaving the world of social media management to teach 5th grade English, and I couldn't be more excited.

I deleted my Twitter yesterday, finally, after leaving the social media management profession. Feels good.

I’m curious what that song you just played was, @grantrandom.bsky.social. It was supposed to be M.I.A. by Foo Fighters but that definitely wasn’t haha.

Who would have guessed I’d consider an article on “fart walking” a palate cleanser

Does anyone else have one of these and, if so, does yours also totally suck?

Lots of old folks were mall walking today at lunch. Not me, I’m very young and vibrant, I only observed them, but yeah…LOTS of old folks.

I fixed my air conditioner today. YouTube and Reddit are true money savers. The part I needed cost $30, a repairman told me their work would cost at least $300. Yes, I’m bragging - but just let me, okay?

I went back to school and graduated at 40 with a communications degree specializing in internet and social media and then AI took over 😵‍💫🤪

I saw a stack of 9 common NES games listed on Facebook for $75. Couldn’t be right, I thought, so I price checked using @contricode.bsky.social’s Ultimate Nintendo app. I thought they were maybe worth $50, tops…nope, $117.93. Sometimes I forget the $2 cart days at Game Exchange are a distant memory.

I don't actually find the "AI art versus hand-made-art" debate to be interesting at all. The thing is, the more defined and refined the AI "look" becomes, the more aesthetically limited it is, and the faster the eye loses interest in it. People get tired of a "look."

You’d have to go back to R.E.M. to find a Southern band that can play power pop with such an effortless style.” Check out this great review of our new album in Glide Magazine! “Kickless Kids” is out tomorrow!

Since this article is paywalled, I’ll speculate on the contents:

- house built with gold bars
- gasoline in toilets
- a doormat that says “I’m rich”
- fully staffed Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse in the kitchen
- dozen eggs in the refrigerator

An older lady is always running the receptionist’s desk at my dermatologist when I go in. I’ll usually hear Kirk Franklin or CeCe Winans while I wait. Today a 30-something guy is manning the desk and so far I’ve heard Dinosaur Jr. and Mazzy Star. I like this guy.

Everything is too stressful, I need to settle down with a good book.
