Wishing the best of luck to the crew today!
As a reminder, this is happening tomorrow! How long before the mind breaks? I don't know, but it's for a good cause.
The second chapter of my Pokémon: Living Dex Adventures begins next Saturday, November 15th in celebration of @extralife4kids.bsky.social's Game Day. All proceeds will go to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Come on by, make a donation if you can, and watch as I slowly lose my mind.

Ringo Starr, the guy that narrates Thomas the Tank Engine.
Patrick Stewart, that one book from The Pagemaster.
I think everybody has a “Wallace Shawn from Young Sheldon” — my first one would probably be “Vincent Price, the guy who did the voice of Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective”

Good luck getting past level one!
Remember to be considerate tonight while trick-or-treating!

I just realized the Sony Mavica camera I picked up this week has been through the thrift store circuit at least two times. It’s okay little guy, you’ll have a safe home with me for many years to come.

Wow. It’s truly the end of an era. Back when cable TV ruled supreme, my TiVo really helped me to record and discover a lot of different movies and shows. Even when we had an included DVR with cable, I kept the TiVo because the experience was so much better.
TiVo Stops Selling DVRs, Exiting the Hardware Business After 26 Years
TiVo officially stopped selling its DVR boxes on October 1 as it gets out of the hardware business after 26 years.

This generic acetaminophen had an Amtrak ACS-64, four Amfleet 1 cars, a Conrail EMD GP15-1, and some Conrail rolling stock in it. The problem is more serious than I thought.

This sounds like exactly what I’ve wanted. None of the confusing newer mechanics, and no ban list. Yes!

Costco’s food court switching from Pepsi products back to Coke products is pretty unfortunate. I could ALMOST forgive them if they had Cherry Coke, but alas you’re stuck with the variety filled choices of Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, and Sprite.

Everyone bitches we don’t “save” enough money, and when we actually do, they blame us for causing a recession.
i don't want to hear your most boomer complaint. what's your most millennial complaint?

Post a movie you like with a terrible rotten tomatoes score.

This movie was the funniest thing in the world when I was a kid, and it's unfortunately formed a bit of my humor.

Oh boy a Nintendo Direct. Time for a circlejerk of negativity on my feed.

Remember when NFT people tried making “right-clicker” a slur for people that download image files.
It’s amazing how the nft craze didn’t lead to a single good or cool thing. Not one piece of art that didn’t suck

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Source code and a downloadable app to try it yourself […]
