Comedy writer and drinker. Currently working on "Beavis and Butt-head," as I was in 1995. All opinions are derived from reviews of books I didn't read.
We were talking in the office *literally yesterday* about a discussion like this happening on "Fresh Air"
The main difference between their characters is that I would view Butthead as being morally culpable for his crimes in a way I wouldn’t for Beavis. Beavis I’m almost instantly arguing down to manslaughter, Butthead is full Murder One

bros, is this science?

I am taking a break from loaded barbell back squats (still under 100 lb, squats are a struggle for me and I try to go low)

I feel like backing off and doing goblet and front dumbbell squats, ass to grass, will help ankle mobility

then I can do real ones better

I hope?

Gratified on a clinical level to finally have an ironclad example to point writers to what I mean by “don’t get cute”

It is crazy that there is no testing or licensing regime for these things, dozens of deaths later. A drug which had such serious mental side effects would have been withdrawn instantly
🚨OpenAI’s new “safer” version of ChatGPT actually allows more harm.

We tested GPT-5 and GPT-4o to see if GPT-5 was safer & found that actually GPT-5 gave MORE harmful responses.

Rooting for LA but not against Vladdy
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. GETS IT.

He's wearing a Marie-Philip Poulin jersey entering the Rogers Centre ahead of Game 7.

Captain Clutch. Just what Vladdy wants to be for the #WANTITALL tonight.

Good on Kiké for not dislocating Rojas’s shoulder when congratulating him

Anyone who did comedy development in the 90s/early 00s knows that, no matter what you pitched, the network would try to turn it into this exact show.
AI sitcom accidentally a Lynchian fever dream. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and insane lament.

Addison Barger and Emmet Sheehan were both minor figures in the 1950s NY literary world

I live in LA and my kids are Dodgers fans, but I wouldn’t mind a Jays win because somehow I think it’ll be bad for the Maple Leafs

True Grit ought to be taught alongside, or instead of, The Great Gatsby as The Novel That Is About America But Is Short

Loved this book, in part because so many of the people interviewed can’t resist mentioning how cheap their rent was.

More evidence for my “all white professional athletes who don’t play basketball are MAGA until proven otherwise” hypothesis
Since posting this, Turcotte, Zegras, and Fantilli have posted the exact same post to their stories. Pat Maroon and Will Francis made other posts mourning Charlie Kirk's death.
Columbus Blue Jackets star Zach Werenski has responded to Charlie Kirk's death by sharing an Instagram post by a site known as "MAGA Vogue".
