“you should put socks on that baby!”

I did. So many times.

"What I remember most about his dad is that he had a pet monkey he used to bring to the locker room on a lot of occasions" is a WILD story to just drop and leave.

I have now reached the "all my rough paper has been written on on both sides and around the edges and looks like the confession letter of a guy who thinks aliens are talking to him through a stuffed weasel and that's why he had to eat his neighbour's dog" stage of writing this book.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

Kahless tells us that even if you are confident that you can do anything, know that you can't do everything. Choose your battles wisely, concentrate on what matters most, and whatever you make of life, make it count.

The eye exam is the perfect game design. That big E is a great tutorial that teaches you the basic mechanic. But it doesn't baby you and quickly gets hard as they introduce the small and blurry enemies.

St. Peter: How'd you die?

Me: Buried under an avalanche of unused journals.

St. Peter *whispers*: Did you have some with the tiny grids?

Me *whispers back*: Of course I had the tiny grids.

St. Peter: C'mon in.

Bluesky has never felt more like the Twitter of old. Idiots are arguing with @joedisano.bsky.social for a hot take, conveniently skipping over the truth in Joe’s post for ad hominem insults of the caliber one associated with second grade

And now -- drum roll, please -- we get to everyone's favorite villain, the architect of everything that's wrong with the US today, the man whose administration is the inflection point of every single graph charting any measure of like ANYTHING over time: RONALD FUCKING REAGAN.

Guys I gotta be real, ever since taking over The Onion, I've been confounded by how much we still cover The Pope in 2025. It turns out it's because he worked in the Chicago office from 1994-1999. He wrote the headline "Area Man Dead of Fries."

I just did an homage @katbamkapow.bsky.social Twitch feature. There’s a Hammacher Schlemmer clearance section, and my threshold was $50 before shipping….

RIP George Lowe, the voice of Space Ghost, a show that emitted a specially tuned frequency to my 12-year-old self.

"I'm driving down Highway 40 in my big ol' pickup truck, Katie," in a Tom Brokaw impression still rattles around in my head all of the time for no reason.
