I know it’s Toronto and everything but SRO Hawks tickets are over $80 on SeatGeek right now and man that just feels like too much

I wasn't really itching to play this anyway since the Prime series has never done much for me but hahahahaha man this is something

I think that if you're a clothing store and you have a generic size chart for everything instead of even fit-by-fit sizing you should sell everything to me at half price

It's extremely painful to see a writer use the wrong version of "poring" in the phrase "poring over"

I beat my clothes up too much to ever get truly NICE stuff especially if it’s everyday wear, but Champion’s reverse weave hoodies absolutely clears and I’m actually wearing one right now
Let me show you the difference between a $40 hoodie and a ~$100 hoodie. 🧵

I think the stuff that sticks with you when you’re in your 30s is almost more interesting than the foundational things
November 12, 2025 at 2:24 AM
I’ll skip over the more foundational books and say that I read INVISIBLE MAN by Ralph Ellison a couple of years ago and it’s really stuck with me more than I expected it to
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

I deeply, deeply miss when consoles were fun and interesting like this
"Scheduled for release on Wednesday, December 1, 1999."

The urge to bite down on these is strong. The most delicious looking N64s - Clear Red and Clear Blue.

Saving a penalty is honestly the coolest feeling

A really dumb pet peeve of mine is when broadcasters show stoppage time in the first half as contributing to the game clock. The 47th minute doesn’t happen twice and the second half doesn’t start at the new time! Just do an upwards clock of how much stoppage time has elapsed!!
November 8, 2025 at 6:23 PM
I think it’s only fair that Granit Xhaka takes a really fucking stupid penalty at some point today

The best — golden, crispy, perfectly flavored — spanakopita I’ve ever made or eaten, thanks to @Eatlikegreekwithjulie, who does a few things a little differently and it makes it so much more doable.
