You have to look for the bright spots in these dark times. So I will celebrate not being picked for a jury after three days in court.

Sitting and staring at a statue near the Cathedral of St. John the Divine with a bloody carcass of what I believe to be a skinned rat less than ten feet away.
Happy new year.

The snow has melted off the ground revealing that the grass below is a beigy-brown and the last embers of flame in the fireplace burned out hours ago. But the Blue Jay is back on the bare tree.

No more Pornhub in Florida starting in January. Florida men will just have to jerk off to mental images of all the freedom they have.

My journalism career might as well be dying, so my Make-a-Wish was to attend a taping of Comedy Bang! Bang!, the ultimate improv comedy podcast I've been loving for ten years. I wrote about that, and the joy and legacy of the show. Thanks @scottaukerman.bsky.social!
How Comedy Bang! Bang! became the 'SNL' of podcasts for funny performers who act on their feet
The podcast recently returned from a tour that took creator Scott Aukerman and guests around the country and to the U.K. Friday, the tour culminates in a show at the United Theater on Broadway.

I’ve decided to stop hoarding things (as much).
I used some of my airline miles to book a flight to New York.
I brought two bottles of whiskey to a friend, and two bottles of wine for Thanksgiving. These drinks are to be shared and drank, not just stared at and collected.

Trying to decide which I hate more: the idea of moving again, or realizing how secretly expensive and terrible Florida is/has become.
