Ok, look...I just moved, I haven't owned a Christmas tree of my own in about a decade and I hadn't figured out if I want a tree this year or not.
And now I have to get a tree so I can hang Moopsy from it.

Want a Moopsy on your tree but they don’t make Moopsy ornaments? No problem! My son made a DIY Moopsy ornament!

Shit. This one definitely hurts.
Luckily, the exact thing that will heal that hurt is putting on some Stax/Volt records.

Look...is nobody going to talk about the fact that the (possibly) AI-generated song from that McAfee ad is a fucking jam? I don't care that the lyrics weirdly seem to spell out "JD" when converted to ASCII (literally the only thing I knew how to do; thanks, for-profit community college), it's a bop.

As the mom of a five-year-old reading this and imagining what this family is going through made me physically ill. Unimaginable evil is being perpetrated before our eyes and with our tax dollars.
A 6-year-old boy is missing after ICE arrested him and his dad in NYC last week and shipped them off to separate facilities. www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/02/i... @thecity.nyc @gwynnefitz.bsky.social

It's fascinating to me that "a life lived with no regrets" in my teens and 20s has led to SOOO MANY regrets in my 40s.
I guess that happens when you think "no regrets" means "do all the things", but later learn it means "do the right things now and you won't have to worry about them later".

Funny how, on YouTube, I keep seeing a McAfee ad all about security against AI fakes, immediately followed by an ad from Google spotlighting their AI's ability to generate images.

Just started a rewatch of ER for the first time since TNT was doing early morning marathons during my opening shifts at RadioShack.
S01E07, "Another Perfect Day": did ER actually start the whole "no, this is Patrick" meme?? 🤯

Sure, I *should* be focusing on building relationships, but then again....

Very interesting moment just now-
I was sitting in my car, playing with the Google Assistant settings for Android Auto. I saw that you could set up an automated task, so I decided to play with that.
"Read me the headlines from the national news" was the command.
I tested it:

I thought it was ridiculous as I was sitting in a McDonald's, overhearing a guy mansplain to the woman he was with that, no, she isn't afraid of heights, she's afraid of the sudden stop at the end of a fall.
Then I heard him telling her how much healthier raw milk is.

Imagine their surprise when they've "cured" autism and it doesn't make a dent in taxes or employment numbers, because as many of us as can are already holding down jobs, paying taxes, etc.
