I don't know if this is good. Still funny though.

Morning thoughts... I'm 48, I danced with Just Dance last night like I just don't care. Today I thought "I can eat breakfast in the barhtub" so I did.

Do unexpected things, because why not?

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Yesterday on NPR there was a bit about "what is place you consider sacred?" I'm still mulling that over. In the meantime, today's random driving playlist:

I don't know what's more disturbing, the fight to tear apart natural landmarks or T-Bag with another absurd Day 1 promise.

This is who I am. 48 years old, and ready to roar.

That's jalapeño, red onion, and mushrooms cooked in bacon grease on low, after 10 minutes, added rib tips meat, and will go pita style into leftover garlic naan. #howIroll

Well, I'm still a comic nerd, and always have plenty to say about it.
The Best Comics of 2024 by Arcadian2011
Well, as someone who used to own a comic shop, and really pushed the off-the-path titles and strange gems, I've never been satisfied with anyone else's best of the year lists. I generally hate Marvel,...

Not sure if the red caps on those mushrooms make this a Christmas painting but this year this as close as I’m going to get.

Finished! About 8,544 pages of epic samurai story over all of 2024. Now I'm a bit sad it's done. Don Quixote in 2025?

Ok, I've watched The Cabinet of Dr. Calagari (1920), Nosferatu (1922), and Frankenstein (1931) this fall. Frankenstein was awful.

Every time my phone says "important security update needed," there are at least 3 new unsolicited new games in my apps. Not important. Deleted.

Spent a little more than 2 hours with what remains of my comic shop today. Found some impressive things, obscure treasures, and still can't figure out how to massively downsize it.

I really hope there is a god of music, and when I die, I get to go a place that's one big orgy of sounds. Today, not only did I have a run of Chapple Roan to Jain to Big Wett, which was so much fun, but now I'm rolling through Fad Gadget, Dwarves, Bobby Lees, Mekons and "Everybody's Gotta Live"
