I build websites for a living and do a lot of other stuff for fun, including building websites.
My humble contribution to the One Battle After Another heap of memes.

Wow so Apple is just wholesale ripping off Raycast. Ngl that’s a bummer.

@allie.bsky.social Apropos of nothing I came back to the piss video this week and it truly is an incredible achievement. All of which is to say, I noticed that you have merch, and I for one would instantly buy a “don’t talk to me till I’ve had my morning mug of piss” mug or whatever. Just sayin.

There is a moment at what feels like the half way point of Sinners that is unbearably lovely and reminds me more than a little of the school gym sequence in the recent West Side Story. Immaculate visual storytelling.

The people in this showing are less pumped about fist bumping or apelleting ourselves as “The Brutalist Piss Squad” than I expected during the intermission.

This is my favorite line in any movie ever.

My spouse will give me shit for this because I have declined to go for like 15 years now but the Cup Noodle Museum might be the most innovative museum I have ever seen.

If there’s any question about my waspiness, my child has requested I make a Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me card for their audio player.

My spouse getting a byline on the Substack of a journalist we have been a fan of for more than a decade is… I’m bursting with pride and life is weird.

The number of switch games that require an online connection or nah you for being in airplane mode is a huge bummer… ya’ll know it’s a portable system, right?

Using only a restaurant, tell us where you went to college.

God grant me the confidence to coin a word like brainchild instead of just saying idea.

If Alan Wake turned out to be a creative director at a major game studio, he’d be Alan Lake. We gotta find a remedy for this ignorant discourse kids.
If Alan Wake turned out to be a seismologist, he'd be Alan Quake. C'mon, you don't gotta be smarter than a box of rocks, folks.
If Alan Wake turned out to be a baker, he'd be Alan Cake. C'mon, use your noodle, folks.

Man I can’t believe I slept on One Cut of the Dead. What a remarkable movie.

Alan Wake 2 spoilers for a very specific subset of elder millennials so ya know scroll on if that bugs you…

Holy shit a new Poe song. This is unfairly laser focused subject matter.

Newsflash that should surprise no one: Alan Wake 2 is… pretty fuckin’ good.

I was today years old (meaning 39 because it’s my birthday) when I found out you could lift and toss the car in the Simpsons arcade game. How did I never try that before?

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world, I feel like I can't take it.

I’ve said precious little here but it must be stated: The Creator is an irredeemably rancid piece of shit of a movie, and even if it wasn’t astonishingly racist, which it is, it’d still be an insipid and insight-less waste of time and resources.

My kid spent all of our nightly reading time reading to me for the first time ever today and, uh, sure wasn’t expecting to digest that milestone on some random unassuming Tuesday night.

The other Robert Brandin was my grandpa. My best friend (who was stationed half a world away) sent me an email with his (my grandpa’s) obituary in college joking “lol ur dead” to which I got to respond with the most gloriously awkward email saying no, the guy I’m related to/named after is dead.
The other Star St.Germain got married and already had a different name before I even learned of her existence. There can be only one.
Other Brandon Seifert works in the space industry and went to school in Colorado. I get emails meant for him; he gets tweets meant for me. He’s a cool guy! We follow each other, and when I saw the brandonseifert.space domain was open, I clued him in and he snapped it up. :)
