I got a new shirt. My wife approves.

I'm in a lot of smart home forums and all these bros are reprogramming their Alexa and Google Mini to respond to "Hey Jarvis", and I'm over here mapping the phonemes for "Showtime, Synergy!"

Only @bfd could have tried to paper over his massive insecurity by christening himself "The Algorithm". He was the best kind of heel, one who thought himself a babyface. My condolences to those who lost him; I'm still mad 30 years later.

We Have Always Lived In the Torment Nexus

We've been thinking that the data center boom is being driven by a few voracious, greedy geek billionaires, but what if it's actually nascent AI manipulating markets and companies behind the scenes to feather its nest, so to speak, and bring about the singularity?

It turns out that old Facebook accounts from when it was only open to students at select colleges and old Twitter accounts from when it was SMS-based are worth big $$$ to marketers. Both platform algorithms are hot garbage now so I'm selling my accounts effective 1 Sept 2026.

I'm nearly 50 and I think I might be an adult now?

A lot of white people who believe they are the master race seem very intent upon destroying the environment, leading to heat and sun indexes that they are racially less likely to survive due to the generic disadvantage of their low melanin counts.

It is ridiculous that "How Soon Is Now", the ultimate shy youth loneliness anthem, was used on the soundtrack of The Craft, and that Charmed used it as its theme song as a result.

I will never use a social media platform or app or API that makes it difficult to pick up where I left off and read every post from those I follow in chronological order. I don't want new or shiny, I want confidence that I'm not missing anything.

The priest cited an Arab proverb: "You forget those with whom you laughed, but you will never forget those with whom you wept." Trauma bonding is a thing, yes, but exalting it should be antithetical to Catholic theology. If the News is Good then shouldn't you bond in joy?

It's wild that Jesus doubled down on eating flesh and drinking blood, pretty much the most taboo place he could have gone. Sadly, Christian Nationalist edgelords would probably equate that with "owning the libs" rather than questioning sacred cows.

Twenty years ago you never could have called a show "From", it would have been completely unsearchable. Now I can Google "guy from from" and it knows I mean Harold Perrineau.

There is a bike lane wide enough to drive a bus down but all the bikers are on the sidewalk trying to run me over.

Guillotine futures just keep rising. How high can they possibly go? 💎💎💎👊👊👊🚀🚀🚀 🌕🌕🌕

The Name of the Winds of Winter, amirite?

You can't worry all the time. I hope.

Freshman spring break beach trip, in search of greater neck-up sun protection, I found a discarded wicker bucket hat. Days later I saw a bunch of them at DQ, inverted, holding flower pots. I spray painted mine chrome and wore it anywhere sunny for the next 4 years.
