You couldn't publish this today. You'd have to cloak it under several layers of metaphor.

I hope Dan is doing well. It’s been a long while since I’ve seen him. How are you? What made you reach out?

Hello! Yes, Dan and I became friends through a college buddy in a pre-pandemic game group. I was shocked to hear he knew you — I’m a big fan of your work in Sentinels of the Multiverse. I even bought the albums! 😃

@pearlmania500.bsky.social I heard you utter a “Pronouns, pal!” during today’s @crashingoutshow.bsky.social episode. Was that a Vince McMahon reference?!

R.I.P. to Hulk. He was a great man who was frequently misunderstood but only acted the way he did because of the accident in that lab all those years ago. Wait, this isn’t about The Incredible Hulk but Hulk Hogan? Well never mind then, that guy can fuck off forever

Deeply disappointed that I can’t be out there with everyone today. This isn’t normal and we can’t let them forget. #NoKingsDay #staymad

5/ So I’m spending the rest of today with my politics brain off, just trying to take a moment to remember & feel grateful for those who made the sacrifices that let the rest of us cook hotdogs and enjoy a day off work. And I hope you can, too.

4/ It makes me mad and sad and tremendously disappointed that we can’t spend today thinking about the people who today is actually about, and instead have to focus on his repugnant nonsense.

3/ How many did it happily? How many don’t really pay attention to politics but have been assured that it’s all going just fine? How many of them perhaps don’t like him but still think he is somehow the lesser of two evils?

2/ I think about how much care I took to make sure I afforded them the proper respect and understood their wants and needs as best I could, as a civilian. I think about that when I look at this garbage and I wonder how many of them voted for it.

1/ I spent many years working with soldiers & servicemembers, and some of them would get upset if you wished them a “happy” Memorial Day because it’s a day of remembrance with a specific purpose and being happy didn’t have anything to do with it. Not a huge number of them, but not a small one either

If he pulls a rosary, you pull a Eucharist. If he sends one of yours the Vatican, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the Chicago way! #AmericanPope

Every time I see something on social media related to pro wrestling, I feel compelled to check the comments. And every time I am reminded why I should probably hate pro wrestling. And yet here I am, ready for Backlash on Saturday like some kind of goober.

Fun fact: Nothing in the law says the AG must be a lawyer. Reporting her to the bar wouldn’t necessarily strip her of her position.

My last three skeets all involve my daughter and all end with me trailing off and failing to articulate my frustration and/or disbelief. One could argue that this is a sign of lazy writing. I instead contend that this pretty well sums up my experience of parenthood so far.

My neighbor’s grandson drives a snowplow for the town, which is why her driveway looks like this at 6:30 in the morning. I’ve gotta get me one of those!

I always heard that people who earn fame & fortune @ 30+ are much better at handling it than those who find it in their 20s or (god forbid) younger. I’ve been biding my time & even gave it an extra decade just in case, but I’m happy to announce that I am officially ready to be rich & famous.

I really love this episode. It’s got the same “solve the problem in 45 minutes and hit the reset button” issues as a lot of 90s tv, but it’s got great performances and the story feels more relevant today than ever.

I mentioned #Bloodsport to my wife today and learned that not only has she never seen the movie, she’s never even HEARD of it. We’ve been married for six years. Together for 11. We have a CHILD together. It has never before occurred to me that I may have married the wrong woman…

I love a good cowboy movie, but the older I get, the harder I find it to root for wandering Confederate soldiers who turned into badass gunslinger heroes. Poor them, being forced by the evil North to give up the dream of owning another person.

The internet pop culture hive-mind is enraging. I can’t imagine growing up & feeling every opinion on something like Star Trek must be reviewed & approved by the Correct Answer Committee. I’m vulnerable enough to that groupthink as a 43 y/o. Can’t imagine being a teen or a young person. #oldmanrant
