Because I am the age I am I can confidently say the best line of toys ever created was the Adventure People from Fisher Price. I am not accepting arguments at this time.

I had to watch Draft Day to get me through to kick-off. It’s perfect. Oh, I know the script is bad and wholly unrealistic. And I know the characters are wooden tropes. But it’s perfect. And I love it.

Back when we were food and would likely die from something as a simple as a bone break, we didn’t have a lot of petty differences. And we didn’t make up stories about reality. As a species, we are acting like a fat and bored house cats.

If you’re a nerd and have resisted “Carl the Dungeon Crawler” because the title makes it seem like it’s not your thing, well, YOU ARE DENYING YOURSELF. Don’t be me. Don’t delay further. And if you like audiobooks you’ll be even happier. Joy awaits you. You could use some joy, right?

Watching Invincible. Due to my position I can only think of the economic damage every time they destroy streets or buildings. Like business insurance just couldn’t exist in that world. Sounds like a joke I know but it just pulls me out of the whole thing.

I have many artistic hero’s and people with which I’d like to have long, in-depth and deeply serious conversations. So many. But if you told me I’d have to pick or vaporize (even with EVERYTHING) I’d pick Kurt Russell.

derek's Black History Month thought of the day Day 8 cont. Saying something is different for one group isn't saying that it's better or worse - just different. Facing different sets of challenges means a person may see things differently. How you see that person is on you.

derek's Black History Month thought of the day Day 8 cont. Loyalty and trust hit different among Blacks. And that urge to rebut this that some are fighting with is the entire point of this post. Of course loyalty and trust is important to everyone. It can also be different.

derek's Black History Month thought of the day Day 8 "He don't know me very well, do he." Bugs Bunny nailed it with that one. You can't know someone you refuse to understand. You can't understand someone you refuse to see. You can't see someone you refuse to recognize.
