I think the tendency to take older intellectual property and making it dark and gritty has run its course. Time to start adapting older texts to be maximally horny.

I was playing Control: Resonant and glitched through the floor and into a void space and the thing about a Remedy game is that I wasn’t sure if this was intentional or not. Turns out it wasn’t. But I was not immediately sure of that.

Last year after the Super Bowl, @thegiggas.bsky.social remarked that his team (Jaguars) has never even been to the Super Bowl. My wife, who has 0% interest in any sport, said “it’s okay, neither has my team.” This has spawned into an ongoing bit about how she is a die hard Detroit Lions fan.

Been playing a lot of Street Fighter 6, doing ranked matches and having fun. There are still a few characters I want to try on for size but… I think I’m a Yasmine main now?

It's cool and awesome that every century or so we have to relearn the hard lessons about why we invented government because some dumb motherfuckers forget that the cornerstone of Civilization is a thousand boring little bureaucrats doing their job, not Great Men Being Violent.

I have sort of accidentally taken a break from social media almost entirely. Not for any reason other than I suddenly forgot about it. It has been nice actually, except for the fact that I have many friends and acquaintances who I really only keep in contact with via the very same social media.

I realize it’s not the same system but also I’ve played Microsoft Flight Simulator and the AI ATC dropped me to 6,000 feet on a night approach into Boise and the mountain just outside of Boise is about 7,500 feet. There were no survivors. Color me skeptical.

The James Bond rewatch continues with the 1972 film “Live and Let Die”, which dares to ask the question “what if not only every Black person knew each other, but they were also part of the same massive heroin empire?” So. Y’know. That exists.

My wife, explaining Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, a movie I have not seen: …and he falls in love with a woman named Truly Scrumptious. Me: That’s a Bond-girl-ass name right up there with Pussy Galore. A day later she shows me the trailer for it and I see Ian Fleming‘s name on it. Oh. That explains it.

This is the most revealing peak inside Donald Trump's brain we've ever been given, in the sense that only someone with literal mush for brains would consider putting these songs together. It's baffling. When we ask whether Trump is a unique historical actor, this is the evidence pointing to yes.

Tried to flex this on a first date but the waitress
took it and asked what it was and why it said
"pissvortex" on it. I explained that it's called X
Money and she said they don't take that but
when I tried to explain she just kept laughing. I
told her just to try it so she did but it declined
which made her laugh harder. WTF @elonmusk

A second bidet has hit the household. (I ordered two but wanted to make sure the first one had no issues before installing the second, lest I make every bathroom in this house unusable. But both installs were successful.)

Literally any time there’s two of something I solemnly say “a second [thing] has hit [wherever the thing is].” Somebody brought a second pie to thanksgiving? “A second pie has hit the Thanksgiving dinner.” I’ve been doing this for like two decades.

I keep reading about this unity and bond that I truly did not see. It immediately went to Islamophobia. IMMEDIATELY. I did not ever see this shared purpose. This time was definitely unlike anything I’ve ever seen before or since, but not in a unity kind of way.
