I tell ya, a Weird Al show is always a wholesome good time.

Photo of Weird Al and his band on stage, plus some Star Wars characters. The band is dressed like Star Wars too because they’re playing a Star Wars-themed song.

Just got a backup VCR. Just in case I need to watch a videotape and my main VCR doesn’t work.

I’ve never been on *Bob’s Burgers*, but if I was, I’d basically be this guy with grayer hair.

The Doc Savage movie never seems to be streaming anywhere, but it’s on the TCM app for the next few weeks. Check it out if you like George Pal movies and/or pulpy adventure.

I’m trying to erase this stupid MacBook. If that fails I guess next option is throwing it out the window into the swimming pool.

You can basically get a good photo in Iceland everywhere you point a camera.

This kind of blew up, so here’s Emma all grown up. She’s still adorable, just less scruffy.

Here’s my Emma when we first found her. Pretty skrunkly.

A tiny calico kitten. She looks tired, and her fur is a mess. She’s lying on a yellow towel.

This is a nice 3 disc CAV boxed set, but I don’t think it’s the same as the one you linked to. Here’s the back…

*Amazing Spider-Man* 180. Getting this is one of my oldest pop culture memories. Sold it and the rest of my collection years ago and then bought another copy of 180 a couple years back.

Amazing Spider-Man comic book issue no. 180.

Wawa has the best EV chargers. Fast, and also they have a delightfully retro design.

I’m a little annoyed that they made a Spider-Man toy based on the old 1970s TV show while the TV show is still unavailable on DVD. But I totally bought the toy anyway.

Whoever invented these DVD box stickers should be jailed at the Hague.

DVD case, focus on the impossible-to-remove “security” sticker they used to put on DVD cases to prevent shoplifting or whatever.

A fun thing about recording drums with MIDI is you can easily add all kinds of random percussion instruments, like shakers, tambourines, congas, timbales, and guiros.
