There are worse things about mike love but my personal least favorite thing is that he doesn't deserve a line of merch that says MIKE LOVE NOT WAR that merch/slogan is way too good for him

There’s this thing people do where they’re surprised that a rapper has read a book or knows any music theory or something else “intelligent”. Anyway, I hate it. Thank you.

Always been suspicious/resentful of "you won't understand until you're older" but boy there's a difference between 40- and 25-year-old me relating to the "it's good to be young but let's not kid ourselves..." in "You Were Cool"

LMAO sic semper scalpers. Imagine threatening to sue the creators of Pokemon because their adequate supplying has rendered your price-gouging ineffective.

65k/110k 10/22 weeks planned I'm not sure if I'll stop at 110k or if I'll go the whole 22 weeks (which will close out the year) Trying to think of it as the beginning of the second half rather than thinking of it as the middle because science says that's best

Since I'm working on writing a novel, I've downgraded several of my other goals. I was going to read a novel in Spanish (probably middle grades) for practice. I picked up a Don Quixote graphic novel instead, but my resolve has been severely tested by vosotros

I quit Twilight Princess last night because I was in an endless loop of trying to do a jousting (??) with a guy who had to be shot with an arrow, but I ran out of arrows and couldn't figure out how to get more It's antithetical!

Something I value from the first Zelda game-- something I think went a long way in shaping how I move in the world-- is how much potential there is for non-acquiescence. I can't do everything in any order, but I can do a lot of things in my own order. I can always disengage

An important PSA from Batman
a redraw of a the iconic panel from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, in which Batman breaks a gun in half, and says "this is the weapon of the enemy. We do not need it. We will not use it"

In my version, he is breaking the Inktober logo.

I keep trying 3D zeldas in case I like one someday I'm approaching the third temple in Twilight Princess and curious why "more modes of play" is seen as a good per se. I did not come to a Zelda game to fly as a dragon. Why do I have to do that

This is a really powerful defense of cities and indictment of non-urban America that is worth a listen. I have never heard another journalist and certainly not a politician have the courage to say this truth.

Little Monsters. I had taken warnings about stranger danger very seriously, but I don't think any adults had gotten specific about what the danger was. So every vague fear got pinned onto Howie Mandel's character for some reason

Kant’s Categorical Imperative includes the Formula of the Universal Law and the Formula of Humanity. Act as if your choice/act will be repeated by everyone; treat other people as an end not a means. AI is the perfect tool to violate both laws.

The day of writing I missed means I've written 83 of 84 days. Which rounds to 99% instead of 100%. And I know I shouldn't feel bad about not writing while sick, but it really helps to frame it like that

I did it. Nearing the temporal halfway mark and already past the word count halfway mark I missed one day of writing this week (the first time that's happened) due to illness. More importantly I still got the weekly goal. And I'm not letting imperfections feel like abject failures

Totally true that people can learn and grow and ought to be allowed to but it's also true that being disqualified from having a place of prominence has nothing to do with that
