Texas chain saw massacre is full of plot holes... what happens to the victims when they die? is there an afterlife?

I kind of feel like generative AI is stealing my job but also when I watch an instagram video of a Japanese rockabilly guy playing Stray Cat Strut it suggests I search for more videos about “orange electric guitars”

We really like our daycare but it tickles me that they claim they’re a Montessori and every time I see a picture the kids are all doing a coordinated task led by a teacher

I left off the worst part which is that a lot of them are formatted as a compass so it’s like “Television are more ‘street fight’ than the Feelies, who are ‘Record Collector’, but their riffs are more angular while the feelies have classic melodies”

This instagram account has precisely targeted me and every day shows me “the 5 best slacker rock albums” “7 college rock albums you may have missed” “lazy stoner 80s jangle for your Monday” “70s power pop that picked up where the Beatles left off” “Adventures of Pete and Pete energy”

I’ve heard it said that when you eat a legume, you make a leg out of you and me. But that doesn’t make much sense, does it?

I do not think there is risk of my family moving to a red state, but “you can live in a ranch house near the diner with really good chili dogs and punk on the jukebox, they don’t allow smoking anymore” does have a certain charm

I have followed this woman in my hometown on instagram who I did not initially realize was a real estate agent, and this is how i discover all the slightly trendy yuppies have moved to the neighborhoods where I used to see house/warehouse shows

The mobility of children is simply not taken seriously or viewed as important. Something illustrative is how people will often say that kids "don't count" when you remind them that children and young teens are nondrivers who deserve the right to get around without cars.

I started college as a cognitive science major and never got over the feeling we weren’t learning The Real Stuff. I miss it though. Reading about all these bird experiments is getting me hyped

Dan Burton @dbstandsfor.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I am reading a book about bird cognition and had the thought you could probably get an LLM to say some really silly things about the mental state of other beings. Like that has to be an area where the machine can’t statistic its way into getting it

Idk if I 100% stand by this book but “Low Life” has some great stuff about early NYC gambling

I am simple and I can’t even emotionally relate to hating the Dodgers. They’re all so nice!

Dan Burton @dbstandsfor.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

An underdeveloped part of my brain because of not watching sports growing up is that when someone hates the Mets or roots for the Phillies or whatever I’m like “whaaaaaaat?”

This is right when I started listening to the alternative rock radio station, and I had a piece of torn out notebook paper where I had written “system of a down” “incubus” “rocking the suburbs” etc so I could look up the bands

parental leave didn’t feel like a special treat or a terrible slog, it just felt like “this is how life should be.” I feel the same way about Southern California weather. “I deserve this”

Feeling fucked up because all the dads at daycare have cool jobs. They’re all like “i wrote a book about a medieval poet” “I am an architect who only does art museums” and I am like haha I’m a computer programmer, no I don‘t do the website, I tell them how many people saw each advertisement

Some real weird gothic (?) shit that Charles Bonaparte married his cousin to “preserve the dynasty” and then ended up living outside Philly and studying birds after the Bourbon restoration. They lived in his uncle/father-in-law the former King of Spain‘s lake house

I love the Sheryl Crow song “all I wanna do” very much and I have thought a lot about whether you could do a worthwhile cover of it. All I can come up with is “Damaged” era Henry Rollins rant version

The car crash was especially stupid— one guy pulled over halfway with his car still partially blocking the lane to drop someone off, then accelerated to get back into traffic and got hit by a car gunning it to go around him

Something weird in the air yesterday: - school bus hit a building in my neighborhood - I saw a car crash (everyone was fine) - turned on the Met game right as two guys collided and one got a concussion - immediately afterwards I slammed our front gate into my foot and drew blood

It tells you all you need to know about the role of policing in general that the people who are constantly shrieking about low-level crime and homelessness and bike lanes (lol) as intolerable intrusions on our quality of life have no problem with this
