Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 17hEvery time I turn on the game on TV during this series, the Brewers suck. They've been much better when I don't watch, so I'm doing the right thing and going to bed. 010
Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 18hExcellent story, confident directing. Performances by the two leads are strong, but I wish Sophie Nélisse wasn't benched for the final act. Covers much of the same ground as the 2009 film Mystery Team, but less goofy and tells a complete, compelling story. 100

We had a brief but electric chat about the novel she was reading. Alas, I couldn’t pursue it. We met because she was waiting for me to come out of the bathroom, and I knew too well what she was walking into. 1202
Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Oh, and bleeped swearing. A bleeped curse word is infinitely more funny than the actual word. 010
Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This was my exact experience. Three episodes was enough to realize that the magic was gone. Arrested Development worked in large part because it was a weekly network TV show. The move to Netflix removed the restraints that were key to its perfect pacing (commercial breaks, 22-minute eps, etc). 110
Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I recently acquired a "here, lizard lizard lizard" talking plush Taco Bell dog and did some messy surgery to restore his battery power. But the commercial it was based on? Completely memory-holed until I looked up why in the fuck this dog was saying that. 000

Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I have a friend who has always struggled to make her emails sound polite, and she'll feed her work email through an AI bot when she's trying extra hard to seem nice, like for that one boss who's a huge pain in the ass. Seems like a fine, niche use for AI. 000
Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Things I've learned: fake blood takes forever to dry but also looks crazy realistic, I need to preserve my voice because doing screaming/yelling jump scares for two hours absolutely destroys me, and you can make an amazingly disgusting costume for like $13 at Walmart. 000

Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 04/10/2026My brother's haunted camper was a success. The whole family got involved. Uncle Al was crowd control, my wife and 6yo were scarers in the woods. Grandma was the evil witch at the entrance. Inside, the scarers included my two nephews and two nieces, me and my 9yo daughter, and my brother. 100

Dorkenstein's Dad @dorkdad.bsky.social · 01/10/20262-3% of deaths for 80yo men are from falls, so there is indeed a statistically decent chance of your scenario. And that mfer has some compounding factors, depending on what rumors you believe (early dementia, wearing lifts to look taller, etc). 010
