All respect to the people who paid 90k+ for the privilege, but whenever I see a Cybertruck in real life, I keep thinking I'm being tailed by the Go-Bots.

I would never say this to his face, but I'm really worried that Martin Sheen isn't going to text me anymore after the election is over. It feels like he only wants to talk about one thing. 🙁

I've been playing No Man's Sky a lot recently, and I can tell they are getting closer to hitting "true galaxy simulation" because the more varied and realistic the worlds are, the more I want to stay inside and play management sims and Space Pokemon.

30 mins after watching Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and it's already juking with Homecoming for my favorite Spider-Man film. It's absolutely the most grounded, and the most New York, of any of the movies in the MCU. And the best villain in the movie has a very short scene on a rooftop. IYKTYK

It just occurred to me that we are living through the first generational "changing of the guard" where both generations (Millenials and GenZ) have put a vast majority of their culture into a searchable, rediscoverable medium. The cringe from both sides is unavoidable.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

Some celebrities probably don't get recognized half as much as they otherwise would, because their audience is primarily introverts and homebodies.

Somewhere in a sweltering desert, cockroaches scurry around the cell of Carlitos Ricardo Parias. He holds up a plastic bottle, gazing at the worm-like creatures swimming in his water. His other arm is turning purple from a gunshot wound for which he says he hasn’t received proper medical care.

Playing a little Ghost of Tsushima, and when I highlight the enemies, I can see *one* that repeatedly looks like he's body slamming someone. Like "FROM THE TOP ROPE YARRRRRRRRRRRR" Over and over, and then he goes about his business.

"Everyone's seen Kill Tony but nobody's seen Tony kill" is not just a good joke, it's a grammatical accomplishment akin to discovering Niagara Falls: a work of natural beauty that was waiting for someone to find it.

@gamechanger.dropout.tv Watching the BTS for "Noise Some Makes" (one of the best so far, I was knocked out), and I had a question: how do y'all handle call sheets for the GC shoots? Do you black out the names of surprise guests? Leave them off entirely? Some third, less clandestine thing? 😁

ADHD results in piles everywhere. Piles of things you need to do, need to put away, need to throw away. It's very much like hoarding, without the sense of accomplishment.

Once I wrote a haiku (or more) every day for a month. This was my favorite one. It was one of those where I didn't know the ending till I fell upon it.
A haiku that reads: 

Pity her, sure, 
but Rapunzel's biography
is still a tough read. 

Day 2259, 
still in the tower. No calls. 
Hair grew 1 inch more. 

Kind as we may seem, 
we can't stand boring suffering. 
Sympathy craves blood.

I don't want to alarm anyone, but if you were wondering "how do the technocrats think the future is going to turn out?" The answer starts with, "well, the billionaires are teaching themselves how to farm."
