Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 22/03/2026I now own an absolutely embarrassing amount of knitwear for a Floridian. I have a glorious shawl collar cable knit cardigan that weighs about 8 pounds and I can wear maybe 2-3 times a year. No ragrets. 010
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 21/03/2026When the Ralph Lauren Purple Label wool/cashmere blend suit ($3500-$4500 new) you got on eBay for $215 fits like a dream with only a couple tiny alterations needed.media.tenor.coma man with long hair is sitting in front of a laptop computerALT: a man with long hair is sitting in front of a laptop computer 010
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 16/03/2026OBAA on the other hand, felt like a political dark comedy that I’ve seen multiple times, with a little blacksploitation sprinkled on top. Like a “what if Tarrantino was a polisci major instead of being really into martial arts movies?” 110
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 16/03/2026Sinners certainly had its flaws but I also thought it brought some new/unique things to the table that will make it a continued talking point. The idea of the cross-cultural vampire mythology, the dance scene, the twin performance, etc are all things that will still be remarkable decades from now. 100
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 16/03/2026It just feels like the voters wanted a film that spoke to the political moment and saw a lot in it that wasn’t actually there. In ten years, we’ll still be talking about Sinners. I do not think the same can be said for One Battle After Another. 111

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 02/11/2025Haven’t had a really good find thrifting in a while. Found an Eton button down that fits great in great condition yesterday for $14.99. That’ll do. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 25/10/2025Nervous about this quali. Lewis was really fast in FP3…when he could keep it on the track. Very feast or famine. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 16/10/2025Miso glazed cod, spicy stir fried broccolini, home made chili crisp. Did the fish in the toaster oven since I was only doing one portion and it didn’t get hot enough to really brown the glaze. Still tasty, though. 020

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/10/2025Hard to believe there was no warning on the telemetry that the pads were about to explode, but here we are. 110
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/10/2025Or, he will in fact catch Kimi immediately before his brakes explode. SMH. 110
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Hawley has a style that is more about exploring ideas and sometimes his plots don’t connect up fully and his characters don’t always feel fully developed because they are more there to represent an idea or even a universal/natural force than an actual person. I like it but it’s not for everyone. 110
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 25/09/2025Prometheus is probably the peak of supposedly smart people doing incredibly dumb things. AE didn’t seem particularly egregious in that to me, but it’s part horror genre so that just comes with the territory. 110
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 25/09/2025I liked it a lot. How did you feel about Fargo? Hawley definitely has a style and super tight plotting where everything is explained and connects perfectly isn’t part of it. 100

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 19/09/2025The unraveling of this dude is going to be one of those “slowly then suddenly” situations. We’re in the “nothing happened for a few months so people moved back to Mount St Helens” phase of things. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 18/09/2025FWIW, while it’s obviously completely unacceptable to have the FCC chair pressuring affiliates to take Kimmel off the air, his comments were inaccurate and inflammatory. Whatever Tyler Robinson ends up being, he’s not mainline MAGA and it’s not helpful or responsible to make that accusation. 000

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 28/07/2025I always find it funny when the discourse gets into “men dress for women” and “women dress for men” and if we were really honest with ourselves about what compliments actually resonate with us, we’d admit that we are all dressing hoping to get approval from the gay men in our lives. 041
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 27/07/2025The TikTok algorithm gets so incredibly specific and repetitive that it can give you a wildly distorted perception of what is in the national zeitgeist. My algo would have you believe that theee is major controversy over Sydney Sweeney’s jeans ad and Ralph Lauren’s Oak Bluffs collection. 020
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Thought experiment: Would all the money being poured into AI clusters be more or less of an economic/environmental disaster if the companies instead built factories to light equivalent amounts of cash on fire? 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Ribs aren’t just for smoking. Oven roasted with tomatoes, onions and peppers that cook down into a jam here. Sautéed corn with Calabrian chili and lemon juice. Arugula salad with vinaigrette and fried almonds and garlic chips. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Yes, I’m rewatching season 2 currently to remember what happened. It will be interesting to see what happens with a reduced budget and new show runner. Not super optimistic. 000

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 11/07/2025Look, I’m not saying it wasn’t tasty, but that antipasto salad didn’t look THAT good. 210
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Well, I think Lewis can get George on pace, and the chance of fuckery between Max, Lando, and Oscar seems high so podium is still a good possibility. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/07/2025No player had a better collection of nicknames. Hefty Lefty, Battleship Lorenzen, Round Mound of Touchdown, there were so many… 020
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Man, Vasseur might not have made it out of the track alive if they had cocked up the strategy so badly to get Lewis knocked out in Q1. 020
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I didn’t play the game, but haven’t gotten that message from the show at all so far. The futility of revenge seems to be the dominant theme that is emerging. 000

Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 02/07/2025It was good. Not as good as Season 1, but still very good. They had all the problems that caused the game to get review bombed and the double whammy of getting people who worship flaming them for every minor change. 100
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Risk was low, but reward was zero from the team’s perspective. They don’t benefit anything by Lewis jumping Charles. 000
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Meh. He’s proven he has pace, but consistently makes bad decisions on the track that ruin his race. 100
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Ferrari should have pretended to consider Lewis’s request not to stop, but they were 100% right There was no benefit to the team to be had. 100
Alan @idontwan2know.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I’m a bit tired of his fan club. His finish today had nothing to do with the car and everything to do with him running into everything on the track. It’s a bad car and he’s driving it badly. 110
