Wife & kid free the past 24hrs, so I had an A24 marathon: Babygirl, Heretic, X, Pearl, and MaXXXine. All were very entertaining, but of these five I think Heretic was my favorite

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”
The image is a heatmap titled "Measles," showing measles cases across U.S. states from 1928 to 2003. States listed on the y-axis include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The x-axis spans years from 1928 to 2003. A vertical line marks the introduction of the measles vaccine around 1963. The color scale at the bottom ranges from blue (0 cases) to red (4,000+ cases), with shades of green, yellow, and orange indicating intermediate values (1,000, 2,000, 3,000 cases). Before 1963, many states show frequent high case numbers (yellow to red), while after 1963, cases drop significantly, with mostly blue indicating near-zero cases.

We’ve started watching Premier League football and enjoy it much more than American football. The Mrs did some research & decided that Newcastle would be her team. When I asked how she decided, I found out it’s because they’re closest to the town from her favorite show: All Creatures Great & Small 😀

My wife and I don’t celebrate this day. We don’t see the reason to do that. We love each other and tell each other that every day. If you just save that up for one day, what kind of love is that?

Reading through Stony The Road by Henry Louis Gates Jr. Very informative and interesting. I think I’ve learned more history in the first chapter than I did in school.

I am still amazed at the questions my kid will ask. Just today it was: - Have you ever ripped a chicken in half? - Did you watch Barney growing up? - Did you like having braces? - Will you buy me a drum set for my birthday?

My son’s Minecraft home accidentally burned down, and my first thought was to play him this song. Needless to say, he wasn’t impressed 😀

I hate being sick. Aches and a stuffed nose… blah. Keeping the fluids and Kleenex stocked and close by. Hopefully past the worst of it now, but only time will tell.

Just realized it had been awhile since I heard anything about the 2 astronauts stuck in space. Found out they’ve been there for 6 months already! Praying they do well and have a safe return home in February.

No matter how many books you read, or others you talk to about it, parenting a neurodivergent child can be exhausting. Most days are amazing. Today was one of those other days and I just don’t know how to recover.

Why all the dunking on Skeleton Crew? It’s only a couple of episodes in. Can you at least let them tell the whole season before you complain? We’ve lost too many good shows because people online start this garbage without even giving it a fair chance. In other news, old man yells at the moon 😉

Family Christmas movies that are required each year at our house: Muppet Christmas Carol, White Christmas, and Elf. Every thing after that is gravy. I do add Die Hard to my own viewing list, but that’s just me.

It’s be nice if the ground was at least covered with snow. We’re in December and I just fell like snow makes sense mentally right now. How else can I truly enjoy hot chocolate and movies on a cool Dec night?

I don’t think I’ve wanted a set of minis more than this, unless it was a set of the Companions of the Lance. Of course both sets mean I’d still need a group to play with. Online might be okay, but there’s something about the face to face that just scratches that itch.

My son, who is ASD 1, has never been into games. On Halloween he got a pack of Pokémon cards from a house. He immediately wanted to protect them. Being a geek dad I had a binder set to go. Does he want to play? No. How are they organized? By health. Love how his mind works 😀

Because many of those on my life are not here, I feel like this is either a place for me to journal random thoughts, or simply scream into the void. Either way it’s cathartic.

It’s grey and cloudy here. Perfect reflection of my emotional state right now. To help get myself out of this funk, I’ve decided to start watching Cowboy Bebop for the first time. I enjoyed the live action Netflix version, so I’m guessing the source has to be better, right? Here we go.

The boy went fishing for the first time and caught a couple of blue gills (all tossed back). He had a blast and asked when we’re buying a boat.

Seeing a lot of dunking on The Flash movie. I saw it last night & thought it was very entertaining. Like the MCU, you don’t expecting Oscar winners. I think this is one of there better DC movies.

In my dream last night I was ushered into a band room and told I would have to learn to play an instrument. I wasn’t give. A choice, but instead just handed a flute. No idea what this means in the dream world, but it’s stuck with me all day.
