I let 3 polka dot plants go bonkers in the ground this spring/summer. I’m going to dig up the roots and pot indoors, but there will be SO many cuttings. Are polka dot plant cuttings a thing people want? Should I just toss them? Apparently they grow roots quite easily!

Damn nobody warned me about the absolute punch in the face that is Harlan Ellison’s Deathbird. He’s emotionally dense across the board and wringing my brain out like a wet washcloth, but Deathbird, woof. I think I was meant to read it at this precise-ish moment.

If you don’t holler “SKIN MAN!!” every time you see Mitch Pileggi’s name in the opening credits, are you EVEN watching The X-Files?

Matthew Rhys looks like he’s about to ambulate to the top of a large knoll where he’ll pen a four-part narrative poem about a young, melancholic man disillusioned with the youth spent he in reckless abandon and revery.

I’m so deeply invested in our binge watch of The X-Files that I actually screamed out loud when the title sequence was different at the start of season 8.

Kicking dirt pouting sighing loudly cuz it’s September 1 but also 88 degrees so I can’t wear any of my oversized black spooky themed crewneck sweaters outside

Say what you will about Al Yankovic, but I’ve been seeing this man’s live shows since 1999 and I’ve never *not* seen the same bassist, guitarist, drummer, and keyboardist supporting him. Al’s band loves him. I love him. (Thank you, Bermuda, Steve, Kimo, and Rubén!)

In high school I wore novelty tees and buttons to celebrate the weird shit I loved. In my 40s I’ve matured so I wear crewneck sweaters and enamel pins to celebrate the weird shit I love.

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve seen Fox Mulder stick his fingers in an unknown sticky substance I’d have…oh…probably about 153 bucks.

Here’s a sentence I never thought I’d have the cultural knowledge to say: the third installment in The Mummy franchise was kind of ok up until the Yetis arrived.

My dream was to work with orangutans. instead this is my daily corporate job food pyramid.

A shittily drawn food pyramid representing my day to day in a corporate job. Tippy top is “doing actual work.” “Second down is “people need shit from me” next is “rescheduling meetings at the last minute” and the bottom biggest row is “meetings” and “people still need shit from me”

Snuck the France-Spain game onto the largest screen I could find at the office.

Hear me out: a “The Office” style mockumentary remake of The X-Files but AD Skinner is Kash Patel.

Any recos on a spot in the twin cities that will be showing the Norway England game but *won’t* be nuts to butts? I live walking distance from Brit’s and The Local but, like…hard pass.

Just watched X-Files s3e20 and this Mulder shriek will be burned into my brain for eternity. Darin Morgan is my new favorite person.

We’re halfway through s3 of The X-Files and I don’t think I’ve ever loved anyone as much as I love Mulder and Scully equally.

Saw the Polymarket ad feat. Rick Rubin that’s been airing during World Cup games yesterday and it was the most depressing, horrifying, late-stage, inhuman thing I’ve ever seen! So that’s fun!

X-files s1e23, Mulder makes a Beakman’s World reference. That’s all.

I do think the continual desecration of our public monuments and the use of our public spaces for private gain, (not to mention the lingering trauma of the assault on our democracy Jan 6 2021,) is a serious public harm that has to be reckoned with.

Had an anxiety dream last night (no joke) where I was desperately trying to call Michael C. Hall because we were going to be late to the airport but I couldn’t do it quickly because 1) you can’t type in dreams and 2) he was in my phone as Michael Tiny Baby Man.

Ok I’m about 760 pages in now and DESPERATE to talk to someone about this book. It has taken my breath away.

My celebrity boyfriend Hamish Linklater was great in Widow’s Bay and I look forward to the next miniseries where he, for the third time, plays a fucked up dead guy on a New England island.

I got drunk at the Girl Talk show at First Ave in 2012, got invited on stage to dance, then took a Nice Ride bike home which is a very “living in Minneapolis when you’re 26” story.

(I’m rewatching The Final Sacrifice for the billionth time) the magic of MST3K is when the jokes come so fast and consistent you can’t catch your breath for laughing so hard. The ten or so minutes after Troy and Rowsdower meet is magic.

We should all be terrified of how laser focused health care companies are on AI SEO and showing up first when someone in need of help asks care-related questions of an LLM. They treat as a new way to pay their way to the top of the search query what a lot of people treat as actual knowledge.

Tim got Peacock so we could watch the game and apparently the lil’ bet-on-the-game ad pops up and if you don’t tell it to NOT expand, it takes up 1/3 of your screen until you exit or, presumably, open the betting app? We need a stronger word than enshittification.

I just met virtually with the minister who will be performing my un-baptism ceremony at the Satanic Temple in Salem on my 40th birthday and everything about that sentence is the coolest thing I’ve ever said.
