I have a fail proof way to remember my password. All I have to do is say "What is my password?" out loud. BAM instantly know what it is. I don't know why this works, but it always does.

If the tariffs were ruled illegal by the Supreme Court and FedEx has already gotten $800 million in "refunds" from the US kleptocracy, why did they just ask me to pay $5 in tariff fees plus a $17 "processing fee" for a package I received last month? 🤔

To prep for Control Resonant, I’m taking another stab at playing through Alan Wake. Not my favorite style of game, but the world is interesting, plus the ties to Control and the FBC. Honestly, I’m mostly just playing for more episodes of Night Springs.

My wife is playing through Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (yeeeeeee!) and it is making me want to play through it again real bad. Also, I keep getting the itch to revisit Starfield. And Cyberpunk 2077. I think I can only handle one 80+ hour game at a time though.

Sometimes I think about the mountains of effort and flaming hoops news websites jump through to prevent you from simply reading text on a page and it really is no shock to me why news media is in a murder-suicide pact with the country.

No, this seems fine www.wsj.com/opinion/why-...
Most of us would struggle to imagine a world in which U.S. soldiers, police officers, Border Patrol agents and elected leaders could be dragged before an international court, tried by judges from random countries across the globe, found guilty under international laws we neither consent to nor control, and then imprisoned thousands of miles from America.

If this is true -- a very big if -- it is surely how McConnell would have wanted to go: exploiting the timing of the death of major figures (Scalia, RBG) for cynical partisan gain.

Saw Supergirl tonight. Perfectly cromulent film, but a little too tropey for me. Also, marketed very poorly as it is not a superhero action movie. It’s more… coming of age? In space. Chuds hate it because woman. They’re wrong, Milly Alcock is great, but pacing issues and support cast struggle. 3/5⭐️

We should rename it to the White Trash House. Half of the building is demolished, the other half is tacky, the yard is torn up from a drunken party where multiple fights broke out, and the pool is green and full of scum. All we need is a 80’s Camaro up on blocks in the front yard and it’s complete.

This review of Fahrenheit 451 written in 1954 slaps.

He foresees an America living in cities and at war with the rest of the world. A war is a matter of sending out flights of bombers and is over in 48 hours. All houses are fireproof.
Interior walls are huge television screens. Conversation is just mutual back-slapping. Education is just committing facts to memory. No opinions, no philosophy or sociology are allowed.
Religion is run by advertising firms and Our Lord is used for toothpaste advertisements.
