If you see your kid every day from the day they're born until the day they turn 18 you have 936 weeks. Not even 1,000 weeks from 0 to 18. It's 6,552 days, if you're curious. Something to think about.

It's vastly more comforting to believe in an imminent robot apocalypse than the truth: the things that will destroy us are extensions of the unsexy but obvious problems all around us. We are not doomed in one grand way, but a thousand petty small ways.

Castaway is really a movie about the power of totemic divinity, and the ways we create our own salvation by always looking to our future. By always remembering to keep breathing. Beautiful film.

It's really funny how every 6 months or so the AI companies get worried about funding so they push some bullshit story about it killing us all or whatever.

Despite all the technical issues from the venue, Leftover Salmon put on a hell of a show! Idk how they pulled it off given the rest of the night. Being stuck in a little concrete tomb wasn't great for Wyatt or Bronwyn... Like they are both incredibly talented artists and their bands are also full of

N64 OoT is a perfect encapsulation of how it feels to be a kid imagining what it's going to be like to grow up. Switch 2 OoT is a perfect encapsulation of how it feels to be an adult remembering being a child imagining what it's going to be like to grow up.

If you're ever worried about how people will look at a plot hole, remember that walter whites house should logically have 2 bathrooms but they only ever showed or mentioned one. Hank being in that particular bathroom is a moment the entire plot hinges on.

I was doing some cleaning up and found this old playmat, so I brought it into work to replace my current mousepad. Then I saw the signature. Then I noticed it was Seb McKinnon's sig. Then I remembered the freedom rally crap and why this was tucked away in storage in the first place. Hmm.

Back when I was a young man, CEOs made about 20 times the salary of their employees. Today a typical CEO makes over 280 times more. Here's what we can do about it.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Luke's favorite character across all the stuff he enjoys right now is Lumpy The Heffalump. Lumpy was incredibly unpopular. So now I had to order a "vintage" discontinued plushie so that my boy could have his elephant for his upcoming birthday. Never thought I'd be ebaying discontinued toys lmao

So I've made it to the end of ARR in FF14 using Duty Support exclusively. I wanted to start grinding Poetics, and jumped into my first Duty Finder queue. Wouldn't you know it, the VERY FIRST piece of content I queue up with a group is Ultima Weapon, and frankly I found that hilarious.

Hit FF14 credits post lvl 50 MSQ. That's a wrap on ARR? I quite enjoyed it! Even the fetch quests and some swingy voice work are charming for me in a weirdly nostalgic way. Surprisingly skillful camera work and writing got me into it and beaming by the end. Excited to see where it goes from here!

Wildfires in Canada mean it's so yellow outside it's like Mad Max, and the oldest kid remembers it being the same from last year. Wild new ecological world we're living in. It was never like this when I was a kid.

Just getting into FF14 free trial the last few weeks. Great game for when the fam turns in for the night. Last night I teleported to Gridania, and there I was in full pally armor next to someone in jeans and a tshirt and someone dressed like a playboy bunny. Truly, this is the FF14 experience.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

You ever go to make potato salad and fuck up half a dozen eggs by under doing them and cracking them all in a batch, then fuck up another half a dozen by overcooking them until they're nothing of sulfer, then have no eggs for your potato salad? Why are hard boiled eggs so goddamn sensitive?
