As people continue to post random funny clips of this show, I realized I never watched it fully (I don't have cable on only part for 1 streaming service). As such, before I start my horror season, I decided to give it a full watch-through and fully appreciate the genius of Donald Glover. #blacksky

"Atlanta" is an American comedy-drama television series created by Donald Glover that ran for 4 seasons and 41 episodes from 2016 to 2022 on the FX network.

I didn't think it was possible, but political attack ads have gotten exceedingly more ignorant. Don't these old people know how simple and easy it is to fact check anything in 2026? And can someone please tell them that using AI for all of their ads only makes them look more inept? #usa #politics

I've been brand loyal to Google for many years now - Pixel phones since they first launched, Pixel Watch, Pixel Buds, etc. Unfortunately, the WiFi mesh router system has been sub-par for some time now. Time to move on. Maybe this just isn't a space for Google. Hello Ubiquity 😊 #tech #wifi #network

It cracks me up that so many people STILL think that "pumpkin spice" means "pumpkin flavor" 😂 As for coffee, I personally like mine to taste like...well, ya know... COFFEE. #coffee

I will simply never understand racists - especially those who lean towards the so-called "master race" rhetoric. Because, at the end of the day, what's the point? What's to be gained? Are there some special little prizes that get awarded for it? Why spend your entire life focusing on it? 🤔

Just because you have figured out how to vibe code, that does not qualify you as a "Software Developer". Software development is a life cycle, and coding is a part of it, not the end-all, be-all of it. Some guy using Claude Code to bang out home brewed apps isn't automatically a software dev. #ai

I've reached that age where I don't really know who a lot of today's celebrities are. Not that I've ever really been into following celebrities or "stars", but I used to be able to generally recognize people when they would show up in movies, TV shows, or other media. Not so much anymore. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Whenever there is a huge lottery jackpot, they love to compare the odds of winning to the odds of being struck by lightning. This got me thinking - do animals get struck by lightning? Never seem to hear about it if they do. And has anyone ever lost a pet to a lightning strike? 🤔

This is something that I've pondered for decades, and it seems it comes up more and more nowadays.

Leo Allen @leojallenjr.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

As far as cultural appropriation is concerned, the term "Woke" will go down in history as the most misused and abused term of all time by pop culture. And it's ironic to me that it seems everyone just accepts its misuse. No current pop culture politician can define it, yet they constantly misuse it.

There are other great songs on the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack, but radio stations only play one song. Over and over and over again... 🙄

To be honest, the only thing I ever really liked about Chuck Norris was his brief appearance with Bruce Lee, and then the Chuck Norris jokes and memes over the years. Never thought he was a good actor by any stretch of the imagination.

Telling stories is a choice. Stories existed before us and will exist after we’re gone. There is no end or beginning, except for our perception. When we tell our stories we strengthen our connection to humanity. Storytelling is community and art. #storytelling

I keep seeing posts about "private" messages in Larry Ellison's Tik Tok. They show that if you insert the word Epstein in your conversation, it's immediately removed, and you're presented with a guidelines warning. Not for posting a video in the public feed, but one-on-one conversation with someone.

The one thing I'll miss most about Tik Tok is discovering new indie artists. Thankfully, I've found other ways to support the ones that I was following there.
