the famous line about how michael caine treated the muppets as fellow actors and tim curry treated himself as a fellow muppet keeps running through my head we have a lot of brilliant actors, but how many of them can really pull off 'unhinged muppet' the way curry could? what a tremendous loss

So glad I made it to #ACPT this year!! Being behind the scenes as an official has been super fun and I’m excited to do it again next time (even though while marking puzzle 5 grids my brain dissolved into a pile of mush 🤡)

I guess this is like that part in Star Wars where there technically still is a Senate but the evil emperor is out blowing up planets because he feels like it. Frankly embarrassing for the USA that this simplistic sci-fantasy tale of space wizards is the level of subtlety you are at as a society.

Today is exactly 10 years after my life’s lowest point, the day I turned 25. I was cripplingly depressed and self soothed via sugar addiction. I was ready to give up on life. Today, I am living a future I didn’t think possible. I am truly happy. Recovery is possible, therapy is key. Hello, 35.👋

I know nearly everyone who follows me is already subscribed, but— There‘s a reason why my puzzle work these days is almost exclusively with AVCX. We all know someone in our lives who does mainstream puzzles, but doesn’t know that indies exist or how good they are. If you can, gift them an AVCX sub.

My dreams are all connected. Like it’s my own little Dream Cinematic Universe, where I might ref things from a dream ages ago. I’ll be like, “damn, this acid rain reminds me of that beach vacation where we got hit with a blood tsunami, remember that?” And everyone nods, like “yeah it’s been rough…”

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
