Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Every department in a company should have a Cameo budget. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I absolutely do not believe any news that is reported by someone holding one of those Totino's pizza roll mics in front of their face. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Still haven't come close to this level of productivity 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I want to skip to the part where Matthew Rhys played the Anthropic guy in the movie and Taika Waititi plays the Palantir guy. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 11/09/2026More photos sneaking their way to the text site but a few from last night. 001
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Defending Your Life series centered on the people who work in Judgment City. 000

Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 30/07/2026It feels a little backwards to have acquired the new Strokes album on vinyl considering I bought all the old ones on CD when they came out, but the packaging is dope (and I dig the album itself). 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 23/07/2026If you don't love me at my Scrooge, you don't deserve me at my Ebenezer. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Also my heart goes out to the dozens of mid-twenties DC men who now have to scramble to come up with rent money. 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 12/07/2026The Grindr “In Memoriam” video for him was very touching, though I’m surprised they were able to clear the rights for Hall and Oates Maneater 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Also, sitting down to watch the only 4th tradition I maintain: 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Current view from my bedroom window (I swear this is not the result of me having sex) 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 15/06/2026"I had no idea this many people were also so passionate about text processing" - me right before being sorely disappointed clicking on the "Latex Day" trending topic 040
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Photos sneaking their way onto the text site, but here were a few from night: 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Look at this glorious Wes Anderson-ass fox outside my apartment on the walk home tonight. 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Spirit Halloween just champing at the bit to set up in those abandoned airport gates 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Last Summercon I attended was when it was at The Delancey (~15 years ago) but I just bought a ticket and am kind of excited. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 21/04/2026Pete Carroll was doing a long con, Tenet-style operation from when he was our coach. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 14/04/2026Also I will die on the hill that MiniDiscs were the coolest media format we ever had and that they didn't proliferate for data use (except for in the beginning of the Matrix) is a travesty. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 14/04/2026You gave your crush a mixtape; I curated a 240-minute guided sonic experience with skits and interludes on MiniDisc for my best friend that required her to also carry around a MiniDisc player. We are not the same. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 13/04/2026Wine shops and liquor stores setting up "for When it happens" endcaps 011
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 13/04/2026The Artemis crew landing is going to be like a reverse-Harambe and things will start to get better. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 11/04/2026I would write five insufferable screenplays and the core rules to a tabletop RPG. 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Everything's fine, they're adding five more minutes to the Doomsday Clock. It's currently 11:62 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 30/03/202620 years in the same apartment and yesterday was the first time anyone has ever canvassed at my door. No idea if that means anything but her campaign is at least making themselves known. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 27/03/2026I wanna love something as much as Tiger Woods loves drunk driving. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 09/03/2026They moved CCD to early Saturday morning (like 7) and my mom was too hungover to take me anymore. 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 06/02/2026Had I a single entrepreneurial bone in my body I would start a consultancy to spend the next few years parachuting in to companies and rip out their moribund agentic A.I. projects. Maybe don't even charge them but just film it like those lawn mowing social media guys. 100
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 15/01/2026The definitive pronunciation of Worcester is from this morning's Arabic language lesson: 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 14/01/20268 year old me playing Ms. Pacman on the glass table in the front while my parents are on drink number six on the stools in back and CCR's version of Heard it Through the Grapevine starts on the jukebox. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 09/01/2026Every day for the last ten years there's a "you mess with Spiderman you mess with all of us" moment, and instead every day, "It's terrible what he's doing to Spiderman". 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 29/12/2025At my first grownup job I had to troubleshoot a customer's non-working DSL home internet which was weird because I didn't work in support but it was a VIP named Donald Sutherland and when I called him it was the actual Donald Sutherland and he was super nice and chill on the phone. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 20/12/2025Though sympathetic to pedants upset about conflating techbro dipshit LLM snake oil with AI as a field, that is why historically the useful AI shit got broken off into its own thing so that "AI" can remain the ephemeral goalpost-moving domain of sci-fi authors. The machine learning people knew this. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 19/12/2025I'd say this is going to ruin the memory of the last show I saw there, but it was Louis CK so that memory is thankfully pre-polluted. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 04/12/2025I've never had a Spotify account and therefore have no idea how much I listened to whatever this past year but I sure as shit listened to this Portishead roseland NYC record a whole lot so I'm going to go ahead and claim I'm in the top 5% of listeners. 010
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 11/11/2025"Life is Beautiful Steel Magnolias The Blues Brothers Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans" I guess Port of Call is a little surprising, but the rest scan. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 06/11/2025Got to see @lukeoneil47.bsky.social kick off his tour last night for “We Had It Coming” at @busboysandpoets.bsky.social and it was a great time. 110
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 14/08/2025Apropos of nothing else, if this guy was a Nazi he'd already have a six-figure funded GoFundMe and a job with a VC firm. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 30/07/2025I got work to stop making me do "5-Why" postmortems because I always make the fifth why "Capitalism". Maybe that can help someone else. 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 23/07/2025Did I miss a @lukeoneil47.bsky.social Hellworld piece on the drama unfolding at Market Basket? I had to find out from an Instagram reel like a goddamned fool! 010

Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Me, a grownup commenting about the news: "This is just like Dr. Mindbender betraying Cobra Commander in GI Joe Season 2, Episode 1 Arise, Serpentor, Arise" 000
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 30/05/2025Of all the insane ads you encounter on the DC metro, like for missiles and death rays and nonsense, the ICE recruitment ads that have started popping up everywhere are straight up Paul Verhoeven Starship Troopers bullshit. 020
Chris Gale @m0nastic.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Status Update: to paraphrase a favorite movie, "Princeton can use a dog like Joel." 000
