Still kind of love how his Freaks and Geeks character chose to revere Neil Peart of all drummers.

New York photo of the day Manhattan. 73°F (23° C), partly cloudy. #NYC #City #SignOfTheTimes #Travel #RushHour #FDR #Gridlock #Traffic #WeHaveASubway #EastHarlem #CyclingAdvert 🛣

Early evening scene in a hurried City on one of its busiest expressways during the rush hour; the automobiles crawl along the southbound lanes with their many red brake lights glowing because traffic ia moving sonvery slowly; a highway sign above the freeway reads "Average Travel Times: Queensboro Bridge thirty-eight minutes, Midtown Tunnel sixty minutes, Brooklyn Bridge eighty-two minutes", with the numerals illuminated with lights; for context, it takes about forty-five minutes to bicycle from here to the Brooklyn Bridge; cars are wack; a red brick public housing building stands behind the sign and rises above it toward the pink clouds of the overcast twilight sky.

This ongoing hideous experiment where tech guys think they're intellectuals because the LLM that sounds like their assistants tells them that Jesus loved the idea of the multinational corporations has to stop.

one of the funniest and most revealing things about america is how elite institutions really want to know what people who know nothing about anything think about fiscal and foreign policy

A lot of things make me feel kind of dumb, including how to take at face value the logic of “we are a multibillion dollar transnational industry building a vengeful elder god, and we definitely won’t stop unless you regulate us the way we want, which is a secret.”

Something I don't get is the gas station apparel style of American patriotism so common in the U.S. that the president even bedecks himself in it. The optics would be deeply weird if Macron, for example, just went around to official events wearing a cap that said "France" on it.

Definitely writing fables and myths and other simple stories I've wanted to write for as long as I've been writing, even if no one ever notices.

If not literary fiction, perhaps agents would be open to my considerable erudition in this field of inquiry.

The ersatz Starfleet logo is insult to injury. For a sadistic illiterate regime that exists to jam its ugly face in the feeding trough, this is hard to take.

Can't forget how in Born Standing Up Steve Martin recalls Glenn Frey telling him that it's "Eagles" and not "the Eagles."

It is remarkable how hatred of the vulnerable is so often a hallmark of bros who, ironically, think they're really smart because they have shallow, uncritically received values predicated on domination and profit.

“Earnestness is cringe” is just the mirror image of “cynicism is savvy” and the matching partner to “lol nothing matters” which is the fertile ground for fascism to grow. Hope is cringe. Progress is cringe. Change is cringe. Getting together with other people and imagining something better? Cringe.

[GHOSTBUSTERS] Murray has a genuine outré gift: he makes you feel that his characters are bums inside—unconcerned and indifferent—and he makes that seem like a kind of grace. (He’s always an onlooker; he won’t commit himself even to being in the movie.) (1984)
