Well, this end title punched me in the gut. Probably shouldn't have watched this episode on my lunch right before a work meeting.

My friends and I exclusively refer to AIs as "the evil genie" or "the wicked djinn". "Supernatural wish-granting beings sealed in bottles who do not not have your best interests in mind," is a useful model for relating to the things.

I'm so proud of my himbo cat. He finally figured out how to jump up on my lap from the left side. It took all his brainpower to finally become an ambijumper.

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

Oh, Kanopy knows its audience. “Jessica Lange is back on TV? The gays LOVE Jessica Lange. We got any Jessica Lange in the back?”
Kanopy spotlight poster for The Great Lillian Hall:

Lillian Hall (Jessica Lange), an actress who is synonymous with Broadway, has never missed a performance throughout her long, illustrious career. Not for her daughter, not for illness, not for any reason. Yet in the rehearsals leading to her next Broadway production, her confidence is challenged.

If you ever hear someone say, “I don’t have an accent,” the correct response is, “In fact you do, and you ALSO have ethnocentricism. You have TWO things where you thought you had none!”

No one has ever actually hated to break it to you. They love breaking it to you. Breaking it to you does it for them, sexually speaking.

One prediction I feel deeply and have made a point to note for more than a year now is that a certain high-profile governor has never intended to run in 2028. Y'all know who I'm talking about, but I'm avoiding saying his name or state to avoid summoning the creepy crawlies out of the woodwork.

I recently moved back to my hometown after many years away. It's a place so specific that if I said anything at all about it, you'd know where I lived to within a mile radius of accuracy, so this is going to make the whole anonymity/openness balance game a fun little challenge!

I like how when the "Legend of Zelda" fandom is being reductive about what each game is about it goes like: * Link travels through time * Link sails a boat * Link experiences workplace sexual harassment at the hands of a shortstack catgirl that only he can see * Link rides a bird

Any time you buy a product that comes with a manual, see if that manual is available online — sometimes there’s a QR code on the packaging linking to it — and immediately bookmark that page in a folder named Manuals. Never struggle to hunt down a manual again!

Annoyed Disneyland never built a pod race ride in Galaxy’s Edge. They could have an arcade arena with motion simulator pods for eighteen racers to compete against other guests. The tracks in the games are usually <2 minutes, so it would have decent capacity. Imagine the surround sound experience!

In a very liminal place right now. I was meant to be moved from one end of this long state to the other last week, but the apartment isn’t ready on the date we agreed to, so I’m stuck waiting halfway for the moment and considering alternatives. Everything is fine, but I don’t really do patience.

I have copies of both “Paradise Lost” and “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” illustrated by Doré, and they’re just towering examples of the engraver’s art. The only one who even comes close is Albrecht Dürer, but I think Doré had access to better tools and technology in the 19th century.

Lifelong defender of The Simpsons here! Even if an episode doesn’t make me laugh, it still makes me smile, and that’s good enough. When this special episode (non-canonically) confirmed what state Springfield is in, I *cackled*.

Get this gem of a game while it’s free! I *hate* third-person RTS games and I don’t particularly like heavy metal, but I love the hell out of Brütal Legend. It was made with a very infectious love. Tim Curry was, as ever, the perfect villain.

The unit of maximal grieving a beloved celebrity is the parton, divisible into 1000 millipartons. Hitting, say, 100 millipartons at the end of your days would still be a respectable number.

I was already going to give Ted Lasso 4x03, “Richmond’s Got Talent”, a high score on IMDB, but the ending of the episode was an automatic 10/10.
