After only 10 years investigating McDonald's Pizza and related matters such as whatever happened to it, etc., I may have "cracked" the case "wide open." For more information, listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/1hZ6...

I summarized this story in a comment the other day, but I'll go into more detail here, in what's known as a "thread." I once had an hour long conversation with the legendary comic book artist Neal Adams about his theory that the earth is hollow.

Before Sunset has perhaps the best closing line in all of cinema: “Hurry up, idiot! Have you seen the security line at Charles de Gaulle?”

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities. Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

It would not be very difficult to convince every ICE agent that there is a protestor hiding in their own mouths. See what happens.

Point taken, but I do not appreciate this disparagement of those who skipped class.

This program should prove quite satisfactory to the core audience of “gamers” (i.e. chronic onanists).

RIP Mr. Scott Adams. Dilbert was no Ziggy, but I believe everyone has to agree he was a character in a different comic strip.

Neither snow, nor sleet, nor “wintry mix” will keep me from having Ziggy comic strips described.

There is a “Shirley Temple” flavored variety of 7-Up available now (named after the drink named after the starlet), and I have an arrangement with my “Ralph’s guy” (named, coincidentally, Ralph) to make sure my stock is never depleted.

I am very fortunate to know someone who was involved in the LA/SLO SF scene at the time. He often mentions how intimidatingly tall Leiber appeared, especially when sitting beside Harlan Ellison.

Yes, I am in consideration to be the new editor-in-chief of CBS News. No, I will offer no further comment on the matter pending negotiations. However, I am proud to present a new episode of The Daily Zig, in which Jordan and I ponder why Ziggy seems to lurk near mall Santas so often.

Unfortunately, the New School just canceled their Ziggy Studies PhD program and offered its sole professor (tenured; seven-figure salary; university-provided SoHo condominium) early retirement, so this podcast is the best a Ziggy scholar can get.

On this “Cyber Monday”, why not stop “cybering” with your online lover and instead support independent booksellers by making a purchase on Bookshop.org, perhaps even purchasing the latest issue of the Raleigh Review, in which a short story of mine appears? bookshop.org/p/books/rale...

This is good news. I am working to secure a deal on offering our own Daily Zig-branded discount cellular telephone plan that will be slightly cheaper than the one offered by our competition, the Smartless podcast.

Curious about what more they have but also why they chose to spend what could not have been an insignificant expense punctuating their sign with a period.

These things are so fraught. I also want to show him Cloud Atlas but at this stage of pre-language development, I don’t want to risk him speaking his first words in the yibberin’ true-true of 106 winters after The Fall.

My heart skips a beat whenever my wife is scrolling through our iTunes library and she pauses for a split second on this film, which I purchased in Dolby Vision 4K for $5.

I would like to read Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories: The Bad Batch—Rogue Agents issue #1, but the “title” line on my local comic book store’s pull list form only allows 743 characters.
