Our media is too east coast to really acknowledge this but Hoppus/DeLonge are up there with Lennon/McCartney Hall/Oates et al. One of the all time songwriting duos

its worth asking why posts like this — a purported leftist warning others not to trust elected left-wing politicians — consistently do so well on the site where racist Trump ally Elon Musk controls the algorithm that chooses what posts people see

This morning my daughter let out a bloodcurdling full volume horror movie NOOOO scream because I cracked open the peel of a banana, and she was worried I would peel the whole thing without letting her do it.

This was a very interesting problem in ARC Raiders, so much so that I wrote up an entire explanation of why the incentives are set up wrong, and how they affect each other. rystorm.com/blog/the-sys... (and how this is the case for many things in this world)

A football player says "glad you're here in the USA for football season, Junji Ito. Let me show you how to throw a perfect spiral." The football plater throws the ball. Ito is mesmerized. Spirals appear in his eyes and he sweats profusely. We zoom in on his face in an extreme closeup as the intensity of his terror increases.

I noodle sometimes with the synopsis for a novel called The Jester Race where humans are pathetic and feeble but recognized across the galaxy for their capacity to form emotional and empathic bonds with anything, even inanimate objects.

How moms go MAHA is the real question here, because if you know how they go MAHA you know how to deal with them. And it isn’t because doctors talked down to them. It’s the same reasons anyone gets into conspiracy theories: boredom, aimlessness, arrogance, prejudice

For some reason it really bothers me that Andy's incredible career as a musician is reduced to one sentence in this story. Every Time I Die spent 20 years as one of the best and most important bands in hardcore. Andy's guitar playing and writing was integral to their success.
