look, i did not sign up to give eulogies all week so if cool people could stop dying that would be great. and what can i even say about tim curry? what an icon. i’ll be throwing in some of his movies this week. my favourite is probably Clue, but there are so many to choose from. what’s yours?

i became a dolly parton fan back when i was young. i have no idea why, but 9 to 5 was one of my fave movies as a kid and i loved her music. the world is a little darker without her. she was such a delight and an inspiration.

hypermobility: walking down a sidewalk after a long day at comic-con, telling someone how you *almost* just rolled your ankle and fell, only to - mid-telling - roll your *other* ankle & completely eat shit on the sidewalk amidst a crowd of con-goers.

tfw you’re soulfully meowing the OG legend of zelda theme in the garage elevator because the acoustics are great with just the right level of echo/reverb and the doors open to let you out mid-meow in front of your bewildered new neighbours.

last time i got sick, the james told me the reason i cough more at night is because cortisol levels drop in the evening? idk, but he’s had the remainder of a cough from a cold *he* had earlier this month so now whenever he starts coughing at night i say, “oh noooo, your cortisols!”

if your site pops up a modal when i arrive and the modal either has a close x the same colour as the background (or close to it) OR it doesn’t even show up right away but fades in after some number of seconds, there is a special place in hell for you.

I’ve gotten two ads for some kind of photo festival Flickr is doing. I’m going to admit I didn’t really dig into what it is because my immediate thought was that it would have seemed cool like 20 years ago but I am not excited about it in 2026. Should I be using Flickr still/again?

sometimes i think about how kermit the frog’s ruff is canonically a piece of fashion he wears - the *only* piece of fashion he wears - and not part of his frog body and that he chose to have a green collar and he is also green.

People, it’s 2026. Stop disabling close captions/live captions in your meetings. (Or make sure the capability is enabled!) You might not need them but your meeting attendees might.

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer. In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

Just drove by the senior living place near my house and all the seniors were lining the sides of the street and on the corners, all of them waving and holding “No Kings” signs. They were getting lots of love from drivers and passersby.
