A year ago, doctors told me I had neuroendocrine cancer of the pancreas. I’d probably been living with it for a decade. I will likely never be cured. But after a year of surgeries, radiation and monthly shots with a giant needle, I’m not going anywhere anytime soon. defector.com/my-life-with...

I’m in Los Angeles and you better believe I’m checking out Fish Town Beauty Supply. I wonder if this store’s been gentrified.

I have ARFID and would probably vomit all over if I covered this. Might be a good reason to go cover it. What a story that’d be!

Guy down the shore sold me a Thin Green Line flag
Ok so it’s an American flag but it’s maroon and white. And there’s one green stripe in the center like a blue cop Thin Blue Line flag. And in the corner over the stars is the Phillie Phanatic’s head and it says 1980 World Champs. And I’m holding it in the middle of the room. Peep the powder blue shorts with the pink Eric Emmanuel EE logo. I think he started making them with the good material again?? These new ones are really good. Maybe they’re just not washed a million times like my other ones.

I’m working on a short narrative game where you’re an aquarium salesman when Zach walks in the door, and you have to see how much you can get him to spend.

I like that they let a groundhog order at Jim’s for this Little Golden Book
Illustration (nicely drawn! good perspective! accurate!) of what it would look like if a groundhog ordered at Jim’s With this text What? Don't tell me you've never had a cheesesteak. You've been missing out! It's one thing Philly is famous for, especially here on South Street. Order one with onions and "whiz" - whiz is the cheese in the cheesesteak. Yum!

Philadelphia should reopen the Norman Rockwell Museum
That Norman Rockwell freedom of speech meme. I will never use this meme again and I have never used it before. I swear. But finally it fits a joke I want to make.

Honestly, baseball is a child’s sport, when you think about. A little game, a little game for the children. It would be embarrassing to be good at it as an adult, to win at baseball.

“The fight began over Mark Sanchez being upset that the 69-year-old man parked his work box truck at a loading dock to collect used cooking oil, the court documents state.” www.indystar.com/story/news/c...
A Simpsons meme of Willie going "my retirement grease! No! ya thievin' grease bandits!" But Mark Sanchez's head is pasted over Willie's head. Homer is helping Bart escape with the retirement grease through the HVAC system.

My muted words list is probably too expansive (for instance, I muted “left” and “right”) but it really works. Ryan’s post is the first I’ve heard of recent forum drama. This is a shame, because Ryan’s a good poster and I’ve worked with his wife but now I need to block him into oblivion.
