Thanks for the input, y'all! Kids liked it a lot, wife tolerated it, I thought it was solid (tho not a patch on the originals). Heck, might even be able to use it to get the kids to try the originals!

Hey, sci-fi and fantasy folks, if you happen to know folks who are involved with various estates in the field, do tip them a hat about the Anthropic settlement. Agencies do not get $ out of the deal and may not remember to talk to estate clients. My agent was worrying about estates not being alerted

You know, I miss my mom as much as I miss my dad, but I have zero modern pics of my mom because being a woman of her generation is saying ‘no no my hair!’ every time someone takes their phone out until one day you’re dead and no one remembers what you look like. Ladies, your hair is FINE

Today's discussion prompted me to finally knock "write a review of the MicroFreak" off my to-do list. Here it is:

Troopers just violently attacked protesters, tackled several, several arrests, shoving activists and press with batons.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Truly the end of an era. Dr. Demento is low-key one of my biggest musical influences. His show introduced me to such a wild variety of musical styles at a young age, it set me on the right path forever more!

October 11, 2025 is a milestone in comedy history. Not only is it the 50th anniversary of the 1st SNL, today is also the final new Dr. Demento show. After 55 years, Barret Hansen is hanging up his top hat. Please go to drdemento.com to hear his all time demented top 40 countdown special.

machetes are a specific shape where they're used, often have design features for common local problems. bahamanian sugar cane knives are hooked. jamaican cutlasses are countercurved & aerodynamic for thick woody bush. american machetes have a tactical saw back to fend off your dad calling you gay

Think we'll watch the 2013 Evil Dead for family movie night. You have ~20 minutes to convince me this is a bad idea (or confirm that it's a good idea).

When, not if, this bursts, we MUST take the opportunity to dethrone EVERY LAST ONE of these tech dipshits and jail them on fraud/RICO charges. The fate of civilization depends on it.

“Concerns over an AI bubble bursting have grown lately, with analysts recently finding that it’s 17 times the size of the dotcom-era bubble and four times bigger than the 2008 financial crisis.”

Hang onto your butts. This “correction” is gonna hurt.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.
