Thanks, man. But I lost $20 in less than 5 minutes. It’s why I don’t gamble, lol.

I don’t really gamble, but I rather enjoy getting stoned and wandering casino floors looking at all the machines. Especially when I’ve had… a few small beers.

Have to applaud the noise cancelling insulation in my hotel. My room is facing a loud-as-fuck part of Fremont Street and the hallway is loud, but the room is totally fine.

I wasn't really sold on the first few episodes of Peacemaker S2 because I'm just exhausted with multiverse stuff. But by the end I was all in. The penultimate episode last week is the wild one, but the finale was some nice catharsis for the characters and a rad setup for S3.

Every single joke they quote in this article is more painful and excruciating than the last. Just hack shit up and down the board. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/o...

A rightwing late-night show may have bombed – but the funding behind it is no laughing matter

Conservative donors spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to make a rightwing Stephen Colbert-style talkshow

Definitely bringing my vinyl travel bag to BFF Fest this year because my hotel is closer to the venue so I won’t have to walk terribly far to drop off purchases. Wonder if I should bring my travel scale just in case…

That final kill at the end of the first season of Reacher is one of the most satisfying things I’ve ever seen.

Major lol to this guy getting repeat work portraying an adult baby.

This is a frame grab from IMDb trivia that reads: "C. Ernst Harth, who plays The Great Child, a character dressed as a baby, would also play a similarly dressed character in Trick 'r' Treat (2007)"

Education Secretary Linda McMahon says she's leading the department's "final mission" to shut down. But @megomatz.bsky.social and I found it's more than that: Political appointees from ultraconservative groups are in power at ED now, and they hope to dismantle public schools.

Uh-oh, looks like people were going into Tron: Ares thinking it was going to be a movie and not just an on-screen ride and, whoops! Let's just get baked and look at pretty colors and listen to the rockin' tunes, y'all!

It honestly took me until the turn in episode six to decide I was in on it. I was really hesitant due to the multiverse stuff, but it was such a hilarious subversion.
