Tis the season for work luncheons and functions and there are definitely a few individuals for whom I’d opt to chew on sandpaper rather than break bread with them.

As a 45 year-old dad-dude, I don’t get as much new music as I once did, but this came across my radar last week, and if the 16 year-old skateboarding “OldAndSlow” version of me saw this, it might’ve broken my brain and heart.

From last Friday, so all you lunalogists can chill with the critique about the phase of the moon.

Yo , this weather has the geese jacked-up. I’ve seen em flying south, then turn and head back north repeatedly this morning.

I can’t wait until tech gets to the point of producing simulacra of famous dead people, because I’d pay a certain amount of money to punch Ronald Reagan in his eye.

The world of Classical music celebrates the birth of Ludwig van Beethoven today. My Dad would bake a cake (or some years my Mother, I’m told) for Ludwig and bring it in to his high school English class to celebrate.

As a Magic: The Gathering player from ‘94 (4 digit DCI, baby) I have always been way (way) too cool to play Pokémon.
And then last night, I sat with the Boy and we learned how to play @jp773.bsky.social

Small-scale, fiercely independent journalism rarely gets recognition when awards are handed out, but it's vital in our communities—especially this year. So I made an award and am thrilled to announce @unraveledpress.com and @lataco.bsky.social as the inaugural winners. dansinker.com/posts/2025-1...

Rob Reiner was legit. We all could spend the next month watching our favorite films and tv shows he helped create, but have you listened to his gripping podcast on who killed JFK? More quality output by the Legend.

Dang, I’m layered, with a heated hoodie and a face mask, and my eyes are watering in the face of the cold, as a temperature related headache attacks my temples.

Good morning, @rogersparkman.bsky.social. Do you still use “100 Bullets” as a part of the curriculum? Are there any other graphic works to which you devote classroom time?
Funny how 20 years ago I might’ve skimmed the intro, and now I’ll marvel at the “small world”, because I recognize your name.

Dear Wizards of the Coast, all I’m asking for Creasemas is an errata to include anything titled “grotto” to fall into the “cave” subtype.
Thank you and may you savor your figgy puddings.
