I’m watching Futurama, the episode with the chronoton time skips and the Globetrotters.

I can actually hear @crunkerton.bsky.social quoting along to this episode in my head.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Last night I noodled at a piece I think I started… At least in 2024, maybe 23– and had shelved for a while. Love my kids but they sure make finding time for art difficult. Anyway, the horrors persist but my soul feels a little better for having done some artwork.

Hornet deserves a better driver than me. But I’m really liking Silksong so far.

Today is a day worth repeating that for the next (god willing only) three and a half years, any post from me about an amusement or distraction comes with an implicit asterisk to the effect of “everything is a shit show, but I’m coping by occupying myself with this frivolity at the moment.”
