59. how? i'm as surprised as you are, frankly. trans, antifa, fat, migraineur. i like cats AND dogs, Egyptology (the real kind, not the BS Graham Hancock kind), Latin, listening to music, Bluey and oh, yes, eating.
just finished Come, Let's Away and i'd like to say i enjoyed it but gods DAMN that was a hard one. i'm sure the haters will still complain about it despite it being the most aggressively violent episode of SFA to date. Paul Giamatti, man. i kinda hate HIM now. not really. but Nus… what a monster.

borders and nationalities are imaginary lines we draw around ourselves for no good reason.

we're due to get rain next week and my shoulder is aching like a bastard. it's not a great party trick, but it's all i got.

i swear to fuck if i get one more rando developer with their name set to FUNYUNS MUNCHER WISHLIST ON STEAM TODAY following me, i will most likely have an aneurysm.

DON’T FOLLOW ME IF WE DON’T KNOW ONE ANOTHER ELSEWEB!!! i’m not here because i love being social. i am a misanthropic grump.

the House rushed a bill through which appears to be the one which mandates your birth certificate match your voter registration. those disenfranchised are anyone who’s changed their name for any reason, including the couchfucker, whose birth name is not JD Vance. hope it’ll die in the Senate.

Travis is going up north for a few days next week to help out at a newly opened store in the Bay Area which leaves me alone at home while he's gone.

just kidding. i'm going to be playing Pokémon Alpha Sapphire the whole time.

gave the new Silversun Pickups, Tenterhooks, a listen on our way home from Anaheim today. i'll need to sit down and give it a proper listen before i have a solid opinion, but it sounded fine? wasn't paying close enough attention. sounded like SSP though so that's a good starting point, right?

get fucked, John. you chose money over humanity. you’re no better than she is.

i won’t be the least bit surprised if he‘s in the Epstein files.

another week, another Starfleet Academy, and i'm in tears AGAIN. this is such a fantastic show.

Apple’s latest update to their programming environment, Xcode, allows for “agentic coding” to which i say congratulations, Apple, you managed to find a euphemism for slop code more gratingly annoying than “vibe coding”. well done.

if you need me, i’ll be researching PowerMac G4 prices on eBay.

got an appointment tomorrow with podiatry at Kaiser to have a toenail removed. not particularly looking forward to it but it’s clear that nail will never grow correctly otherwise. don’t wear shoes that are a size too small when you’re going to be spending several hours walking around Boston, kids.

caught up on Starfleet Academy. i'm beginning to wonder if there'll ever be an episode that doesn't make me cry.

love this show so far. Holly Hunter is obviously having a LOT of fun. she could MAYBE tone the manic pixie dream Lanthanite down a bit, but otherwise, no notes.

if this does not have an off switch, i am going tech-free. i will not have an always-on, always-listening conduit to Google in my pocket.

jesus fucking christ this “AI” bullshit needs to die, *NOW*.

and now, having done what SuperDuper's dev said to do, play counts are no longer updating in iTunes (the library is stored on the affected drive).

i'm going to have to look into alternative backup utilities if i have to do this EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. i use SuperDuper.

hope resetting ACLs fixes this.

i don't understand the need for people who didn't like SFA to loudly proclaim to people who are enjoying the show that they, personally, didn't like it.

AND…? what am i to do with this knowledge other than pity your inability to enjoy what feels very much like Lower Decks's spiritual successor?
January 19, 2026 at 9:16 PM
if you start your video with “i think there’s something wrong with me because i watched SFA and i think i liked it” i know i have no use for anything else you might say. lots of comments slagging off the show, too. blocked and moved on.

if you pause Beta Test when Caleb and Tamira at talking in front of the memorial wall, you’ll see a LOT of names, including ”Cadet Peter Preston”. Preston was Scotty’s nephew who was killed aboard the Enterprise when Khan attacked it in TWoK. this show is gonna keep making me cry, isn’t it?
January 19, 2026 at 7:08 AM
i'm a little bored with the whole "apparently you're in our target audience" video thing for small musicians on the tickettytocks there. but i AM finding good music, so i won't complain TOO much. darkwave/industrial/synthpop fans, check this.

c’mon, Iran, don’t threaten us with a good time!
January 16, 2026 at 9:02 PM
well i see why the fascists hate Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. so many non-white people! how can we envision a white supremacist future with so many brown people on screen???

i especially like Sam, and Lura Thok. and Paul Giamatti is living his best life as Nus Braka. looking forward to more!

ugh Apple is using Google's Gemini shitware to power the next iteration of Siri. or augment it? whichever it is, now more than ever i want a landline. as for the rest of the iPhone's features, give me a Palm Pilot, an iPod and the Thomas Guide to LA and Orange Counties and i'll be laughing.
