I randomly decided to fully commit and talk like Cobra Commander for the last half hour and now my throat and stomach hurts. This is what its like to suffer for your art.

The fact that I’ve seen more Washingtonians willingly pull out their paddle boards instead of umbrellas during the floods is a true testament of PNW folks fully committing to the bit.

Husband walks into the room. Me:

“I’m just trying to look at a moose and figure out what part of it is considered the knuckle and why people think it looks like nuts.”

As I finished taking this photo, two teenage girls told me that our decorations are their favorite around the neighborhood and that they look forward to trick or treating at our house every year. I am tired. But it was worth the effort. Halloween always is.

So you want me to download an app just so I can turn on a fan, scan a QR code just to read a menu but there’s no way to opt out of AI? This is hell. This is not the future Zenon Girl of the 21st Century promised.

All of this talk about Trump and his living status has prompted me to wonder.. how did they make a Weekend at Bernie’s sequel? How did Bernie’s body stay fresh enough for another round of tropical antics? Was Andrew McCarthy a necromancer?

Being hunted by a bird sized wasp. Yesterday it banged on the window trying to find a way to breach the perimeter. Today I’m outside in its domain. I have accidentally locked myself on the patio. No way out. Cannot climb fence. Knees are weak. Wasp is stronger. God speed.

Every so often when I’m trying to sleep I can hear a faint hum outside. It sounds like a Nokia brick vibrating on a table. I like to imagine I’m being haunted by a ghost wearing jnco jeans and a ball chain necklace with frosted tips.

I’ve crossed oceans of time for Naked Gun merchandise. This is my time baby.

Nothing quite triggers my lizard brain into anger like the inability to turn off motion smoothing on a movie or tv show.

Just rented the criterion edition of Sorcerer at Scarecrow Video in Seattle.. How do I bill the ghost of William Friedkin for the ulcer this movie gave me?

The Bay is a frightening eco horror film because it made me believe that if I go to a quaint coastal town and want to enjoy a simple lobster roll and craft fair, isopods will take over my body.

Hot Rat Summer. Cal Anderson Park, Seattle.

My neighbors finally got to see me run. I wasn’t exercising, I was being chased by a yellow jacket. You see what going outside gets you? It’s hot and I’m being chased by bugs. 10/10 would not recommend.

When I visit Chicago in September I plan on visiting The Green Mile, which was one of John Cusack’s local suggestions at the High Fidelity Q&A tonight in Tacoma.

I showed my friend a Chicago citizen post that read “MAN HOLDING RAT CHASING PEOPLE” and she immediately said “I really think you’re going to like Chicago when we visit”

I can’t believe people are going to believe the man with a parasitic worm in his brain that also left a dead bear in Central Park when he says that autistic people are the problem.

Maybe I’ve been spoiled so much by spending time with actual creators, authors and artists but AI just seems like the most pathetic attempt of replicating human creativity ever.
