SWIFT: Trav, honey?
KELCE: (looks up from first edition Krazsnahorkai in original Hungarian) (pauses rare Steve Reich LP, Japanese pressing) Yes?
SWIFT: What rhymes with "thighs"?
KELCE: Hmm. "Belies," perhaps?
SWIFT: (under her breath) Oh for fuck's sake

Recently took one because I figured it’d be better than some other guy messing things up and now I’m like “damn, now I have to keep myself from messing things up!”

Watching antisocial driver behavior in the school drop-off line makes it really clear that the pandemic destroyed whatever few shreds remained of the social compact, just pathological selfishness on display every day

Ramza Beoulve. He level up. He changes class. But most importantly, he scream at own ass.

Very poorly photoshopped head of Ramza Beoulve (protagonist from Final Fantasy Tactics) on top of the screaming opossum from the scream at own ass meme.

"A rave of a movie that acts as its own hallucinogen, best experienced on a huge screen with a state-of-the art sound system. If they’d played it again right after I saw it for the first time, I would have gladly stayed in my seat." My **** review of TRON: Ares. www.rogerebert.com/reviews/tron...

TRON: Ares movie review & film summary (2025) | Roger Ebert

“TRON: Ares” is spectacularly designed, swiftly paced, thoughtfully written, and directed within an inch of its neon-hued life.

I am bad at photographing soup but pretty decent at making soup. Tonight: chickpea noodle soup (onions, garlic carrots, mushrooms, chickpeas, penne, miso broth)

The grand unified “Everyone is Twelve” theory is a legit contribution to contemporary thought and critique. We really are ruled by evil adult children!

One of the things that doesn't come out in the soundbites but does in the full speech is Hegseth's repeated, explicit emphasis on viewing problems from the perspective of an E-6 or O-3, wholly unaware (as a bad O-4) that the job of the 0-7s to O-10s in front of him is quite different.

One of the challenges in trying to write something about Hegseth's speech at The Quantico Disgrace is you have to listen to the whole speech but it is very difficult to listen so much and not have the style of speech bleed into your writing and you *really* don't want to write like Hegseth talks.

The intersection of the Beastie Boys’ “B-Boy Bouillabaisse” and They Might Be Giants’ “Fingertips”. That’s where you’ll find me.

Sometimes you gotta go back to the classics (hitting keys too quickly in Nethack and accidentally putting your whole inventory — including a wand of cancellation — into your bag of holding. Boom.)

I think American liberals would be served well to root American liberal liberation etc in the broader history and context of internationalism. It does not diminish America, if anything, it helps make her look better. She was never a singular protagonist of history.
