American politics are so dogshit that you could post the same 3 words, “Murder is bad”— and depending on the day, a bunch of people with the word “Christian” in their bio will scream at you.

Apparently the 6th commandment can be temporarily disabled by the people they vote for.

One of the first songs I ever purchased off of iTunes was Joe Jackson’s “One More Time” (1979). All because of this specific Taco Bell commercial: youtu.be/ZaRsdUyV3nQ?...

Santa got me one Gatorade™️ for each time I mentioned Israel at a family gathering. 💪

I keep thinking about that scene at the end of Pillion (2025).

I watched the movie with my spouse, and we both had completely different interpretations of that look on Alexander Skarsgård's face.

What a time to work in IT. There’s a colossal outage every month now— sometimes every week.

This is what happens when you lay off & outsource all your programmers, assholes.

Just heard somebody pronounce “Vangelis” like the second half of “Los Angeles” and it’s got me grinning

Young people have to understand that when Fun. dropped “Some Nights” back in February 2012, it was like that “time traveler steps on a butterfly” meme— only in this case the time traveler put ecstasy in the water supply.

Watching Z (1969) again just to remember what being super pissed off feels like

Finally got my Red Hat VM going in Hyper-V and got the funny message at the start of the tutorial level.

For the first time since Super Tuesday 2020 I can finally go listen to Chapo Trap House again.

People who download movies: “You can find ANYTHING if you know where to look 😉”

People who download software: “I am once again cancelling my main debit card”

My love language is candy that’s pretending to be health food.

After a week of dreadful, non-stop work, hurrying to get ahead of weather, coyotes, and the waning patience of our neighbors— the chicken shed is complete.

Equipped with both solar and AC power, the chickens will (hopefully) live comfortably and lay us many eggs.

I wish movie tie-in deals at chain restaurants were still common and shameless. Mostly because the Domino’s ™ $18 “One Pizza After Another” deal would be so funny.

In my life, I’ve owned 6 cats. Never actually had one die when I was around, until today. He was born maybe two weeks ago, barely older than a paycheck. We buried him in a towel so he could stay warm.

You can tell who the designated laundry person is for any given home by looking for the one person who doesn’t throw all their shit into the hamper inside-out.

Just found a YouTuber who figured out a way to simulate 1980’s analogue video effects using Blender’s built-in compositing tools. For reasons related to ✨ the properties of physics ✨ that’s like building a flying car.

The description of their latest vid? They’re rapidly going broke. Hate it here.

Today’s kids will never know the sheer horror of tanking the whole 5 hour Apocalypse Now workprint .avi, just to be met with Apocalypse Pooh.

Both can now be found on YouTube with no p2p required.

Just dragged 4 family members to the Dolby Cinema near my house to see Superman. None of these folks have experienced a dual laser projection before, or 128 channel sound. Never-mind a fucking 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio.

That’s my biggest kick. Forcing people into really high fidelity theaters.

Listening to “It’s Been a While” by Staind when you’re finally old enough to have actual regrets.
June 4, 2025 at 5:07 AM
Lots of 2000-aughts songs I shat on as a teenager are getting frequent listens now that I’m in my 30’s.

For some reason, It’s Been a While by Staind really works for me now. Also just had a big emotional moment listening to My Immortal in bed. At least I still loathe Your Body is a Wonderland.

It’s that kind of day where every news headline should read “right wing party moves bill forward that will destroy millions of lives”. Instead though— instead I get this—

I just replaced a snapped angle mount toilet handle.

That’s the single easiest home repair thing I’ve ever experienced. Is this what Boomers feel like all the time?

That was on the same level of difficulty as putting on shoes. People who aren’t handy should try this to help build confidence. 🏠 🚽
