I know things about things. I love movies, video games and soup. Harlan Ellison was pretty sure I stole his wallet.
Been thinking about that common wisdom that you tend to get more conservative as you get older, and I think that it’s wrong. I think you can draw that conclusion from a chart like this one from Pew research, but to do so you must operate under the assumption that it has and always shall be thus.
Maybe he’s talking about…Afghanistan? Which was so covert that it got fucking shouted out in a god damn Rambo movie?
It’s N95 weather for walking dogs today. Short walks only, too hot and smoky for the pups.
It might be hard to tell in the camera, but the second picture is of the sky over red bank, NJ, totally gray and overcast. However the weather app remains correct, the atmospheric conditions do not currently support clouds. That’s all Canada, baby. Being outside is super dangerous today.
Got this text and maybe it’s a real org, I don’t know. But I didn’t knowingly opt in to receiving this, so the only thing I can do is treat it as threat. It’s been fucking YEARS since I sent some fucking asshole a few bucks with act blue and they’re STILL selling my phone number to fucking scams.
You know how sometimes a band will change the words of their big song to reflect the name of your town or landmark? Well, I don’t know if you can read the street sign in this picture, but this is literally where Yellowcard is playing tomorrow night. The crowd is going to lose their god damn minds.
Friends, it was a child’s XL that hasn’t fit him for YEARS, but it fit me perfectly.

Saw my reflection at Dunks this morning and realized I’m in Kim Possible cosplay all day.
This scene of the guy slowly sinking into the lava like it’s a liquid and not a solid has been BURNED into my brain for thirty years. It’s an incredible horror movie scene trapped in a bizarre disaster movie.
The dog I’m staying with this week is a fairly recent rescue and she’s afraid of all humans except her family and me, and she’s very smart and observant. She figured out that when I put on my shoes, she gets to go out, and this morning while I was getting ready, she sent me a very subtle clue.
Coming soon, from the producers of “let’s send our troops to Minnesota in the winter”, it’s “let’s send our troops to New York in the summer” Like, there’s high tech clothing these days to keep you alive in the cold. But carrying 30 pounds of gear and wearing black in NYC in the summer is deadly.
It feels like a personal attack that these aren’t simply called Fruit Punchkins
There’s some dumb headline about Andy Serkis today, and you need to remember that shortly after he filmed his stuff for ANDOR, he and a handful of other actors you might have previously respected shit themselves to death in a dennys* * took a bunch of angel studios money
Here’s the gif of maybe the Sam Raimiest thing ever filmed in The Quick and the Dead (1995), a bunch of dolly zooms in different directions, some where the camera also rotates, tilting the horizon, it’s absolutely incredible. Please read the alt text, I worked hard on it!
share a GIF from a western you love This shot, my favorite from The Quick and the Dead, is only the second Sam Raimiest shot in the movie. Later there’s a scene with quick cuts between several different dolly zooms, where the camera also rotates so the horizon skews, it’s fucking wild.
Like getting stuck in quicksand, I always assumed that holding onto my butts would be a more frequent thing in life.
Stargate has a whole main plot line spanning multiple seasons about an enemy that the friendly aliens can’t beat because their culture is too technologically advanced to imagine using a tiny amount of explosive chemicals to propel a tiny amount of metal at incredible speeds.
Moments before I took this photo the little guy (maybe the largest frenchie I’ve seen) just walked under the golden retriever’s belly like he was trying to steal a truckload of TV/VCR combo units.
youraislopbores.me is perfect, the light we need in the darkness. Look at what some glorious human artist did in response to my prompt
You might actually heat your home with natural gas even if you’ve got electric heat. In New Jersey almost half of our electrical power comes from burning natural gas. Things are about to get pretty rough for your energy bills.
Everyone whose small businesses collapsed in the last year due to tariffs is the Anakin/Padme meme right now
I just told this pup, okay let’s go Legolas, and he understood what I meant.
This is fascinating, and it’s pretty sure I’m a queer leftist screenwriter Star Trek fan, which except for the job is remarkably accurate. (Unrelated, if you want me to write for your Star Trek show, I’ll fucken do it, and shitty right wing trek fans will be SO ANGRY about what I turn in.)
