The living embodiment of Cabot Sharp Cheddar and a mid-shelf Malbec. Lacks sophistication; adequate.

My ex saw GnR last night and is now convinced that Duff McKagan looks "just like" her dog, and friends...she is not wrong.

Duff McKagan from Guns n Roses. He is a late middle aged white man sharp features, a well defined chin, and dark blonde feathery hair.

A mixed breed rescue mutt. She is just under 10 lbs with a slim frame, a fawn coat, a long nose, and whispy hair protruding from her ears.

Unfinished Painting by Keith Haring. I've got a large print hanging over my bed. Says so much about the artist's personal tragedy and the fragility of life in general, especially for the disenfranchised. For me, it's a gut-wrenching representation of memento mori.

Unfinished Painting by the artist Keith Haring. The upper left 25% of the work is a playful design featuring dancing figures, reminiscent of Haring's other works, in shades of purple and black. Purple ink drips down from the edges of the finished portion, as if the artist was interrupted, and the rest of the canvas is blank.

Post a poster you used to have on your wall Yeah, I was a very sheltered kid... 🤦‍♂️

A Stryper poster circa the To Hell With the Devil era. The background is black. At the top of the poster is the word "STRYPER" in yellow and black striped text. Below that is "ISAIAH 53:5" in yellow text. Below the text is four men who should know better clad in an array of yellow and black leather and spandex. They all have long Aqua Net-sculpted hair and teased bangs that rise a good 6-8" from their foreheads, and they are glaring at the viewer with very serious demeanor.

Was digging through some old papers and found this in a pile of post-it notes. A note that young Adam wrote to himself in the mid-90's. Took me a few minutes to figure out what it was and then felt ashamed for not immediately remembering the hours of hard work represented here. 🤦‍♂️🤣 #IYKYK #SNES

A note written in blue ink on a yellow Post It. There are four lines of text.
LINE 1: "GWAR"
LINE 2: "HUH HAH YAH"
LINE 3: "WOA HAH HAH"
LINE 4: "YAH HEH"

I've been a bit obsessed with the big swings Pepperidge Farm has taken with their cookie offerings the last few years. There's been some hits and misses (Chai Tea Latte, you were perfectly executed, but no one ever asked for you in a cookie. Lemon Milano, I need you in my life forever). HUGE hit:

A box of limited edition "MAGGIE'S Apple Pie" cookies from Pepperidge Farm. A picture of the cookie on the package resembles an apple pie. It has a shortbread base and apple filling with a lattice top making the filling visible.

That said, my dog:

A very old, chunky Motorola "mobile" phone. It is brown on the face with yellowing buttons and a yellowing white exterior. The base of a large antenna is visible at the top.

A chunky little rescue dog. She is laying on her side, sleeping, on a light brown fleece blanket. She is black with white highlights on her beak and chest with a pink tummy. She is primarily chihuahua and shih tzu with medium coat and lots of floofy hair around the ears.

First heirloom tomato sandwich of the season.

A sandwich and some cheesy potato chips on a white plate. The sandwich is grilled and consists of heirloom tomatoes, colby jack cheese, american cheese, kepie, salt, pepper, and dried oregano on rosemary boule.

I got that reference.

A screen capture from a live performance from Mitch Hedberg. Mitch is shown from about the elbows up. He is wearing a dark jacket over a dark t-shirt and blue-tinted sunglasses and is holding a microphone up to his mouth as he laughs.

If you see a big bald guy walking around the World Oddities Expo in Raleigh today with a t-shirt that looks like this, feel free to say "hi". I'm not saying that'll be me, but that guy is probably pretty cool. #MST3K

Yellow text on a black background that reads "HE TRIED TO KILL ME WITH A" and a white silhouette of a forklift.

Bluesky before Claude Code / Bluesky after Claude Code.

A shirtless Jeff Goldblum as he appears early in the 1986 film The Fly.

The creature that Jeff Goldblum melds into at the end of the 1986 film The Fly. It is a grotesque man/fly hybrid with long arms and legs, a wide face, slimy skin, and huge bulging eyes.

Some of them are Davids, but most of them are Daves.

A post from Dave Hill's FB page. It is a selfie with three people: Dave Foley, Gunnar Olsen, and Dave Hill (left to right). Above the photo is the text from Dave Hill's post: "Let’s just get it over with and say Dave Foley and I are some of the Daves Gunnar Olsen knows."

Ok, bsky, I'm counting on one of you to convince me that I do not, in fact, need this Count Orlok plushie in my life.

A greyscale plush doll of Count Orlok from the film Nosferatu, sitting in a windowsill in a product promo shot. The detail is more-or-less true to life with a head and hands that are slightly disproportionately large compared to the rest of the body. The face has a menacing glare and it's fingers are outstretched, emphasizing its claw-like fingernails.

Post a Jedi...wrong answers only.

Hellraiser 0.5: Heckraiser

A screenshot from Mystery Science Theater 3000, season 3 episode 10, Fugitive Alien.

A head and shoulders shot of a baddie with a bald head and menacing blue-tinted lighting. When the episode aired, Joel riffed, "It's Heckraiser!", a reference to Hellraiser, but without the pins.

Two actual interactions I had today within 8 hours of each other. You're doing awesome, tech brahs, keep up the great work! Can't wait till you're 100% in charge of infrastructure and education. 🤦‍♂️🤬

A screenshot of a portion of a chat transcript with Amazon customer service:

AMAZON: Hi, you're in the right place for customer service support. [ITEM DESCRIPTION] Looks like this item was delivered on Friday, Feb 20. How can we help you with this?

CUSTOMER: The item isn't what I expected.

AMAZON: Good news. Your order is on its way and should arrive today Wednesday, Feb 25 by end of day. If it doesn't arrive by then, come back to find out next steps.

[NOTE: It is currently Friday, Feb 20 and the item already arrived]

Name a video game you’ve put 500 hours into (Pretty sure I have--I've played through the main storyline at least 4-5 times. Always holds up.)

"Oh dee oten doten day, Fattening up our tapeworms!"

Choopie had her first full dental yesterday. She hasn't been under since she was spayed about 8 years ago. She was definitely feeling the derps.

MOM: We have The Beatles at home! THE BEATLES WE HAVE AT HOME:

The cover of the album "The Brothers Four Sing Lennon/McCartney". Four white men dressed in very conservative 60's-era suits each sit atop a ladder against a white background, smiling at the camera.

Tried these. They taste like someone gave AI a vague description of what chocolate and mint taste like and had it generate a recipe. If La Croix had a cookie division, this would be their flagship product. They have achieved an approximation of flavor. Uncanny valley in cookie form.

A bag of "Thin & Crispy Peppermint Cocoa" cookies from Pepperidge Farm. The bag is festive red with green leafy highlights. The cookies pictured on the front are thin and dark brown with chocolate/mint chips.

Name a villain you sympathize with. I'm already a bit of grump. If I had to share a neighborhood with Filburt and Heffer, I could see myself going full Ed Bighead.

The character Ed Bighead from Rocko's Modern Life. He is basically an anthropomorphized frog who walks on two legs, dresses like a human, and has human arms. His head is...big. He is shown wearing brown pants with suspenders, a white shirt, and a black bowtie. He is entering a house from the front door with an angry look on his face.

Quote with a 10/10 album. Or 4. These are all top-to-bottom listens for me. Didn't want to over-rep Toad, but New Constellation (2013) would be on this list as well.

Last night visiting fam in MA. Looking forward to reuniting with Choop, but sad to be leaving tomorrow. 😢 1. Sis on a day trip to Newburyport 2. Exterior decor at sis' house 3 & 4. Made pizza tonight for sis/BIL/nephs. This is my love language.
