Instructional technologist. Other topics I care about: politics (on your left), books (crime, SF, horror, lit), TV, wrestling (AEW, CMLL, fuck WWE), tech, probably other stuff. 3 cats, 1 dog. Chihuahua is smaller than any of the cats. Also, fuck ICE
Alternatively, I can send you a bag of my dog's poo, which compresses the same ideas into a much smaller package.
From today's NYT forum with the Young Fascists of America. It would have been great if the Times reporter had taken a beat to basically challenge this. Like, if she's said, "the flying saucers are an issue," it would have been just as nonsensical, but the reporter would probably have said something.
Waking up to the news of Sam Neill dying isn't nearly as awesome as waking up to the news of Lindsey Graham. In the Mouth of Madness remains one of my top five John Carpenter films, and Neill is a huge reason why it worked.
Goodreads is a constant reminder that some people are genuinely incapable of reading books and also love to brag about it.
This is an actual comment someone left on a Youtube video regarding Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza.
Waiting to hear about an American Airlines flight turning around because someone put a Rebecca Yarros book in the back pocket of a seat.
Only one trending topic (air conditioning) is something good. Need to get more AEW content back into the top 5.
If an account follows 90K people, posts multiple times an hour, never engages with anyone, and literally posts ads under each post, why the fuck is anyone reskeeting shit from it (no matter how much they're on "our" side, as if AI-generated bullshit has a side)? Use your block button, people.
Gee, I wonder if this NYT Book Review piece will be good or an utter piece of shit.
Sometimes, the one kid is isolated because all the other kids at the party are mean. And sometimes, the one kid is isolated because he's a fascist and a bigot and has literally no redeeming social skills and should never be allowed at parties.
This post by "The leading source for influencer, streamer, gaming, and viral content" is what people call "an obvious bald-faced lie." Imagine posting and shitting on a ten-year-old kid as a way to get some weird sort of cred. I'd quote-skeet, but obviously blocked this motherfucker.
Speaking of AI, love watching this idiot getting trolled for using AI for a basic search, and then super-downvoted when he tries to defend it.
Looking at three straight days in the 90s, and let me tell you, I am not looking forward to walking in this weather.
One of my favorite things is seeing monster heels being adorable and out-of-character outside the ring.
Yes, I'm sure that businesses that don't even give their name and cold-text me are completely legit and trustworthy.
Twenty-seven years since I first fell out of love with wrestling (back in love with it, but not with the organization he was in).
Saw this sign when I went to pick up books yesterday, and now I know that our library offers free bagels on Saturdays (just not yesterday).
So, yeah, watch out if you use Apotheke candles. They kind of fucking explode. (They have a recall for an entire different candle exploding, but this is their charcoal candle, which also apparently is dangerous AF.)
