Ghost Town Alive! at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, CA opened on Friday for the summer. Immersive interactive theatre in a fully realized old western town. Dozens of actors. Hijinks. And a hoedown! I continue to encourage everyone to make the pilgrimage. $70 for 6+ hours of pure joy.
Fifteen years ago, on May 21, 2011, I attended Sleep No More New York City for the very first time.
The annual AAPI market at Smorgasburg is one of my favorite things about living in Los Angeles. Today we had Cambodian smash burgers, spam musubi, savory hotteok, and butter mochi tarts! aapila.org/events/aapi-la-mar...
I liked Hawaiian Airlines’ solution for this on inter-island flights, which are around 45 minutes long. You get a choice of a small, sealed water in a cup or small, sealed POG in a cup. No carts needed.
You got a fast cart / I want a ticket to anywhere / Maybe we can make a deal / Maybe together we can get somewhere
This Cholula branded chili crisp is actually…. Pretty good? Crunchy. A bit of heat. Good amount of umami. Not quite top ten for me as I find it a bit one note on the finish. But still pretty good.

Timeline cleanse: here's a photo of my dog being the goodest boy because he sees me refilling his treat container
Delivery drivers often take a blurry, low res, out-of-focus photo of a successful delivery. These images frequently capture our dog, Miles, barking at the intruder and generally looking derpy. My husband Dan has taken to calling this photo "Floof of Delivery."
🎉 Happy birthday, @noproscenium.com! Twelve years and still going strong!
I was recently gifted a box of small batch dried fruit from Taiwan from Yun Hai in Brooklyn. How good could it possibly be, I thought. It's just fruit. I was wrong. They're freaking amazing. Especially the Irwin mango and Golden Diamond pineapple. yunhai.shop/collections/yun-h...

Marvel’s Deadpool VR launched yesterday. As my friend Noah says, games are never finished, they merely escape containment. It’s been an honor to work on this title with an iconic character and our amazing team at Twisted Pixel Games.
Well, well, well. The Loud Environment alert went off on my Apple Watch while watching Make Some Noise tonight.
