When Jesus asked the question “Who are my brothers and sisters and mother?”, while his actual family was standing outside asking for him, he wasn’t casting shade on his mom and siblings. He was setting his audience up for something many would have found shocking. /1
Tucker Carlson takes (some) responsibility for getting Trump elected?
Dear sweet mother of mystery, he’s running for POTUS in 28 isn’t he?
The book I’m reading, a non-fiction memoir, continues to use euphemisms alluding to a father sleeping with the babysitter.
Methinks the author has some personal things they need to work out
I wish I could talk about what’s making me so happy today. If there’s anything I’ve learned in life it’s, if you’re getting a raw deal, be patient. The universe has a way of straightening out inconveniences
I want a Domino movie with Zazie Beetz
From the Epistle of the Apostle Ru Paul 6:9
I sometimes think about how I, an innocent little Catholic school-boy, somehow didn’t know my senior quote was from Aleister Crowley
Definitely Zelda. At *least* her.
Somehow, the day this app isn’t working properly is when I get the most engagement on something I’ve posted. Did *I* break something?
Pete Hegseth quoted Pulp Fiction during a religious service in the Pentagon.
The line from PF is a made up Bible passage. You know the one.
Parody is dead. Read the first sentence again and ask how it’s not an Onion headline

If this is a simulation, the person playing as me is an asshole
Sometimes I think back to when I worked retail and one of the people I worked with and I were bored, so we bought a fart machine at a toy store.
One of us would stick the speaker in our pockets and the other had the remote.
I kinda miss those days
President, Extremely Normal Brain-Wise: Pope Weak on Crime, Also I’m Dr. Jesus Christ
A+ headline.

“How do you get Rocky to Philly?!?”
“Astrophage propulsion!”
I want to wake up and realize the last 25 years were a fever dream
I don’t know what form of existentialist thought I am: I don’t think we have inherent purpose. I also think people don’t *have* to have a purpose and can still lead meaningful lives, contributing to society in a pro-social way. All I know is that nothing makes sense and my purpose is to fall apart
My blog has always been at Medium.

Today has been a really rough day. Really hoping my medicine kicks in soon
Well I guess I don’t know how to get “real” followers on this platform

I just saw somewhere something calling Joy Division's "Ceremony" a cover of a New Order song so officially the internet is fired and can come back when responsible humans are in charge
So all the comparisons to the Son of God wasn’t enough for MAGA. They had to see a picture to get offended.
I guess if Project 2025 had been a picture book we’d have the first woman POTUS right now.

Re-reading Artemis and realizing it’s a smuggler who’s basically trashing the equipment of one businessman so another can profit off the losses of the first guy.
There are plenty of themes in Andy Weir’s work that are political, but I’m seeing Ayn Rand peek out between the science sometimes

I want to see Meg Ryan’s reaction to seeing her son berated by Homelander.
Vance warns they won’t follow the cease fire with Iran if THEY don’t follow the agreement. Meanwhile a certain American-affiliated nation continues attacks on Lebanon.
Sigh.
I love that, if you can’t experience new media as soon as it’s released, you have to avoid the internet until you can. The new episodes of the Boys came out today and it was ruined for me by visible comments on a post the show put out.
Great anniversary date! I remember when you posted the screenshot of your TBR books and seeing PHM! So glad you finally got to see it :)
