Steamed Hams full transcript Well, Seymour, I made it- despite your directions. Ah. Superintendent Chalmers. Welcome. - I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon. - Yeah. Oh, egads! My roast is ruined. But what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking? Delightfully devilish, Seymour. Ah- Skinner with his crazy explanations The superintendent's gonna need his medication When he hears Skinner's lame exaggerations There'll be trouble in town tonight Seymour! Superintendent, I was just- uh, just stretching my calves on the windowsill. Isometric exercise. Care to join me? Why is there smoke coming out of your oven, Seymour? Uh- Oh. That isn't smoke. It's steam. Steam from the steamed clams we're having. Mmm. Steamed clams. Whew. Superintendent, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering hamburgers. I thought we were having steamed clams. D'oh, no. I said steamed hams. That's what I call hamburgers. You call hamburgers steamed hams? Yes. It's a regional dialect. - Uh-huh. Uh, what region? - Uh, upstate New York. Really. Well, I'm from Utica, and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "steamed hams. " Oh, not in Utica. No. It's an Albany expression. I see. You know, these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty Burger. Oh, no. Patented Skinner burgers. Old family recipe. - For steamed hams. - Yes. Yes. And you call them steamed hams despite the fact that they are obviously grilled. Ye- You know, the- One thing I should- - Excuse me for one second. - Of course. Well, that was wonderful. A good time was had by all. I'm pooped. Yes. I should be- Good Lord! What is happening in there? - Aurora borealis. - Uh- Aurora borealis at this time of year at this time of day in this part of the country localized entirely within your kitchen? - Yes. - May I see it? No. Seymour. ! The house is on fire. ! No, Mother. It's just the northern lights. Well, Seymour, you are an odd fellow but I must say you steam a good ham.
Today is officially the 30th anniversary of Steamed Hams. On April 14, 1996, "22 Short Films About Springfield" aired for the first time!
I was in a store on my birthday yesterday and they had the extended version of Virtual Insanity playing. It made me really happy...love that bridge
@nehapolitan.bsky.social knows what’s up - hire her!!
The podcast I edit & write music for partnered with a local Fleet Feet running store to document their marathon/ half marathon training group.
It’s such a wonderful example of the running community that I found a few years ago 🫶👟

I checked my spam email account today for companies that ask for me email when I buy something or whatever, and the amount of emails that have the subject line THIS SALE IS NOT A JOKE is comical.
I finally made baked tofu that tastes good AMA
Ah yes it's lawnmower and leaf blower season, aka blast drum and bass music with noise cancelling cancelling headphones on to try to drown out the noise.
All of those little social media trends that are "this is who you're asking to do X" are really fun and I genuinely enjoy them, but I can't help but feel nauseas knowing that those photos are almost definitely being used to train some kind of gen AI...
Wow, I must be so much fun at parties...
Yes 100%! Yeah I use my watch for tracking sleep, it has a silent alarm feature built in which I dig.
Same here with my phone not being the beginning and end of my day. It's very liberating, even within a day or so of doing this I felt a lot more focused than I did before.
As a PA voter, in hindsight, I'm beyond upset that my choices were Fetterman or Dr. Oz.
This week I started keeping my phone in another room when going to sleep for the night. It's made a huge difference and I highly recommend it. Better focus, way better sleep.
Support Kyle Fraser’s Recovery after Two Strokes
Some of you may know I’ve been dealing with a personal matter over the last week. Most of you do not. I consider myself a very private person but I need to ask for help at this time. Last week, my partner and best friend, Kyle Fraser, suffered from two strokes in a single day. There is a very long and expensive road ahead, and our friends have been gracious enough to help organize a GoFundMe for anyone who wishes to offer their support. On it, we have written up more detail on his condition for anyone curious. Even a repost or share helps. The link to that is in my bio, my story, highlights - pretty much anywhere. Thank you for your thoughts and support at this time. Apologies in advance if I take some time to reply, I’m taking it one day at a time.
For those who don’t know him, Kyle is probably the most compassionate person I’ve ever met. He is as gentle and brilliant as much as he is strong and funny. He loves his two cats Poly and Moog, and adopted them with the explicit intention of ‘which cats are you having a hard time adopting?’ Though he can be reserved and introverted, Kyle has a fierce passion for his career and will always offer a helping hand to anyone in need, often taking calls to mentor professionals beginning their career. I’ve become a better person through knowing and loving him.

I finished reading Project Hail Mary last night. Two thoughts:
1. Very compelling book, it's excellent.
2. I'm very happy I didn't watch any of the trailers before finishing the book...lotta spoilers
Follow up: I think it's hilarious that everyone calls it "X, formerly known as Twitter" and not just "X"
Funny with X fka Twitter embeds on websites is I always think the X is to close the embed, and then I realize it's the logo.
Congratulations!!!!!!!
YO that high G at the beginning of the top track
THIS SLAPS LISTEN TO IT
Hard cut to Spring
I got free admission to The Met in NYC today because my local library has a free pass that you can borrow for the day if you're a member.
Support your local library.
In my defense: I did fully intend to go in 2020, until that.....thing....happened.
I'm not much for tradition, but I do have one: "Maybe I'll get out to GDC next year..."
No really, maybe it'll be next year...I mean it this time...
