Last Summercon I attended was when it was at The Delancey (~15 years ago) but I just bought a ticket and am kind of excited.

Pete Carroll was doing a long con, Tenet-style operation from when he was our coach.

Last time I was in Denver there was a completely enclosed restaurant next to my gate that was 100% smoking section and I sat and ate buffalo wings and felt like a king.

Also I will die on the hill that MiniDiscs were the coolest media format we ever had and that they didn't proliferate for data use (except for in the beginning of the Matrix) is a travesty.

You gave your crush a mixtape; I curated a 240-minute guided sonic experience with skits and interludes on MiniDisc for my best friend that required her to also carry around a MiniDisc player. We are not the same.

Unprepared for Mary's substantial reach advantage.

The Artemis crew landing is going to be like a reverse-Harambe and things will start to get better.

I would write five insufferable screenplays and the core rules to a tabletop RPG.

Everything's fine, they're adding five more minutes to the Doomsday Clock. It's currently 11:62

Waiting for Grolier's CD-ROM encyclopedia to load.

my default inclination for the primary is to support whoever Bowser wants the least but it's nice to find out about a candidate and have it increase my impression of them versus the alternative.

They comported themselves well. They had leave-behinds that highlighted her platform on one side and some bio on the other and they mentioned her support of tenant's rights (I live in a big ~300 unit building that was thwarted from selling to condos by the tenants association dragging it out)

I think the term for that is Angel Investor.

Every messaging platform I've used since AIM has been less satisfying than the one before.

20 years in the same apartment and yesterday was the first time anyone has ever canvassed at my door. No idea if that means anything but her campaign is at least making themselves known.

I wanna love something as much as Tiger Woods loves drunk driving.

"appearing" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that diagnosis

Someone's got to keep all the Broken Social Scene and Metric bootlegs from getting sold over here.

“I’m sorry. I can’t. Don’t disbar me”

Many years ago I got into an argument with someone online who was saying that Daft Punk had more hits than Stevie Wonder (not even that they were better) and I was like “motherfucker Stevie Wonder has more hits than Daft Punk has songs” and it broke me from ever arguing online again.

They moved CCD to early Saturday morning (like 7) and my mom was too hungover to take me anymore.

There were like five years in my 20's when all my friends were getting married I had a suit but now that I'm in the funeral era I don't bother. I'm being flown up to MA to testify in court next month for my dad's trial and I'm 50/50 whether I'm even going to wear a dress shirt.

I'll bring one of our famous Potomac river perch to the reading!

Only food from home I genuinely miss is a Steak and Cheese from D'angelos and that's just because the worst D'angelos is better than the best sandwich place here in DC (that's not an invitation for people to pipe up with DC places; I've been here for 20 years and I've had every goddamned one.)

I am so pop culture blind I only know who two of the four pictured couples are.
