NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.
With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.
I was lucky enough to book tickets for the Stranger Things Finale at the local theater. Congrats to everyone who worked on it. Well done Duffer Brothers, you delivered a satisfying finale to a truly special show. Bravo. I can't wait for their next epic series.
My PlayStation wrap up for 2025. Honestly I’m surprised with how many multiplayer games I played this year.
I’m way too obsessed with Arc Raiders. 🤩 I feel like a teen again. Time melts away as you play. After each match, I'm like, 'just one more.' I somehow managed to clock 18 hours this weekend. Thankfully, it was daylight savings. This game slaps.
Weapons was great 4/4. I would definitely recommend it, and I'm happy to have seen it on opening day! So far, it's the best movie I've seen this year, with Sinners close behind.
Here are my top 10 senior zoomies!
Should I add it to my list?
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.
The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences.
The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.
Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.
A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.
Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.
Bernie, you rascal! You’re spot on here.
If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline.
There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

Well, Nioh 3 is real. If you can't tell I was very excited to play it. The open world evolution feels purposeful with incentives to explore every last corner. Shaping up to be Team Ninja's magnum opus, this is decidedly a day one for me.
Me: *Downloads game I previously dropped.*
The game:
I started Indiana Jones and the Great Circle yesterday and played for 6 hours straight. This game is fantastic! I love the world immersion, the hand to hand fighting and the puzzles. Troy Baker nails Harrison Ford in this. I can’t stop.
Triathlon update: Now that I'm one month out, I decided to put my training powers to good use. I'm participating in the 5 miles for the American Cancer Society during May. I know it's a tough time for everyone, but I would love your support if you have a few dollars to spare!

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime.
Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed.
I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.
This seems right, and all of this is WRONG.
Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI.
“Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.
The Pitt on Max is incredible.
