Happy World Goth Day to all who Celebrate

“DEVO but only the hat” as a genre. Fruit Corners Fruit Bar™️ ad DEVO. Ironically the most perfectly devolved version of the form.

Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

BARB AND STAR GO TO VISTA DEL MAR and THEATER OF BLOOD, the only question is which one comes first?

I’ve been fantasizing about programming double features for like 24 hours straight.

“if you inherited a movie theater, what’s your first double feature?”

Man I’m always slightly annoyed when the theme of a Doctor Who episode is how awesome Doctor Who is.

The Curse of Frankenstein is a stone cold banger

I’m interested in Ralph Fiennes being sad, or being quietly efficient, or being quietly kind, or being sadly quietly efficient, or being sadly kind, etc.

I wrote about Joe Don Baker, Walking Tall, and one of the greatest comedy films of all time—the MST3K version of Mitchell. Word on the street is, you’re a jerk! defector.com/mitchell-is-...

David Bowie's father: hey i have an idea why don't you reinvent yourself as somebody who mows the goddamn lawn

Well kiss, and I cannot emphasize this enough, my grits.

Actually this is a common misconception, master pizza makers traditionally wear trucker hats and Motörhead t-shirts. The chef’s toque and mustache is the official uniform of the workers at the cardboard pizza box factory.

Pizza-chef Mustache

New Poker Face is pretty fun.

Interrupted my wife’s work zoom by singing too boisterously to the dog

This episode is, forgive me, a real banger

This is also a good day to enjoy some alternative Star War adjacent content like MESSAGE FROM SPACE (1978), which rules.

Good day to get caught up on ANDOR, clearly the best Star War.

Either those little demons from “The Solider and Death” or John Denver. One of them might not technically count as a Muppets but surely the other one does.

My idea? Fourth Eye Blind

My favorite vibe for a used bookstore is "The labyrinth beckons you. You may never venture forth from this place but if you can manage to escape you will have 3-4 very good, cheap, books."

You CAN’T just eat deep discount Easter candy for breakfast? Or maybe you just WON’T.

Movie you’ve seen more than six times using gifs

Nerds among you with opinions about this sort of thing- should I commit to using Jupyter notebooks instead of spreadsheets whenever possible? What am I leaving behind if I do this?

All for Pagus!

Bread that looks like a dude

Nothing is so delightfully 90’s than Jim Henson’s The Storyteller. Maybe it invented the 90’s, since it’s from 1988?

real good, like always

Set up / punch line

Don’t sleep on “Dreamcatcher” (2003), everyone’s favorite big budget psychic bro retreat alien apocalypse multiple personality horror action concept salad

Hey there are some real good shows you might have missed - the Alex Garland show DEVS, and THE PATIENT with Steve Carell.

Realized that I’ve been reacting to 4 out of 5 texts with this image for weeks

I say this without a hint of irony, I have yet to eat at a restaurant that had a “featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” sign up that wasn’t wonderful. HRD Coffee Shop (RIP) and Scolari’s in Alameda are stand outs but I feel like whenever I’ve eaten in one of these places it’s been a winner.
