How small are these hands, that they still appear tiny, even when much closer to camera?! Even with a really long lens, foreshortening should be making them appear larger than they are! Right?

I'm really going to miss After Midnight. Taylor Tomlinson is so great, and I am consoled by the fact that we will be getting even more of her brilliant stand up.

Just in time for it to morph into an extension of the original series! Finish out Kirk's five year mission with the SNW cast plus new McCoy, Sulu, et al. Just start back up with Season 4!

Sometimes around 1997, I was at Skywalker Sound, and heard a distinctive voice that I recognized, but couldn't place. Then around the corner came Brian Wilson with some audio engineers! I was too surprised and in awe to introduce myself. I'm glad I was able to be two feet from him as he passed by.

I've been using the Keystone Station Map Kit by Dave Graffam Models for our Mongoose Traveller game, along with his Starport Hotel and Starport Precinct Map kits. It's just US$10! An incredible value for #ttrpg GMs! I got it printed at blueprint-size at the local copy center. Teaspoon for scale.

Really enjoying the latest series of @taskmaster.tv. Each contestants is outstanding, but they are a true 𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐥𝐞. The casting is always excellent on this show, but I don't remember any group having this kind of chemistry with each other (and Alex and Greg) before. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I can't believe that on this week's "Love Hurts" episode of @flophousepodcast.com, Elliott said "Quarry Feldman" and neither @dankmccoy.bsky.social nor @flophousecat.bsky.social noted it as a perfect Flintstones guest star name! Disappointing.

Earlier this week, I introduced @mzbeca.bsky.social to the masterpiece that is "Nobody." Ever since, we've been thinking about homemade lasagne...I just took my homemade lasagne out of the oven. Thank you, movies!

You should still try to see Sinners in a theater if you can, but if you can't, see it at home. Just see it, ok? It's so good.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"
