Damn.

No, I don’t think I need an app that streamlines the process of buying an air filter. [Deletes saddest email I have ever received]

anyways please watch this edit that sent me into hysterics and now I need to redo my makeup

Basically today was a bunch of dead ends and false starts but hey, I got some empty boxes out of the house that have been piling up.

The “falling man” ghost photo has haunted me for years, but thanks to an hour of investigation, I know the truth and it’s not as scary. Just good work all around, by both the photographer and the documentarian. m.youtube.com/watch?v=4V44...

Happy first Pride without Anita Bryant!

6 month anniversary to a column that I think is fun and I write!

I’m tired of learning about new celebrities. I just want to watch Abbott & Costello and old monster movies.

I guess I’m in the minority when I say, “Yadda, yadda, yadda” with two d’s. Is everyone else using one?

Although it’s over and may/may not be back, I talk up Universal’s Fan Fest Nights! Unlike the Tale of Tsar Saltan, I liked it! #fanfestnights #universalstudios

Calling this up AGAIN because it kicks so much ass. Six horror novels by well-known authors using pseudonyms, published by a lost occult publishing house. There IS built-in creepy lore! The publisher’s history is a horror story in itself! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dea...

It was David’s X-Factor run that made me go, “Oh yes, Peter David, excellent writer” like I’d been missing out on everything else he did. I’ll be preordering his Supergirl trade from DC this month. aiptcomics.com/2025/05/25/p...

I won’t tell anyone if I win the lotto, but there will be signs. Like I will start posting the most unhinged shit on LinkedIn.

Something wild in this technologically advanced year of our Lord 2025. There’s a book I just cannot find online. It’s Maurice Casey’s “Is John’s Gospel True.” Came out in 2004. Big academic publisher, Routledge. And for all the searching on the internet, I cannot find a copy for sale.

A story of personal triumph as I bravely navigate customer service to restore the SINGLE DAMN CREDIT I earned for working on a feature film in 1998. The story can be told! (And it has a happy ending!) Funny article, haha, please enjoy.

Bob Dylan, drawn from memory, apparently.

An article not by me, but fascinating nonetheless (heh heh). The bird used in a key scene in 2000’s “Charlie’s Angels” film has been a major flub for birders for 25 years. The bird shown isn’t what it’s called, and its call is wrong. But mystery solved! slate.com/culture/2025...

Was dissecting a turtle in high school and when I stuck the scalpel in it popped like a grapefruit…right into my eye. Had to use the eyewash.

Videos To Go in Easton, PA, was large enough for maybe five people, plus one sitting behind a tiny counter. You had to go behind the deli to get in.

WTF was up with the DBZ side quests? #dragonballz

Money for nothing? And chicks for free? In THIS economy? #direstraits

The Wizard of VD.

Microsoft Teams is saying what we’re all thinking!

I really don’t like ANDOR. SMOKING AND/OR VAPING!!!

The man sitting in front of me on this flight is listening to an audiobook by holding his phone up to his ear. I dislike this man.
