I wish tv shows would do a really exhaustive recap episode at the beginning of the season. Shows nowadays are so complex and bitch, I ain’t got time to watch the whole series again to refresh my memory. What happened up to this point in Stranger Things? Couldn’t tell you.

My 21 month old was messing around with some of my Star Wars stuff and pointed to a picture of the Death Star and said “moon”. I calmly but proudly replied “that’s no moon.”

Customer: “did you know your ‘open’ sign is off?” Me: “and yet, here you are.”

Who knew the 1972 Canada-Russia series would be repeated in 2025.

If anyone is worried about the state of the world, don’t worry; my moustache looks rad today.

You know what Raffi, you SHOULD call the White House and have a chat. @raffic.bsky.social #useyourbananaphone

Anyone who thinks that DEI initiatives are bad, remember this: racial segregation was so recent in history that the Beatles, while touring America, had to specify in their contracts that they would not perform in front of a segregated audience.

In these very uncertain times, the thing that will save us is art, particularly music. Art in general is a reflection of the times in which it was made, and music especially is a force that responds to the culture directly and immediately. Bad times breeds amazing music. Just wait. It’s coming.

I bet Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state just so he can travel here legally.

My kid kinda discovered a love of music and certain song preferences…at Christmas. Now all he wants to hear is Jingle Bell Rock and Candy Cane Lane. I’d do anything for my kid, but even I have my limits…

So when you get out of the shower and dry yourself off, there’s like…a *way* you do it, right? Like, a way YOU do it. An order, a style. You know. In secret. And nobody knows about it; nobody knows *your* order but you. And if they told you their order, you’d say “huh. You think you know an MFer.”

So the COUNTRY of Canada is going to become the 51st state before the US territories of Puerto Rico, Guam, Samoa, or even DC, do? Seems…unlikely.

Me at the dentist: I flossed 20 minutes before I got here so we good, right?

Man, Kevin McCallister had to clean all that shit up. What a drag. Hardly seems worth it. Just let them rob you, dude.

When it comes to Home Alone, the whole thing is that fucking Mitch Murphy kid’s fault.

Whenever I’m at an event with my kid and we are singing kiddie songs, I’m the asshole who insists on singing harmonies to Wheels on the Bus.

You know whose lyrics kinda suck? Katy Perry’s. It’s like, no Katy, I do not feel and have never felt like a plastic bag. Is this an aspect of the human condition that I’m missing out on?

So what if i throw my hands in the air but i DO care where, how and under what circumstances that i wave them?

You know, for a song called “Jingle Bell Rock”, it contains shockingly little actual rock in it.

Checking out bluesky. I’ve heard it’s the least toxic social media app. We’ll see. Anyway, video games and Star Wars and guitars!
