all I ever want from a notepad app is to let me edit a txt file *maybe* give me an optional spell check, but I'll respect you more if you don't

I feel like those guys who's hobby is filming trains as they pull into stations really have it figured out

a textbook example of a voluntary false confession; the facts of the case clearly indicate a toaster oven making it impossible for this fame seeking two slot toaster to be the perpetrator this is why you always have to verify witness testimony

this coffee shop took down it's main water heater with a rogue toaster oven this morning but the espresso bar is still live so now i get to watch the lone barista play roulette with incoming orders as people increasingly trickle in

the proof that Steven Spielberg is the greatest populist director of all time is that he knew the true central dramatic tension of Lincoln('12) was the audience's urgent desire to see Tommy Lee Jones take that wig off

here I am, like sisyphus, clearing pocket lint out of a usb-c port

Live and Let Die(1973) and Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat('24) are the same movie minus one twenty minute long speedboat chase

the pocket knife community loves saying something's their EDC (every day carry) and I guess that's a cool tacti-speak acronym but it lacks the panache of "You know I keep that Thang on me"

I'll make it 2011 again through sheer force of will

ideating on dinner

cooking up a 'architectural lighting is bad, actually' take but I haven't quite gotten it to hold together, stay tuned

putting this sign up on the new york border is the most hilariously out of pocket thing I can ever remember connecticut doing and it fills me with so much pride

We're Not Going Back! We're Not Going Back! I impotently chant about wide legged men's pants

just saw a dude who's whole aesthetic I could only describe as "fly black albert einstein"

tragically, Gershwin couldn't compose An American in Paris today because of Woke (constantly honking cars removed by pedestrianization efforts)

the sexiest album of all time and the asymptotic benchmark against which the sexiness of all other albums is judged is Sketches of Spain by Miles Davis and Gil Evans

is higher praise possible than having an album you made deemed "the sexiest music of the year" by a jury of experts

modelo is fine but it's real value was creating a permission structure for the american consumer to switch back to full weight beer

there should be more songs about how the artist just absolutely hates a particular city

I needed to write the word bureau today and after a few failed attempts I just googled "fbi" and copy pasted

thinking about that man getting stuck in that urn

an elegant weapon for a more civilized age (a tapered rolling pin)

the dudes in this hercules movie just don't look greek enough for me

the little boy Franz I just passed Kafka on the street 🤝 "Daddy, what if you were a BUG?!?"

surely the kids have started saying "crashes out" because, like me, they watched High Sierra(1941) when it was featured in Criterion's Staring Ida Lupino collection last November

thinking about my friend from highschool who paid his phone carrier to make his ringback Can't Stop by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers

we need someone to innovate a new rude hand gesture, where are the youth of america?

'beatles' is just the british spelling of that word you can't prove I'm wrong, they do a lot of weird things with letters over there

the classic "frank assessment of trade offs" draft to "winning at [abstract concept]" final presentation pipeline

it's incredible how durable the lyric "spilled kefir on your keffiyeh" turned out to be

I want to own like an honest to goodness rainslicker; like I'm manning a lighthouse, or hawking fishsticks
