The Applebee’s Big Easy menu is what you get when you type “New Orleans Food” into ChatGPT.

Update: Doordashing a Popeyes family meal since we have contractors doing work on the house so I can feed them and also be a glutton myself.

“Hey, I think I made an error in the database.”

A couple years ago I had a Zinger Mountain Melt from Miller’s Ale House in Orlando, which is basically cheese fries topped with tenders that have been tossed in your choice of wing sauce. I bring it up for no reason other than I would like to have a plate of that right now.

Second to last quality session before race day, I am ready for this to be over

We all start young and invincible, and the next thing you know you’re texting with your dad and brother about glute and hip activation exercises.

The singlet I’m wearing for the race we’re running in Vienna arrived, I’m in love.

The human body is amazing in how it can adapt to repeated physical demands over time, and how harder efforts gradually become easier. However, somehow, you will smell the exact same amount of ass after every workout, regardless of intensity. Truly amazing.

Monday-ass Tuesday.

Update: Levi’s 514 straight leg pants, where have you been all my life

Lunchtime dog walks are BACK folks

It passes the cold pizza test, all hail RaceTrac pizza, our new trashpizza overlord.

Have never felt more betrayed than when I walked into Nordstrom Rack looking for some new slacks for our trip to Europe in April, found several colors in my size, only to realize they were all slim fit. I have an American-sized ass/thighs, you’re just asking me to split my pants walking in Vienna.

Got an entire pizza from RaceTrac and hoo boy for $10/being ready 8 minutes after you order it, you could do a lot worse. All I need now is a Friday night and an N64.

One painful omission from Bluesky has been LSU baseball's excellent in-game updates and posts. Since I have no desire to keep using my Twitter account and LSUBaseball hasn't migrated to 🦋 yet, I decided to create a bot that will mirror their posts: @lsubaseball-mirror.bsky.social

Liverpool finally looks like this year’s iteration of Liverpool after a few off performances, but that can turn quickly if (and when) City finds a goal, so this one is gonna be nerve-racking right up until the end.

Uncle Rico being the main antagonist in the White Lotus has ruined Napoleon Dynamite for me forever

“Stroad City, USA” sounds like a shirt

Your annual Carnival reminder that this is what they took from you (everywhere you could see a parade, 1977)

It was good.

We remember Steve Irwin on what would've been his 63rd birthday: 🇦🇺🐊

Last 20-miler of this training block this morning, then we’re finally on to the Blessed Taper™️.

Rewatching White Lotus S1, I wonder how little direction Steve Zahn and Jennifer Coolidge got, because their best bits just seem like they’re just improvising.

Okay rolling out my front door, walking a block, and being at a mardi gras parade is pretty fucking cool. In honor of it being the parade my college roommate is in, wearing a @zrau.bsky.social Tigerland tshirt where her and I definitely never spent any time.
