I’m grateful today for an adventure in town with my youngest, grateful for terrible music that makes my kids laugh, and grateful for long-lost socks. #3Gratitudes
The goal this week is just four short runs and a 10km long run. #runTO
2026 Frank Sinatra: Stop spreading the news
Yesterday’s run. A quick morning trek around a small English island. 0.1 km walking after 2.70 km, quick pace. #runTO
So I guess we’re going to have to have a talk about that.
“Are we friends?” my youngest asked their cousin over video games.
“We’re cousins,” he said.
“Yeah, but cousins can be friends.”
“That’s true. We’re friendly.“
They played on in silence, happy with this new agreement.
“Except in America,” my youngest mused, “where your cousin is your wife.”
The shoes are how everyone knows the pecking order. For every time someone displeases him their shoe size goes up one
It’s certainly true that whenever these guys talk about strength and freedom and bravery or whatever, we can all say “Yeah, but you cowards were all too afraid to wear your own shoes.”

Oh, boy!
Couldn't believe no one had picked NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD in almost 11 years of the podcast, but maybe it was waiting for Jon all along. Don't miss this episode.
I’m grateful today for a good morning run, grateful for a walk in the country, and grateful for old video games. #3Gratitudes
Stephen King: “I love him. It’s his face and sometimes the way his eyes turn up to mine that makes me feel as if things are really okay. It’s a lie, of course - things are not okay and never have been - but my kid makes me believe the lie.”
Ford has never been one to let a little negativity get in the way of a terrible idea.

I’m grateful today for a couple of weeks off, grateful for time alone today with each of my kids, and grateful for a good meal. #3Gratitudes
“More than four-in-five (84%) Canadians support removing Mountbatten-Windsor from the line of succession, including three-quarters (73%) who strongly do so. Agreement is found across all demographics that it’s time to formalize the former prince’s exit from royalty.” angusreid.org/canada-monar...
I’ve found that the best way to avoid taking a question like “Who did you vote for?” personally is to never vote for anyone who I’d be ashamed to admit that I’d voted for.
“We deeply regret getting instantly caught.”
“Inadvertently airing video from an older dignified transfer” sounds like a big deal, but it’s not as big a deal as “intentionally airing video of Trump not wearing a baseball cap to a dignified transfer to conceal the fact that that’s what he wore to this one,” which is what actually happened here.
Everything is on the table when you’ve got no idea what you’re doing.
a lot of Americans who voted for Trump will be very uncomfortable being held publicly accountable for their votes while everyone else suffers and there are going to be so many white tears about it
What’s especially unusual about this is that the CPC convention occurred right in the heart of that big dip in their polling.
All I know is that if I were an American tourist, and I had voted for Harris, then “I voted for Harris” would be the first thing I said whenever I walked into a room.
I know this isn’t the point, but imagine going to “the North of Ireland” because you wanted to get away from politics.
The two types of hosts I admire on SNL are effortlessly charming hosts and then the exact opposite where Adam Driver shows up, knows his lines better than every member of the cast and treats every sketch like it’s Macbeth
Not that we’d be solving any problems by sending them off to terrorize other communities, of course.
I mean, it’s not a bad answer to the “What are we supposed to do with all these surplus thugs if we abolish ICE?” question.
If you’re a kid, like I was when it first came out, Sting’s “Englishman in New York” is a really confusing song. Especially if you already know he once walked on the moon.
