When I was a kid, ring around the collar seemed like a much bigger problem than it is today. I’m glad we figured that one out!

I sincerely hope that somewhere in Hawaii there is a sub shop named “The Sandwich Island.”

Ketamine is a hell of a drug.

Fun, silly nerd fact about me - My iPhone is named “Rocinante Hand Terminal 001.” iykyk

Yeah, it’s… a lot. Definitely things I can appreciate, but the all the things all the time approach is overwhelming.

Crazy weather here in Anchorage today- gale force winds, driving rain, temps in the 40s (F). Pretty wild. We have a broken treetop and a bit of missing siding, but doing better than other folks around town. So glad climate change isn’t real!

It’s based on a real serial killer here in Anchorage during the oil boom of the 70s/80s named Robert Hansen. Wild stuff.

Tomorrow is J.R.R. #Tolkien's 133rd birthday! As Frodo did for Bilbo, the Tolkien Society continues to celebrate Tolkien's birthday in his absence with our #TolkienBirthdayToast. Our tradition: at 9pm your time raise a glass and toast "The Professor!" www.tolkiensociety.org/events/tolki...

It’s fantastic. Look up the music video for the theme song, “True Survivor,” by none other than David Hasselhoff.

It’s an amazing movie - I need to watch it again.

My diet of the last 3 days has consisted primarily of baked goods, chocolate, and dairy. I need a piece of fruit, stat!

The George C. Scott version is the gold standard.

My son just accidentally referred to the LOTR books as “the novelizations of the movies” and I was filled with both shame and rage. #lotr

We’re watching The LOTR films over the next 2 of weeks - The Fellowship of the Ring today (Christmas Day), then The Two Towers on New Year’s Day, and finally The Return of the King on January 3rd, which is J.R.R. Tolkien’s birthday. It turns out, to the surprise of no one , that I am a huge nerd.

I had the pleasure of hearing him speak at a conference a couple of weeks ago - what a remarkable man. Also, 84?!? He looked like he was 63, tops.

The whole Murderbot series is fantastic. Enjoy!

[Watching Casino Royale with my new girlfriend] *leans in* In America this movie is called Casino Quarter Pounder.

Oh ry’leh!

“Normal” and “Couch” are not words that connect for JD.

Every meal I have had in the last 36 hours has had gravy.

My breakfast this morning was leftover stuffing with gravy on top - cold, congealed, and unheated. I regret nothing.

It’s a perfect film - great acting, writing, and directing.

Perspective.

We’re watching “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving,” which brought up the topic of seasonal Peanuts specials. I think we need a new one: “¡Ay Dios Mio! Un Carlos Marrón Dia de Los Muertos.”

Raising Cane’s is Popeye’s for white people.

My almost 3-year old daughter just referred to me as her mom as her best friends, and then gave us both kisses. I’m slightly overwhelmed by the cuteness and wholesomeness of this.

2025 white house cabinet meeting

So, Alan Funt died in 1999. I propose that almost everything that has happened since is part of some celestial version of Candid Camera. He really hit his stride in 2016, and had been going strong ever since.

In this house, we believe:
- Science is real
- Love is love
- The Elder God Cthulhu will emerge from R'lyeh and bring destruction and peril across the land
- Kindness is everything

I’m a sucker for alternate history books. Think Harry Turtledove, for example. Throw in some magic, and it’s even better. S.M. Stirling’s Emberverse series is gold standard there. Lately, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Charlaine Harris’s Gunnie Rose series. It’s a real treat.
