Got pranked by my neighbor's cat. I see this cat in the window of Pizza Luna frequently, and while coming home from my morning coffee walk he ran outside to get cuddles. He acted like he was accidentally left outside, meowing, and refused to walk through the gate. After 30 mins he just walks in.

Taskmaster became a gateway drug. I've now downloaded multiple full series of QI and Would I Lie To You. I knew they all existed for years, but I get it now.

(block print of a whistle with rays coming out of it, a star in the upper right corner, and silhouettes of a crowd of people below with fists raised.) FORM A CROWD, STAY LOUD. Protect each other.

Not to mention the daily chat with my barista friends, the nice old man with the walker who attracts all the dogs, the tourists coming and going, the smell of the bakeries, my neighbors saying hi in the elevator...just a nice thing to have so much interaction early to get your day going.

Realized I'm only truly happy when I live in a walkable city area. My morning stroll to get coffee and a few small items to cook for the day triggers a small "task completed" endorphin rush. Suburb living always depressed me; driving everywhere is just the worst thing ever.

Sometimes I glance at YouTube and there's a video about Doctor Who, Star Trek, etc., that's like "breaking news! a thing happened!"

And then instead of watching a 30 minute video I go and look for text-based sites that can tell me in three sentences what the thing that happened was.

Does anyone remember the local phone line from late 80s to mid 90s where you heard stories?

i found this on reddit

When i was a pre-teen, there were a bunch of landline based phone-in games that were advertised in our local paper. They were choose-your-own-adventure games where you chose an option after each part of the story. Anyone remember this? I believe it was called "Phone-A-Tale". Wizard Quest was one.

One of my favorite things when i DJ is when i tell someone i don't have internet and i can't play their song they requested. They usually stare, mouth agape, trying to figure out a solution in their drunken minds. No, I can't play Otis Redding at da club right now because you're about to leave.

I've been listening to a lot of Asian and Indigenous music from KEXP's specialty shows and yes, there's something about hearing different speech patterns and syllables that is comforting to me.

I love Tricky so, so much. But yeah, saw him a few years back and it was one of the worst/most uncomfortable shows to watch. Still, these albums are so incredible.

Bonded with an old school goth friend of mine at the IAMX show last night...she modified her car to say "Takuro Spirit" as the model name, which is a Dark Tower deep cut. Needless to say I'm totally enamored now. It takes specific nerdy things to make my brain go all fuzzy.

Phrases like skibidi, 67, fanum tax, etc aren’t inherently more bad, dumb, or meaningless than the memes you grew up with; you’re just not 14 any more
