Falafel Sam's in Adams-Morgan is in the former spot of Amsterdam Falafel. It's okay, but it's just not the same.

Bad news: I got "Sir"ed (sirred? Called sir.) at the gym tonight. Good news: He was like, "Damn, sir, you're as strong as hell." (I'm not, really, but he wasn't funning me.)

At 930 club to see Sleigh Bells. The first opener just finished. They don't go on until 10pm. Have I made a huge mistake?

This might go down as classic thinking from before #thestupidestfamine, but no matter how deep the discount, if you ever see me buying canned La Choy Hot & Sour soup at the supermarket, just end me.

I'm a fan of #latenightgroceryshopping (as long as they haven't put away the produce for the night), but if go the wrong night, you might be there as they're switching prices from one week's specials to the next. And I just don't need that kind of uncertainty in my life.

Was asked tonight, honestly and unironically (as far as I can tell) if I was a Mexican trapeze artist. (The answer, unfortunately, being no.}

Working on a unified theory of my creative output over time. Meanwhile, the immediate question: Will resuming microblogging my mundane observations make the world a better place? No. Will future generations mark this as a turning point/watershed moment? Also no. Will it make me happier? Probably.

Say what you like about Elon Musk, but at least he gave #GenX its first president.

During bar small talk tonight, I basically transposed (is that the right word?) Oslo into Sweden. Anyway, the IKEA museum is located in Älmhult, Sweden. It is apparently an ok visit. #dumbthings

I cut my evening outing short so I could make it home in time to catch one of the very best Deep Space Nine episodes, "Duet," on H&I TV. (On basic cable. Which I pay for.)

I can see any episode of DS9, at any time, on Paramount+ streaming. WHICH I PAY FOR. #dumbthings

I have no stake in this outcome, but maybe the Penn State fan shouldn't celebrate a TD by going anti-Catholic and calling Notre Dame "molesters"

2024 Voting Decision Guide for Undecided Voters

1. Think about the dumbest, meanest people you knew in high school.

2. Look at their social media. See who they support politically. (They're probably not shy about it.)

3. Vote for the other candidate.

This is why I lament the downfall of Twitter (lost to a rich, closeted facist manchild): The disaggregation of my 1 or 2-credit Touchtunes endurance triumph over the (apparently) Eagles fan

Thumbnail of a Men's Journal article about Francis Ford Coppola's upcoming movie, but the thumbnail only shows the letters GALOPOL

For a moment, thought Francis Ford Coppola was remaking Gallipoli
