Saw it tonight. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sunday show host challenged his officials about his lies. He gets away with it.
I turned 39 and a month later my kid was born. He’s 13 now.
You gone be tired a lot.
Grab joy whenever you can.
Tonight, it was a spontaneous decision to take the 13-year-old to see the new Naked Gun.
Solid parenting choice.
The 30-Year-Old Baby is a sci-fi title from a 1974 issue of Omni.

Same thing, only imagining or planning anything more than a few weeks ahead is impossible. The future is lava.
No way to see the path ahead.
But we are grabbing joy where we can. Every day.

Run on erasing them from public life and governmental power. Forever.
In my days of covering college sports, I used to love a men’s and women’s basketball double-header.
The NBA and WNBA are missing a huge opportunity to slightly tweak their regular season schedules and create 2-3 instances every season of something similar on the professional level.
I love it, too.
Generally speaking, I think Evans’ Cap is always pretty solid, but First Avenger and Winter Soldier made me believe other super heroes would follow him into battle.
If we are lucky, the second FF will follow sort of like Capt America: Winter Soldier, which is absolutely my favorite MCU movie and spent a lot of energy reinforcing Cap as a hero among heroes.
Like Winter Soldier, a second FF will follow an Avengers joint.

Where have the marooned colonists been getting Deuterium? And shielding material?
Now I gotta come up with Space Libyans.

If generative AI could REALLY make the next GTA in 6 months with 10 staff, or write the next bestseller, or produce 10 blockbusters a day? They wouldn't be trying to sell it to YOU. They would keep it for themselves and guard it from you ferociously.

Just under 1,000 miles of road time since 8am yesterday. The Flaming Lips have confirmed I am not epileptic.

I listened to their offer and turned them down, cold.
I’d love to know your story, if you want to share.
Fuck.

I couldn’t help but think: that dude sucked a lot of dick to only end up driving a shitty truck.
I can’t be the only one to jump to that conclusion.

Y’all just remember to take joy every single time you can. Don’t feel guilty about it.
Joy is like air. If you run out, the game may be over.
My joy today: a call from my Texas Bestie and watching my son play with our puppy.
Thanks for continuing to post for those of us here. I truly appreciate your presence on BlueSky.
