It's like a school bully who daily steals everyone else's lunch money and then complains, "Why do I have to sit by myself during lunch? That hardly seems fair."

But you won't see Dems putting Trump "I DID THAT" stickers on gas pumps, because we have to see his face way too much as it is.

It's not even Herbert Hoover...

This is particularly true of information that had likely been scraped from a previously existing website that, like so many websites from 1996-2006, is now defunct.

One thing I miss about old Google was the confidence that if you searched for something and didn't find it, then it probably didn't exist. (This was useful when brainstorming creative ideas and character names.) Now it can just mean that Google has deemed the information not worth holding onto.

I don't usually cross-post my FB content here, but eh.

Some of these are contextual, but basically I went with "if it makes me anxious in conversation or pop culture, it counts here." If I were actively dying alone, or going insane, or pregnant, I would probably fear that, but they're not phobias.

"Cuz like why are you here." = "I'm still too young to understand certain things, like just how soon I'll be staring down 40."

When your father was always right about most everything.

Maybe we can hire one of those YouTubers who find old and decrepit rugs and bring them back to life with a good toothbrush scrubbing.

Y'know how pilots, astronauts and other professions go through simulation testing periods before they're given control of powerful and/or costly resources?

We need something like that for leaders. Put them in a Virtual White House, see what they do with the power first before handing them the keys.

Older people: "♪We gotta get out of this place... if it's the last thing we ever do... ♫"

Me: "♪Now there's new Suncheros™... Suncheros light and crispy, 'cause they're made by pequeños Keebleros™...♫"

I don't know who needs to hear this, but please DO not go actively sh*tting on individual military servicemember's YouTubes and Discords and Instagrams and TikToks and whatever else. None of the recent decisions being made were theirs. Aim your complaints where they belong.

Did Alzheimer’s Impact Terry Pratchett’s Discworld? I have a variety of techniques I use to deal with the ongoing collapse of everything, most of them different kinds of drugs. But I also have healthy habits, like reading, and when it comes to readi…

A new study examined Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels to see if they could detect changes in his writing prior to his tragic Alzheimer's diagnosis. Here's what the study says, and what it doesn't say 🧪 skepchick.org/2026/03/did-...

Idea: A "Parks and Rec" style docu-show, but it's about an overly-enthusiastic worker who visits the various guards maintaining the mountainous Beacons of Gondor, making sure the wood is dry, that they have enough oil and kindling, and just keeping morale up after decades of not lighting them.

Dear IP milkers: stop giving us grandiose lore-bending prequels. Give us slice-of-life period piece miniseries, like a "Cheers"-style show at the Prancing Pony. Or a Bridgerton-like show set in House Tyrell. Or "The Adventures of Danny Pink."

John Stewart: "I swear, Congress is like male nipples: Why do you exist? You do NOTHING."

I had to look it up a word that was new to me:
"Kinemortophobia: the irrational fear of the living dead."

IRRATIONAL?! Really.

"So, do you have any irrational fears?"
-"Um, let's see... close spaces, bees, and... oh, and I have zero chill about unstoppable flesh-devouring zombies eating my brain."

The Artist.

Talked w/ someone about internet fame today, and realized that the definition has changed drastically in the last quarter century. It used to be a backhanded oxymoron of sorts ("Oh, they're 'internet famous'..."), but now it's an actual, profitable thing that people strive for. Funny how that works.

Hey, all you folks who voted third party or not at all to protest Biden/Harris Mideast policies, good job!

My new AI-related pet peeve: People who respond to anything remotely amazing with "That's AI."

REALITY CAN BE AWESOME TOO, BRENDA.

Now there's a man with a good head on his shoulders. Seriously, where'd you get that thing? It distracts from your own head, and is staining your shirt.

Thanks to technology, bananas are becoming obsolete as pretend phones. The future belongs to the Pop-Tart.

I saw a new restaurant by us called "Bruman's Hot Chicken."

Finally! No more of this"Iced Chicken" nonsense.
