I was at a recent signing where I noted that we suspect about 10 to 15 percent of sales for this book came purely from the cover, and someone in the signing line who heard the comment said "Oh thank god, I'm not alone," which I thought was pretty funny.

Javier, our CEO, wanted to check in with everybody. He hopes you're doing alright. If not, you're welcome to take a few deep breaths with him and think of something you're looking forward to. Javi is looking forward to the Bad Bunny halftime show โค๏ธ

There's a point, well below a billion dollars, where the amount of money you have lets you rid yourself of anyone who can be a check on your worst impulses, and replace them with people who tell you those worst impulses are somehow valorous. Rare is the billionaire with someone to tell them "no."

There's the line from Citizen Kane: "It's no trick to make a lot of money if all you want is to make a lot of money." The problem is the sort of personality for whom money is the ends rather than the means, is not generally a great personality to be around.

When anyone from SCTV dies itโ€™s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else youโ€™ve ever met.

It always feels like all the wrong people die, but I think itโ€™s because there are far more beloved people than there are bastards.

The news cycle has become one long experiment in "What happens if we put someone with no idea what they're doing in charge of something important" and GUYS I THINK WE HAVE THE ANSWER, REALLY, WE CAN STOP NOW

Well, all things come to an end, and so, just shy of 11 years, I am no longer employed by Tom's Guide.

If you're looking for a guy who can mash sentences together real good, feel free to give me a jingle.

Gibraltar is a reallll weird place and Iโ€™m happy we worked it into our plans. The second you cross the โ€œborderโ€ into the UK from Spain it really feels like youโ€™re in the UK. Because you are. Sort of. Thereโ€™s even a transit network with double decker buses!

Oh, and you can walk across the runway.

Pluribus: The Official Podcast TV & Film Podcast ยท Weekly Series ยท Join Pluribus editor and host Chris McCaleb, along with members of the cast and crew, for an inside look at the making of the new Apple Original series. Each week, ...

Each episode of the podcasts covers the making of a single episode of its TV show, and they take a no-spoilers-for-future-episodes approach. Down to earth, authentic, and highlighting the team aspect of filmmaking, these podcasts are absolute gems.

Do you miss director commentaries on DVDs? Me tooโ€”and that's why I love the official podcasts dedicated to the making of his shows.

The official "Breaking Bad", "Better Call Saul" and "Pluribus" podcasts are absolutely wonderful and are worth listening to if you're into that kinda thing.

More Dems need to think about skating to where the puck will be not where it is.

All indications are Trump's brain has turned to mush and no one around him will even try to control his worst impulses.

He will just get way crazier and more evil and unpopular by November.

@gruber.foo I use column view in the finder. I had to switch to โ€œWhen scrollingโ€ after a Tahoe update made โ€œAlwaysโ€ hard to use when there are enough columns that requires the bottom scroll bar, because the bottom scroll bar blocks the ability to adjust the column widths when in โ€œAlwaysโ€.

Javier, our CEO, hopes your holiday break was everything you needed it to be. It is understandable if you need a bit more time to get reacclimated this morning. He hopes 2026 brings you love, happiness, and plenty of good dogs. He is comfortable handling that last one โค๏ธ
