found a thread of young twitter users under a clip of ed norton in “american history x” asking why such “center-right views on crime and immigration” were being presented as “nazi”

apparently it’s taken less than 30 years for his explicit neo-nazi character to be considered center-right in america.

Oh wrestling is fake?

Then explain this

some college age kid buying beer at the bodega just addressed me as “sir”. does that mean i’m starting to look my age?

spent the evening rewatching “remembrance of the daleks” and crying about dursley mclinden. the hourlong documentary they released as part of the bluray box of sylvester mccoy’s second season as the doctor is really something wonderful. is strange to suddenly feel so much for someone you never knew.

Wake up babe we got a

it only took 10 days and now it’s showing me hunting simulator games? really lost the plot this time.

woke up today to discover the algorithms must think i’m lonely. all the apps spontaneously throwing ads for AI boyfriend simulators the likes i’d never even imagined before.

update: i got really sick and, aside from a couple remote work meetings where i stayed off camera, pretty much stayed in bed for a couple straight days sleeping excessive hours. and i’ve now seemingly reset back to normal night owl rules. let’s see if it lasts.

and i’ll do it again!

ever since surprising myself by becoming a morning person out of the blue, my greatest confusion is: why don’t any of the major networks show early morning cartoons anymore like they did when i was a kid?

facebook won’t stop showing me ads for a particular pair of ann demeulemeester grey calfskin suede high tops with ladder lacing and a side zipper that i would buy in a heartbeat if they weren’t almost a thousand bucks. why does the algorithm know my taste so well but not remotely my budget?

is this just one of those things that happens as we get older?

really not sure how i feel about this early bird transformation but i’m trying to embrace it. got right out of bed and took charge of an overdue haircut & cleaned myself up & made breakfast and even calmly watched almost a whole movie before it was time to start the work day….

historically, if i’d told you my sleep schedule had fallen off again, it would mean i’m staying up all night n finally passing out some time after sunrise. but for the past week, i’ve been waking up feeling fresh btw 5 and 6am, (without an alarm!) and dead asleep in bed well before midnight.

saying "go birds" but just rooting for birds in general, hope they're having fun and not catching that flu

once again, i find myself thinking about that time the bar rescue guy tried to make a show where he played the role of relationship counselor, trying to fix people’s marriages rather than their businesses. it only lasted one season.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

There is still beauty in this world

tbh i don’t mind the fact that it’s still safe for me to scroll this app in public but i honestly had no idea there was a whole logic of specific feeds to subscribe to on here rather than individuals too

with the exorbitant tariffs on mexican goods going into effect, i feel like right wing boomers are missing a great opportunity for jokes about the lengths millennials will have to go to fund our increasingly expensive avocado toast habit.

for close to two decades there was only one man i would go to for haircuts. with decreasing frequency as i could handle moderate trimming myself. haven’t made an appointment since 2019 but i’m feeling like it’s finally time to let a professional at it soon rather than jus buzz my unruly head again

what i am surprised to see a lot of is mushroom photography. is this a big thing on this app or has my algorithm just decided it’s gonna be MY new thing?

yes, yes it is. i’m already thinking through what different choices i want to make on a third play through

i turned off the sensitive content filters on my bluesky account days ago and am strangely disappointed to report back i still haven’t seen any extreme violence or overtly sexual imagery in my feed yet anyway.

i often wonder what’s wrong with my taste buds that i so greatly enjoy jeppson’s malört. wish it were easier to find outside chicago!

it’s 4am and i just sent out more work emails in the past hour than i did during actual work hours today. realized years ago that my natural tendency is to reverse night and day. so, time to admit it’s becoming a problem again, find my old UV-blocking glasses and methodically work on this….

just had a family member try argue with me that when the 14th amendment says “all persons born or naturalized in the united states…” they didn’t actually mean to expand rights to anyone other than freed slaves. is birthright citizenship really about to become an originalist vs textualist fight?

very beautiful interview with the owner of Laura Palmer's house here.
