I watched the Muppet Show. Disney is so stupid and groupthunk that it's taken them 22 fucking years to learn what actually makes the Muppets funny and good, but they finally did it.

All the little dudes from Katamari Damacy appear to have escaped and found their way into the Eurovision final. #WinterOlympics

Watch out where the huskies go
And don't you eat that yellow snow

I'm glad it didn't happen during dry January. It would have been anticlimactic. I've had a bottle of champagne in my refrigerator at the ready for years now.

With Seattle in the national spotlight this weekend, I fear the powers that be might try to make Macklemore a thing again. Let us stay vigilant and not allow this.

I always forget how much I love curling

I'm so pumped for the Olympics. I always am, but jfc, we need some inkling of international normalcy right now.

A 2nd generation iPod Classic sitting on a desk, with the opening tracks from Radiohead's Hail to the Thief pulled up

Blast from the past right here - got my old iPod (2nd generation) out and it still works. Battery's shot, naturally. On brand for me, I jailbroke it in college and changed the font to something goofy. No firewire ports now so it's a time capsule from ~2008.

I always knew Chomsky's universal grammar was BS.

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

The Caine Mutiny for sure! Captain Queeg is one of the most interesting antagonists in literature.

me, at every picture of Epstein just to make sure it's not Anthony Bourdain:

Happy worst month of the year to all those who observe

we've got OJ, cuz we've got a band

I've found that Reddit game threads can fill that sports void. A little different, certainly, but it scratches the itch.

Imagine being so far up your own ass that you look down on others for "over-empathizing."

French horns are often included in wind ensembles or sat with the woodwinds in an orchestra because they have a more reedy timbre and blend well with the winds. Less of a mislabeling, more of a "what does this thing do" vs. "how is it useful"

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

DHS posted a picture of it on their insta

In addition, the gun is a Sauer P320, which apparently has a reputation in the firearms community for accidental discharges. I'm sure they'll try and blame the gun.

It's been January for months in both directions

First Reformed. Quietly claustrophobic (just like I will be this weekend)

I'm hopeful that the snow on the way is gonna be pretty movable. Lower midwest doesn't normally get light powder (what the mountain people call "freshies") - but we rarely get any moisture when it's cold as shit like this anyway.

It looks that way 🤮

One thing that's important to know about me: not only do I have an overactive inner monologue, but probably about 35-40% is just quotes from the seminal early YouTube work "The Juggernaut, Bitch"
