Pet Peeve: people who refer to Blu Rays as DVDs.

When I write about this in my diary tonight, I'm just gonna pretend you're talking about Wiz.

This gives me hope. I think 2026 is the year I begin to experiment with the toothpick. Figuring out what clothing, hats, attitudes, etc. it pairs well or not well with. Like, funerals, definitely not gonna attempt it (yet).

I was a kid in the 80s. I couldn't wait to grow up so I could walk around with a toothpick hanging from my mouth and looking cool. Now I'm all grown up and nobody does that anymore and I feel like I unnecessarily sped up my childhood.

Counselor: These feelings of "everything sucks," how long have you had them? Butt-head: Uhh, since everything started to suck, I guess.

Here it is, your moment of zen.

I love how Giannis approached All Star weekend like it’s a week of summer camp goofing around with friends.

I know 2027 is in Phoenix, but when is an announcement expected for 2028?

Friday the 13th is the day Jason Voorhees tells us if he sees his shadow and if we're in store for more of this administration's horrors.

Republicans are like, "The stock market's over 50,000 so this Friday, The Purge is officially legal. Good luck!"

Target to test contextual ads in ChatGPT, including through Roundel Bringing Roundel brands to ChatGPT suggests retail media networks could be a bridge for larger AI chatbot advertising adoption.

Target execs trying to figure out how to make back profits because of previous PR catastrophes: "I dunno, what if we announce we're going to be among the first companies testing ads in ChatGPT?"

Target PR team: *FFS exasperated sound*

👆Which IS the same “cancel culture” and DEI actions they claim to be against. But they can't pause and use their own reaction as a learning moment for why representation DOES matter after all.

MAGA will complain about protests/boycotts and argue representation doesn’t matter by undoing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion efforts, then the moment they aren’t at the center of something (like the Super Bowl halftime) they boycott and create ways to have their interests represented and included...👇

In the 1900s if some of us wanted to listen to CDs in our car we needed to use a cassette tape connected to a portable CD player and they made commercials about this. The 90s were amazing.

What are brands going to do when some new league forms and trademarks their championship game "The Big Game"? Then what's the fallback plan, huh?

Great entry. Loved it.

Love EVERYTHING about this.

Just published it. The fact that this Marty Conlon commercial aired during a Yo! MTV Raps episode I recorded in 1995 is just the cherry on the (custard) sundae.

The fact that 3 different Jims were the first 3 people to respond to my post about a Marty Conlon Bucks commercial from 1995 is just too magical not to share. WHERE THE REST OF MY JIMS AT?! SLIM? HOW BOUT YOU?! HILLBILLY? HOW BOUT YOU?!

Jim, you were the first person I thought of when I uncovered this gem on one of my VHS tapes I found from the 90s.

Glad to hear! I just uploaded it. Enjoy! #SimplerTimes

I love this! Please tell me you shook hands and his handshake style featured that bent, crooked arm just like his shooting style!

For the real ones. After a long Milwaukee #Bucks rumor mill, you've earned this. Here's a local Liberty Bank commercial starring Marty Conlon. Why am I struggling to figure out of this is the Third Ward or downtown? This aired May 1995 as a commercial during Yo! MTV Raps which I recorded. Seriously.

Would the old Milwaukee Bucks heads of Bluesky have interest if I dropped a local Marty Conlon banking commercial filmed in the Third Ward from the mid 90s? Now, now, don't everyone clog up my notifications at once...

Only the real ones remember that there was an alternate, non-Mad Max version of 2pac's "California Love" music video featuring a remix of the song. Loved the chill party vibe of the beat and video.

Fitting trade since it's gonna take a wizard to finally get Anthony Davis resembling anything close to healthy.

I'm hearing rumors that Giannis is gonna trade Shams, though.

Tired: is Die Hard a Christmas movie?
Wired: is Groundhog Day a time travel movie?

Trying to make Bluesky like 2010 Twitter since 2025.

Ugh. Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of Giannis trade rumors. I can't even...

I feel like we really missed out on the opportunity to see Michael Cera play Beck in a biopic.
