Mason Alexander Park performs 'I Don't Care Much' | Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club YouTube video by Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club

It's probably a healthy and normal sign that I can't stop listening to this on repeat, right?

I should probably finish that someday. I think I tapped out when there were footnotes inserted into the text in boxes that went a different direction from the rest of the page? I dunno, that book has terrible vibes (positive)

Okay, I just saw a really impressive community theatre production if Cabaret. On the way out, I heard someone say that he didn't get what the message was and ran with the sarcastic but, but later I heard him sincerely ask 'Was that some French in there?' so I think he was just... Like That.

I remember quite early in knowing you Firefly came up and you said something like 'Eh, I mean, yeah, just having the first season it seems like wasted potential, but I'm from the alternate reality where it drags on for like ten bad seasons. You're really better off this way.'

Mostly I love living in Seattle. But when it's clear enough for sun to get in my eyes all day and then the signature clouds roll in just in time to prevent me from viewing a lunar eclipse...

Photo of a messy, broken roll cake. Spice cake with cream cheese frosting. Sloppy letters in black frosting on top read 'HOUSE', surrounded by lit candles in multiple shades of blue.

Not unpacked enough to find my cake pans, but I wanted to make a housewarming cake.

I'm pretty sure he genuinely thought he and his bestie were co-conspirators and there would have been nothing recorded about him, because the point was to get kompromat on the marks. He couldn't possibly have been a mark in his own mind.

I've never interacted with a sphinx cat in person. They always seem like they have such dignity and gravitas compared to their hairy brethren. I assume that impression is probably stronger in still images than real life.

This is why I like internet cat pictures, same hat. Gotta enjoy fur gremlins vicariously.

Well, that's good too.
I'm maybe more of a fan of cat pics than car pics, but to each their own.

I saw K-PAX in theaters and left genuinely horrified and outraged that I could never have those two hours back.

I actually found it a good conversation starter, but that might just be because I'd rather have conversation with the kindz of people who see that and go 'Oooo, neat!'

I was just thinking about The Cremation of Sam McGee the other day. Pretty sure I found it in a middle school English textbook, in a section we weren't assigned, and read it for fun, because that was the kind of kid I was. Has been imprinted deep in my psyche ever since.

The costume department has to be congratulated for achieving that effect with the glasses, but make up really did you dirty on styling your beard like that.

I have only ever watched one episode of The Expanse because my ex told me not to start it before bed or I wouldn't be able to stop at one, and fuck that guy to the moon and back.

A photo of two fancy black machines for dispensing hot or cold water and ice. One of them has a piece of paper taped to it that says 'out of service'. That machine's overflow tray is covered in a layer of ice cubes. The ground in front of the machine has a mound of ice cubes melting into a puddle in the cheap carpet. Someone familiar enough with the machines might note that the 'out of service' sign has been placed over the top of the proximity sensor for triggering the ice dispenser.

These water machines have been fighting for their lives for months, but this is the most visually poetic I think their struggle can get.

But Jareth is a banished Seelie royal. He clearly is not ruling the goblins because he likes them or wants to be there. Whatever he's being punished for, he probably had some of his other powers curtailed as part of his sentence.

Apparently trending red pointy hats with tassels to be made and worn as signs of resistance to Nazis kept coming up and the comments kept getting contentious.
All sympathy to the mods who burnt out, but learning that was the push I needed to dig some red out of my stash and get to work. Fuck Nazis.

Desert Bus 2026 launches October 23rd! That's the post. Ok, that's not the whole story, but let's start with the shortest version: Magic Con Atlanta was announced for the same weekend we've been penciling as a start point for the last cou...

Despite the very funny first line here, we have, in fact, more info about #db2026 available on the blog now.

I kind of assumed that since the guest list changed so many times he'd been redoing cards for weeks and wound up with a combination of hand cramps/stress injury and that thing where you say or read a word too many times and it stops being language but applied to the entire English alphabet.

Man, there are a lot of potential complaints to lodge against Season 9 of The X-Files but the most persistently upsetting thing is the sound mixing. Why are we getting so intimately familiar with the sounds of everyone's shoes?

I'm still holding out for my long shot that a conviction gets forced through, then immediately over turned after the actual Claims Adjuster strikes again, proving his innocence in the most embarrassing way for the system.

So you... Need a manic pixie dream girl to make your life interesting? But she also has to be moving to a small town for a new life... I think I'm crossing my tropes here because all that's coming to mind is that now you need to be your girlfriend's cover so can she retire from organized crime.
