Today, my oldest stiff armed a kid to the ground in his flag football game and converted a first down. It’s illegal in flag, and he got flagged for it. He kept apologizing to me.

It took both coaches to convince him that in tackle football, it would have been the play of the day.

I’ve been told by reputable sources that losing to Florida is inexcusable.

I know October 31 is the traditional date, but I’d be willing to entertain having it be the last Friday of October.

Friday night Halloween is objectively peak.

Been away for work for three days.

Was only supposed to be two, but New York was a weather nightmare yesterday.

Considering letting the oldest stay up after trick or treating to watch Ghostbusters for the first time while I send my wife upstairs to be alone.

Will report back.

I grew up Methodist and was down the path of ordination in the Methodist church.

John Wesley (and Francis Asbury in America specifically) would be AGHAST at what is happening currently.

Matthew 25:31-46 is the core of my politics.

Jesus said we will be judged by how we treat the homeless, the hungry, the needy, migrants, and the sick.

The American Evangelical sect has forgotten that. I’m convicted that 2025 Jesus would flip merch tables and coffee bars in converted strip malls.

I think I just passed Paul Dano at the airport.

I wasn’t sure because he wasn’t being mercilessly beaten by someone.

Same, but I still don’t want him or kinne at Baylor.

Will rapidly become a pain in the butt for CenTex recruiting.

UTSA is beating the brakes off of Tulane.

I did not expect this.

50% of the dudes my kids call Uncle are unrelated to them in any way.

I can’t believe they’re disqualified for public office before they’ve finished elementary school.

Anyone who has anything negative to say is just jealous that they can’t get fits off while also being a sicko.

The sequin jacket with the headset and notebook? Sensational.

We say β€œmade the right one famous” too easily, but Ms Rachel really fits the bill.

When she said β€œit shouldn’t be controversial or complicated to say that no kid should die,” I was honestly sad my kids aged out of her content.

I might just run some in the background to get her ad revenue up.

β€œIf your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out.”

I’ve always believed instead this literal virtue signaling, more of these Christian influencers should be pulling out eyeballs.

Man.

It’s October 25 and 75 degrees in Texas.

I need Home Depot to get out of here with that Christmas commercial.

I called myself a John Mateer truther this summer.

I called him the Blake Bell of Kyler Murrays.

Caught up on #JujutsuKaisen

Shibuya Incident might be on my Mt. Rushmore.

It’s almost like the mangaka was testing if their magic system of β€œsadness, trauma, anxiety, and bad feelings can physically manifest in the real world” could actually happen.

Someone just posted on TikTok the scene from #Avatar where Toph kicks in the door of a tank then bends the door into armor.

She’s such a perfect character.

My backlog is so long but I might have to pivot to an #ATLA rewatch. Top 10 show for me.

You know why they kept storming the beach at Normandy? Because deep down they all knew one thing: fascism always breaks.

It’s fragile. It’s paper thin. It’s the weak putting up a facade of strength.

I think of it as entertainment dollars per hour.

If I buy a 40 hour game for $70, I’m paying $1.75/hour. If I go see the Chainsaw Man movie tonight, it’s $6.85/hour.

I feel the same way about microtransactions. If I’m pouring dozens of hours into a F2P, then it makes sense to pay something.
