My activities and opinions on this site are my own.
I wondered what my “About You” listed and had completely forgotten that I opted out of all that shit so long ago, I couldn’t tell you how. Sometimes I do a “what are *all* my settings?” on various apps when I’m bored.

If you were hit with a truck I’d forget you even existed about 2 weeks later.

“Before your appointment tomorrow, be sure to drink a lot of water and get a good nights sleep.”

I’m sorry. I’m at an age where I can only do one of those things.

My posts would probably do better if this entire site went offline permanently.
Imagine how much better your posts would do if this website wasn't constantly crashing out and fighting for it's life all the time

My wife got a 15 min interview with Phil during promotion for “Mad God”. She got a dose of his crankiness at the end when he kinda angrily interrupted with
“Why do you think we’re talking about King Kong?”
“Because… we are?”
“No. No. No.”

When done, we checked. He brought up King Kong earlier.
Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse:

Historically some of the most hardcore and decorated US soldiers were wiry guys who at one point couldn’t pass medical because of things like bad eyesight. But they were tenacious, ornery, and epitomized IDGAF. This cosplaying idiot is neutering the military in the name of toxic masculinity.

All I want for the future are ballots that aren’t all old white men, or have Gavin Newsom on them.

Some people aspire to be Batman or Superman, he wanted to be Clayface.

Woke up in a foul mood because my brain decided a severe anxiety-inducing dream was how to wake me up. That plus the insane iphone voicemail UI decision to put the green call button exactly where your ear touches the phone when you listen to it. Shitty mood & accidentally calling people. Great start

I wanted to get into ham radio but I couldn’t afford a Pontiac Fiero.

I’d be surprised if more than 3 people get this joke.

My arms are so bruised up I feel like I need a sticker that says “I’m not a junkie, I just tried to donate blood platelets.”
September 27, 2026 at 2:36 AM
… and I had to reschedule to next week. Apparently my left arm veins decided to play hide-and-seek well enough that I have to go home and heal.
About to settle in for 3 hours to get rid of some of these pesky blood platelets.

First time with this type of donation. It should be interesting.
