A page from a 2014 bible coloring book. The character looks suspiciously like The Edge playing a guitar.

*(Eddie Vedder and Lebron lookalikes show up in the other bible stories 🤫)

Looked up “Dutch Angle” and noticed that the the search page is tilted at a subtle angle. Well played, google.

My copies made it to the Philippines. Ten days to go until the book release of MY LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK ABOUT FORMULA ONE on Sept. 1.

My third (!) Little Golden Book. I love that all three are about sports. Written by Stephanie Mulligan.

“Once” is a truthful gem. I always found Glen Hansard’s music so achingly peaceful and he seemed like a genuinely good dude.

56 is way too young.

Needs to be said, the opening theme song to The Vampire Lestat is a bop.

Rewatching “The Game” for the first time since the 90s.

Did I just see a bloodied and filthy Michael Douglas just casually hitchhike from Mexico to a US diner with no cash or any ID?

AUTHORS! Do not, without the explicit permission of an illustrator, upload the art from your book into any AI system to create content like trailers for your book. I cannot believe this needs to be said AND HERE WE ARE.

I’m afraid to watch it because I already know Argos’ scene will break me.

The Artemis II crew being roughly my age (shout out Gen X kids) made them relatable. Like me, they may have also imagined flying the “fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy,” or helped a lost alien phone home.

Until last week, no manned lunar mission was attempted in my lifetime. It finally happened.

The friendliest good boy, Autumn, has now taken his charm and good looks to that dog park in the sky.
May you have infinite tennis balls to catch, all the squeaky toys to mangle, and the best ponds to swim in.

Thank you for 13 wonderful years, my boy 🤍

They’re too small for anyone to see, but I drew a few personal easter eggs on that van door.

My favorite Seahawks moment was in 2013 when Doug Baldwin ran into the field with the Philippine WAR flag because he didn’t know that it was upside down — and accidentally making the image look cooler.

The red on top means a state of war.
