I confidently stride below obstacles

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

Dead Man’s Bones? It’s 2009 again!

lauryn hill: lyrically speaking im spiritually conflicted meaning these streets are freaked in their dealings and my rage is through the ceiling how you speak of gangbanging and think you sound appealing wyclef: last week i drank a soda with yoda he asked me what it is i told him its a coca cola

I am seated for JOSEPHINE, which I understand to be a good movie about some very tricky subject matter. Sunday feel bad movie?

iPhone Duo screens are cracking/breaking at the same point in a pretty obvious flaw. Interested to see where this goes www.tomsguide.com/phones/iphon...

My dad left a voicemail doing a Darth Vader impression, but visual voicemail doesn’t communicate bits, so I’m sitting there podcasting watching a very serious: “Dave. I am your father. Search your feelings, you know it to be true” type out across the phone and wondering if Dad is Mad.

mark my words, there are going to be a surprising number of trans adults ten years from now whose coming out story begins with "i saw a conservative political ad"

Airbnb went from a cheap way to crash in a spare bedroom or rent a vacation house for a weekend and turned into "what if hotels openly hated you and acted like they were doing you a favor by letting you give them hundreds of dollars to stay there, and also it's more expensive"

I usually don’t think much about my YouTube subscription, but trying to watch trailers at a friend’s house and getting JUST bullshit political ads. It’s maddening. I’m almost surprised when they only try to get me to sports gamble.

the video game industry was a 40 year long sociological experiment conducted by Harvard University. the study is now complete. thank you for your time

Also listen if you are an archivist fan. Surely those exist. also: Hats off to the Mayans.

When I say the Who’s On First bit is the most damning it is exactly because of this read. I don’t care if she actually understood or not.

Back from vacation with a bunch of ideas about how to pivot into new things, but reasonably shouldn't pivot until December.

At long last, we have created a way for you to take away Nikki's free will, from the classic horror movie "don't take away Nikki's free will"

Love seeing new @sepinwall.bsky.social and new @mattsinger.bsky.social at random local bookshops!

Masters of Puppets

Minimum safe distance from the ocean. I saw WHALEFALL, I know my dad is out there just waiting to swallow me.

Super Bowl commercial(s?) about how good a friend and son I am.

The Academy Museum has a 1999 PC you can look at THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT website. I did this like 25 years ago and got to do it again.

This is a weird period of the year where my film-friends are all starting to see the awards fare, and my non-film friends are getting some of the absolute worst “also ran” shit at the box office.

Welcome back to The STARLOG Podcast for Episode 17! Jordan Can't Outrun His Old Green Lantern Quote - Before giving his opinion on HBO's Lanterns Season 1 on the STARLOG Podcast, Jordan has to reckon with his past. Full episode here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTxp...

Los Angeles coffee shops playing the late Radiohead, makes me realize how much late Radiohead hoodwinked us with weak prog rock with Thom Yorke reverb groaning over it.

Alright! Two new podcasts out. STARLOG podcast episode 17 is out, Fighting in the War Room podcast episode 560 is out. One more from me (Da7e and Neil's Pop Culture Adventure) before I can weekend vacation.

Yay! HULU picked up the new X-FILES to series.

I’m gonna edit so much podcast today

I talked to SYFY Wire about what I felt my Rod Serling bio had to add to the extensive library of Serling scholarship, and how I was able to get so many famous Serling fans to talk to me about him:

Sometimes when I’m not on a @fitwr.bsky.social episode I can still be heard in the music breaks. youtu.be/10hvHGJvp1M?...
