grahams, but mildly scary

every fan of an AL team should be experiencing secondhand shame that this is the best team their league produced. you should all feel like Lord Toranaga when Tadayoshi spoke out of turn at the Council of Regents

Heidi Wong's Halloween costume (instagram) is as the Shimmer from the Annihilation movie, with a purse using my novel. Really clever, looks good affixed to the purse.

The most baffling thing about this World Series is the Martha Stewart GLP-1 ad with Funkytown as its bed music. Funkytown? For a drug?

During my quiet evening contemplation, I begin thinking about the bogus CA and PHP vulnerabilities crises this week. Sure is a great week to be between jobs!

We're all trying to find the guy who did this

Ok I guess we will turn on the heat

Yesterday was my last day at Vizit. I'm taking some time for myself, but I'll announce what's next after Halloween. Spoiler alert: it'll be my first job away from documents/imaging since I was a RIT student employee at ISC

You could explain existentialism to somebody, or you could just have them walk into a CVS where “more than this“ by Roxy Music is playing

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: archive.org/details/tipp...

@lindsayellis.bsky.social Damn you for getting that infernal Kathie Lee cruise jingle wedged in my head for days now.

@flexibits.com Is there something going on with delegation of GCal events on macOS? Suddenly between when I quit work earlier today and when I sat down just now hundreds of invites on other people's calendars showed in in Fantastical. I removed a bunch of them from /syncselect and some went away.
