This was my genuine experience the first time I watched Southland Tales. I was blown away to discover that it was pretty much universally loathed. 10/10 movie for me, easily.

Anxiety: Get ready to fight Me: What? Anxiety: idk, just get ready to fight Me: Why are we fighting, and for what reason? Anxiety: Just get ready (This is what my brain has been doing to me all year long, like I’m permanently in fight or flight mode)

People don’t listen to mind expanding music in dimly lit rooms whilst gazing into lava lamps anymore, and I think that’s truly unfortunate.

It’s time for another Mass Effect trilogy full play through (I think my 13th at this point). It just feels like the right time. #SaveMassEffect

Gutted by this news. Not surprised, given ownership changes at EA, but definitely disappointed that BioWare wasn’t sold to another publisher. Whether the games were amazing or simply solid, I loved everything BioWare released. I wish all the best for the team during this time. @bioware.bsky.social

I feel like I’m in season 11 of my life as a TV series, where a good chunk of the main cast has already moved on and the writers are just forcing me to endure all manner of ridiculously stupid events just to keep the show interesting…

Please, I just need a little mood boost to get through this moment right now. I promise I’ll fix my life somewhere between later tonight and before I die…

Reminder: if billionaires can burn through hundreds of millions of dollars on targeted political ads for candidates who oppose new wealth taxation, then they definitely can afford to pay a new wealth tax. #EatTheRich

I think the whole world would be a lot happier if we lived in a whimsical reality where we could express ourselves by breaking into song and dance, and everyone could just join into the act like people do in musicals.

One does wonder how Bela Lugosi might have felt about having a song written about his death. Probably would be thrilled simply to be remembered.

Elon played Mass Effect and fell in love so hard with the janktastic craptacular controls of the Mako that he decided to make a real life car that controls the exact same way. Can’t wait to see videos of dorks flipping their flying Teslas over. #TeslaRoadster @biowareproblems.bsky.social

Pretty much after “…And Justice For All” Metallica became to metal what Green Day is to punk. Might as well be in the pop/rock music category since then.

I’m not an early bird or a night owl. I’m a middle-aged possum playing dead until somebody gently pats my head and tells me “everything’s going to be alright.”

I’m at a point in my life where I don’t need friends who have it all together and want to act like the rest of the herd. I want friends that can tell when everyone and everything is getting on my last nerve and simply replies, “hard same. What do you need, coffee or an alibi?”
