@gen5notpkmn.bsky.social Are you doing any panels at SacAnime this time?

I saw my first Spirit Halloween sign in the way to work this morning. This is a good thing.

I am on the third episode of the most recent series of White Lotus, and I do not understand how Chelsea and Rick got together. She is emotionally needy and he seems completely incapable of dealing with someone else’s needs He has too many of his own issues.

Oh #LEGO….

Seen in the wild.

I just found out that none of my coworkers know what a snipe hunt is.

I finally figured out who Karoline Leavitt reminds me of: Blair from “The Facts of Life”.

It is raining, and it smells like the sheep area of the Big Barn at the state fair.

Weird coincidences this week: Both the most recent episodes of Retroist Podcast and Oddity Archive were about The Monkees. The song “The Happy Wanderer” appeared in 2 different shows I happened to watch on the same day.

Didn’t Vienna Sausages used to come packed in jelly, not broth?

You’ll never break me down ‘Cause you can’t break what’s broken You’ll never break me down ‘Cause, baby, you can’t break what’s broken

Have you ever just really wanted to take your shoes off? Like, your depression, anxiety, and weariness would reduce by a good 50% if you could just take off your shoes?

Take pleasure in the small things while you still can.

For years I thought that “The Deep State” was some shadowy cabal of billionaires and power brokers. That it is just some civil servant trying to make sure Social Security checks go out on time is a bit disappointing.

I was surprised to go into a Barnes and Noble tonight and find they did not have any displays for Black History Month. There were like a dozen tables displays with things for cooking, Valentines, games, puzzles, LEGO, but no BLH. Is this all BN stores, or am I just in too regressive an area?

“For Decorative Use only” What non-decorative use could I possibly have for a giant fake sand dollar?

A bit of good news: I finally have been able to find a shop that stocks Red Leicester! I have literally been looking for years for a shop that stocks it locally.

Have Philomena Cunk and Alan Partridge ever done a show together? I would like to see that.

Views from the queue. #SacAnime

It’s a new year. Here’s hoping for the best.

Buddy never quite got over the passing of Papa Elf. I miss him too, pal.

You might find some superficial damage to the box, but the chocolate’s perfectly edible.

Hey Starbucks, can you please switch back to cups that do not begin to disintegrate the moment hot liquid touches them? I much prefer my coffee in my stomach than leaked into my cup holder, in my desk, or all over my body when the lid pops up from simply picking the cup up.

I have almost finished watching my top 10 holiday films. X The Nightmare Before Christmas A Christmas Story (waiting for TBS marathon) X National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation The Ref (disc is not easy to get to) X Tokyo Godfathers X Violent Night X Die Hard X Gremlins X Mixed Nuts X Scrooged

Watched “Red One”, and it was not quite what I was expecting. It is basically holiday movie done in the style of an MCU film. It was certainly enjoyable, and I would watch it again next year, but nothing in my top ten is threatened this year.

Don’t come rollin’ up at 10:00, we open at 10:02.

YouTube has started suggesting pre-written responses for me to make when people comment on my videos, and I find them kind of disturbing. There is nothing objectively wrong with the comments, I just find them unsettling.

I don’t get people getting upset about “Die Hard” being a holiday movie while having no issue with “It’s A Wonderful Life” being one.

Why is the octopus winter and the cat summer?

My top ten holiday films in no particular order: 1. The Nightmare Before Christmas 2. A Christmas Story 3. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation 4. The Ref 5. Tokyo Godfathers 6. Violent Night 7. Die Hard 8. Gremlins 9. Mixed Nuts 10. Scrooged

Why does LEGO not make a kit of their Thanksgiving Day Parade? I know that I would buy it.

Here come the grannies! That was the best part of the parade.

Why do people pay extra money to have their food served in a bread bowl, and then leave the bread bowl behind uneaten?

I am so far failing miserably in my attempt to post something here daily. I have a video coming out today where I try to decorate one of those Mini Verse Make It Holiday Christmas Trees. I honestly think they look okay at the end.

I miss Mr. Rogers. America could use a Mr. Rogers right about now.

What if we’re born with our consciousness from our last life intact, but the trauma being in a body that cannot be controlled right causes us to forget everything before our body matures enough to talk?

I am tired. That is all.

Hello, potato! My first post here. Just here to watch my homeland burn for as long as I am able.
