It's time to light the candles.
It's time to chant the rites.
It's time to summon Satan
On the Muppet Show tonight!

As a kid, I was the one who had to handle the AAA TripTik's. I was the official navigator!

My wife and I have taken to building legos together regularly. (Started it on Valentine's Day, when I bought a "botanicals" kit that was a pair of long-stemmed red roses.)

this is how socialism wins: everyone agrees it's not as bad as cuomo

"Sliwa supporters in the room decried socialism but couldn’t muster as much hate for Mamdani as they have for Cuomo."

My night with Sliwa superfans

At the Republican watch party, there was one point of political agreement: Andrew Cuomo sucks.

“A real, genuine, hope chest, carved by Oberon’s own hand from the four sacred woods of Faerie—oak and ash for bracing and balance, rowan and thorn for pattern and protection.”

“Rosemary and Rue” by Seanan McGuire

LEGO build by me. Inspiration by @seananmcguire.bsky.social's wonderful universe

A LEGO model of a decorative hope chest with ornate gold and dark red accents, set atop a white, block-built base.
The chest is rectangular with tan brick detailing, a gold filigree design, and dark red accent pieces.
Small red rose-like petal LEGO pieces are scattered on the base.
The scene is lit, with a wooden floor and burgundy cloth backdrop.

There are two row of three disassembled LEGO pieces, all rectangular and square structures, that can be stacked and assembled easily with each other.
Top row consists of the two parts of the hope chest and the stand base.
The chest is split into two parts - base and a lid, with visible nougat bottom of the chest.
On the right to it sits the stand base with white brick and tiles, and some rounded elements in the corners.
A small round tile with the letter 'z' marks the artist signature, and two dark yellow bricks mark where the stand backbone should be attached.
The bottow row - left to rigth - shows the stand pillar backbone, the stand pillar external ornaments, and the stand top.
The stand backbone/hidden structure, consisting of dark yellow and light lavender bricks in a masonry pattern, finished with white tiles.
The stand external sleeve of the pillar is featuring solid white bricks - both with brick and smooth external look - ordered in an interchanging order, creating the illusion of a weaving of the structure.
Some of the bricks are covered with weaving-like continuiosly going toward top right pattern of golden leaves.
The stand top is fully white, covered with white tiles, some of them slightly raised to fix the position of the hope chest on the stand.

LEGO model of a beige and brown, adorned with gold floral and ornate handles hope chest.
It sits atop a matching white platform, and the platform sitting on top of a square white pillar decorated with gold floral embellishments.
Below the main image are four perspective views of the treasure chest and its pillar.

Nine-panel collage showcasing a detailed model of a hope chest, built entirely from LEGO bricks.
The chest is primarily beige and brown, adorned with gold floral and ornate handles.
It sits atop a white brick and tiles pedestal, also made of LEGOs, with several red rose-like petal pieces scattered on the surface and burgundy fabric in the background.
Different angles depict the chest's details, including its open and closed states, emphasizing the craftsmanship and design.

I grew up on Staten Island. This checks out.

Apparently all you needed to do to predict the NYC election results was read that one N.K. Jemisin novel.

Do please. Cancer is fucking awful, and the worse it gets, the more awful it gets. I think I still show up on airport radiation detectors.

I mean, it doesn't help *me* much. You're prepared for everything in your body to fail, right? I'm 57.

By the way, next time you get blood work done, make sure to get a PSA test, and start doing so regularly. Simple, cheap test. If I had started at your age, we'd have caught my cancer earlier.

Think about these contrasting storylines of the last week:

Zohran Mandani is the face and future of young Dems

Nick Fuentes is the face and future of young Republicans

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

AOC: We know that Donald Trump has not only been convicted of committing crimes, but that the supreme court has given him a blank check to continue to commit crimes while in office. So we cannot underestimate the threat and the danger of this moment. But we cannot respond to that with cowardice.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.
