Just had a horrifying thought: when the baby is old enough to request filmed entertainment... will I feel compelled to log each viewing on Letterboxd? Seven hundred entries for All Dogs Go To Heaven?

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

I've gotten pretty close with dates on all the shows I've remembered so far, except for one.

I saw The Sweet in San Francisco in either late 1990 or 1991 (I lean toward Aug-Sep 1990). Memory says it was at the I-Beam.

Gig dates for the band are very spotty in that era.

This is my White Whale.
This has sent me down yet another rabbit hole - I already have a spreadsheet for concerts I have tickets for, but not for concerts without tickets.

I was trying to think of the name of the store Charming Charlies, and I came up with Charlie Chinups. This is now my favorite thing.

Until you get an answer or a stroke.
This reporter asks a legitimate, followup question—something the White House press corps doesn’t do all that often.

Trump isn’t used to this, and you can see how it gets under his skin.

Reporters need to do this more often, or at least come to the defense of those who are willing to do it.

Festival of Dark Arts tickets are $126 per person this year, was 100 last year. That is bananapants.

I get it, capitalism, you raise prices until demand equals supply, and then only people with a ton of disposable income can attend. Brilliant.

Ok, and so today a company's recruiter reached out to see if I'd be interested in applying for a position. Which evens out the balance once again. Life is a whole thing.

I contributed to his piece of mind by simply blocking him and not talking to him at all.
This is a real shot/chaser moment.
