The number of emails flooding my inbox (and yours too, I imagine) today is exhausting. I might go out for a cup of coffee today but otherwise every ping makes me less inclined to buy anything.

Shorts time on #MST3KTurkeyDay. It's "The Home Economics Story."

Now playing on #MST3KTurkeyDay, it's STARCRASH with Caroline Munro, Marjoe Gartner, and the Hoff!

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

It is terrible out so I am making some chili. So far I have refrained from touching my eyes after dicing jalapenos, so I got that goin' for me.

This is a great article that reminds me a bit of "A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear," where the people who are why we can't have nice things in society attempt to form their own.

Also introduced me to the word "caitiff," which describes a lot of these assholes.
White-nationalist homestead communities gather the most antisocial people with the most corrosive beliefs—and, somehow, it all goes wrong. Henry Luzzatto writes on past and present miserable experiments in far-right communal living.

In the classic literary piece Elvis is Everywhere author Mojo Nixon posited that Michael J. Fox was the anti-Elvis, the one human lacking even a particle of the Elvis spirit. In this 50-part essay I will explain how Elon Musk not only has no Elvis in him, he creates negative Elvis particles...

Stop making phones thinner with each generation. Nobody wants that.

But sure, blame the people not buying phones for the economy sucking. Same playbook as the oil industry pinning "carbon footprint" on indviduals instead of their own actions.

Rewatch of all #LowerDecks episodes complete, though I have a few with commentary to rewatch again.

Talk about a show that should have had six seasons and a movie, but I still have hope. Not done hearing about Boimler, Mariner, Tendi, Rutherford, T'Lyn and the rest. And more Olly! We need more Olly

Couldn't figure out why I am so tired today, and then I remembered I had several vaccinations yesterday.

D'oh! And I was even there when it happened!

Anyway this Saturday nap was brought to you by COVID and flu shots. Get yours today!

Well, that was a fun ride while it lasted

There is a new update to #Pikmin4 and I have been inspired to pick it up again.

But i started a new game from scratch because I can't remember half of what is going on. Decor Pikmin are great!
