since announcements are in vogue:
I'm spending the next two weeks in the Pacific Northwest!
I'm off to Seattle on Thursday (10/9) and then Portland the following Thursday (16). Yes, I will be at PRGE!

Pretty sure we're just another unhinged tariff or two away from the bulk of American tourists coming to Japan not for anime or history or Pokemon trading card shops but because you can still buy a pack of eggs for less than $2 and the same western fast food meals as over there for $6 to $10.

the Bajoran version of the Bechdel test is “do two named women talk to each other about something other than murder” and I love “Deep Space Nine” because it fails almost every episode

Now, more than ever, you have to be a weird little pervert who makes art of questionable quality. You need to be driven crazy by the flesh. Because, as we all learned from Cronenberg's The Fly, the computers are not made crazy by the flesh. They can't do it like us.

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.
