I like flying fake planes and skiing real mountains. Also like retro games and FPGAs. Work on computer stuff for a company that does money stuff. Boston, you’re my home. #YNWA

I really wish sites selling stuff on the Internet understood I’d rather get my balls caught in a blender than ever receiving another email from them.

Just want to add that reproductive rights are an economic issue and for many women a survival issue. If you can't control your body, you can't control your life.

Trent Reznor. I worked at shows in the early 2000s, and sat at the same table for dinner in the cramped Orpheum backstage before a NIN show. Just the kindest guy who made sure to thank each of the staff in person.

Who is the nicest or kindest celebrity you ever met? For me it was Wilson Cruz—I met him at a comic book convention and he was incredibly sweet and humored me while I raved about his various important roles and then he gave me a big hug. He smelled amazing, too.

When I was a movie obsessed kid, I thought it would be great to be like Robert Redford. When, later in life, he became a friend, I discovered I was right…but for reasons I could not have imagined. www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/why...
Why Robert Redford’s Legacy Is So Important to Remember in This Moment
He believed the world could be changed, and he worked tirelessly throughout his life to make it so.

No company hates its players more than Nintendo
RTA in Japan, a well-established charity speedrunning contest, has removed Nintendo games from its upcoming Summer 2025 event because they suddenly received a warning from Nintendo about using games without permission.

This is the objectively right answer, and if you eat meat and don't stock Maldon or some other flaky salt you should. It is delightful sprinkled on meat for serving.
I also have pretzel salt in the pantry because soft pretzels whip ass and just aren't right with any other kind of salt.

Every kitchen should have Diamond Kosher Salt, impossibly-cheap iodized salt for putting in pasta water and such, and some kind of weird, flaky salt that's for when you're feeling fancy and pretty much nothing else.

I grew up watching Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers, and CPB going away is gutting. Every good thing our government does is just being stripped for parts.
Fred Rogers was a real one though - truly the best of us.

With news that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down due to Trump’s meddling, it’s worth watching Mr. Rogers testifying to the Senate about the real value of what we’ve all lost.

Saw Drive-By Truckers, Deer Tick, and Thelma and the Sleaze tonight in the woods of western MA. It was nearly 100° before the sun went down, but what a show.
Shit's fucked these days, but seeing live music with good people is a pretty decent temporary salve.

I was in the foster care system, probation, the works, once upon a time. It was a very powerless existence and it felt like the only option I had was to be angry.
the US profoundly needs a children's rights movement. children are not property... they deserve opportunity and learning and autonomy and security.... and our country just does not acknowledge this

Mother Earth is trying to kill us, and her primary long-term weapon is gravity. If it is between you and the Earth, get the best version of it you can. Shoes, mattress, pillow, tires, chair are the big ones. The sooner you take this advice the longer you will go before you realize how good it is.
