Hey, Freddy seems like a solid dude who recognized the weirdness of a former employer.

The song Ocean is one of the greatest single song-writing efforts of the 1990s.

The cover of the album Harmacy by Sebadoh.

Mine actually is Krull.
As a kid I fell in love with the (what I later learned was) cinematography.

I had a coloring book.

Now I own a copy of the board game and a small movie poster , the small ones the theaters used to use.

Kidding was SUCH an amazing show.

My cultural awakening: A Jim Carrey series made me embrace baldness – and shave my head on the spot

I was a mess of insecurities, trying to hide thinning hair, worried I was ageing too quickly. Then a scene in the TV show Kidding changed everything

I've been using "dude" as a gender-neutral term for about... Well, more than two decades now.

Was I not supposed to?

✨chipzel @chipzel.bsky.social · 3d

after long debate over "guys" it is beautiful to see "bro" and "girl" become genderless expressions

I'm so old, I remember when I didn't use Bluesky for doomscrolling.

Do you remember when Bluesky was fun?

I believe in the Oxford comma, and two spaces after a period. My writing will continue to use both. You, however, are free to do you.

And with it being the Aughts, YouTube and social media hasn't taken off yet.

I agree with your initial point: he was ahead of his time. It's interesting to see with hindsight how things play out.

Like, how Chris Kanyon had been ahead of his time. Y'know... The What-Ifs of pro wrestling.

Being Black and British, he was not likely to catch on in post-9/11 USA as it was.

For a long time, Jody Fleisch was the compiler of a text-based pro wrestling booking simulator's real-world mod. He altered the file to include the big promotion's wrestlers but also thousands of indie wrestlers, over many years and iterations.

He's the reason for years I knew people outside of WWE

I wanted to love these, as it's two of my favorite things, but the aftertaste was very acidic and they gave me wicked heartburn after five or six pieces. Great idea, terrible execution.

Honestly I wouldn't trust 988 now. Can people still trust 741-741?

Rhinan Laville @rhinanlaville.bsky.social · 3d

Is 741-741 still operational?

Is 988 open during the shutdown?

My wife and I watched Tomie and wondered why it was so recommended. We thought it was mid.
We enjoyed Audition a lot.
And Jyukai from 2004.
