Well once I owned about 120 punch cards it only seemed natural to build a public catalogue and archive of them. You and my psychologist can argue about what diagnosis specifically I’m missing…

Well we all hate a jammed printer… but imagine if you plane crashed, in part, because of one. NTSB says it nearly happened in August 2023:

There are two at my regular lunch spot in the park, I think I’ve fed them enough that they now trust me.

Bringing the Reitman’s back into the fold with Gil Kenan managed to capture of the magic of the original movies. I had a blast watching them, and if you abandoned the franchise in 2016, it’s well worth returning. After all, BUSTIN’ MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD

I also appreciate the solid filmmaking that went into these films, awesome writing, great sets and props with good balance of practical and CGI special effects. They so easily could have gone full-Marvel and ruined some of the charm of the franchise.

Watched Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire this weekend. Was pleasantly surprised at how the original-universe franchise managed to recreate the high stakes family fun and comedy of the original two movies - particularly given the 2016 reboot was so bad.

What kinda 'welfare checks' you reckon this vigilante in my neighbourhood's crime group is carrying out at 4:30am?
A screenshot of a Facebook post in a redacted Crime Alerts group. The post reads "Patrols pimlico, all those activ [sic] areas,Gladstone,St[sic] ect,[sic] both servos, welfare checks, Mysterton..". It shows three photos, one including an unidentifiable weapon in the passengers seat of a car. Other photos are of neighbourhood streets.

Investigating it a bit more it specifically seems to have gone to a pile of email addresses that were breached in an OpenSea data breach which leaked emails between 2022 and 2024.

I’ve used the phrase “homosexual audacity” so much lately I’m beginning to believe it’s a real thing that gives me the ability to do whatever I put my mind to…

I’ve somehow lost so many pairs of socks recently I’m down to only some pairs of @microsoft promo socks. So I guess I’m repping Microsoft today.
