I was the first Bauser on the Internet.
We started out at a surrealist masquerade. Not sure where we are now. Happy New Year!

My wife @coreyosullivan.com wanted to watch "some old #movies" she hadn't seen yet. We started with "The Stuff," then "The Philadelphia Experiment," and we're #nowWatching #Robocop. How the hell did I marry a woman who's never seen RoboCop!?

I had forgotten about the musical #Detroit Institute of #Arts commercial until I read this story, and then suddenly, I was missing it. So I just made my wife watch BOTH versions on YouTube.

#AI is just replicating what non-artificial intelligences have been doing to each other for years. These chatbots are customized #propaganda machines, making people as crazy just like religion or Fox News can.

Damn, that's a pointed choice of a movie for a memorial. Well played, Harkins Theatres!

Harkins Theatres | The American President - A Rob Reiner Tribute
Comedy-drama about a widowed U.S. President and a lobbyist who fall in love. It's all above-board, but "politics is perception", and sparks fly anyway.

Does Little Marco have a list of woke fonts he can share with the rest of us? I want to make sure I exclusively use those going forward.
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move
Rubio Stages Font Coup: Times New Roman Ousts Calibri
The secretary of state called it a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal department cable seen by Reuters.

First time seeing West Grand #Burlesque since they moved to Northville. @coreyosullivan.com got on stage for a selfie with the cast, because she's so extra.

Illegal dumping has long been a problem on the Superior Township end of Leforge Road, but now it's happening on the #Ypsilanti end. This dishwasher was dumped across the street from Peninsular Park!

The #Ypsilanti Cinemark seemed overwhelmed by the #WickedForGood crowd tonight. At one point, they had to stop people entering the 3D theater while the staff looked for more 3D glasses!

One last #Halloween party, at a "mead tasting room" that might be a converted carwash. WTF, #Ypsilanti?

Maruchan advertising its cheapest #ramen on Facebook the week before #SNAP benefits are cut off. Awkward, to say the least.

This headline might be the greatest example ever of someone thinking their personal and very specific anxieties are newsworthy. It's an almost transcendental instance of #music critic navel-gazing. Even the #Pitchfork editors must be in awe.

"What's in that box?" I wondered when I saw it on the shelf at #Goodwill. The label they put on the box only sorta answered the question.

Took my wife @coreyosullivan.com to the #Ypsilanti #Cryptid Festival tonight. She bought some soap, but I thought the haunted caboose next store was more fun.

My wife @coreyosullivan.com keeping her #spookyseason going by dragging me to the Ann Arbor Oddities Bazaar and @holybones.bsky.social on the same day.

Took @coreyosullivan.com to the Sinner's Ball in Detroit last night. We were hoping for more of a #TheaterBizarre vibe than we got. I think the biggest problem was the audience was a bunch of squares.

The bar closest to the #Ypsilanti #NoKings protest emailed to invite protesters in for a beer. Is pregaming a protest a thing?

My wife was driving us to the #MichRenFest when I saw the smoke column and googled "fire grand blanc mi," expecting a small local news story. We had to pull over 3 times for emergency vehicles to pass us. I don't think many people at the Festival knew what had happened.

Almost an hour-long wait at the #Ypsilanti Meijer today for flu and COVID #vaccines. Nice that the locals ignoring RFK, I guess.
