My attempt at ‘movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs.’

Apologies @baddestmamajama.bsky.social for tagging you here… but I’m currently where the real Tweedle Dee was moored - I felt I had to!

This is Charlie. Charlie is not our cat. He is a very handsome skinny boi, however, and he loves to come visit us and hang out on our front porch. 4-5 times a day (sometimes more).

First: If you haven't seen What Lies West, please make a point of doing so. It's fantastic.

Second: Nothing I know of was set specifically where I grew up in NJ, but this is one of my all-time favorites, was set in my home state, and the breakfast scene (IYKYK) still gets me every time I see it.

Pixel is 14 years old and the sweetest soul this earth has ever known.

I got a lot of real and valuable work done this week, but I know for sure that my top accomplishment was sending a serious Slack thread right off the rails by using a favorite reaction emoji and then just watching a deep discussion of "Big Enough" spiral and grow in the most wonderful way.

I am so with you on this.

In the grand scheme of things -- and especially right now -- this is a tiny, utterly insignificant thing, but I have to say it does feel good to have finally completed the tutorial.

Not sure I'm the real audience for this, but why not: Alright, what's your #comicsdna? The comics and books that were formative to you. At least four, more if you're nasty.

Excellent opportunity to share the best forbidden whiteboard photo from my time in that office. The very first concept art of Praksis from Beyond Light, courtesy of the excellent Jami Jeffcoat.

Yeah, this tracks.

Game devs, post your first shipped game and your latest shipped game.

I feel this. Here is a picture of Pixel scream-yawning to distract and comfort you.

Seeing this on a Slack thread today got me extra ready for a little extended time off to recharge the batteries... 😅

For some reason (seriously I have no idea why), I decided to try to revive my original Zune. Seemed completely dead for a long while, but eventually charged up and it still seems to work perfectly. Figured no better way to test it than with some @thelongestjohns.bsky.social.

Guy rang our doorbell today, going door to door canvassing to ask if people have voted already, but he totally lost his train of thought and instead asked “Are those mushrooms REAL??”

The mushrooms in question:
