Every Thanksgiving the main thing on my mind is how incredibly good Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is. I usually roll my eyes when people describe art as “mean-spirited,” but PTaA is the whatever the opposite of that is. A profoundly human movie.

To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:

- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever

Me, starting the new season of Stranger Things: man, remember when this show was about high school students?

Me, five minutes later: oh, they’re…. They’re still supposed to be high school students, huh? Huh.

Denis Villenueve’s GOD EMPEROR OF DUNE.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

Early Soundgarden doesn’t make a ton of sense in the context of the music that made Soundgarden super famous, but if you listen to it alongside Green River and Skin Yard you’re like “oh yeah, it absolutely makes sense for that band to sound like that.”

Gluey Porch Treatments is the first really good grunge record, I think. The first Green River album is fine, the first Skin Yard and Screaming Trees albums, eh, I don’t know. But Melvins just appeared, fully formed.

Oh I thank god I can’t take another “BLACK FRIDAY SALE ON NOW” push notification that would normally just get buried in my promotions folder.
since the "google is now training gemini on your email contents" thing keeps bumping around here: it's _not happening_. I say this not to defend google but because I know a lot of people that have broken their filtering and made their lives much more annoying from sheer misinformation.
The malwarebytes Google opting-your-emails-into-ai-training thing is not true. The post is based on one bad tweet.

I know anti-tech lamenting is a Bluesky core principle, but please use the same judgement you would for any other clickbait.

Someone snuck this kid a couple espressos at like 5am that’s the only explanation.

My four year old is obsessed with Rage Against the Machine and I don’t want to listen to that band anymore. He likes a handful of Soundgarden songs, one Nirvana song, and one Mudhoney song, so I’m trying to cultivate that a little bit. Very difficult to make a four year old branch out.

Every generation has their own dumb slang and my generation even has our own dumb slang number so I didn’t really think 6 7 was that lame or whatever until I learned just now that it’s about Lamelo Ball so nevermind it totally sucks and the kids are lost.

Because my son is 4 he asks me at least twice a day what my favorite animal is. I told him Godzilla. “But he’s a bad guy!” “Not always!”

My four year old has gotten into asking what peoples’ middle and last names are and it’s got me thinking how weird middle names are. Like what’s the point? Here’s a backup name in case you don’t like your first name.

I was so excited to eat leftover Chinese food for dinner but I’m extraordinarily tired today and if I eat fried sauced chicken I will be too tired to give these children baths before bedtime, so I had a spinach and mozzarella salad instead. Where is my Good Dad Award please

It was a CHRISTIAN ska band? That’s a fun new wrinkle.
Every day someone new learns that Oscar Isaac was in a late 90s Christian ska band. Who will today’s person be.

Six different guys have played the character, I promise you it does not matter.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."
