I used to insist on (trying) to shop local and on location, until it sunk in that most big box stores had themselves given up and ceeded sales to Amazon. But you can still order from alternatives online to get better vetted and higher quality goods. Find an actual person to buy stuff from?

Reacting to reading an article complaining about hobbies being infested with AI on sites like Amazon and Etsy. So, like, try a brick & mortar store staffed by experienced hands? If you're a vegetarian, why check in with a slaughterhouse for meal options? I see a future in human curation.

I've always referred to myself as a luddite, because I'm a late adopter suspicious of new technology, especially as it relates to undermining human employment. I think it's inaccurate regarding my turn toward the analog to avoid the AI slop pile entirely. Is there a better term for that?

People might start to believe there is such a thing as journalism in the U.S. if a "reporter" ever found the spine to ask a follow-up question, or remotely pressed on the first, like the Brits do. Speaking to no one in particular (everyone at any given Mike Johnson press conference.)

Love it when the grocer sends me a salad delivered late in the evening on the day of expiration. Totally fair and ethical.

There's a Drop a Cartoon deal going on, so I wanted to mention a random one that auto-played on Tubi over the weekend. Mythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend, which adapted Greco-Roman myths for 2 brief seasons. Thought it was an obscure foreign deal, but it ran on CBS in the late '90s. Decent.

Awkwardly acknowledging the twentieth anniversary of the one time each that I watched the two Kill Bill movies theatrically and never again because of the bloat and overall "eh."

Costco's Kirkland Egg Nog Wine Cocktail is poison to me. Watery, bland, & mixes poorly with actual nog. No buzz at all-- just headache, nausea, and heartburn lasting all night. And I tried it several times, feeling gross each time, so it wasn't anything else in my diet. Never again.

That first panel is NOT a commentary on our current political and socio economical status here in the US. This was published in 1986. I repeat, this is NOT a comment on a contemporary situation…
(Psst! It’s a totally valid statement of the current times)
