Spent the last week on the side of TikTok putting praise break audio over their kids throwing tantrums.

Today, it has shifted to praise breaks over people watching college football and, let me say, it is GLORIOUS.

Spent summers from 16-21 working at an outdoor/underground tourist attraction in the Texas Hill Country.

It’s home.

I didn’t need to see this today, Chuck.

Don’t understand what happened in a football game?

Me, when bad things happen to Altman and OpenAI

Me, grumbling about a flight delay and changing terminals at my least-favorite airport.

The universe, using a familiar face to shame me:

I was never able to place it, but now I know that Curtis Sliwa is an Unsleeping City NPC and his talking rat assistant is Kugrash

Watching the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with my sons for the first time. I haven’t watched it since I had kids.

Master Splinter’s monologue in the fire made me weep. I knew it would, but goodness it got me.

Someone just posted on TikTok the scene from #Avatar where Toph kicks in the door of a tank then bends the door into armor.

She’s such a perfect character.

My backlog is so long but I might have to pivot to an #ATLA rewatch. Top 10 show for me.

Why did none of you people tell me about Dear Silas?!?

I thought we were friends.

My day job coworkers:
How was your weekend?

Me, lying:
It was fine.

Me, being honest:

It’s probably parasocial as hell, but whatever.

As a PBSKids and library patent, @mychal3ts.bsky.social stepping into this role has me EMOTIONAL. A Black man with his natural hair and tattoos being unapologetically himself is HUGE.

Warmth. Enthusiasm. Care. Learning.

The masculine ideal, imo.

Why do I have to wear a nice shirt just to order tenders and mac and cheese from the kid’s menu, even though we’re at a Japanese restaurant?

Forge Domain Cleric is probably the answer @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social

Normal cleric healing plus Searing Smite and Wall of Fire

The anti-Ted Cruz being a lesbian with a Black girlfriend (not to reduce Azzi Fudd to just that) is wonderful.

I would argue, that based on many of the stories about Jesus in the Christian texts, this is “evangelical” in a truer sense than what gets branded as Evangelical today.

As a nerd, I’m mad I will never come up with a joke this good.

This is roast is so simple and mean, it really stretches the definition of non-violent resistance.

But I’m here for it.

This is the kind of crap I’m talking about. I’m going to have a protein shake and some leftover chicken for lunch.

Meanwhile, the child who tells me he doesn’t like rice is going to DEVOUR this for lunch.

If I won the lottery, I wouldn’t tell anyone but there would be signs.

I’m not exaggerating that this is bordering on a war crime.
