Just learned I have a cousin named Lori Strode, and for once I'm glad Halloween is still eleven months away.

Conscription is why my ancestors came to America—right before the pope was declared infallible—though some had to wait out our own Civil War first.
German parliament approves a plan to attract more military recruits that stops short of reintroducing conscription.

Big #GranTurismo7 update just dropped, so this morning would be a good one to hit my YouTube for those latest tracks and cars as I test them.

I make videos professionally, but this channel is NOT that, just fun personal stuff. I'm also a musician and published author, so expect some clips about those pursuits as well.

I've been listening to The Beatles for nearly five decades, and just now got the homophonic joke of their company name Apple Corps.

I hear Spotify is raising prices. If its artists were fairly compensated, such a service should be prohibitively expensive to the average consumer.

This got me thinking….how do we as a society normalize pumpkin pie as a breakfast option at restaurants year round? Who will be the change we want to see in the world?
It turns out Mina and I have identical pie takes (literally had home made pumpkin pie for breakfast this morning before kids woke up).
So my pie take is there are no bad pies, but some pies have to be eaten a certain way:
1. Pecan: Always good
2. Fruit: Must be homemade. Otherwise bad.
3. Pumpkin: Best eaten cold at 7 am standing over a sink before everyone wakes up

I love waking up in the morning to see it's 11:00 last night.

Matt Judon's sleeves could result in fines from both the NFL and FAA, for sending them to commercial prematurely and diverting air traffic.
I'm so glad I first tested that joke on my colorblind friend.

His greatness on the field is obvious, but as a teammate, Mahomes has gotten State Farm commercials for at least four other Chiefs. And brought Whataburger to our 'hoods.
