This was so lovely. I know I'm a sucker for a personal story with an interesting framing, but this seems like something my memoirs students would really appreciate

Long ago, I was gonna see The Black Keys at Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, NC. It's a smaller venue; the stage itself is only a few feet off the ground. Anyway, I drove 40 min there, parked, and handed the dude my printed ticket (I know, I know). He takes one look at it and goes, "This was last night."

How about this? Best concerts that you ALMOST got to see but DIDN’T. Include reasons if you like: Rolling Stones (play rehearsal) Johnny Cash (I dallied) R.E.M. (play performance) Nirvana (canceled, college declined to pay requested $500 appearance fee)

MAHA doctors be like, “Technically, we’re all ‘bleeding internally.’”

Rabies is 100% fatal if untreated. Please help spread the word about the exposure at the Farm Adventures mobile petting zoo in North Carolina. The vaccine is incredibly effective and will save your life. Also…. Rabies at a petting zoo!?!? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

to have your men eaten on one island may be regarded as a misfortune; to have them eaten on two looks like carelessness.

Louie Stowell@louiestowell.bsky.social · 4w ago

Has anyone considers that Odysseus's problem is that his men are just too delicious. Yes, he angered the gods, but so many of them getting eaten cant be a coincidence.

(Avril Lavigne voice) why’d you have to go and make wings so complicated

"amazon prime hosted blade runner tv adaptation" was designed in a lab to annoy me but unfortunately "starring michelle yeoh and hunter schaefer & directed by the shining girls showrunner" was designed in a better, smarter lab to appeal to me so it comes out ahead by a lot

Wordle never felt much like a game to me, but I've been enjoying Clues by Sam lately 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟨🟠🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 cluesbysam.com

Clues by Sam

A daily logic puzzle where you deduce who is a criminal!

my visual novel with a protagonist slowly recovering his memories, piecing together he's a simulation but it's largely because he knows that while third wave ska was popular in the 90s, it was not as popular as he is currently experiencing it

I forgot that it was #InternationalNonBinaryPeoplesDay yesterday. I love being non-binary. I love embracing gender fluidity. And this year, I've been very lucky to write two short comics about non-binary heroes fighting for what's right: STAR TREK CELEBRATIONS and OVERWATCH: DEEP-SEA DECEPTION!

This book series blew me away. I'm so excited about the mere idea of this game that I gushed to my students about it.

the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims

Now watching the sequel, Ready or Not: Here I Come (I know, I know) I love that it has the feel of a Benoit Blanc movie, cast of idiosyncratic characters and a bunch of stylish buildings. I also love the Elijah Wood is in another horror/thriller role

Me: (rewatching Ready or Not but not knowing the names of actors) "That's--that's homey from Jennifer's Body!" Dear reader, it was Adam Brody
