“Everyone hates cameras in smart glasses. But if the camera is contained in a charm you wear around your neck, it shifts the agency. Suddenly, you’re not recording people. It’s just a cute little animated avatar looking out on the world.”

Today I saw the new 4 hour documentary Musk, directed by Alex Gibney. There were too many times to count that a sold out theater burst out laughing at Elon Musk, something he said or did, even sometimes just how he looked. I believe that is his worst nightmare come to life.

Suddenly realized I was missing a few volumes of the Del Rey Oz collection. Rectifying!

Hell of a list!

Most likely to disappear in a puff of smoke

I spent the last three days looking for our pepper shaker, growing more and more convinced that someone broke into our house and stole it for giggles. I just found it, less than an inch from where it was supposed to be but sitting on top of the peanut butter.

Just a vibey little clip of my smoke machine while I figure it out

Dreamed last night I was playing a video game about climate change where you play anthropomorphic animals trying to adapt or migrate to new habitats, animated in 1980s Disney style. And now I'm terribly sad it doesn't exist!

As Ive gotten older, my delusions of grandeur have become bite-sized.

Little Nemo is beautifully done, but “Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend” is astonishing linguistically and psychologically as well. I wish I could post the one about a man whose wife dies after her brain is taken over by a music-hall earworm so powerful that it’s still audible from her corpse.

One way to be a lil bitch is by constantly cleaning up leaves. Like wahhhh help Earth is falling on Earth & it’s messy! Toughen the fuck up

As of today, the CDC has changed (reverted) their Covid guidance to make the vaccine recommended for all people over 18. In addition to being a smart public health move, this recommendation also means insurance must cover it. Read more here: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va... Listen to a breakdown here:

you shouldn't take an iced coffee to a job interview because you shouldn't be trying to get a job. you should be digging an enormous pit or a complex system of tunnels

bad news guys stuff only gets done if you do it

Find what lights you up and then set yourself on fire

If you put a giant knife on the charcuterie board those are sword'oeuvres

high energy hits guaranteed to keep your bus going above 50 mph
