joshbelville.com | Portland, OR. Author, occasional musician, sometimes actor. I play a lot of D&D, too. My first novel, re:human, comes out 9/28/2026!
My new theory is that Tom Cruise wants to kill himself but can't because the ghost of L Ron Hubbard won't let him, so he keeps making these stunt-heavy films in the hopes that he will die in a crash or something.
Wait. What? Why?
Wow, I have NEVER seen my grad school alma mater's football team in any sort of news ever. Once I saw a video of the team saying their favorite spots in Portland and one guy said "Cheerful Tortoise" and I nearly turned in my masters degree.
Viks go up 21-0‼️ Tyrese Smith gets his second TD on the ground to give Portland State the 21-0 lead at halftime
It's so funny to me that Musk wants Grok to be "vulgar" but isn't actually vulgar himself. Quite possibly the most milquetoast behavior I've seen in my life. "Ummm Grok could you pwease make swears at girl?"
most embarrassing guy of all time

Modern Buddhism should be marketed as "living without having stupid opinions about trivial bullshit all the goddamn time."
Today after many many months/years of putting it off I finally donated all of the parts for the first PC I ever built myself, as well as my first laptop. For some reason my sentimentality makes me miss my dad a lot, which is probably due to crossed brain wires or something. Brains & grief are weird.
Somebody outside just now laughed very loudly and exactly like Nelson from The Simpsons. I approve.

I don't know how to explain it other than Jon Ossoff has this vibe of a very good politician who also looks like he is going to have to apologize for something he did in his 20s.
Peter Cullen was the sole voice that was responsible for generating hype for anime coming to the west. RIP Legend
PETER CULLEN?! WHAT?!

Report: Tim Curry's death to be investigated by suspicious group of eccentrics gathering at his house

The older I get, the more I realize that a lot of people have conditions on the love and affection they give in relationships/friendships, and that some even believe this is how relationships work, and I gotta say ... if you need a condition in order to love someone, that's not love, that's control.
Tim Curry was not the 80-year-old Home Alone 2 cast member we were asking for.
Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Most people tend to think of Tim Curry in Rocky Horror or Clue, but I think my generation will remember him more for the millions of voice roles he did for all the cartoons I watched growing up. Ferngully, Pirates of Dark Water, Captain Planet, Aaahh!! Real Monsters, Duckman, Gargoyles, etc. RIP
I guess I'll add that Dolly Parton is up there with Fred Rogers in terms of truly achieving what I think a Christian living their faith in public life should be like.
Was gonna say the OJ chase but I remember when Bush I puked on the Japanese Prime Minister, a moment nine-year-old me thought was very funny.
What's the first historic event that you remember?
Dolly, say hi to Dad. He backed you on drums once in the 60s.
