Twitter. We laughed, we cried, we got a tiny bit better at writing snarky one-liners.

Any time I rewatch a Mr. Belvedere I’m struck with how well it holds up, even today. It’s not perfect but it’s light years beyond anything else that was family tv at the time. Ex: Think about it, a family struggling so mom can go to law school? Life doesn’t have to be linear.

Congratulations to my brilliant wife @film_girl and her equally brilliant co-hosts, @doomquasar and @BriannaWu, on the occasion of recording the 400th episode of their unsurprisingly brilliant podcast, Rocket!

The heat is killing me. So since I can’t sleep, I’m up working on my latest round of re-engineering on my diy #simracing frame, lovingly dubbed CM03/3. - Much deeper and now quickly adjustable pedal box - much less-quickly adjustable wheel angle and depth - 4” seat frame drop.
CM03/3 under construction in the “garage.”

Still not 100% in love with the wheel mounting strategy. It needs a balance between stiff/no flex and enough give for that transducer to really shake the snot out of you, quietly.

They are trying to make us afraid to help each other. We have a moral obligation to do it anyway.

Any other 80s kids absolutely baffled watching a segment of the Republican party shill for Putin? Where is Zombie Ronald Reagan? Some Right leaning news outlets are venturing perilously close to what is arguably "aid and comfort" to the enemy. They'd be instant pariah in 1986.

. @BrandiKruse and @komonews's idea of brave journalistic integrity. -- Tell me again how 2 years of no one commuting has finally shaken out many downtown restaurants, and explain how that has nothing to do with the closures. Ask Piroshki's about their summer food truck tour.

There will never again be another album to rival Steely Dan's "Aja." A year of Los Angeles studio time in which a ridiculous list of name-brand session players were brought in, then replaced with another name-brand session player. Becker had no critic harsher than Becker.

Do you think Q13’s @BrandiKruse should find a more agreeable media market, perhaps in Cambodia under the Khmer rouge? #news #seattle #pearlclutching

And I somehow remember that, when Trump wished people a "happy" memorial day and used it to celebrate himself, @FoxNews seemed fine with it. It's almost as if...gasp...theyre engaged in pure propaganda.

To every person that got vaccinated and is wondering why they still have to wear masks—you’re forgiven for doubting those of us who insisted from the beginning that this was about power—not health or science. You’ve now been sufficiently prepped for authoritarianism.

Kids today grow up hoping they’ll earn enough social media clout so that one day they can securely ask for money to help pay for lifesaving medical care.

Hey @JeffBezos will you spin up some Amazon drones equipped with vaccine blow darts and fly them around town? I’m so tired of this fucking pandemic.
