Once or twice a year, I’ll get an eyelash that’s grey and weirdly long. Plucking it is so satisfying though.

Trying to pick up my cat. She won’t let me. I just want to hold her. 🥺

A calzone.

When I was 10, I went on a trip to Venezuela. At this restaurant in Caracas, I went into the bathroom. It was a single person bathroom. For some reason the door had slide locks on both sides. While I was in there, some kid locked the door from the outside (I could see through a narrow gap). It was a real door, not a stall door. I couldn’t unlock it. I started panicking a little and kicking the door. Eventually a waiter let me out.

I’m still confused about why that door could be locked on the outside.

I can’t get over how Scott Bakula starred in two shows involving time travel and both had infamously bad finales.

Found footage horror. Creep 1 and 2 are my favorites of the genre.

I really hate the collection cases some of the Blu-ray releases come in. I recently got the complete Blu-ray collection of Star Trek: Enterprise. All the discs are crammed in really tight in one single large plastic case; it feels like you’re going to risk breaking them just trying to get any of them out. The table of contents is printed on the inside of the case behind several discs so you have to take those discs out just to see the list.

Collecting plastic lawn chairs.

I put it in the fridge because cold pizza for breakfast is one of my favorite things.

Every time I try to read anything from the pinknews website all I see is a blank page.

I was thinking of it more in a work context where when I question why some old and very inefficient work flow can’t be optimized in some way, I get that cliche in response.

If it’s a fictional show, not usually. But I’ll often play reality shows like Shark Tank or Naked & Afraid or a crime documentary while I do chores.

“It is what it is”. This cliche is symptomatic of learned helplessness and only serves to protect the status quo against any sort critical analysis and reform.

Yeah

I like to grab door handles with my just my index and pinky fingers. I don’t know why. I’ve been doing it since I was a kid. It just amuses me a little. I think I started doing it pretending to be an alien.

Probably a dumb question, but if the website servers aren’t physically located in Florida, why must the websites follow Florida law?

Why is Walter White’s head just floating there?

I could actually use one of these.

Creaks. It’s a puzzle platformer sort of in the style of Limbo and Inside. Beautiful hand drawn graphics. Really challenging puzzles. And the music feels like it organically evolves as you progress through the game.

In the 00s I used to download pirated movies and tv shows off of these asian YouTube clones. There were english boards with links to videos on these sites so finding specific movies or shows was easy. They were often split in 10 minute parts. 240p at best. Audio was often out of sync. I’d then load them onto my click wheel iPod (“iPod classic”) and watch them in bed. It’s how I watched a lot of movies my parents wouldn’t let me see, like Alien. It’s also how I watched nearly all of MST3K.
