Involved in staffing anime conventions, local politics, my sports teams, and assorted fixations. Expect random musings on all of them to make this unpalatable for anybody.

Despite liking Star Wars more than Star Trek, I knew what the result of this was going to be before I voted in it. And yes, it's entirely correct. And yes, I voted Star Trek.

Not me watch one LP of a Backrooms-style walking simulator and suddenly getting ideas for two completely separate video games, neither of which I have the means to create.

I love watching the Olympics but usually don't enjoy figure skating, gymnastics, and other sports that sacrifice girls to The Flag, but this... this was just joyful to watch.

Every song that comes to mind that fits that category is either 1) still really adorable and/or 2) written in the middle of Thing-a-Week panic. I hope any dislike stems from something else I'm not aware of.

Digimon Beatbreak Episode 19 Reaction: In this episode, Glowing Dawn comes dangerously close to following instructions, even to the point of not intervening in an auction trafficking both humans and Digimon.

100%. Before his skate I kept thinking that if another country made a cliched figure skating movie about a fictional scrappy underdog, he could be the exact personage of the villain. Then we saw his humanity in a big way.

The terrible nationalistic coverage here often leads me to root *against* Team USA and even I was left heartbroken. Just a reminder of how hard it is to execute in the biggest moments, even when you're the best.

Not counting conventions (that would probably be probably eye contact with Shatner as he walked by), the time our my five year old came perilously close to bowling over our 70-year-old governor.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

If this was Belicheck's Patriots you'd be terrified for Seattle right now. That's both why he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame and hilarious that he isn't. #SuperBowl

Attended seven fan conventions in 2025 without getting sick. Attend an education convention last week and somehow that's where I pick up the con plague.
