I write weird music and read too many comic books. Sometimes I do both at the same time...

Just bought a book that I'm super excited to read but I have 2 others in progress that I haven't finished yet.

Might put them all on the back burner...

Marty Crunchwrap Supreme and more menu ideas for your 2026 Oscars party You're inviting folks over to watch the Oscars, but you want to serve them a bill-of-fare that reflects this year's idiosyncratic slate of best picture nominees. We can help with that.

What now qualifies as a yearly tradition.

Probably as legally gay as Tom Cruise would have allowed.

Stargate gives off "we have Star Trek at home" energy.

I don't mean that as a bad thing, just a vibe shift. Charmed was very "regional theater Buffy" thing

Can snack foods ever reach a point where they just become food?

Like, at what point have you had a meal of potato chips? You can snack on pretty much any meals, right? But does it ever go the other way?

The Void Would Very Much Like You to Stop Screaming Into It Hey. It’s me. The Void. We need to talk. I know I don’t usually say anything. I know this is usually a one-way street, and you’re used to that. You...

"He’s just one guy. One freaking guy. You have got to stop coming here, day after day, screaming into me about him. Especially using that many curse words. I think we can both admit at this point that the screaming isn’t working. The screaming isn’t making you feel any better."

Is Stargate the sci-fi equivalent to Xena?

I haven't mentioned it in a while but Rhythm Nation is better than Thriller.

It is equal parts compelling and pretentious. Utterly fascinating

A man with one clock knows the time.

A man with two clocks is never sure.

If you wonder what Downton Abbey would be like by way of Top Secret! then you need to watch Fackham Hall.

I'm supposed to have 4 lessons today.

The Friday before Spring Break.

I'm sure to get at least 3 cancellation emails.

"We think. We read. We are not peasants. We are mechanics. But even the peasants know better than to believe in a war. Everybody hates this war."
"There is a class that controls a country that is stupid and does not realize anything and never can. That is why we have this war."
"Also they make money out of it."
"Most of them don't," said Passini. "They are too stupid. They do it for nothing. For stupidity."

I started reading Hemingway’s β€œA Farewell to Arms” a few days ago. This passage made me put the book down for a few seconds…
