Armchair rocket scientist graffiti existentialist. Old enough for it to hurt when I stand up, not old enough to have stopped noticing. Agnostic in principle, atheist in practice, #CSS guy, mzungu. I’m only here for the food.
- Today I learned that rich people have no idea how US health insurance and laws like EMTALA actually work. Okay, I didn’t learn that, I already knew. It’s just funny to me that he came right out and said so and doesn’t have the self-respect to delete it.
- Far too many men will be unable to figure this logo out.
- Given the extent to which these jabronis and their cultists fetishize Imperial Rome, I’m surprised he didn’t order a switch to Trajan.
- This is what I’m getting when trying to use Bluesky on desktop, so on the assumption that this will spread to the mobile client, it looks as if my time here will be coming to a close. Ah well. As Kermit the Frog once said, “Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it.”
- For *vastly* different reasons, “The Piano” (the soundtrack to which I nevertheless adore) and “Beasts of the Southern Wild”.
- “We should publicly hang people who are a harm to society”, said the techbro billionaire without even a hint of a shred of self-awareness.

- Pete Hegseth, Admiral Mitch Bradley, and an unknown (to me) number of military personnel are either war criminals or mass murderers. There really is no other option. www.forever-wars.com/pete-hegseth...
- I have tried a Krispy Kreme sour cream donut and I can report that they are notably less mediocre than the standard Krispy Kreme glazed donut. Still not all that great, mind you, but might be worth trying if you find yourself stuck on a Krispy Kreme run or something.
- New reaction pic just dropped
- When Twitter doubled its post length limit, the very first thing I posted was a Tom Stoppard quote. Here’s hoping his exit is an entrance elsewhere. www.npr.org/2025/11/29/1...
- Every paragraph of this article is a banger. “We don’t need to reinvent styling. We just need to respect the boundaries that made the web work in the first place. CSS is not broken; our discipline is. The answer isn’t more abstraction—it’s better understanding.” thenewstack.io/css-in-js-th...
- One of the greatest tricks the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world the New York Times is left-leaning.
- “Biden Asylum Cases” is NYT’s framing for a story pegged to a man who got asylum 3 months into the Trump administration www.nytimes.com/2025/11/27/u...

- I grew up Midwest Protestant, I am unable to accept or remember compliments
- You will be visited by three spirits. The three spirits.

- What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss, Charlie Brown
- You wanna know how to get Capone? They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. THAT’S the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone, Charlie Brown.
- They’re heeere, Charlie Brown.
