The most 2026 thing ever would be this news awakening a faint spark of hope after 20 years of letting go... only to find they were reuniting for a crypto or GLP-1 commercial. #firefly
Don’t put this all on me, Badge. It’s a group project.

*gasp* My new favorite micro-addiction! This takes the 'doom' out of doomscrolling, replacing the fleeting dopamine hit of social feeds with random Wikipedia entries. Shouldn't work as well as it does, and yet… xikipedia.org
PERFECT
Nearby couple on a first coffee date — guy keeps testing the nerd waters: Floated Star Trek SNW (she's "been meaning to watch it"), second swing with TNG ("heard of it"). Here's where most get the drift, but this brave fella dove into his 'Old Testament' D&D campaign. There but for the grace of God…
A Cybertruck, the Blackbird from Battlestar Galactica and an Iron Man reference.
I posted this triple-meta nerd joke 6 years ago today and nobody got it and I'm clearly still salty about it.
So we're gonna just escalate right to "Not only are you somewhere you shouldn't be, but you're clearly not you — you're not even doing a good job of being a person pretending to be you."
Breaking out a classic costume for trick or treaters. Happy Halloween! #ghostbusters
Also at the end of the trail today: free bike tune-ups by Friends of the W&OD.
Me, ashamed of riding this thing too hard without proper care: “I know it’s been too long since I’ve had a tune up. How bad am I?”
Him, after 4 seconds of silence: “… beautiful day, isn’t it.”
Word on the street is that you’re doing awesome.

Perceptions of journalism — and who is a journalist — keep shifting.
• Good news for journalists: 8 in 10 agree that you deserve that title if you write for a paper/website.
• Bad news: About half say influence is on the decline.

People who occasionally play Scrabble (maybe 3-4x per year), help me settle an argument in my house:
You just "know" how letter values … right? D=2, J=8, K=5, M=3, Q=10, etc.?
I rattled them off to prove it's common knowledge. My wife says this is NOT neurotypical human behavior.
Someone complimented the reference on my shirt with the subtlety of a drug deal at the grocery store. "Nice shirt," he said from behind his oncoming cart. "Yeah, a deep cut," I replied as we passed. "Hey, if you know, you know," he said, and we were gone. #neverfadeaway #cyberpunk2077
Power is out, which means an excuse to dig in the Halloween storage bins.
Pros: Can do dishes
Cons: Think I summoned something
'Transfer to a toll booth?' C'mon, scammer — what does that even mean? Do *I* get transferred to a toll booth? Is it like a workplace relocation, or more of a quantum state phenomenon?
I sure am glad Apple has kept the ability for me to add my friends' ICQ usernames in Contacts

Discovered #Pantheon a few weeks ago — why am I the only one in the world watching it?? SO. GOOD. The first two eps are slow burns, but the show is otherwise devoid of filler and full of unseen twists. Dramatic, cerebral, prescient, moving, beautiful. On Netflix now and worth a watch!
I'm not always one for gimmicky t-shirts, but I love the subtle ones that wouldn't get a second glance from most and mean the world to fans.
… I guess that means I am one for gimmicky t-shirts.

Thanks! And live remark from the composer as he stumbles out of bed at noon for a bowl of Cocoa Dino-Bites: "Hey, that's my favorite track, too! Mostly because I wrote it in one go when I was having a shit night."
Making news pay in 2025: Newsweek's SVP audience development @awtry.bsky.social says: "News publishers looking for a single huge revenue opportunity are setting themselves up for disappointment" and "The future lies where AI algorithms can’t follow: human connection"
What's cooler than retro synthwave dappled with colors of Japanese fusion? Having a son who just published his first EP, all in that style. Torn between being a proud dad and a fan, so I'mma go with both.
Favorite track below — if you dig it, spread the love: open.spotify.com/track/62QzNW...

The recent re-election of Donald Trump has ignited discussions about his ambitious proposal to establish a national strategic Bitcoin reserve—but what would it look like? Is it even feasible?
