I sometimes worry that too many people think being a good critic means being a self-righteous dick about every little thing and I think far too many miss the point that you can't critique anything if you don't know how to love something.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

Nurse Dana and the other older lady who came in to help later both asked for gumbands ... and yeah I think there was a rubber band ball

If they have a season that takes in cold weather you'll get to hear all about how it's slippy aht

Where things stand with the Department of War A statement from Dario Amodei

I think one of the most staggering industry shifts in my 16 years as a tech reporter is that it’s not become a question of β€œshould our product help the government kill and/or surveil people?” but β€œto what extent?”

Urban Dictionary: Disney Dad Disney Dad: A father who doesn't have physical custody of his child. So, to compensate for this, he makes the visitation times with his child all about fun....

I have heard multiple people talk about getting "Divorced Dad..." in their spotify daily mix word salad thingies. I feel like "Divorced Dad Energy" has definitely been a thing for a while.

"Disney Dad" as a derogatory term (often but not always re: divorce)

Embodying the winds of change, the number 5 speaks of adaptability and transformation. It encourages you to welcome change, shifting your view to discover new paths.

Calendar w my daily tarot card, three Thursdays: V Wands + two consecutive hierophants

Calendar w my daily tarot card, three Thursdays: V Wands + two consecutive hierophants

In Greek the word for Thursday, Πέμπτη, literally means "fifth" so three consecutive 5 pulls for Thursday feels v appropriate (hope we make it to 5 consecutive maybe then something weird happens)
