30 years later and this ad where Cap’n Crunch asks to borrow a kid’s mom’s car still has me scratching my head. Why does Cap’n Crunch need a car? Where’s he planning on going?

Revisited The X-Files episode Beyond the Sea, and had forgotten how great it was

There are a lot of things I like about Discord, but the thing where it prevents me from using it while it updates itself every time I open it is not one of them

Nothing makes me scroll away from a LinkedIn post faster than a bunch of sentences with unnecessary paragraph breaks.

I want to make a “grown up Chuck E. Cheese” concept bar and call it Pizza Rat. Salvaged animatronics that perform with the jukebox but go dark when there’s live music. Pizza, tokens, games, tickets, and themed food and beverages called things like Rat Water and Ape Juice.

GSAP’s Flip plug-in is incredible and I wish I’d known about it sooner

Things are going well, my daughter’s classmates named their butterflies “Flappy” and “Meat Stick”

Oops. Just dropped this. Slipped out my pocket. No relation to anything Chrome may or may not be doing with a certain AI-related API that they're forcing out. Complete coincidence. vale.rocks/posts/everyt...

Man, remember ginkgo biloba?

Maybe let’s not make a gothic cow themed tribute band called The Bloody Moos

Bluesky truly feels like Twitter at my peak usage because I post things and there’s mass indifference

I’m being laid off 🧵
