Seeing a preview of Dark Matter in Apple TeeVee makes me wish someone would reboot Nowhere Man and hire Bruce Greenwood to star in it again.

If you have Kanopy, the streaming service that ties into participating public libraries, a wonderful snapshot of life in Mexico in 1930/31 is “ ¡Qué viva México!” and I really recommend it. Assembled from footage from Soviet director Sergei Eisenstein…

Sorry I take this back. There’s a dramatic sequence that has an unseen rape of a peasant bride to be at the hands of a privileged upper class man. I’m missing the point of this part.

In March of 1997 WIRED Magazine published their cover story on how browsers might soon disappear as everyone would prefer stuff pushed to them instead of discovered via following links.

It was widely panned and browsers are still very much alive today but I have to say when I look at Instagram and TikTok, those are all-Push content apps and maybe WIRED got it a little bit correct?

@mathowie they probably featured Pointcast in that article. An interesting product that the internet and people's bandwidth was not quite ready for. (I think it was likely mismanaged too.)

I really feel I would be a very productive member of the Mulch & Soil Council.

When you see my name on the ballot this year, I hope you will consider me to be an excellent choice when you make your selection.

@nancycomics Nancy I used to think that but a thin layer of peanut butter so it becomes melty with a drizzle of honey really hits the spot.

There’s a dude working at this Home Depot who has a head of hair as magnificent as the late Wolfman Jack and it is a sight to behold. A true hero.

If you don’t know Jack, I gotchu. 🤩

We took a 15 minute drive to the farms nearby to get a more expansive view. I’d love to say “this is what my eyes saw” but it isn’t. I’ve learned the camera really intensifies the color. That said, it was still a thrill, very first time I ever saw and I hope it may last another night, I know of a high train trestle bridge nearby I’d love to photograph in front of the glow. (Location: off West Union Road just east of North Plains by the Rice Rock Museum.)

The Munchkin is having her Friday night discord chat with her crew and i come in with: “Cmon going for a drive to the farm fields, you may never see this again in your life”

Big eye roll and gets back to the screen. 🫠

@pykemann nice. Gong for a drive in the farm land in a short bit while it intensifies.

Just read a headline about an American break dancer getting ready to take Ozempic gold and I’m so confused by the news.

Who would have guessed, but the Flickr feed for “aurora” photos from the last day is filled with Second Life pr0n with images thusly tagged. 🫠

Imagine spending the equivalent of five teacher’s salaries to re-rename your schools after a few defeated secessionists and thinking that makes you a Real American.
