i appreciate that the road runner needs a 'free bird seed' sign to be placed instead of just assuming a pile of bird seed on the ground is free for the taking like most birds.

they said I have to finish writing it before they can nominate me which seems like a convenient excuse

it appears i have been snubbed by the Emmys once again

it's a fair question

one last job

very few people are better than @mikeryan.bsky.social at interviews but I'm not sure he'll ever top getting mom-bombed while talking to Glen Powell www.indiewire.com/features/int...

probably not the biggest issue with the decline of newspapers but i do miss a nice “movie character’s rapid rise to fame depicted via series of front page headlines spinning toward the camera as a peppy little song plays” montage

he looked 55 in 2008 and it worked fine so let’s just assume that still applies

i want to see a Home Run Derby for old dudes no one under 55 show me which retired players can still mash

Frank Thomas is 56 years old and I believe with all of my heart that he could still drive a few meatballs out to left-center

I’m convinced Ichiro would be amazing. He’d train 12 hours a day for 2 weeks and then hit every single pitch one row deep along the right field line in the derby.

okay this is correct
