MASTODON HATES THREADS

No one reads threads, but I'd just like to point out that my remarks about toupees are important and very useful.

Even or especially if they make you angry.

I hope you like the ones where we talk about X-Men and aging and life.

Last week, Roderick and I talked about everything, and this week we talked about something else.

Which is also the title of a really good record.

Somehow, The Kinks still feel really underrated.

I like how the supports make my new rancor look like a scary building.

Oh shit, dawg.

Seven hours is nothing.

I like this guy.

It's like it says in the Psalms.

You can't make an unnecessary cthulhu rancor without squeezing out some pretty aggressive tree supports.

And, really, it's just as true today. Beautiful.

“After they threw me off the plane in Detroit…” begins Merlin’s most recent personal anecdote.

I think you're supposed to use, like, talc?

@powersoffour I have the feeling he already knows how to wear a stillsuit.

I told him he can stay home from school for a couple days to catch up if it means we can watch part one by the weekend.

(I have not discussed this with his mother, but I have to assume she'll agree.)

Junior is about halfway through his current novel, and I only just realized that one of my bizarre, once-a-month non sequiturs might suddenly make a little more sense now.

Or, if it makes as little *contextual* sense as it always has, at least now it has a referent.

My God, he's so lucky to have me.

I have so much nostalgia for the future of the past.

Which is a very complicated feeling, just temporally.

ME: Better or worse?

FAMILY: …

Getting everything set up for tonight’s big lamp shade test.

(Only in this exclusive behind-the-scenes footage will I cop to Sony advertising levels of cable concealment fraud.)

@craigmaloney

I can only tell you what he told me.

So I never called him before noon.
