The neighbor is out there with a skid steer again. Third attempt at leveling the pool. At this point it’s less home improvement and more a live-action beta test. Pretty sure this guy couldn’t ride a bicycle in a straight line, but somehow he’s piloting heavy equipment like he’s auditioning for a low-budget construction show. Every weekend I get a front-row seat to another episode of Pool Leveling: The Reckoning.

I love the song and do respect the video. But this culture jammed decline of society narrative being so nostalgia-inducing from lived experience is a bit on the nose.

I’ve never seen Mallrats for a whole bunch of reasons - no money or freedom in the ‘90s, just to name two. This is one of the most ‘90s movies you’ll ever see. Obviously this isn’t a model for healthy relationships, but still.

Oh hey, the Hartford Whalers appear in this - they’ve been the Carolina Hurricanes for about 25 years.

Day off. Cranked up the Dropkick Murphys, turned off the noise, and reminded myself that not every day needs to be productive. Sometimes you just need loud music, zero plans, and a healthy disrespect for adulthood.
