Have I seen too many Final Destination movies or is Craig standing in the “hit by car from off screen” spot? #wwdc

Tomorrow, we welcome the great
Evan Dorkin to discuss the legendarily-inexplicable 2003 bomb DREAMCATCHER!

And there's no better time to check out Evan's work! He's just released an omnibus of his humor comix under the name NERD INFERNO! tinyurl.com/evandorkin

@Alice I recently started listening to the Judge John Hodgman podcast. To close out episode #61 (Nature Versus Nerd-ture) they play a clip created by a listener named Alice who edited Hodgman’s “Podcast Justice” intro into The Dead Milkmen’s “Bitchin’ Camaro”. This seems wholly in the realm of your wheelhouse and capabilities. Coincidence?
I think the future of human employment will be focused on fact checkers/researchers whose sole job will be to unfuck all of the misinformation that AI shits out.

When I was a teenager in the '90s, my boyfriend at the time gave me his old skateboard.

The trucks and wheels were fine, but the deck was heavily used and the design had been scraped off most of the bottom, so I took some paint markers and decorated it by painting a black and white checkerboard background with a large stormtrooper head in the foreground because Star Wars and ska were two of my favorite things at the time.

I was mostly just a poser and barely rode it and it remained in the back of my car for several years until I was at a sporting goods store and saw a kid doing tricks on a demo deck and I told him he was really good and he said "Thanks! I have to practice here because I don’t have a skateboard."

At that moment, I remembered my backseat skateboard and told him he could have it, but warned him that the "graphic" was kind of nerdy so he was more than welcome to draw/paint over it.

I went out to my car and grabbed the skateboard and brought it to the front of the store where the kid was waiting and he flipped it over and said "Whoa! Star Wars and ska?!? These are two of my favorite things!"

I’m so glad that skateboard finally found the right owner.

It is very funny that ICE didn’t change anything about their MO for the airport deployments.

The dude is wearing plate armor with a bunch of shit tactically stuck to it, to stand behind a Black woman sitting in a chair, doing the actual work, without getting paid.

I’m always surprised whenever I see people smoking or buying cigarettes because I guess I just assumed they all died off by now.
