Who are these fucking masked thugs?

Cringe, as fuck.

Cowards, weak and broken human beings.

They are the low men.

S2 of Wednesday on Netflix. Jenna Ortega's deadpan (pun intended) delivery is so good.

The Whiskey River BBQ Burger at Red Robin. The RR by me closed down years ago so I haven't been in a while but got to another one this week and it's as delicious as ever.

One of the things I love about Meet The Teacher Day is seeing how they decorate the classroom. This poster is great.

From a friend's discord.
The road to hell is paved with unfettered data collection.
I have a tin of Heinz Carrot and Coriander soup in the pantry that I bought in 2015. Moved house in 2016 and brought it with me. No idea why we have kept it, never going to eat it. Can't bring myself to throw it away. It's family now.
Unless it's a series (and I don't read a lot of those), I try to avoid reading the same author more than once a year. Spread the wealth, I guess? I'm making an exception for Stephen King, since he has two films coming out based on awesome books. I just finished The Long Walk and going straight into the audio for The Running Man, which I think I last read in high school. Earlier this year I did a re-read of Eyes of the Dragon.
