Charles Yu writes interesting books... I think. I've only read one and that was over a decade ago, but I have four more (now three) on my TBR. Interior Chinatown was one of them. It's definitely a unique exploration of Asian stereotypes in pop culture.

Today, like any other day, is a good day to check in on your friends. They may be dealing with stuff that nobody knows about. #MentalHealth

The Pixel 10 launch with Jimmy Fallon is giving me flashbacks to the Windows 95 launch with Jay Leno.

They tried so hard.

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.

Aramis Ramirez and Derrek Lee, Rogers Centre, Toronto (2008)
Later that day with the roof open, D-Lee watching a frozen rope by A-Ram go over the fence in about 3 seconds.
@sk76 D-Lee was one of my favorites. Just a complete badass while at the same time being a consummate professional.
@dbsalk I loved them both
@sk76 For sure, Aramis Ramirez was no slouch either. He may have been the best third baseman the Cubs had until Kris Bryant showed up.
