I don't know that I've ever seen such effortless, weird, joyously amazing dancing as Mr. Milchick in season 1 of Severance's MDE scene... that shit came straight from @TramellTillman's soul, and I wish I could do it justice in even my most drunkenly stuporous dance night outings.

Giving some quick kudos for #ReactConf this year. There were some amazing talks, between #RSC and #Tanstack, #ViewTransitions, and #Expo. I think I also have to give it up to @chantastic overall as the MC, and really wish I could have seen the end of @rickyfm's presentation.

Just finished watching @pattonoswalt on @StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds: "Four-And-A-Half Vulcans" and holy shit, the entire episode was amazing. I know his inner nerd was in a walking wet dream the entire time. Can we get him on the @startrekcruise now, please? :D

Sometimes you cave and make Prime purchases. Tonight, it was Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) and Disney's The Three Musketeers (1993).. I mean, come on.. Costner and Freeman? Sutherland, Sheen, Platt, O'Donnell, and Curry? No question.. at all. These movies are for all time.

Rewatched #TheOldGuard last night in anticipated for the sequel drop today... Just finished watching #TheOldGuard2OnNetflix and am excited to see what #TheOldGuard3 has in store for us :)

#RIPMCA - The world still misses you, king!

To the people at @paramountplus, and the entire team at #StarTrekLowerDecks. I know Jack isn't watching this anymore, but @TrondyNewman and I'm sure several others are: Thank you. You only got 5 years, but you made the most of them. LD is such an epic addition to the franchise <3

@Frankenroc @paramountplus Same here, @paramountplus ... Trying to watch ST:DS9, and then ST:VOY, both are defaulting to French, and there's not even an option for English audio.

@smd21 @TheDeniseCrosby @POTUS @KamalaHarris @JoeBiden @AOC As much as I would LOVE to see @AOC as a VP nod, I feel like she can do so much more good still in Congress, at least at this point in time... But absolutely, if I can get a President Ocasio-Cortez before I die, I will die a happy man :)

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

@MikePortnoy @drumeo I was just introduced to Mike doing Pneuma in a fucking 8-hour stint in your studio, and holy shit. I mean, I will love Danny Carey until the day I die, but Mike, that was fucking incredible. Thank you, please let me know if you ever get down to McAllen, TX.

If I had a dollar for every minute my wife and I have spent on the phones with @VirginVoyages trying to sort out our 4 botched cruise booking attempts, I *might* have back the number of dollars they're still overcharging us. @RichardBranson, demand better of your companies, ffs.

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

@InSoc -- As "Pure Energy" plays on my @Spotify, I'm reminded of my first @startrekcruise, and you guys being the invited musical guests, and how *awesome* it was to not only have that to look forward to, but to also see you nerd out about being there.

Thanks for the memory! :)

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

#RIPMCA -- still missing this awesome motherfucker, still loving the @beastieboys as much as ever.

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

Found the problem, you guys... #facebookdown

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

@HEB: please stop training your deli people to seal the price sticker across the fucking flap on deli meats and cheeses. They don't do this for pre-sliced meats and cheeses, why do it for custom sliced stuff?! More often than not, I tear the fucking bag just trying to open it!

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

Missing you at @VirtualTrekCon today @MrKenMitchell, but thanks for the message to all of us! <3

@t3dotgg Punch cards and a computer science doctorate is the best option. Most programming languages were created because we have way too many "self-taught" people in the industry.

@jarrod_luca @ryanflorence If anything, unfettered and unguided use of AI would lead to terrible code being written over time. We still have 9-fingered, 3-handed people being generated in AI art. As the popular project name implies, AI should be seen as a "copilot". Somebody still needs to vet that output.

@jayphelps @reactjs @Meta @callstackio I just told my wife "It's been a while since I've been to a tech conference, and being a React dev, such as I am, I feel like I should really REALLY try to make it to this one" :D

I'm sure she'll insist on joining me, for, um, moral support, or something.

[Richard Lindsey @Velveeta]

@ryanflorence -- this showed up in my Facebook feed earlier from an industry-unrelated person and I got all excited like "hey! I know that guy!"
