Mr. Blue is inexplicably watching that "He-Man" movie that recently came out, and I'm confused because Skeletor seems like a jerk and he's totally cool and chill here. nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d...

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... the He-Man movie depicts Skeletor when he was still on X. He’s chilled out considerably since he left.

(Not gonna lie -- I kind of like Texas Roadhouse. Their steaks are good, and they have a good variety of sizes.)

@nprofile1q... what’s your opinion of their free bread? I’ve never been, but I read the massive article in the Atlantic about free bread, so my curiosity is piqued.

Mr. Blue is doing his traditional 4th of July viewing of the last third of "Independence Day." He decided to forgo his traditional 4th of July sweaty run on the Mall.

Tomorrow is the day Mr. Blue receives his Book of Racy Photos from the Super Seekrit Photo Shoot. And ... I'm nervous. What if he doesn't like them? What if he thinks it's weird? I'm too anxious to be...

@nprofile1q... there’s been so much buildup in this tale that I feel very invested in its outcome.

It's like you turn 50, and it's all of a sudden, "FUCK YEAH DAVE BRUBECK."

@nprofile1q... am...am I 50?? Have I been 50 this whole time‽

Ugh: "On Facebook, comments about the shot include: “Don’t do it!” “Huge lie!” and “It’s a scare tactic.” One person wrote, “Never will I ever inject my baby with poisons from big ph...

@nprofile1q... yes, we must all join together to fight Big Vitamin.

It’s a sad irony that some of these people extol the value of unproven supplements and homeopathic “medicine”.

Did I tell you guys that my trombone-playing nephew has chosen to attend Eastman School of Music in Rochester, N.Y.? That's going to be quite the climate shift -- the kid has never lived anywhere but ...

Also, it's definitely NOT vintage unless you consider plates from 2006 or so to be "vintage." (Absolutely not.)

Today is #ArmenianGenocide Remembrance Day, marking the arrest and deportation of hundreds of Armenian leaders and intellectuals in Constantinople on April 24th, 1915. Most were eventually killed.

Deportations and massacres of Armenians had already begun in other parts of the Ottoman Empire and would continue. One million Armenians were killed, many in concentration camps or on death marches.

I'm a descendent of Genocide survivors. Let their histories not be forgotten.

@nprofile1q... This is the best thread I've read all week. I absolutely love hearing stories like this. I feel like most of these people are archetypes that I've run into, either in my personal life, or in my former life as an Apple Store Genius. I find these stories comforting.
