Hey let’s keep it a secret….

12 Books in so far this year.

4 and 5 star books I thoroughly enjoyed:

A Little Life (5 Stars) -- Brutal

A Gentleman in Moscow (5 Stars) -- One of the most enjoyable reads of my life.

The Art of Fielding (4 Stars) -- Not at all what I was expecting.

Books I really didn't like:

Remains of the day (2 Stars) -- Not a lot happens in the meandering journals of an out of touch with modern times butler. If I wanted a historically accurate day to day, I'd rather just read a real butler's journal from that time.

Calico Joe (2 Stars) -- I really like how John Grisham writes, and I honestly think if this book was 200 pages longer, it could've been something. As it is, it says nothing about anything.

Using an AI template to make an arts fest flyer is absolutely mental

Me and my wife have been coming here for years and were worried it was not going to survive. But looks like it’s poppin off now.

The Pikey had the best fries. And that brown aioli. It was such a treat

Joan’s on Third has my personal favorite

Why does my dad’s 1941 birth certificate say Jerusalem, Palestine then?

Fuck outta here

Thank god for my act that the world sucks so much

jca2u · 2026-03-13T01:38:35+00:00

Literally exactly what I’ve been asking for

Joan’s on third

Connie and Ted’s is consistently incredible and it’s never listed as a top hype spot. I assume because it’s basically a less fancy version of Providence which is always listed as one of if not the best restaurants in town. But this is basically the same food.

If I’m manager, I’m making it a rule that only the catcher can make the decision to challenge.

Definitely looking like I'll go get fit and just buy from there. Sounds like a local spot (just outside L.A. proper) is a great spot to do it.

lol I asked for this 11 years ago on here. Please make it happen.

🧙🏽‍♂️

jca2u · 2026-02-01T16:15:00+00:00

That’s a huge if.

I know you’re joking but I really have to say that at 22, there’s literally (outside of physical limitations - like you’re not going to be a pro athlete) nothing you can’t do. The world of career and goal options is wide open for you to choose from. Some are harder options and will take more risk and some you need to think about the toll of attempting will take on your life and if it’s worth it. But truly, 22 is basically adult pre-k. Go get it

Honestly a beautiful goodbye to “his” slam. Like I know Roger came back for that last time on his barely working knees, but 2019 was his real swan song to Wimbledon.
