I got the shittiest fortune cookie fortune ever.

Covid was the first time he couldn’t just bullshit his way out of something. We might be seeing the second.

It’s 70 degrees and my grocery store’s snow-and-dirt mountain is still holding strong.

Never in a million years would I have expected Bikini Kill in a Disney movie

What an honor to spend $4.29 a gallon to fill my tank, god bless our troops 🫡

Not gonna brag or anything, but I just got to fill out two supplimental financial aid forms for my kids college and now get to go to the oral surgeon.

Otherworldly sunset through the Costco cart return door

Did two kick-ass interviews for the next season of Rebel Spirit today, including perhaps one of my favorite quotes ever: “One of my hobbies is killing dead confederates.”

Yes, sign me up for that hobby as well.

wild storm rolling through

THEY STILL HAVE KINKOS IN JAPAN????

A perfect day.

think if our governments had spent the last couple decades seriously trying to end dependency on oil

Spent most of my day today dredging some kind of eldritch horror up from my bathtub drain. Missed all the nice weather, not a fair trade.

Finally a Lego set for shipping sickos.

Do RFK jr next.

“We accidentally killed all the folks we’d want to lead Iran” is 100% the girlfriend-in-Canada for not actually having a succession plan.

Years ago I pitched a “Tales-from-the-Crypt meets the Daily Show” half hour news show hosted by a Cryptkeeper-type and honestly I would really really watch the fuck out of that right now.

My best portrait of all time was taken in the elevator at the Ace Hotel in Los Angeles.

You probably missed it this weekend what with literally everything happening at once, but I wrote a piece about subculture, collective action, this fucked moment, and The Goonies.

The best thing you can do in light of the Ellison takeover of Warner Brothers invest your time, energy, and money in supporting independent creators and independent distribution networks and independent venues. It is absolutely crucial to make independence a viable option.

Teeth are the stupidest bone. Just give me a baleen and let me slurp krill or something.

Lol Apple never knocked down the price of the Vision Pro down????

Triples luge, you cowards

Just had to scrap a whole blog post highlighting a bunch of rad signpainters because Instagram doesn’t allow inline playback of reels, instead the “embed” function is basically just a gigantic box with a link back to Instagram. We used to have a functional web and we gave it all away for nothing.

The kid got perhaps the greatest knockoff Lego set of all time.

I’m just not going to take health advice from a guy who wears jeans to the gym, let alone all his other fucking problems.

HAPPY PACZKI DAY

Got some new thermal labels for the whistle operation.

PACZKI DAY IS TOMORROW BE PREPARED.

It is amazing outside right now.

The national media moved on from Minnesota because they haven’t killed another observer. People gotta die to get them out of New York.

It’s endlessly funny to me that the one guy these folks have is Kid Rock. That’s it. That’s the whole bench.

Gonna have a lot more to say about the incredible work of this crew of whistle goblins in a post tomorrow, but for me, personally, I just printed my 10,000th whistle.

The whistle goblins shipped 100,000 whistles in the first four days of February. And today? The fifth day? 37,000 more. This is perhaps the most inspiring act of collective action I’ve ever been lucky enough to be a part of.

Help by buying filament: linktr.ee/WhistleWi…

Just a reminder that Border Patrol was created in 1924 when the Klan was at the height of its political influence.

300 whistles heading for suburban Minneapolis in the morning.

remote school today because of the cold and every “can you hear me” literally triggers PTSD from the year of zoom school

Absolutely fucking not.

Just interviewed for a documentary about the Promise Ring, so I am going to go crumble into dust now.

Everyone’s just trying to live their lives the best they can. And these motherfuckers are just wilding out, marauding, terrorizing for no fucking reason beyond “they can.” This helps nobody. This benefits zero people. This is dropping entire communities into a nightmare for sport.

800 whistles packed up and shipping to six different towns, coast to coast.

Got to go in the backroom of the post office to drop eight tubs of zines, so today was a good day.

Spent basically the entire weekend signing, numbering and packing a remarkable number of zines. Ended up with EIGHT mail tubs full. Kinda blown away and definitely very tired.

A Saturday morning spent printing whistles and signing/numbering zines is a pretty good Saturday morning.

Good mail day.

I live in Chicago and it’s January and yet every time it snows I am like HOW DARE YOU

Coming soon.

Inflation hits my grocery store’s party sub biz.

this is so cool: a “radio score card” for listeners to keep track of the nominations at the 1928 republican national convention.

Me every time the moon is full.

Anyone who was out in Chicago during the two months of occupation knows full well that it could have gone this way for any of us. Still could. And we’ll still go out.

There are more of us than there will ever be of them.

Minneapolis is one of my favorite cities in the whole world. So many people that I love dearly up there. Be safe, be vigilant, do not stop.

I have a great number of questions.

don’t miss out on the clock sensation of the year y’all.

Absolutely the people I want in charge at a moment of extreme fluidity and massive unknowns is this particular band of cokeheads, steroid juicers, dementia patients, and JD Vance.

Baghdad was lit up like a Christmas Tree

I’m sure this will be the first American intervention with no blowback or unintended consequences.

American intervention has destabilized the world for generations. We could all have so much more, but instead we have this.

I tripled the number of folks subscribed to my writing in 2025. That’s legit crazy. Thank you all who did so, and get on board if you haven’t. dansinker.com/follow/

Thank fucking christ, we did it
