    I rotate through these for everything from physical training to career goals to reminding myself to do my best to not be a douchebag:

    “If I give up now, I’m going to regret it.” -Monkey D. Luffy

    “Where’s the future? Right here. Whose life is this? Mine. What are you gonna do with it? Live it by any means necessary.” -Jefferson Pierce

    “If you wanna stop this, then stand up! Because I’ve got one thing to say to you! Never forget who you want to become!” -Shoto Todoroki

    “Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.” -Marcus Aurelius

    “Giving help that’s not asked for is what makes a true hero.” -Izuku Midoriya

    “I’ve set myself to become the King of the Pirates… and if I die trying… then at least I tried.” -Monkey D. Luffy

    “If every porkchop were perfect, we wouldn’t have hot dogs.” -Steven Universe


  • Fiction writer Christopher Moore has these dogs appear as side characters in his stories set in San Francisco! He’s combined them with another SF celebrity vagrant, Emperor Norton (the homeless self-proclaimed emperor of the United States).

    In his books, the Emperor travels the streets of San Francisco with Lazarus and Bummer as his brave royal companions, being witnesses or playing some role in the antics of the main characters and the plot. In real life, the Emperor and these two beloved dogs were not traveling companions, but simply shared similar fame and community.


  • It’s split into eight episodes and I went through the same audience arc that a lot of people did. I came in with way too high of expectations, was able to temper them during the second episode, and then once I got a feel for it I finally started enjoying it from the third episode on. If nothing else, it is obvious how excited everyone was to work with Mel Brooks and a lot of behind-the-scenes interviews go into how Mel is still the sharpest guy in the room and kept everyone laughing throughout production.



  • Definitely. There was this lucid dream where I was excited that I actually realized I was dreaming and could experience it conciously. There were certain things I couldn’t do and eventually people in the dream revealed I couldn’t control those things because I wasn’t actually dreaming, but was dead.

    It was a good twist. Freaked me out and I couldn’t wake up so I figured it was true. Of course the double twist was that I wasn’t actually dead and was just in fact dreaming, but it was a good ride. It’s got kind of a lynchian vibe that I’d be down to just watch it as a movie.
