    Loner. Rebel. Legend.

    Paul Reubens, best known for his character Pee-wee Herman, has passed away. He was genius in other supporting roles later in his career — including The Spleen in 1999’s thoroughly underrated Mystery Men — but he’ll always be Pee-wee in our hearts. Who could forget the mastermind behind the original smart home?

    We’ll be re-watching the 1981 Pee-wee Herman Show special that started it all on Max — checking out some episodes of Pee-wee’s Playhouse on Amazon would be fitting, too. Rest easy, Paul, and wherever you are, tell ‘em Large Marge sent you.

    Deliver me from Cocomelon.

    I have a vehicle-obsessed toddler, and just when I thought I couldn’t handle another viewing of Cocomelon’s Wheels on the Bus we stumbled across Twenty Trucks.

    It’s a YouTube channel with songs dedicated to construction trucks and all manner of working vehicles. They’re delightfully homegrown, catchy, and feature plenty of that sweet truck footage. Check them out with the tiny vehicle-loving human in your life and thank me later — the car carrier is a big favorite in our house.
