And, yes, that someone with so much power and influence has these beliefs is definitely worth knowing, but that doesn't make those ideas themselves really worth wasting time on ...

I don't mean to disparage your reporting, but I'm thinking Peter Thiel's thoughts on (checks notes) the, uh, Antichrist aren't very much worth hearing.

Roosevelt (Road). But it's because the tourist is pronouncing it correctly.

Merriam-Webster @merriam-webster.com · 2d

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

Hey, credit where due: she made it through one entire sentence before making a grammatical error. 😐

(For what it's worth, I go juicy/hot for my double sausages,. But just "hot" on my beefs.)

@ILeftRome @ileftrome.bsky.social · 5d

Juicy? Sweet?-- I don't judge, but definitely a beef/hot person, myself.

Poor fuckers don't about giardiniera May God have mercy on their souls. #beefwithhot

Wife ditched her beloved Kindle for the Nook. Seems to like it just fine, no complaints.

@ILeftRome @ileftrome.bsky.social · 6d

It's excellent.

It's the dictionary definition image of a shit-eating grin. 🙄

Why not call them up to do something else? Pick up trash in Peoria or mow lawns in Rockford?

I will not call up our National Guard to further Trump’s acts of aggression against our people.

Should add: "... this is something akin to what those two movies should have been ..." but instead we got what " ... QT and a quiescent editor released." (Previous comment is unclear.)

@ILeftRome @ileftrome.bsky.social · 7d

This is not "... the chance to see it as one movie,”; this is something akin to what those two movies should have been but QT and a quiescent editor released instead. It wa sclear to me when I wasn't yet 30-- what's their excuse?

@ILeftRome @ileftrome.bsky.social · 7d

Been saying for years and years that an good editor willing to say no to QT would've made this into an amazing 3-ish hour movie. But instead ...

I at first thought you were saying this was going to be a show where you screamed at the food, and I thought to myself, "I'd watch that ..." 🙃

@ILeftRome @ileftrome.bsky.social · 10d

Funny- I read this comment (you've replied to), and I immediately thought, "Cue The Louvre in three ... two ... ."
