Pretty sure that when you have giant frogs everywhere, God is very disappointed in how you are treating immigrants.

They not only stop selling beer in the seventh but they straight up run out of food and stop serving anything. We were drinking bathroom sink water out of nacho helmets.

going by the decor, is this not TGI Fridays?

Someone on Twitter posted a photo of themselves doing a happy dance as they receive a hot plate of fajitas. Then "Raw Egg Nationalist" on Twitter retweets them, writing: It's incredible that these people exist, but they really do. These are the people who justify the demographic replacement of Western countries in terms of the variety of street food and how many different kinds of fried-meat-and-vegetables in flatbread they can buy.

Frank Langella slumming on Star Trek. By far the highest profile Trek guest star at the time - other Trek guests went on to fame after their appearances, but Langella was the rare established actor who stooped to syndicated TV.

Of course, he went uncredited. So there’s that.

Update: Bari Weiss’s first pitch at CBS — a roundtable with Antony Blinken, Mike Pompeo, and Hillary Clinton that ended up being a virtual interview with Clinton & Condoleezza Rice — has about 150 viewers on YouTube.

Added with the 24/7 CBS stream, it’s just over 1200 viewers.

I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up.

Oregon general’s testimony that National Guard troops ‘will be protecting any protesters’ gains traction online

Brigadier General Alan R. Gronewold made the comments to state lawmakers Sept. 30, and they drew notice on social media this week.

My stupid brain reads this and immediately gets locked in a loop of Grandfather’s line from “Ragtime” - “Thus was the coming of the colored man with a car to Broadview Avenue”.

My wife had apparently not paid attention to Nelson in 1989, so when I told her they were Ozzie and Harriet’s grandkids, she spent the rest of the episode in a google hole. #Peacemaker

Cannot thank Nelson enough for being in our #Peacemaker Finale “Full Nelson.” See this very special music video to their song “To Get Back To You” at the link!

Geordi La Forge Nope/Yes meme, but the yes has laser eyes in the visor:

NOPE:
"Do Not Comply In Advance"
- bossy
- already a cliche
- implies permission to comply later

YES:
"Fuck You, Make Me"
- leads by example
- directs yelling at opposition instead of allies
- easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner
