I beg your pardon? The Man in Black was ALWAYS cool. The WSJ, on the other hand, was never, is not, and will never be.

Compared to Dylan and Springsteen, country-music legend Johnny Cash can seem deeply uncool. It took time for me to appreciate his profound, plainspoken strength, writes Jon Fasman.

My charisma-based Fey character just encourages others to touch, say, and read The Thing.

It's kinda fun since we have a low int/wis agent of chaos character at the table. They are my meat puppet for self-preservation.

Toss those aforementioned keys like a hot potato and yell, "Not it!". Whoever grabs them is on deck.

Boring, low-effort trolls don't need to be studied. They just need therapy and a hobby.

That's wild.

I remember when the deal was done and the excitement around it, especially because of the players involved.

The Avs wouldn't be who they are now without the Nordiques. Sakic, who made some of the most impactful trade deals, is a continuous thread.

I lost most of last weekend by doing that.

I'm not sure why, but this round was almost as bad as my first one for exhaustion and headache.

Lots of fluids!!!

This is concerning and angering on so many levels.

Any partner who would leverage the system to punish a woman who had sought an abortion proves the need for that woman not to be trapped by an unwanted child.

Also: WTF "death investigation" of a "non-viable fetus."

Flock Safety and Texas Sheriff Claimed License Plate Search Was for a Missing Person. It Was an Abortion Investigation.

New documents and court records obtained by EFF show that Texas deputies queried Flock Safety's surveillance data in an abortion investigation, contradicting the narrative promoted by the company and ...

I would eat my gun before asking @audacityofdespair.bsky.social such a thing.

Why do interviewers (I will not call them journalists) keep suggesting AI to creative geniuses?

Is it a collective humiliation kink or just stupidity?

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

/14 The problem is that they all want to rebel against authority so they don't want to listen to a GC representing authority. They're very oppositional. I spent like an hour yesterday explaining "just because the Chapo dudes said it doesn't mean you can say it to Estelle in accounting."

I was the weird rebellious kid growing up in the 80’s. The summer before the start of high school, I was browsing records when a group of punks came in. I was instantly drawn to them. We chatted, they shared music, the rest was history. And a a horrified mother who only forgave me in my 30s.

Patrick Roy fined $10,000 and it probably won't be the last time

As thought may happen, the NHL has fined Colorado Avalanche coach Patrick Roy $10,000 for an incident that occurred at the end of Wednesday night’s Colorado-Anaheim game, which the Avs won 6-1.
