Indiana was the worst team in college football for 150 years and then they let you start paying players and they immediately became No. 1 and the only conclusion one can draw is they were the only ones who didn’t realize you could pay players under the table for the first 150 years.

It was the Cubs winning the World Series that doomed us all.
I’m beginning to think we shifted into this utterly stupid timeline in 2016 when Bowie, Prince and Leonard Cohen died. Things have been pretty bad since then.

Breaking news: New baby alpaca born a few hours ago. So we moved the moms & young ones to another prairie so the big boys—male llamas and horses—don’t play too rough with the baby.

Please accept our timeline cleanse as you battle to preserve the 250-year old experiment of American Democracy.

We had to lay off a really lovely human who is 66 years old. She's worked as our prep/line cook for years - but when we closed Delmar there was not a good fit for her anywhere else. Does anyone else have need? She also has experience with customer service. Looking for PT work - 2 to 3 days #STL

TRUMP: They're going to now. I've only been here for 11 months. I inherited a mess. If she got in, you wouldn't have this job right now.

“ I think they underestimate how much time I will devote to making trouble.” The right spirit for the times.
As of now they’re not trying to talk me out of it but told me to email [email protected]. That may just be a deflection hoping that if they throw up some hurdles some people won’t cancel but I think they underestimate how much time I will devote to making trouble.
On the phone with them right now.

All the better to hear the Fanduel ads.
“these broadcast enhancements could lead to features where viewers can control the audio level for a game’s announcers and the ambient crowd noise.”

👀👀
Peacock may soon be able to allow fans to mute announcers during broadcasts.

This is fairly remarkable.

I hope that anyone who reflexively (and understandably) bashes all Christians with the same club will remember how many good and brave ones there are.

Can’t wait for the Twitch stream.
There's both the SNES and Genesis Shadowrun games, which is, I'll admit, pretty exciting.

It's totally understandable if you're dooming about any facet of the American experiment right now. So your feelings are "valid" in the sense that they represent real anxiety, and I get that. But to vent that anxiety in other people's spaces is wrong for three reasons.

MASH is one of the greatest shows ever made. It centers a group of highly skilled people who are scared to be there, who hate the war that is happening there, and who will do their damnedest to help every single person they can for so long as they're suck there.
i cannot tell you how often i think back to MASH when writing. that ability to walk the line between humor and the darkest of humanity, yet never truly cross over into making light of it OR hopelessness--even though it toys with those things, too--is the line i strive for

I'm not sure I can believe this, it is too much.
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

I think it got overshadowed by the (deserved) Ledger Joker hype but as a movie I agree, best of the bunch.

Photos of bound and blind prisoners are not the flex you think they are. They’re a sign of immense deep weakness on the part of the people taking and sharing those photos, and the society that celebrates it.

We are what we do, not what we proclaim.
