Opinions are my own. If I don’t follow you back, I likely added you to a list instead, as it’s how I manage my experience here. My base feed is news only, but using lists to expand it in a managed way.
Higgins Boys and Gruber was great TV. Early on, when it was Comedy Channel they used to show Sid Caesar, Steve Allen and Ernie Kovacs. I wish TV had more of that, though there is YouTube now.
I've often compared early comedy channel's weekday lineup to an FM radio station (daily shows like Higgins Boys and Gruber, etc). Mystery Science Theater 3000 (a weekend show) was the King Biscuit Flower Hour.
There’s definitely a “Live From New York”-style oral history to be done about Comedy Central. Shows with outsized influence (not just TDS but Bill Maher’s “Politically Incorrect” started there), cult hits it made mainstream (MST3K), the standup->special->series pipeline that created superstars…

They won’t stop, nor will they be stopped. The only solution is to show up in numbers Big enough to moot their un-American efforts.
After Trump's lies about 2020 election, Georgia Republicans ousted Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger as chair & voting member of state election board. MAGA election deniers took control of board. Now those Trump-allied Republicans could seize control of voting in GA's biggest Dem stronghold
Trump wants to take over voting in at least 15 places
FBI raid in Fulton County GA now fueling MAGA calls for election takeover there
That would allow them to purge voters, cut polling places, limit early voting & challenge election results. Very scary for 2026

What the living hell is his blasphemer talking about? It’s not delusion. It’s lying.
Paula White-Cain at the Natl Prayer Breakfast: "We give thanks for a president who understands that faith is not a private afterthought but a public good. A president who is not merely spoken about faith, but has acted to protect it ... I've seen his compassion when no one is looking."

Thin spaghetti with olive oil, salt, pepper, TJ's 21 seasoning salute. Parm. Along with bread and butter. Gluten isn’t my friend, but the thin spaghetti is manageable. Pasta is cheap. Learn to use it.
I dunno, man, I think making spaghetti from affordable components is pretty much the same process now as it was in 1985.
