That's what The Wire was missing that could have given the show actual greatness, a 1-800-SOBOTKA number so you could talk live with Frank Sobotka about all the problems both of youse have.
“Stranger Things” is the latest show to offer Easter eggs for viewers who try to call a fictional character. If you call the number, it really does sound like you have reached through time, space and the barrier between fiction and fact.

Jeez if only they had some Constitutional powers related to the declaration and prosecution of war, well, none of them have probably read the Constitution and Thune and Johnson have about one veterbra between them and it's the tailbone.
Congressional Republicans have been largely supportive of the Trump administration’s strikes on boats in the Caribbean Sea.
But President Trump’s declaration that the U.S. could soon bomb Venezuelan territory has put GOP lawmakers on edge.

Police around the country are using AI-powered tools to sort through evidence and perform administrative tasks.
But this police department appears to be one of the first to substitute hand-drawn suspect sketches with AI-generated images.

Silicon Valley is in an artificial intelligence boom that bears some obvious resemblances to the late-1990s dot-com boom, which birthed companies like Amazon and Google and stoked firms like Microsoft. But the mania is not a reboot of the dot-com frenzy.

We need to crack down on the transnational criminal cartels that are fueling American overdose deaths.
President Trump needs to explain how blowing up boats headed for Suriname is advancing that critical objective and how pardoning a convicted Honduran narco-trafficker is making America safer.

For @levin.bsky.social I think this is the re-recorded Brandenburg Concerto #3, third movement from Wendy Carlos in the mid-70s because the originals from Switched-On Bach were a bit torpid. It was on a special double LP of just Brandenburg Concertos and on the Switched-On CD boxed set.
