I used to spend a lot of time on Twitter as patman23, but Elon Musk turned it into the proverbial Nazi Bar.
I used to blog a lot about Game of Thrones, but that's just sad to bring up, I feel. (I'm happy to talk about Game of Thrones though, pleasantly.)

Hey, I've heard two different podcasters suggest that Ser Arlan of Pennytree fought on behalf of the Blackfyres.

That is slander!

Ser Arlan fought against the Blackfyres - his squire was killed in battle versus an odious Blackfyre supporter (I won't give more details, since that detail might -

Age verification? I can remember Apollo capsules coming back from the moon and parachuting into the Pacific.
Age verification? I remember the Watergate hearings.
Age verification? I can remember the O.J. Simpson trial.

The most recent A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms episode was available last Friday, but even with the early release, I'll be tagging the following posts with the AKOTSKSpoiler hash tag. Unless I forget to do so...

All the isms have to go? Like capitalism? Interesting.
BRENNAN: Do you think the president needs to apologize for the video?

REP. TONY GONZALES: It's up to the president. There's no room in the country for racism, antisemitism, socialism -- all the isms need to go. What no one is talking about is the video was about election integrity.

I am mostly aware of Bad Bunny from his appearances on SNL, but I'm looking forward to his halftime show, knowing that at the same time, the worst people will be tortured by Kid Rock.

I am a lukewarm football fan at best, but I will be watching the 🥇🦉show tonight.

I've been transferring miniDV tapes from Grace's childhood onto my laptop, and I recently transferred over a 2nd grade musical presentation where Grace was in the chorus for a story about a young frog unsatisfied with their lot.
I won't recap the plot, but at one point, the kids sang this song:

I'm heading out into the cold to get a haircut (more than one individual hair will be cut)

Cold weather won't leave until I sacrifice my mountain man look.

Found this old photo of me (from around 1988 or 1989) waiting for my match in a stick fighting competition.

Talk about Fake News - Columbus discovered the USA?
He was arrested by the Inquisition-era Spanish for crimes against humanity and mismanaging the New World territories

Just watched the 4th episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (titled "SEVEN") and I am emotional, my friends.

Great job on the adaptation!

Leep, the new episode is available! I'd like us to watch it tonight.

Amazing!

Good morning and Happy Groundhog's Day, everyone! With grit and determination, we will make it through this Monday.

I can explain it to you, Mike. The first batch of votes counted are no more important than the last batch. They all have to be counted. If your candidate is ahead in the early period of voting you don't get to decide that enough votes have been cast.
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"
