Philly people: lots of words will get your post into the feed linked below, such as “Schuylkill” or “cheesesteak” or “Phanatic.” If your post is Philly-specific but doesn’t have obvious Philly keywords (“Someone just mooned the Portal”), stick a single 🔔 somewhere in the post & it goes in the feed.
If you were rich and really believed this, why would you participate in 21st century society at all? Move to French Polynesia and live on a beachfront volcano or whatever.

I’m fascinated by the logistics of crimes like this. 800 pounds of fajita meat shows up at prison every week and somehow gets resold elsewhere without anyone realizing? Who is regularly buying prison fajita meat?
I remember seeing a story years ago where a prison cook was caught having stolen $1.2 million of fajitas over 9 years.
One week he took off sick, someone else answered the order call and was like "what are you talking about? We don't serve fajitas."

I'd say yes on "aliens" if that means any insect-sized or larger creatures that have evolved on other planets in the universe (which is a very big place).
New polling on aliens
% of U.S. adult citizens who believe the following definitely or probably exist:
Aliens 56%
Bigfoot 28%
The Yeti 23%
The Loch Ness Monster 22%
Chupacabra 16%

Coming to Netflix in time for Thanksgiving, "Perducken: A Person on the Inside of a Duck on the Inside of a Chicken." From Ryan Murphy.
Just realized that in consecutive weeks, Netflix released "The Beast in Me" and "A Man on the Inside." Somebody in Netflix development has a very confused idea of internal biology.

Bravo show where they tell a tacky near-billionaire and his weird third wife that he’s president, put him in a White House facsimile and let him gild the shit out of it, and the cameras roll the whole time while their tawdry lives unfurl, QUEEN OF VERSAILLES-style.
yeah, I definitely don’t want to get anyone in trouble, but apparently her boyfriend is an open secret. he has Secret Service detail/nickname & she spends a lot of her time with him. I seem to recall he was initially a trainer or something extremely cliche.
