Low on the list of problems with the Epstein emails but still infuriating is the poor writing and misuse of the phrase “dog that doesn’t bark.“

@andrewhickey.500songs.com On a 3rd or 4th relisten of the earlier episodes and I got to thinking about that “California Girls” intro and its relation to “Jesu, Joy Of Man’s Desiring.” 1/2

Shout out to the guy loudly listening to music in his car who skipped over Buck Owen’s “Act Naturally” to leave on Carl Perkins “Blue Suede Shoes.” Just letting the neighborhood know he only listens to the original versions of famous songs.

This is the perfect time of year for room temperature water. Pour a glass of water and go to bed. When you wake in the night or next morning and take a drink it’s gonna hit soooo gooood.

I do not want to see the video of 67 people dying. I wish they would stop just showing it all the time.

I love waking up in the morning and opening the browser on my phone to see what the last thing I googled before bed the night before. Why was I googling the Disney water fairie’s name on a Saturday night?

I liked War Of The Rohirrim but I think it’s funny how even in fantasy they have the eagles make hawk sounds. #HelmShotFirst

I’ve recently gotten interested in something and I’ve been bothering my wife to try it with me. She’s been saying no, and I’ve tried not to be pushy, but tonight she finally agreed to watch Hot Frosty!

Who used to follow Niamh on the 🐦 app?
Here I am trying to find my 4565 followers from the platform that shall not be named! A looong way to go yet, despite using skybridge. Any other suggestions folks?
