Biden was always the noble protagonist, refocusing the ederal government's powers on supporting ordinary Americans and pulling off the economy's "soft landing" after Covid among other heroic feats. Republicans, on he other hand, were alwavs the evil-doers They were on a decades-long march to undermine democracy; forever striving to vin office without the popular vote, refusing to regulate gun ownership (ever for crazy people) as kids continued getting murdered at school; denying the country's systematically racist past (see: race-based exclusions to citizenship); using false electors to steal the election for Trump embracing antisemitism to win votes from neo-Nazis; and pushing the we're being invaded by criminal immigrants" narrative to distract from unpopular positions

Went to see Chicago Lyric Opera's take on Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. I need a recorded version of that "Porcelina" arrangement
Curtain call at Chicago Lyric Opera's A Night of Mellon Collie and Infinite Sadness. Billy Corgan in center, featured opera singers on either side, with conductor, orchestra, and chorus behind. Screen projection of stylized Chicago skyline in background looking like alternative version of the Emerald City.

These posts were next to each other in my feed, and I had to take a minute to process that “deadly fettuccine” was not part of a joke

Excerpt from Gorgeous George Wikipedia article (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorgeous_George): Gorgeous George was soon recruited to Los Angeles by promoter Johnny Doyle. Known as the "Human Orchid", his persona was created in part by growing his hair long, dyeing it platinum blonde, and putting gold-plated bobby pins in it, which he called "Georgie Pins" and distributed to the audience. He transformed his ring entrance into a bonafide spectacle that would often take up more time than his actual matches. He strolled nobly to the ring to the sounds of "Pomp and Circumstance", followed by his valet and a purple spotlight. Wearing an elegant robe sporting an array of sequins, Gorgeous George was always escorted down a personal red carpet by his ring valet "Jeffries", who carried a silver mirror while spreading rose petals at his feet. While Wagner removed his robe, Jeffries would spray the ring with disinfectant, ostensibly Chanel No. 5 perfume, which Wagner referred to as "Chanel #10" ("Why be half-safe?" he was famous for saying) before he would start wrestling. George required that his valets spray the referee's hands before the official was allowed to check him for any illegal objects, which thus prompted his now-famous outcry "Get your filthy hands off me!" Once the match finally began, he would cheat in every way he could. Gorgeous George was the industry's first true cowardly villain, and he would cheat at every opportunity, which infuriated the crowd. His credo was "Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat!". This flamboyant image and his showman's ability to work a crowd were so successful in the early days of television that he became the most famous wrestler of his time, drawing furious heel heat wherever he appeared.

This was part of the border wall plan in his first term, too - “a moat with snakes and alligators” like some kind of cartoon
