@stephenking.bsky.social I'm reading You Like it Darker. Re: Two Talented Bastids. The alien shows them some of his collected treasures, including a signed picture of Judge Judy. This takes place in 1978. Also, they have 3 EpiPens, which were not approved for commercial use until 1987. What gives?

In approx. three days, Disney has lost abt $3bn & counting. Millions of ppl have canceled subscriptions, vacations, etc. It's amazing to see but horrible that we have to do it at all. Free speech shouldn't be under attack but since it is, I love seeing the good folks of the world fight back.

Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. It's still the Department of Defense. Just like it's still the Gulf of Mexico. Just like the other place is still the Twitter. Just like he’s still in the Epstein files.

If I'm ever killed by a bear/mountain lion/other animal, do not kill the animal. Rest assured it was my fault. I can guarantee you that I thought about the risks but decided that the animal in question not only wanted but NEEDED hugs and pets and tummy rubs and then proceeded to give it all I had.

Extremely dangerous. Extremely hungry. Extremely tired. Extremely dirty. I had forgotten just how much Freida McFadden loooooves to use the word extremely. Geez. I don't know how much more I can take.

If I had a penny for every time Freida McFadden writes "purple circles under his/her eyes," I'd have enough money to own the world. It is sooooo damn annoying. Dozens of times in every single book she writes. Ugh. Made it to page 60 in this new book before she said it.
