Getting my M.Div in Food Science, thesis on the "Transubstantiation of Mountain Dew and Higher Orders of Caffeine Chain of Being." Will cop to knowing cop stuff. Better to be remembered as a sharp lover of sandwiches than a slick merchant of hate.

Male friendship should evolve from the celebrated "Dylan, you son of a bitch" handclasp arm wrestling greeting in Predator and more toward the confession Robert Pattinson's Neil makes to John David Washington's Protagonist in describing their mobius-enduring bond in Tenet, "We get up to some stuff."

Of course, the Uzi was a iconic and literal flex for G.I. Joe's Snake Eyes. One may wonder about proportions in the comic, but I think the Uzi kept changes sized over the 20something releases of the character in action figure form. 2/

Uzis are fine, if you need a comfy forward grip to rest your support hand, but real ones in the 80s learned the more compact minimalism of the Mac 10 from Michael Ironside's Ham Tyler I'm V: The Final Battle. Gives a primer on teflon coated bullets, though that may have been Tartikoff era misinfo 1/

Really wasn't expecting the release of the presumably Delta Green adjacent cyberpunk tinged FedEx | System Down would have been so aggressively marketed over my texts today. My guess is their pulling the Blair Witch reboot stunt, where shortly in you re Alice this is a reboot of the XXX franchise

I don't have a good Earthquake sense. No idea what a 5.6 176 miles away means, but Google sent me a sterner notice than I got during the milder but much closer earthquakes earlier this fall. I guess I may have feels for the ground beneath my feet today.

The plate of crescent rolls has a plate, maybe because the first plate was in the oven or other warmer, but I think it's like a malapropism of a different food concept.

I usually only do this when my feed makes noteworthy juxtaposition with the Moby Dick account, but sometimes two unrelated posts in my feed just speak to the moment.

RIP Mr Stoppard, you gave quite a lot.

And keep living the dream, Brian, literally.

The McRib is back.

For a limited time.

I mean, I remember FIFA traditionally as you describe it; but as of late, like a lot of global sports, this is what I associate with attendance nowadays. The global elite not really groking, so to speak, the bread and circuses thing anymore.

Dang, it's synchronicity like this where I sometimes think maybe I've gone too hard on former Senior Official Acting as Administrator of FEMA David Richardson, perhaps I should show humility.

Then I think, nah, maybe his predecessor was a Starbuck but this guy was a full on MAGA Ahab.

Senior Official Performing the Duties Federal Emergency Management Agency Adminstrator David Richardson has resigned, possibly having completed his mission to crash FEMA deep into the ground.

This summer left memories of how his tenure started, and I made one more to show how it's going.

How it started. Where it went. Star Wars version.

Saturn 3? Hardware? Split Second? Screamers? The Black Hole?

I think yes.

It's been a minute since I've had a really good Moby Dick post speaking to a subsequent post in uncanny proximity of my feed. This is just off my phone, and adjacent enough to scratch that itch.
