No one talks much about that guy in the middle there these days, and I'd say it's a shame that he's fallen out of the Overton Window.

A fake old police report. The gist of it, in the report - "NARRATIVE: -AS TOLD TO DETECTIVE JOSEPH SULLIVAN- IN THE AFTERNOON OF 120769 PATROLMAN HARLAN MERCER WAS HANDLING TRAFFIC DETAIL AT THE INTERSECTION OF MAIN & BALLMER STREETS. AT APPROXIMATELY 1335, GROUP OF CHILDREN WERE BEING LED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC BY A SUBJECT IN WHAT APPEARED TO BE A SNOWMAN COSTUME. PATROLMAN MERCER YELLED 'STOP' IN AN ATTEMPT TO PREVENT THEM FROM CROSSING AGAINST TRAFFIC, BUT THE CHILDREN AND SUBJECT ONLY HALTED FOR A BRIEF MOMENT BEFORE CONTINUING ACROSS BALLMER STREET. DUE TO THE SHOCK OF THE "STUNNING REALISM" OF THE SNOWMAN COSTUME, PATROLMAN MERCER SWALLOWED HIS WHISTLE AND THE GROUP CONTINUED SOUTH TOWARD HUDSON PARK AND BOTANICAL GARDENS, PATROLMAN MERGER WILL BE ON SICK LEAVE FOR TWO WEEKS AFTER SURGERY TO REMOVE THE WHISTLE FROM HIS THROAT. END OF REPORT."

Just sent off the release letter to Pearson, so rest assured that, if your international student will be using the upcoming edition of the "Exploring Science Year 8" textbook, my Fake Baby Soda Ad will continue to make an appearance.

Roughly a year ago, @dinkinswhite.bsky.social wanted to read THE DEAD ZONE, so I got her an old mass market copy for Christmas. She had not read @stephenking.bsky.social much before. Now, this is one of our smaller bookshelves.

There are 4 types of guys online. No exceptions.
Screenshot of that Clickhole.com piece, "Which One of My Garbage Sons Are You?" A photo of the garbage sons, and "I’ve got some shit boys. My huge beautiful wife gave me children who think and speak like the toilet. I have four garbage sons: The first son is named Royce, the second son is named Preston, the third son is named Lance And Blake (two names for just one son), and the fourth son is the dreaded Laramie. Which one of my toxic sons are you? Take this quiz to find out!"

Dulce et Decorum Est By Wilfred Owen Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs, And towards our distant rest began to trudge. Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots, But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind; Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots Of gas-shells dropping softly behind. Gas! GAS! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time, But someone still was yelling out and stumbling And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime.— Dim through the misty panes and thick green light, As under a green sea, I saw him drowning. In all my dreams before my helpless sight, He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning. If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace Behind the wagon that we flung him in, And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin; If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs, Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,— My friend, you would not tell with such high zest To children ardent for some desperate glory, The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est Pro patria mori.

My god. At least three issues on MASH. Kids loved MASH I guess? I am late Gen X and this seems excessive.
DYNAMITE’s first issue. MASH with Alda and Burghoff. More MASH. Alda, Farell and Morgan. “New Men on MASH” Yup. More MASH on Dynamite magazine. Celebrating the 10th anniversary in 1982, as all kids were observing.
