“Both Yelp reviews were fantastic.”

I know I'm dating myself here, but I swear, I can hear Gilda Radner's Emily Litella character in my head: "What's all this fuss I'm hearing about Tylenol making you artistic? What's wrong with being artistic! The world needs art! Did Beethoven take Tylenol? Did Van Gogh? They must have!"

Still don't understand why someone thought they could put a date on the rapture.

September 23rd according to what? GMT? That's 4 hrs ahead of EDT, and 7 hrs ahead of PDT.

Think God gives a fuck about time zones?

Kash Patel looks like a guy who went through a session in the chair from "A Clockwork Orange", and they just stuck that way.

Every reporter with a chance to ask Trump a question needs to say this:
"Mr Trump, what makes you think you know more about autism than trained scientists and researchers who have studied it? Also, why haven't you released the Epstein files?"

Gonna tell my kids Napster was a service where you'd pay people to take naps with you.

Like Uber Eats or Door Dash but for naps.

@myrafayeturner.bsky.social How's this sound, Myra?

Cooked chorizo (can't find Andouille), then cooked chicken in the sausage grease. Sautéed peppers, onions and celery in Cajun spices, then a can of diced tomatoes, Red Hot, Worcestershire, and a cup of rice. Added the meat and let the rice cook.

Farm Aid is today.

Almost 78% of farmers voted for Trump.

I'm not saying don't donate, as farms are essential.

But I have to wonder if they see the correlation between electing Trump, and some farms having to let crops just rot, other farms going bankrupt, and their bailouts getting smaller.

Watching the "A-Team" as an adult makes me realize that this show that I absolutely loved as a kid, was really, really horrible.

People firing guns at each other constantly, and no one, not even a nameless minion of the weekly villain, gets shot. Car flips over 15 times, and the driver crawls out.

"Don't call me a racist but I'm going to make not just one, but two statements that imply someone's ethnicity had a bearing on horrible things they did."

You're a racist.
Don’t call me a racist but ABC and CBS were Jewish owners making quid pro quo deals to get other agency approvals for mergers which should have been Anti-Trust Law litigations. I looked up the ownership and every person was of Jewish descent as are most of the tech oligarchs- scary.

I dreamt I met Giancarlo Esposito at a party.

I asked him, "How in the world do you find the time to appear on pretty much every tv show that's on now?"

He laughed, put his hand on my shoulder, and told me

And then I woke up. I wish I knew what the secret was.

I find it more than a bit strange that just 2 days after her husband's murder, Erika Kirk is livestreaming a speech on YT saying "the cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry.” and "You have no idea what you have unleashed across this country and this world.”

So, just thinking about this. And I don't mean this with any judgement about anything anyone's said.

Seen a lot of people saying there's never a need or time for political violence, and differences should be settled with debate, not weapons.

I can get behind that.

But then the thought occurs

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Still little to no coverage of the 3 kids shot in a school in Colorado.
