Tonight's Wizards-Pistons game is the first Wizards game aired on a station I can watch this year and the Wizards had a 13 point lead in the 2nd half and a 6 point lead with 50 seconds to go and they managed to have it go to OT and then lose because they are terrrrrrrrrrible.

Saw Viola's Room in NYC a month back. It's like a dark audio book meets an immersive theater experience, and the music was incredible. Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun, Tori Amos' Cornflake Girl, Massive Attack's Angel, Smashing Pumpkins' Soma... I keep relvisiting its aural vibe, 'cuz that part rocked.

I don't think I'd ever seen a picture of Angus King before yesterday, but if you'd held up a picture gallery of all current U.S. senators and asked me to pick one dude out of them I was most convinced would fold a winning hand just short of it paying off, that'd be my guy.

I am not mentally prepared for "it's been 25 years since Big Cypress."

Low tire pressure light went off yesterday, so I put some air in. Back left tire was ~10 PSI below where it should be, others ~5 PSI. Checked again today to make sure I didn't have a leak. Today's cold snap had dropped 'em all 5 PSI evenly, so I brought them back up again.

This has been #DadTalk.

There is nothing I can say to which my son cannot respond by saying, "brah."

They just keep playing NFL games in places where nobody cares about professional football, like London, Berlin, and Tennessee.

It's amazing that we finally got rid of Dan Snyder as the owner of my local football team and then you all went and made a senile version of him President of the whole damn country.

I am fairly certain that Meg White was the first person to look at the additional negative cost of having fame in an internet world and say, "fuck that, I am done," and completely walk away, and that is awesome.

Finally made it to an actual Disco Biscuits show last night (only seen them before at a festival) and it was much fun. Dudes can really play, lights were awesome. Do I wish someone could actually sing and that there were, say, hooks and not just grooves? Sure, but I very much enjoyed myself anyway.

Oontz good.

Maybe they'll be playing as we walk in, like it's a Bar Mitzvah or something.

Has any football coach ever been fired mid-game? Can Maryland do it first?

"Disco Biscuits" is such a weird band name. Imagine being, like, The Funk Croissants.

There are two car washes near my house. In the past 2 years, they have been acquired by the same company, doubled their prices from ~$20 per wash to ~$40, and pushed to move customers to a subscription service with unlimited car washes for $75 a month.

Unchecked capitalism is a sham.

You should be able to combine like-minded artists without enough greatest hits of their own to float a whole Greatest Hits album. A greatest hits of the Wallflowers, Counting Crows, and Gin Blossoms album would be bangin'.

Oh wow - the Persian rug store that's had a going out of business sale running for like 20 years actually went out of business. Wonder how they let people know?

My daughter is not appreciating my wife and I singing along to the Thong Song. 🤣

One way you convince other countries to help you achieve your goals is to use your resources to support their humanitarian needs. Dismantling our aid programs was not just destructive in terms of lives lost, it will hurt us for generations by marking us as a stupid, evil, and untrustworthy partner.

I remember when John Thompson refused to let Georgetown play Maryland. When he finally agreed to schedule a game, Maryland had a freshman center named Joe Smith that no one'd heard of and they shocked everyone by winning a thriller. Glad to see these natural rivals actually playing again. #GoTerps

Talking Key & Peele in another thread and I think enough time has passed to confirm that they have not just stood the test of time, but join the small pantheon of legit all-time sketch comedy greats (Python, KITH, original SNL, Mr. Show, K&P).

🚨🚨🚨 The jury has reached a verdict. Sean Dunn, aka the DC Sandwich Guy, has been found NOT GUILTY of assault.

One way I know that Phish is off the road and no one has fired their drummer today is that the wook feed is discussing proper dishwasher loading technique.

Oh, a Michael Jackson biopic.

Yes I'm sure that won't glide over any tricky subjects.
