"Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."

"Liberals need to get out of their media bubble."
Motherfucker, I cannot get you right-wing morons to stop talking. I cannot get you to shut up. I hear every fucking conspiracy theory, self-serving lie, and cruel grift. I'm not in a leftist bubble, I'm fucking *handcuffed* to far-right media.

If it ever seems like GenX and elder Millennials are obnoxiously loud about queerphobia and, specifically, trans rights, you have to remember we grew up in a society saturated by homophobia and decided "never again". This shame and hatred must not simply be redirected. It must end with us.

This mug brings me greater joy than anything.

Ok, not ANYTHING but as much as something temporary and emptying can bring.

Here is a coffee from Leafy South Manchester. Yes, I went for a coffee with an old guitarist and we sat like a couple on Burton Road, chatting about nothing.

The historian in me: Sweden hasn't been a military power in 300 years.

The coward in me: These people were Vikings. Don't mess with them.

The historian in me: Fair point.

The sports fan in me: Oh, I think we can mess with the Vikings. It's January.

The historian in me: (Facepalm)
