Shout out to the Delta flight attendant who used the in-flight announcements to do a spoken word exploration of the essence of the standard instructions.
I would use his name except one of his jokes was “My name is Guam, like the island, but the spelling is different by 9 or 10 letters.”

Florida's opening argument in their appeal of the ruling that they cannot ban books from schools is that the government doesn't owe students public school library books at all.

States buying into voucher schemes spend more money sending rich kids to schools that can discriminate and have no regulations than those states spent on public schools open to any and all. That's the dream. It's already here.
Yikes & vision of future under fed vouchers…
“Last school year, Ohio sent Columbus City Schools $166M to educate the district’s 41,587 students. Meanwhile, the state sent $328M to pay for the 30,085 students enrolled in Charter Schools and private schools.”

State Data: Ohio spent more on school privatization last year than public schools in many communities
For example, the state spent about twice as much on charters and vouchers in Columbus than they did on kids in Columbus City Schools -- Ohio's largest school district.

TFW everyone is like “No offense, Jack, but I don’t know if we really need a bard in this campaign” and then two battles in, everyone is relying on Bardic Inspiration for every saving throw.
Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

I only really know James Van Der Beke through cultural osmosis and as the self-absorbed drug dealer (and brother to Patrick Bateman) who watches Fred Savage shoot up and yell about his dick.
But he’s phenomenal in it.

Listening to a business woman describing how cool Austin is while her sister is trying to break in to describe the symptoms of a kid’s illness is making me feel all the things and taking all my “don’t nose in muscles.”
If your niece has a 104 fever, go to the ER.

The airport is already a cacophony of people’s phones and toddlers screaming and announcements of flights.
Top volume “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by Deep Blue Something is a step too far, AUS.
(I do think it’s funny that I had to look up the band name because I was like “it was something blue.”

Age verification? I saved up for 6 months to put a Fatter Agnes into my Rock Lobster for the W4r3z when I was a 2600 Mag wannabe.

This is the point where I shake my copy of Frederik Pohl’s Midas World at everyone like a street preacher.
(In this case, the “Lord of the Skies” but it really hits best if you read all of the short stories in it.)

Time and time again, weird right-wing preppers think that WTSHTF the only way to survive is going to be stealing people's supplies with guns and in actual scenarios where things go wrong, for the most part people band together to help one another. Only weirdos want to live isolated with MREs.
