Mining fools' good since before you were born. I can either tell you who I am, or show you who I am, but on social media it's tough to do both.

Let's Care Jessica to Death

The story of an overly-protective husband and his poor wife.

Are you kidding me?! Is this... is this what good news feels like?!

My gods. I'd almost forgotten how wonderful it can feel.

I can't help but wonder about this horrible SAFE Act:

Who's more likely to have a passport, MAGA or the lib'ral elite?

What women are more likely to keep their own names after marriage, Trumpy tradwives or liberals, feminists, single moms and other menaces to the GOP "Natural Order o' Things"?

Have asked this before and always like the responses. What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes? Couple of mine:

Transformers: The Movie (1986)
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Office Space (1999)

It's true: NOBODY expected the "Spanish" inquisition.
Alford: "On Bad Bunny - we're still investigating. There's info out about the lyrics. I don't speak fluent Spanish, but if it's true what was said on natl TV, we have a lot of Qs for entities that broadcast it & we'll be talking w/ the FCC. This could be worse than the Janet wardrobe malfunction"

Age verification?

I predate cable TV AND home video. I was a virtuoso with the UHF knob on my black and white TV. I walked to school alone in 1st grade. My family got bottles of milk from a vending machine down the street. We got dressed up to go out to eat. My birth certificate's a CAVE PAINTING.
Age verification?

When I got my first pizza place check at 16, I took my family out to see Godzilla 98'... and eat pizza.

I spent WAAAAY too much money yesterday on Lunar New Year food & snacks, which only I will end up eating. 我是大胖子. Tôi sẽ rất béo.

I'm worth it 🤪. It's the year of the Fire Horse. I'm a Fire Horse: it's my auspicious 60th year. Even my Chinese name has a horse in it, so I'm considering this My Year.

Superbowl? Nah. If I want to watch people engaged in strenuous physical activity that I could never hope to keep up with, well... that's what porn is for.

I only watch porn to learn how normal people interact socially. Being shy and socially awkward myself, I study these movies and memorize the dialogue for use in public situations later.

I mean, it seems to work REALLY well for them...
I only watch porn to glean the various original contexts of their waaay bigger-budgeted, albeit entirely sexless, parody films. Y'know, "Jurassic PARK" instead of "Pork"; "Star WARS" instead of "Whores"... you know what I mean.
I only watch porn to document and advocate for the great hands-on care that nurses give to their patients.

They said liberals were trafficking children, but it turned out this was the oligarchs.

They said liberals were consuming kids' blood, but now the oligarchs ADMIT they do this to maintain their youth.

But they also said liberals were lizard people in human skin suits, and... now I'm just waiting.

Yesterday I was eating some qatayef filled pancakes. My kitten came in and stole one right out of the box, and ran away growling to murder it like a mouse.

Tonight, I heard a bonk bonk bonk sound, and in comes Tissue Box Head to visit.

That's my boy! 🤦‍♂️🤪

This piano piece was written in December 1989 in response to the murder of Romanian protesters by their government's secret police.

Seemed sadly appropriate to post it now.

Its middle section is based on a Transylvanian folksong. A translation is in the YouTube description.

The only way they can get anyone to watch "Melania."

"The worst movie I've ever seen..."? 🤔

I'd rather staple my testicles to a wind turbine in a hurricane than watch Melania.
I'd rather have a billiard stick shoved up my ass than watch Melania.
I’d rather pluck my eyelashes out with tweezers than watch Melania.
