Welp, now I've done it.
I officially informed my employer of my intent to retire in 366 days. It's just a coincidence that if I give them at least 365 days' notice, I'll get a bonus.
August 27, 2026 can't come fast enough.

Lawler obviously is delusional if he thinks the thin-skinned racist pedophile would ever apologize for anything, let alone to the Obamas (and the rest of the non-white world). His base, also racists, would see that as weakness, and that's anathema to him.

This President is a disgrace and every Republican should have to answer for Trump's disgusting behavior.

The Netherlands will transfer transformers to Ukraine and allocate 23 million euros to support Ukraine’s energy sector, Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal said. The assistance is aimed at strengthening energy infrastructure amid ongoing Russian attacks on critical facilities. #Ukraine

Don't worry, Mark, Donnie will conveniently forget your name, face, record, and history when you lose. It'll be like you never existed, so this won't follow you around for the rest of your life or anything.

Probably All Around the World, or The Myth of Fingerprints - Paul Simon but Always Look on the Bright Side of Life - Monty Python would be a close second.
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.
Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?
Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

In protest, he should skate to John Cage's "4'33"."
From @theathletic.com: Spanish figure skater Tomàs-Llorenç Guarino Sabaté was told just days before the start of the Winter Olympics that he cannot use his signature Minions music mix. He has only a few days to find new music and sync it to his two routines.

Wait, Corky's gay? How? I mean, what about his wife, Bonnie? He buys all her clothes, y'know.
For me, his best stuff comes during the closing credits. The MY DINNER WITH ANDRE action figures, and the REMAINS OF THE DAY lunchbox...Brilliant stuff.

Rewatching Waiting for Guffman for Catherine O'Hara reasons and Christopher Guest is so great in this because obviously he's playing a camp-gay character but he's giving him so many little awkward touches and mannerisms that have nothing to do with that

I'm starting to think the shitty redaction work was done on purpose, to further delay the release of any more documents, while the redactions are double- and triple-checked.
Expect to see any REAL docs right around January 22, 2029.

Had myself a mini Catherine O'Hara film festival this weekend, watching BEETLEJUICE, BEST IN SHOW, WAITING FOR GUFFMAN, A MIGHTY WIND, AFTER HOURS and THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
She was so good in everything, but that pause that closes "A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow" was just perfect.
