He was awarded the Medal of Honor two weeks before he turned 20. (He enlisted at 15, lying about his age.)
I mean, when I saw TO HELL AND BACK at like 8/9 years old; I didn’t believe Audie Murphy played himself. He looked far too young and boyish to be a soldier.

I always preferred Duncan Hines mix anyway. But yeah, especially if you have The Betty Crocker Cookbook (I have my mother's old one from the '60s), those recipes are now broken.

betty crocker shrank their cake boxes instead of raising prices and now a huge % of recipes that use them no longer work. meaning there's no point in buying a mix at all.

Last year Betty Crocker shrank the size of their cake mixes. Decades of cake-mix-based recipes are now broken. www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/ar...

Explain your @: Short version, it's "Red October" in Russian.
Long version: in college there was a multiplayer online game called "mtrek", a text-based Star Trek-inspired battle game. A common ruse was to log in on two terminals so you could play two ships at once and gang up on other players.

Explain your @: go back to the far distant past, specifically to 1989. I bought my first computer, to run SCO XENIX (I was working at SCO at the time). I needed a domain name. I went through dozens of non-original names, taken from F/SF. "Kithrup.com" wasn't taken!
Explain your @.
My grandfather, whom I miss dearly, told my mother he would give her $500 to name that baby ANYTHING ELSE.
I am amazed, to this day, that my name is not Anything Else McGuire.

NEW: Harrison Ford endorses Kamala Harris.
This is impactful, in part because it comes from someone without a long track record of endorsing candidates.

@mutualaidvoid.bsky.social Friend of mine whose kid could use a new chair. 💸💕
Hi, Link. First time doing this. My kid (24) needs a replacement wheelchair and because they’re only a part-time wheelchair user, insurance won’t cover it. We (parents) are not currently in a financial position to help out. They asked me to boost their GoFundMe and I thought of you.
