48. Portland, the second one, next to Vancouver, the first one, in Oregon, the world's largest trailer park. Queer. Autistic, but the scary kind. Tired. Managed by an orange cat. Likes beer and dislikes posers. May be able to count cards.

Seriously got lit up by someone for spending $7 on a beer as being "petit bourgeoisie" and...

1. It's fucking Portland.
2. I still live in the hood and don't have a trust fund
3. LET PEOPLE ENJOY A BEER FER FUCKSAKE
I keep seeing random flashes of “NO they’re PETIT BOURGEOISIE” being argued about various arguments, and look, I’m begging you to understand that we have to update our understanding of Marx for a modern economy.

"Did Vandy cover the spread?"

or

"Vanderbilt has pulled their starters with five minutes left in the 4th"

...which of those was weirder to hear today?

It could happen. It's not a for-sure thing. But Vandy has a damn good argument to come dancing.

yeah but my dude PSU or Idaho was one of the scheduled games early so let's be real here, timing matters but it's not like the Pac-42 was skipping the daintily sized desserts.
When Oregon was in the Pac-10 every team played every other team in the Conference. That meant 9 conference games, while the SEC broke itself into two divisions and played only 8, and week 10 as always a cupcake.

It's like politics in the South -- they avoid competition by rigging the system.

Yeah but Vandy having a cupcake...and the cupcake is Kentucky...is a hell of a Week 13 storyline.
This was last Saturday on College Game Day. Oregon talking shit… NBD. Welcome to the conference. All the BIG Conferences schedule cupcakes for a week… ask him about Montana State. Then check scheduling. The SEC is the toughest schedule period. “You play to win the game!” 💕 Big 10 fan

TIP: Anyone who posts wild speculation as something that is “almost certainly” the case right now is ~almost certainly~ someone you should not rely on in moments where news is breaking and a story is rapidly developing.

Location: Bagel Hole of Park Slope.
Bagel: Onion preferred but if it's hot garlic or everything work.
Cream cheese: Scallion. The way G-d intended.
Toasted: I said Bagel Hole of Park Slope. You can ask them to toast. Send me video.

(BHPS doesn't toast, also the way G-d intended.)
Tell me your bagel order and I will tell you *based on NYC cultural expectations* if you have won or lost your election for political office in NYC.
One of my favorite things about NYC is whenever anyone runs for office here they are required to disclose their bagel order.

Sometimes I think about the fact that the man I forced to retire from his plum position in the federal judiciary for sexual harassment represented Donald Trump in his Twitter lawsuit appeal and how one of his former clerks was Brett Kavanaugh and another former clerk was Trump’s former head of OLC.

This is a great video not just for the E. Max Frye cameo, the Robert Longo/Gretchen Bender direction...and the shots which are Quincy Jones going nuts in Manchester with a camcorder but the song's one of the hardest hits of serotonin you can get.

Reminder: the apparent plan was to spirit these children away in the middle of the night without them ever seeing the inside of a courtroom to challenge their deportation. Children.
A little before midnight, Ensign reported that three of the four children are back with ORR. Once the final child and another child newly a part of the class (who was not on a plane on Sunday) are with ORR, Ensign says DOJ will file another status report. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is one of the ways that white supremacy weaponizes civility: by implying that certain people get to be served, and other kinds of people (you know what kinds) need to be grateful, without interrogating it.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”

Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.

No questions asked.

No proof required.

Pass it on.

BTW, I always hear people complain that Plaid Pantry wants to scan your ID.

It retains NO information other than your birthdate being validated and how much over 21 you were. Not your name, not your height, not your eye color.

Online age verification would involve facing. Y'all know what >>
Online age verification is not like "showing ID to buy alcohol" because

a) the liquor store doesn't get to scan your ID and store a digital copy of it forever in a database that will inevitably get hacked

b) you don't have to show ID to go to the library because they have cocktail recipe books
