Man Who Thought Fleetwood Mac’s ‘The Chain’ Was Over In For Thrill Of His Fucking Life https://theonion.com/man-who-thought-fleetwood-macs-the-chain-was-over-in-for-thrill-of-his-fucking-life/

It’s funny that everyone thinks all of the weird paper shuffling and obfuscation was evidence of a broader conspiracy and not that several agencies knew Oswald was erratic and bound to do something random. They just all tried to cover the fact they were paying attention but not enough attention
We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

every half-baked big money journalist is now trying to do the “my life a movie” thing but damn, that movie is not good

am sure this absolutely sucked to deal with but this also looks like the cover for a killer circa-2009 indie rock EP
remembering that time a kitchen cupboard fell off the wall.

SCULLY: I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Mulder is telling the truth: we have captured Bigfoot. He’s in the lab right now.

PATEL: Can we say it’s woke? That we caught Woke Bigfoot?

Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

this is in the "what if a make-a-wish kid's wish was to say the n-word" level of stupid hypothetical
Hypothetically. If complimenting trump meant that there would definitely be 2026 elections and the Dems would sweep Congress in a landslide , would you compliment Trump ?

Or, Is is that thought so abhorrent, you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. Even at the expense of staying the minority?

I keep seeing the media say crime is down but people feel like it is up without mentioning the role of phone notifications and social media like Nextdoor, Ring Alerts, and Facebook Groups that not only make people more aware of any crime nearby they wouldn’t have known about in the past… (1/3)

One of the best parts of the X-Files is how average all the cars are. All those rental sedans the agents are driving. Some random beater the randos are driving. I think the product placement in the first movie was a Mercury sedan?

I know this premise on Alien: Earth about helping sick kids is serious but I keep thinking about Cancer Boy from Kids in the Hall and how that’d play out if they put him in a synthetic body (still insufferable)

My friend was helpfully telling me to drink fluids and eat healthy after getting vaccinated, as if the few hours’ behavior afterward were important. I went to the county drive-through vaccination place and then to the McDonalds. Just chomping those fries and hollering on the way home.
I got a flu booster today and it made me reflect on the sense of national accomplishment I felt when I drove to a public facility, waited in my car until my number was called on an app, and got my first covid jab. It's fucked the right gets to erase what a moment of technological liberation that was

People hate doing laundry for some reason, but I love it. You gather up something, group it, and you put it in a magic machine or two and it comes out ready to go. I’d throw my kitchen or bedroom in a machine if I could

It's all third spaces, baby. Used to go bowling, used to cover Skynyrd in the garage, used to have a car club. Now we've got Theo Von on in the F-350 on the way home from your 11-hour workday.
Though I'm actually a bit confused on the causation. The idea that American masculinity prevents friendships between men sounds totally plausible to me, but are masculinity norms *that* much worse now than they were in 1990? Something has to explain the huge shift.

This @today.yougov.com poll is why I'm going to become the Joker.

The US murder rate in 2024 was likely down nearly 30 percent relative to 2020 and down nearly 50 percent relative to 1990.
