Yes, but with a leftover corn cob. And another $1200 to get it surgically removed from her intestines. She ate another one a month later.

But those eyes.

Trump's Transportation Secretary on how to improve air travel:

"People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly... We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

The secret cheese sauce! A much poorer self used to work at the Columbia House call center and there was a small noble romans across the street. Scrounging up a few bucks to actually feast on a lunch of NR's breadsticks and cheese whenever possible.

Wrote about Todd Snider, East Nashville and how the more things change, the more they change.

Something good comes along, then it’s gone: Farewell, Todd Snider.
When I moved to East Nashville in 2012, legend had it that if you wanted to find Todd Snider, all you had to do was go to Drifter’s BBQ in Five Points, and he’d be there at the bar. Nashville always h...

I regret to inform you that Olivia Nuzzi's book appears to be Perfect

"I would take a bullet for you,” the Politician said. He always said that. “Please don’t say that,” I said. I always said that. From his mouth the bullet theoretical launched the bullet possible. I did not like to think about it. About the armed man at his speech. Or the armed man who broke into his home. Or the armed men he paid to guard him from armed men who sought to harm him while the federal government denied his pleas for protection from the security agency whose modern protocols were carved by the same bullets that cut boughs from his family tree and cut the track of the American experiment.

Dolly doesn't want to watch sports today and I don't want to clean the gutters and mulch leaves. We're at an impasse on the couch, unable to resolve this dilemma.

It's adorable that @iankarmel.bsky.social is early enough in his jazz-head phase that he can draft Ken Burns Jazz documentary as something to sleep to. Once he has developed elaborate and deep-seated opinions on this subject, he will long for the innocence of this time.

I feel like it degrades the real issue when we invent political reasons to hate this guy or Portnoy. Their faces are all the justification I need.

Folks. Our inability to move on from the zeitgeist of the wistful "Let's Post About The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" era is getting a little Epic Bacon. If next year's 51st anniversary continues this form of poster's madness, we may need to commission a labeler.

What in the William S Burroughs-Ass kind of future are we living in?

realitystudio.org/texts/naked-...
After a while the ass start talking on its own. He would go in without anything prepared and his ass would ad-lib and toss the gags back at him every time. Then it developed sort of teeth-like little raspy in-curving hooks and started eating. He thought this was cute at first and built an act around it, but the asshole would eat its way through his pants and start talking on the street, shouting out it wanted equal rights. It would get drunk, too, and have crying jags nobody loved it and it wanted to be kissed same as any other mouth. Finally it talked all the time day and night, you could hear him for blocks screaming at it to shut up, and beating it with his fist, and sticking candles up it, but nothing did any good and the asshole said to him: “It’s you who will shut up in the end. Not me. Because we dont need you around here any more. I can talk and eat and shit.”
