Welp, whatever Democrat wants to primary Adam Gray for CA-13 has my vote!

I’ll even back one of the less intelligent Condit scions. (Condits are our own Family Dollar Kennedys. Gray used to be married to one. There’s no escaping them.)

When you read the barely coherent emails it's easier to understand why rich tech pros like ChatGP.

Every time someone posts a screenshot of one of the Epstein emails, I pause and think “this one has to be fake; don’t get fooled into reposting a spoof.”

But then … they’re all real?

Into the fridge goes cookie batter: generic recipe but made with browned butter, mix of dark brown and toasted sugar, all the pfeffernusse spices, and brandy-soaked candied pineapple.

The batter is so glossy that I may have to bake them as little cupcakes instead, but that's tomorrow's problem.

Ok yes, everyone knows that overanalyzing jokes makes them not funny, but the thing about this post is that it is actually historically accurate!
Let me go point for point (if you are interested):

As fall/winter holidays merge, we have our winner for bridging Halloween and Christmas. Santa Skeleton’s plans for bad children may be worse than coal in the stocking.

If Oscar Isaac weren't already awesome enough, he understands and appreciates the meaning & purpose of the details of his #Frankenstein costumes.

Having become annoyed with American pfeffernusse recipes, I realized that my German, while rudimentary, is sufficient for reading a recipe (I just can't read the 83 paragraphs of SEO verbiage before it).

Everyone's Oma made them differently. The only point of agreement is honey, not molasses.

Carol's grandparents have taken over her dining table to make protest signs. They very much want Chuck Schumer "out" as Senate Minority Leader, due to his lack of backbone. Thus the slogan: "Schumer is not fit to lead / Sells us out to watch us bleed."

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Can't stop thinking about the gorgeous fever-dream that is Guilermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

WHERE Victor gets his funding is a good touch to point forward to the realization that in today's world, Victor would still be an awful person, but he'd be treated as a rockstar "disruptor" like Theranos.

Yesterday's adventures included a trek through fog to an estate sale in rural Madera County, dripping in mist and silence, only interrupted by workers in high-viz jackets trying to get people to buy at stupidly high prices.

THE BALLAD OF SANDWICH MAN

This is the taLE of Sandwich Man,
Whose aim was straight and true,
Who fought for his home with deli meats
As any man should do.

Border Patrolman Lairmore
Wore armor thick snd strong
When he felt the sting of a whole wheat roll
He shouted, “This is wrong!!

I found a rare photo of Parsley's likely kitty-daddy (right, the short-haired cat), and yep, they really do look alike. They have the same passive resistance to being carried, same fur texture, and same obsession with reflections. We never figured out Mr Smiley's origins or home.

In 6 months we'll get stories about 3 people who actually left NYC after Mamdani won and they'll say shit like "I couldn't bear to see my city destroyed" and then it will turn out they lived there for 9 months but had no friends so they went back to their parents' 2nd home in suburban St. Louis

Yesterday I let too many on the right steal my joy about the sweeping Democratic victories. Today, I'm taking back my joy and spreading joy. I've watched some cool interviews lately:

1) The Magnificent Others: Steve Vai

2) The Magnificent Others: John 5

3) Rick Beato: Neal Schon

All on YouTube.

Look I don’t get any food aid from the govt, never have, but if a grocery offered discounts to people who had lost SNAP? Not only would I NOT feel cheated in some way, I’d be more likely to shop there, on the grounds of “at least they have some human decency”

I think that ban is wrong.

The Official Spokescat is annoyed that I keep showing him my feed and exclaiming “here’s a cat who looks just like you!”

In my defense, there are a lot of brown fluffy tabbies out there.

An important part of the reason for the FALSE portrayal that people who get SNAP don’t work is so that people don’t realize the problem is the companies who don’t pay a living wage.
