I enjoy peanut butter, I enjoy jelly and jam and preserves; often on bread.

I can't stand a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
They give me the same ick as pumpkin pie.

It looks like Reddit is finding some interesting stuff in the new Epstein file drop.

Browse with caution.

It always blows my mind that bicycle cavalry isn’t more of a thing.

Especially with modern ebikes
BUFFALO SOLDIERS ON BIKES IN YELLOWSTONE

Pictures of the 1897 Great Bicycle Ride of the Black 25th Infantry Bicycle Corps, aka the “Buffalo Soldiers,” which went from Fort Missoula to St. Louis — 1,900 miles covered in 41 days.

EISEN: Do you think the Fed made a mistake this week not cutting interest rates

HASSETT: I do

Slightly diminish a game:

Beta World

A game set in a post industrial accident world, it was bad but not so bad. There are a few mutated things here and there but it's minor. A slight uptick in pun use though and that bit sucks.
Slightly diminish a game:

Tint the Town Pink

A game of sad queer vampires meeting up for one glass of chardonnay and then calling it a night.

I went through my monastic stage like many young men.
Fuck that shit. It may be good for your bottom line but that is the only thing it is good for.

Do some shit you actually enjoy. Go be social.
Meet people, try fun foods, visit fun places.

You know how Utah will stamp do not serve on repeat DUI offenders’ driver’s licenses?

ICE and CBP should have that stamped on their drivers license.

I love when I am trying to do something urgent on battery power and the laptop is like, no brah, I just going to update instead.

As something of a professional flashlight user, I think I should move from this tactical flashlight to a logistical flashlight.

When I say that this is how the administration solves the housing crisis, I am not entirely joking.
Holy moly this chart: Cumulative US measles cases

Admin dudes are so clout poisoned that they are playing videos of the sausage being made.
“An administration official gave away the game to Punchbowl News, admitting that these “de-escalatory measures” are about placating Senate Democrats so they don’t seize this moment to demand restrictions on ICE as part of any government funding package.”

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

Today was only 26 floors but it was mostly ladders.

My ass is kicked again. Also half of my walking was through water.

It's only 6 PM and I am staying a hotel. I kind just want to go to sleep.

I have to get up early so it feels like a good idea.

This is why my beach and landscape photos never get any traction. User error. I will have to take more cat photos.
there are precisely five kinds of posts on bluesky – i'm so smart, i'm so dumb, i'm so mad, i'm so horny, and look at my cute pet – and 4 of them should be banned
