@eephusasher and @urban_asher combined into one great taste. Hiding here as the world crumbles around us.
You ever think about how talking pictures had only been around for FIFTEEN YEARS when Casablanca was made, and it still hasn’t been improved upon.
You ever stop and think about CASABLANCA? You ever stop and think about "Welcome back to the fight, this time, I know our side will win?" You ever think about a bar full of people defiantly singing La Marseillaise, played by a soundstage full of Jewish refugees? You ever think about CASABLANCA??????

Just saw that Xing Zhilei, the Chinese DIY influencer, posted an update on his self-built cat town which went viral last year.

Pretty sure you could offer me a two-week all expenses paid vacation in my favourite place in the US right now and I wouldn’t take it
I was at a concert last night and the band said their usual lighting and sound people weren’t with them on tour because the US wouldn’t let them in (or they didn’t want to risk the border) from *Canada*. Also they made the band submit their song lyrics for reviewq
I would like to see more noise being made about this situation. If major league baseball players can't get into the country to do their jobs, what's going to happen for the World Cup? The Olympics?? just regular people trying to live???

“Companies operating food delivery robots will not be allowed to expand across parts of Wicker Park and Logan Square following overwhelmingly negative feedback from neighbors, the local alderman said Monday.”

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

yesterday while on foot patrol I saw some eyes looking at me from under a bench. I investigated and found a Gilmore Girls vinyl and I posted a joke in a signal chat and someone checked it out, determined it was a dumped stolen package, and got it to the address.

Here’s the really pernicious part of *be seen* pedestrian campaigns. This driver argued the person he hit was legally 100pc at fault cause he was wearing black. Gambit failed, but those campaigns create unrealistic expectations. h/t @davethompsonvic.bsky.social

Driver who claimed the pedestrian he hit was to blame loses challenge
The driver argued unsuccessfully at B.C.’s Civil Resolution Tribunal that he was “0% responsible” because the pedestrian was wearing dark clothing and carried no lights.

The importance of etiquette and sportsmanship looms so large in curling that when you point out a potential rule violation, people tend to weaponize it and get self-righteously over-the-top offended.
“Obviously I’m a rule-following good guy so fuck you for suggesting otherwise.”
