In Asheville at sunset to see the penultimate show of Murder By Death's farewell tour. Will probably have a beer. Good chance I'll tear up. Great band.

Just waiting for someone to launch "Memento Mori" but they think that memento in the phrase means "keepsake"
The latest iteration of this doomed cycle is... a product that shows us what it would be like if you could pull up an avatar of a dead loved one on your phone whenever you wanted to and "talk" with them. www.welcometohellworld.com/for-all-thei...

Going to get even more severe on this point: under Woke 2 the only allowable magazine profiles will be of Hero Workers and their enriching hobbies. Anything else is too corrosive to our shared society
i have a new idea: every time someone wants to write one of those "everybody's buying red cars lately-- is Masculinity in Crisis" they should just interview one random person about the stuff they're into and publish that as the article.

Say what you will about social media, but there was no other point in history where you got to read thousands of people trying to explain Catholicism directly to the Pope

It's the slight cant to the mask that gives this image off-the-charts cartoon energy, like Vader's just accidentally eaten a ghost pepper or there's a Tex Avery awooga situation going on with Sabé.

It's almost like when you tax the rich in a place you get to make that place a better place and even the rich just looking out the windows of their limos at most of that place in passing prefer to think "oh, that looks nice" rather than "I must prepare my bunker for the impending apocalypse"
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Sitting in my chair, saying "auroral oval" over and over again...
Here is one satellite pass over North America last night showing the auroral oval extended close to the U.S./Canada border.
This was a bit after the height of the activity. I downloaded the raw image this morning, and it's super cool to see this view of the aurora.

I'm carrying Wampler's torch for a razor-sharp Needful Things remake. Seems right in Zach Cregger's or Rian Johnson's wheelhouse, and no better time than now to tell that story.

Edgar Wright's 'Running Man' is now in theaters, so are there other King movies that could use a remake?

"This could take down Democrats, too."
I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

One of the most incredible auroras I've ever seen. The overhead corona was unbelievable. The most intense reds and greens. ❤️💚😍💃 She'll be dancing until sunrise.
I visited Franconia Sculpture Park over summer and it has been on my aurora photo bucket list ever since. That's where I went last night.

Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"
