I just heard an ad for Unisom, and the pitch was that a good night's sleep will help you keep you sharp for your Fantasy Football league play and... is that really a thing? Is your Fantasy Football keeping you up at night?

Don’t tell anyone, but I put Dr Scholl’s inserts into my Doc Martens today, and I feel like I’ve crossed some sort of Rubicon. Anyway, I’m expecting brochures to places with names like “shady pines” any day now

Johnson is a fascist who hates democracy.
In a shocking moment, Speaker Johnson refuses to swear in newly-elected Democratic Rep.

I've had to explain both "Groypers" and "Gooners" to people this week, and I'm not sure which I feel worse about.
Anyway, don't google either one. You're better off.

The craziest thing about this Cracker Barrel story is that Donald Trump was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein for decades and publicly admitted to trafficking young women to him out of Maralago.

I'm old enough to remember when Evangelicals™ were certain that KISS meant "Knights in Satan's Service." Are those same Evengelicals™ on board with KISS being hand-picked by their Second Cumming to be 2025 Kennedy Center Honorees?
these are the thoughts that wander into my mind.

My parents raised me following the wisdom of Dr. Spock (not to be confused with the logical Vulcan from Star Trek) and Dr. James Dobson. Both of them kinda sucked. Anyway, James Dobson just died, and that doesn't make up for the damage he did.

I would like it if things would not suck for just a little while. Can that be arranged? I'll pay extra.

I know enough about the Labubu phenomenon to understand what it’s all about (remember Beanie Babies?…not that different) but I have managed to never see one either in person or online, so I can only imagine what this fetish looks like

Good news! I finally killed that fly that's been vexing me all day. Bad news! I took a sip of wine and thought I got a piece of cork in my mouth. I took the piece of cork out and discovered that it was a fly.

After a 2.5 mi walk this morning, which featured only the normal amount of pain, I cleaned out a car and must have twisted myself in a funny way because my back started hurting in a way it hasn’t for a while. I tried to stretch it out, and only managed to make it worse…

not a spoiler, but if you're watching a certain Superhero movie, i hope you aren't as bothered by how daylight works on different hemispheresas I am. This is my main beef. I can belive a man can fly, but the planet is round. it MUST be.
still liked it, though.

Saw the touring company of the Life of Pi stage production yesterday. I've never read the book/watched the film. I had no idea what to expect, other than I knew the lead ends up on a boat with a tiger.

At the Elvis Costello Radio Soul tour show. Saw a guy wearing an EC “This Year’s Model” t-shirt. He was definitely not this years’s model. None of us here are.
