I just found out that Thomas Castellanos is from Ware County. Which means the Waycross-Blackshear metropolitan area has churned out yet another 5’11” quarterback who beat Alabama. We gotta update the map.

Fuck it let's do prompt shit. It's Friday.

What's the single best joke payoff ever? Sitcom, movie, book, play, your cousin Mort telling it to you after looking around to make sure no one hear, whatever. Give it to me.

Feel pretty dumb to not have read The Heart is a Lonely Hunter yet, but it is outstanding and very happy for whatever caused me to see the old copy for a buck.

35 years ago today I was on my way to Lackland AFB for my first day of basic. My overwhelming memory of the six weeks was singing the Air Force song every night before lights out, unless I’m totally hallucinating that.

Went to look up the lyrics and they are WILD. I had no recollection.

So, the DOGE kids intend to rewrite the social-security administration's COBOL code-base!

and they want to do it ...

... in *a few months*

I did a huge dive into COBOL a few years ago (www.wealthsimple.com/en-ca/magazi...) ...

Be furious be angry but despondency is what they want from us. And be very suspicious of people on the left who say “we are cooked” or whatever. Imagine the civil rights movement, or suffrage, or any movement for change, hitting a roadblock and just “saying well we are well and truly fucked now.”

Most punk bands can be summarized by their relationship to things that suck and what they think sucks. The most obvious examples, although there are many more, are:
Black Flag: I suck

For ten years now, I've been writing letters from Santa to my young relatives. To mark this decade, I wanted to include something really special, and after a lot of research into his workshop’s size, location and layout, I'm confident that this checks out. Hope they like it!

learned something today that will save me literally 30 minutes a week.
Maybe all Mac users know this but I recently discovered that if you have a file that you want to convert into a PDF or JPG, you can right click it, scroll down to "Quick Actions," and there are convert options right there.

You know how some streetside retail spaces stay vacant for what seems like forever? And maybe you wonder, how come the landlord doesn't just lower the rent? Turns out that often their financing deal won't allow it—a problem spreading across downtowns and shopping high streets.
