This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

You olds don't need to hear this, but to you youngbloods out there, I come to you from the future: when the news begins talking about ways to save money for the holidays, rather than getting you hyped to drown in debt buying shit, that means shit is WAY FUCKING WORSE than they are letting on.

I fell asleep during the Dodgers game, woke up in the 12th inning, decided I would go to bed and wish for the best. I woke up this morning to this 1:05 am text from my 89 year old mother.

Something I love about archival films is that when someone had a couple feet of film left on a roll they'd often use it to film their cat. So many films finish with a few seconds of cats
So, here's some cats from the 1950s and 60s. They were loved
Scanned from 8mm films

Can’t believe there’s a popular musical group called the Ezra Collective. Just another sign of how this generation prefers quantity to quality, we used to demand better than that.

There have been a lot of “energy” guys over the years that can be very impactful in an 18-25 minute role and every time there is a call to get them to play 36 I’m reminded of the LeRoy Hoard line:
“You need 1 yard, I’ll get you three. You need 5 yards, I’ll get you three.”
“You need 1 yard, I’ll get you three. You need 5 yards, I’ll get you three.”
People really have no idea what athletic performance is. People talk about this like it is all NBA2K. McConnell would be cooked by halftime if they tried this.
