Totally normal for a Very Serious President of America to post AI slop videos of himself, as a King, literally shitting on We The People.

Yeah. Totally normal.

Bondi is like Deedra Meero from the show Andor, but less lovable.

My youngest daughter is named Madeline, not entirely not because of those books.

Emil Bove (Republican undead hatchet man) is 43 or maybe 44.

You can just feel the warmth of human kindness radiating from him.

It's a nice ride, but it's no Trump brand garbage truck.

Hauls garbage in the back and up front.

From Google: The straight-line, or air, distance between Caracas, Venezuela, and Miami, Florida, is approximately 1,360 miles (2,189 kilometers).

So, it's much easier to load drugs and 11 guys into a small boat, for 1,360 miles, at ~40/mph than to, say, send a shipping container. It's so obvious.

I have half a dozen streaming TV services and dozens of shows I want to watch.

But I’m *this* close to bingeing all three seasons of Ted Lasso again, for the fifth time.
