Are they closing the stadium parking lot because they’re afraid of fans getting in fights or something?

Good morning from the only county in VA that matters :)

Why do they have to sell special tickets, why can't people just pay the normal rate like someone going to any other sporting event in the area would pay?

People who play flight sims a lot probably could *fly* a plane relatively well, if it's the same model as the sim. LANDING on the other hand...

I just realised if a service ever goes down because a rabbit chewed through a server network cable it would be a Dental Denial of Service.

I saw that he posted on Twitter that he was feeling a bit burnt out and was taking a break.

Hey, Keith, in your broadcast today you left the name “Cindy” in a place I think you did didn’t mean to do so.

Hey are you ok?

So even a big chunk of his supporters are no longer willing to say he's not racist.

Kind of random thing here, but you mentioned the Hunt Valley Marriott in one of your end segments recently, and I just saw that they’re tearing it down.

Needs to include Ehud Barak though?

Ultimately I think this is the same argument as "Dems shouldn't try to mid-decade redistrict, just because the Republicans did it." It's basically saying Dems need to keep their white hats clean even if it means we lose and people get hurt.

That is true, but even if you have done nothing wrong, enduring a couple years being actively prosecuted by the DOJ can ruin your life even if you are ultimately found innocent, not to mention the huge legal bills.

I think the main difference was Biden was protecting innocent people from *near certain* politically motivated prosecutions, while Trump is telling people it's OK for them to break the law for him now, because on the way out the door he'll make sure they don't get punished for it?

Please send me a chat if you want to hear a bit more detail, or if you prefer email I can send info there. I'm currently auditioning narrators and building the recording setup, I would want to assure you quality that matches the audio of your other works.

Ok, I wish there already was an audio BUT... I have loved everything by you that I have listened to, and I'm about to launch a new audiobook publishing company. I'm looking for good titles to create audio to demonstrate what we can do, would you be interested in a *free* audio version?

Hi question--I got a notice yesterday from Amazon about this story, which is says is from a short story collection of yours. Is there an *audio* version of that short story collection? I was not able to find one searching on audible...

Yeah, my experience was being queasy all the time, not getting any of the appetite suppressing effects, but somehow it killed all my motivation to exercise. So even "dieting" as much as I could while taking GLP-1 for 6 months I barely lost weight.

Um... @scalzi.com any thoughts here?

Does telling the Pope, "You can be on the side of Jesus, or on the side of the USA, pick one," constitute grounds for excommunication?

My father passed last summer, and the actress they have on The Pitt who helps families after a loved on has passed could have literally been playing the woman who helped me out.

I just can't believe that guys who get paid millions of dollars a year to play a skill game can have such fragile egos that they will start a fight where they risk injuring themselves. If I was a team owner I would have every player's contract include fines from the team if they get in a fight.

Are you making an audio version?

I wonder how they will animate it if the teams have a brawl at the end of the game? :)

I would hope when people see this newer image, and see *just how thin the atmosphere actually is* relative to the size of the planet, maybe more of them will start to understand how human-driven climate change is possible. A lot of them tell themselves, "The Earth is too big for us to change it."

Wanna bet this is over the Kid Rock helicopter BS? When the Army sees inappropriate behavior and tries to maintain discipline, and then their civilian boss overrules them, that undermines order. Wouldn't be surprised if that general was incredibly pissed about it.

Curious, why did you have more details in the beak in your original art but then chose not to ink them?

Wouldn't it actually be more terrifying if the moon *did* remember us?

I can't stop looking at videos of the Hat Thrower Fungus, what a crazy way to disperse spores.
