Today’s unsolicted opinion: there are no decent covers of Erasure’s “Oh, L’Amour.” Andy Bell may be the only human ever capable of conveying that amount of soul stirring yearning, longing, betrayal, & wanting to be seen as worthy by your heart’s desire, while compelling you to dance the night away.

There’s a fun board game called Chicken Caesar based on the politics of Ancient Rome. It’s a riot!

The consumer safety movement of the 70s reformed the FTC, changed auto safety standards, and passed new safety laws. That was an estimated 1.5% of the US population + a strong spokesperson/public advocate.
So imagine what 2%, 3%, or 4% of the population can accomplish. Each voice matters.
Eatables or vape.
It’s where we eat those not prepared to go through TSA, are rude to the attendants, or board first and manage to take up the overhead bin with a coat and sideways roll aboard. 🍽️
Parody Graphic: Black and white image. Sisters of Mercy logo—a line drawing of a human head with the skin peeling back at strategic and surgically placed sections over a five-point star—surrounded by a circle with the text, “A Slight Cast of Overthinking”. The original cover art was full color and included the text “A Slight Case of Over Bombing”.

Thanks for this! I never knew there was a video, and it’s gorgeous! 💖
Imagine.
Photograph: a page from the Mark Danielewski novel, House of Leaves. This is after the dedication, but before the introduction. There is only one sentence that reads, “This is not for you.”.
The other day I was chatting with a friend about the book House of Leaves. They were telling me about why they didn’t care for it. After a few a bit I reminded them of the first page after the dedication.
How about Exhuming McCarthy?
R.E.M.’s “Welcome To the Occupation” was my song of the day on Monday.

Here’s the thing, it’s a start, an opening salvo if you will. It is also on the last day of the month. So disruption will show on balance sheets.
Sure essentials will balance out, but impulse buys, fast food, entertainment, are gone.
Expect more protests for longer durations in the future.
Such serious eyes and cute pink nose!
That’s why my Jameson fountain stays packed away! Not the dying, but all the rest.

There are no words for the contempt and horror I’m feeling about this.
What pattern of lounge pants are you wearing, and how loudly do they clash with the free t-shirt you’re also rocking?
Floooof!
Photograph: A light airy bedroom, a white plate sits amongst white and blue blankets. On the plate is an English muffin topped with spinach, an over easy egg, flakes of salt, pepper, and black sesame seeds. A curious cat is sniffing and making intense eye contact with the egg. The whole picture is at a diagonal angle as if the photographer was taking the shot while lying down.
Breakfast In Bed with Cat
That’s him! Lived 9-5, and worked his fingers to the bone.
The other Other.
I mean, seriously, Ricky was a young boy.
No one will let me sit and listen to the smooth vocal stylings of Sebastian Bach tonight.
Thank you! ☺️
Thanks!
The recipe is super easy. Chop a quantity of onions, toss them is a Dutch oven and cover with water, when the water is mostly evaporated, cover the onions in water again, repeat 6-8 times, until you have the desired flavor and color, or you get bored. Season with salt, pepper, & a pinch of nutmeg.
Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.
