Parking should not be allowed on streets that are already too narrow for cars to pass each other.

a teenage boy just made it clear to me that he thought the shirt im wearing was advertising the two separate concepts of guns and of roses

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

Our modern times, in a nutshell.

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

It's hard to regret losing a relationship after the simple act of asking for some respect damaged it.

This is the third business I've visited this week where The Bob Ross Channel was calmly playing on one of the flatscreen TVs.

Who is going to frown in the background of billionaire photo-ops and present golden tchotchkes to Trump now?

Hey, I grew up in Lameham.

A closeup of a metal support beam covered with named photos of dogs, presumably the pets of frequent customers.

Untold Brewing in Plymouth, MA has a great way to decorate a support beam.

250 years is a nice round number for another one.

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a CORRIDOR! A room door is open, and we see two crewmen spilling out into the hallway in red and blue uniforms. They are otherwise indecipherable tho because they are entirely enveloped in a big cloud of smoke. It's pouring out all around them and into the hallway area, like there's a Phish concert in there. Closed caption reads, "[COUGHING]"

After a nice day spent relaxing and recharging at home I'm ready to do the same thing tomorrow.

We could all stop reposting clips from Sunday "news" shows where politicians are invited to lie as part of regular programming.

It's grievance and resentment all the way down.

2019/2020 Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour (Canada/USA) YouTube video by Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity

These extremely well-produced Banff Film Festival intros never fail to hype me up. I'm not into the extreme sports featured in these short films, but I almost always enjoy them. This is the intro from the festival I attended in person back in 2019.

The Cubs broadcast is focusing on the 50' stack of plastic beer cups that fans are assembling and snaking up the bleachers. Something about the pointless whimsy of it all reaffirms my faith in humanity.

Sometimes you just want to lounge in an airport bar for a while. Or a fancy dining hall bar with the same vibe.

Reeves will always be the canonical Clark Kent to me.

The only president or major party candidate in half a century not to disclose his tax returns—who fought for years, at taxpayer expense, to keep them private, and lost—now wants the IRS to MORE THAN DOUBLE HIS NET WORTH at taxpayer expense as a part of the systematic pillaging he calls a presidency.

I overheard someone behind me on his phone say, "This guy looks like a..."

I stopped and stepped aside to let him pass. We both continued walking in the same direction for a while and he spent the entire time looking back to check where I was.

Funny, my memory of herring runs is from the Wareham neighborhood where my grandparents lived. Were herring runs considered desirable features for real estate back then?

One of my elderly relatives has a Hotel California ringtone that's loud enough to wake the dead.

When you can no longer remember their name you're free.

He probably paired it with a nice Chianti.

Proposal to delete all social media accounts of anyone who has taken multiple Cognitive Assessment Tests.

We're altering our Terms of Service Agreement. Pray we don't alter it any further.

My first impressions of café options I've never tried:

Macchiato: That's even smaller than I expected. Cute cup, though.
