Took my old man dog to daycare to play today. He’s so wiped out that he slept through me opening the refrigerator.

I think it could be easily argued that Mamdani loves America and specifically New York far more than any conservative.

The First WORLD FENCING LEAGUE is happening April 25th!!! I'M GEEKING!!!

Japanese engineers developed this "Sword Tip Visualisation" tracking technology specifically for this event that will make it so much easier for the average person to see what's going on!

I MUST WATCH THIS ENTIRE TOURNAMENT

"Sweetheart, how many times have I told you? Don't say "and stuff". Just say "dad, there are whores here"."

It’s not great. I like both of them, but it’s definitely not their best.

“In many shamanic societies, if you came to a shaman or medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions. When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence? Where we have stopped dancing, singing, being enchanted by stories, or finding comfort in silence is where we have experienced the loss of soul. Dancing, singing, storytelling, and silence are the four universal healing salves.” Angeles Arrien in the forward to Gabrielle Roth. Maps to Ecstasy: The Healing Power of Movement. (New World Library, 1998.) pages xv-xvi

Following on Dr. Lorgia's post, Angeles Arrien writes:

critfailmemes on threads (!) "Okay so to keep the poor from rioting you give them bread and circuses" "Got it. However some of them were sneaking into the circus on their friend's login so we stopped that" "No you... you gotta give them the circuses" "We're ending the free bread program, too much of it was going to the poor"

Reno, NV used to have a large Santacon. In a year with no snow, drunk Santas decided that marshmallows were a good substitute for snowballs and had a “snowball” fight inside one of the casinos. The casino needed to replace most of the carpets. Marshmallows were banned forever from the crawl.

She's been in 45 Hallmark Channel movies. WTF!

Massive Attack, Tom Waits - Boots on the Ground YouTube video by Massive Attack

The new Massive Attack x Tom Waits track and video are worth a listen and watch.

He’s great. Also, I have an amusing Steve Winwood adjacent story. Back when my wife was younger and was making experimental noise music, a guy was over and saw a tape labeled “Traffic”. “I love these guys” he says and puts it on to discover that it’s just the sounds of cars and busses going by.

This made me think of the Dorothy Parker quote, "I hate almost all rich people, but I think I'd be darling at it."

I met someone named Tyranny once. She pronounced it like “Tierney” but it was spelled like that.

He includes the lines from the original that got cut from the radio version and puts so much vitriol into them. It's great.

AI slop is a tool of the enemy. Also, look at the proportions, the Pope is so short and wide he looks like a dwarf.

I can hear the voice of my college teacher who taught photographic lighting saying, "the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection."

Probably not what you are talking about as far as daring fashion, but every time I see my mom and I’m wearing anything other that my customary black she comments with, “hey, look at you wearing a color!”

A black and white photo of Rasputin with blue lightning coming from his eyes. Bordered in red and yellow with similarly bordered type that says, "SEX WIZARD" in a psychedelic band stye. Inspired by the Tumblr post: “I really think Rasputin lucked out, in that being remembered by history as some species of giant unkillable sex wizard is something most of us can only fruitlessly aspire to.” Tumblr poster Glumshoe

A shirt design that says: Fuck AI If i want sketchy advice from a robot I'll ask Zoltar The top and bottom lines are larger type in red that is outlined in flat gold, the middle text is smaller and white.

Two new shirt designs this week, which is what happens when your car breaks down and you can't work.

11 p.m. "Interview With a Vampire" (1994) Tom Cruise is a soulless recluse who lurks in the darkness and sucks the life from all who come near him. He's also in this movie about a vampire. Showtime.

Now that’s what they call a deus ex machina.

Thousand Island No Career just doesn’t seem like the kind of name to draw a crowd.

A McDonald’s where the sign has been reduced to McDo.

There is no McTry.

Using your debt, your search history, and your private data to decide how much you’re worth? Hell no.
This is what happens when technology is built to serve profit instead of people.
This is why every worker needs a union.

I came across a mail order snake place a while back, so it’s not just chicks.

A tricolor dog looking at me from next to a dining table.

What a timely post. This is my exact current situation.

I made a shirt inspired by the famous Rasputin Tumblr post.

Challenger explosion, live in US History class. 😬

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.
