You should be proud of this collection. I think all your collection vignettes are clever and lovely.
Pit bulls, foster dogs, gardening, vermiculture, liberal politics, cooking, baking, the domestic arts, Jane Austen, travel. Self-professed “pick-me Catholic.” I make my own soap and my taste in music is probably better than yours. ;)

Serious question: what are the chances that checking the box of one of these conditions turns into a reason for your insurance not to cover you because it’s a pre-existing condition? Sorry if it’s a silly question there’s just so much misinformation. Anyone who knows I would love an answer

I shamefully, neglected to add that it was the sweetness and the sensitivity with which you unpacked the camaraderie and community and subtext of the jackass movies that moved me. Thank you again for this. This in Beverly Hills cop… What a doubleheader!

Final observation: Stevo is the daddy in this movie. He reminds us all that you can live through it and as @alexsteed.bsky.social mentions, you can still be kind and sweet to everyone on the plane. @youaregood.bsky.social , you have a friend and a fan for life in me.

I basically inhaled all of the jackass movies. Indeed, Niko, they should be in the criterion collection. Particularly the Butterbean scene. Is Butterbean OK? Is a remark we use weekly in my household. I love you all so much for including jackass in this podcast.

I cackled, I howled, I guffawed… Much the same way I am doing while listening to this podcast recap with my para social friends @alexsteed.bsky.social and @nikostratis.com it reminded me in the most sentimental way of my misspent youth, swinging off rope swings (dropping acid) in the Hollywood Hills

#Jackass came at me at a time when I was reaping the consequences of my choices: I had two babies under the age of two and laundry coming out out of my ears. I rented the DVD of jackass and watched it at 2 AM over five loads of laundry. @youaregood.bsky.social
can-of-leaves.bsky.social (@can-of-leaves.bsky.social)
What can I say about the @youaregood.bsky.social #Jackass episode? This is a thread. First of all, I never thought this podcast would do this movie series. Indeed, though I adore all of the jackasses without reservation, I always felt slightly weird admitting it. Two low brow, two immature?

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.

The Epstein list should be made public not because people want to know who is on it, but to give survivors justice. These women were abused, then exploited again as their trauma was used to fuel power and profit. They deserve truth, not silence, and accountability, not spectacle.

Firing the prosecutor who went after Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell doesn’t bury the scandal — it shines a brighter light on the cover-up. It’s not damage control; it’s an alarm bell.

There is literally no reason to not release the Epstein files, unless they're covering something up. There is no other explanation.
