Mr Lane Attoe.
I have very few interesting stories to tell, so I quip. Things aren’t as bad as they seem — they’re worse. There is no 4th neutrino.

oh that’s brill
Have used auto insurance through Costco (online, with a few direct contact instances) for years w/o any big issues. I think it’s American Family Connect. I always have to look it up. 🙂 Recall getting a rate reduction on one occasion when I modified our annual mileage, as you describe.
My problem is that I keep joining new, earlier clubs and it’s getting ridiculous. Today it’s midnight, 1AM, now 2AM…
That wasn’t your first analysis? 🙂
Wear it like a badge of honor! 🙂
Overstimulation can be problematic. Less may indeed be more (healthy).
💯
I just now realized the last enjoyable, uplifting, essentially watchable Olympic Games for the remainder of this decade will be next February. That’s it. 🙁@edgeofsports.bsky.social
Uh… except all of the rw lying about those facts mean *a lot* more than the facts themselves. In fact, facts no longer matter. <— true fact
Imagining everything since Nov 2016 and it all tracks. Oh wait... no imagination required.
“The broken water slide was closed for the remainder of the trip.” YA THINK?!
But the *audience* is dumber than we’d like to admit.
Too much dog hanging out? Or just the right amount? 🤔 @brianstack153.bsky.social @joanwalsh.bsky.social
lovely
Play Misty for Me ⬆️
Seems like you could sub several other locations in that dig, as well!
Except I kinda like it when it’s directed back at them, as with South Park. Damn… we’re playing down to their level… 🙁 @yourmandevine.bsky.social
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Everything everywhere is fiction all at once.
Oh I got that reference right away. Good one.
77M of us wanted this, and a few million more couldn’t be bothered. Hard to save us from ourselves at this point, I guess.🙁
Spot on. And it doesn’t bother me one bit.
@latenightseth.bsky.social Damn, that ratings sketch was *tight*. 4/5 ⭐️
Clearly a porpoise impression.
It would be difficult for it to not turn into The Onion.
This is so good.
I’m starting to really like this idea.
🎵Any way you look at it, you lose 🎵
I feel a bit scarred having read this.
Are you kidding me? Almost every day I hear of yet another human atrocity that had never occurred to me before. Don’t ask me to list them.
👆Same. All of it.
The problem with de-intellectualized American voters in a nutshell!
Knowing how much of a challenge confirmation of the previous nominee was going to be, another candidate could have been presented, yes? @chrislhayes.bsky.social
metaphor
Except for the 77M happily drinking the kool aid they all willingly made themselves.
How do you stay awake?!
I hear ya
Woof!
We are Sisyphus. And we are also the rock. 😩
Personal valet for Pedro Pascal. (I’m guessing.)
Innate human tendencies win out.🙁
So much better! 😂
Worth a read.👇
Sonofabitch… you talkin’ straight to me here! Good stuff, man.
Yes, but… there’s woods on Mars?

We may not actually want to hear any joke Nate Silver might attempt to crack!
Sunday Best is a truly excellent documentary on Netflix. Shocked to discover the director, Sacha Jenkins, died just 2 months ago. @marymcnamara.bsky.social @joanwalsh.bsky.social
I think both of those things are unchangeably correct. No “or” about it.
Caligula?
💯 😂
Gotta hand it to you on that one.
Kroger?
This limited series on britbox is absolutely brilliant. @marymcnamara.bsky.social @joanwalsh.bsky.social
A moment of levity.
ha like we’ll even have f’ing future to look back from
But are they screwing it up if they’re doing it exactly as intended?
Yep, that’s about right.
Accurate take.
This Epstein thing is like a poison oak rash that he can’t quite calamine away.
Benefit by association! 🙂
Ok you win.
Oh I love that second one.
TACO, perhaps?
⬆️ yep
👆V convincing.
Can confirm. You are absolutely correct.
That one will stand the test of time!
You paint a very compelling and believable picture. Not a dream-killer for me because I fully expect whatever comes out to not matter one little bit.
But it really doesn’t matter if his name is the *only* name on that list, right? I mean what possible difference would it make at this point? We’re all way past the point where the damage he’s done and set in motion can be shifted significantly.
I’m depressed about what’s happening. I’m depressed that so many ignore what’s happening. I’m depressed that so many support what’s happening. I’m depressed that so many cheer my depression.
Well done. And I think they look great, too.
MAGAts would *celebrate* the evidence, cuz it would infuriate libs.

Money follows the path of least resistance to gain power (aka profits) wherever possible.

Even those man-on-the-street interviews where a person says it matters are phony. Those people are always lying.
Wasn’t he great in that first season of Cuckoo?!
um… PA voters voted for the people who voted to screw PA voters, so…
He’ll spin his behavior as needed and won’t lose even one supporter.
F’ing doomed, we are.
Oh you’re not specifically wrong there, but voters have agency in their own choices and my god 77M voted for that mofo and 6M+ Biden voters stayed home or whatever? Jfc.
We need clarity and bravery FROM AMERICAN VOTERS. Not to mention participation.
By which you clearly mean the coffee machine is probably *one of* our robot overlords!
And not even 1% of that 80% would, or will, change their vote.
@jdickerson.bsky.social Great interview with Ken Burns. He is so well-spoken about the history and current challenges we face in America.
Good point.
Can’t wait to see that one!!
I just wish your average Texan (voter) cared as much about out-of-staters-in-need as you do.
Less potential than you might have expected, imo.
Well… “better and positive” for *them*, sure.
Ok so the twist ending to Presence (2024), directed by Steven Soderbergh, written by David Koepp, is unsatisfying because the majority of the film is so serious & understated… & then suddenly a deus ex machina-like conceit explains it all? Sorry, too gimmicky. Otherwise a well-made film.
No notes!
Too many idiots are fine being thus.
*Sir* Dude, I should’ve said. My bad.
Dude just turned 85 and he’s doing like 23 dates in Europe over the next 2 months. Anhygoel! @brianstack153.bsky.social
Drumpf has always played to a lowest-common-denominator audience, and Harris tried to play to a higher one. The race revealed more about us than it did about either of them.
