oh hey it's a cartoon that sadly did not become immediately outdated on friday www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
This seems important:
“My tweet is raising many questions about my health that are already answered in the tweet”
12. ludicrously corrupt mayor
there was some actress who had a scaled down version of this but it was fun and sexy
honestly just re-creating 2018 OKC would be a public service
this is somehow both psychotic and painfully banal
It would be *so easy* to make a dating app that works, but (a) you have to have a critical mass of people using it, and (b) a truly useful app probably wouldn't make much money bc the fees the main ones charge for functionality are a big part of the problem
OKC was a totally useful app when I was using it 2018-2020, give or take. It was super easy to meet people there! Now on the rare occasions I even remember to look at it, it's like a ghost town with what are clearly a bunch of abandoned profiles.
If the darkest suspicions about Trump and Epstein get proven true, the New York Times is going to report that Trump's behavior represents a bold expansion of adult authority under age of consent laws
now that DDG is gone, The Nation should correct his terrible mistake and bring TMW back!
the weather was not ideal lol
I hope no one ever sells him a pierogi again.
I gotta say: This feels like a planned thing.
good god
that sounds like a very peaceful passing.
oh wow, yeah, my dad was seeing his father
I remember some comedian's joke from a long time ago, "isn't it great when the president leaves the country and we can all goof off." the only reason that joke worked was the shared understanding everyone had of this 👇
baud rate day
I had been in New Haven for a long time, my ex teaches there.
I guess the actual moving date was Dec 30 which makes today Day 2800
I spent a moment trying to parse that one.
I had lived in NYC for many years at previous points in my life, it's why I came back. It felt like home immediately, and I needed that at the time.
(Yep, I moved on new years weekend.)
out of some random curiosity last night I looked up how many days have passed since I bounced out of my old life and started over again in new york and, yikes.
trump can issue as many executive orders as he wants, perhaps coverage should reflect the fact that a lot of these have the legal force of a child's wishlist for santa
whoa!
always a great idea!
this is the only pic I can find of the route up, which doesn't really capture the terror of it
Just saw someone refer to Cheryl Hines as The Marvelous Mrs. Measles and 💀💀💀💀💀💀
that should have read oakland *tribune* tower upthread but it seems like you figured that out
I hope he still has his secret lair up there? I haven't been to the Bay Area in too long.
I, too, am a weenie but sometimes I just Go For It There was a bit where you had to sort of shift from one side to the other with what I remember as this giant shaft below you, that was just a weeeee bit hairy
wow! I climbed up a rickety rebar ladder to the top of the old Oakland Tower with John once.
hey I was thinking what if we outsourced our economy, health care system, world standing and just about anything else you can think of to a malevolent, addled dementia patient on death's door, that would be fun right
this is violence
Like, if you don't have the option of being Homer sleeping in the big bed with his wife, then buddy, embrace the race car bed. Whatever gets you through. Whatever helps you survive.
sometimes the connections that make sense in my brain aren't really all that comprehensible to anyone else. But as a person who has been through some stuff, I will absolutely stand by the statement "sometimes the race car bed is what you got."
Oh my gosh, getting in touch with the BBB WORKED. PayPal is restoring my account and I should have access to my money again. If you are in the US or deal with the US PayPal and your account is randomly, without warning, and without explanation closed down, file a complaint with the BBB!
ha! there's a 30 Rock episode that has a night court reunion as a sub plot
I dunno, the Dick Cheney and Obama jokes are a leeetle bit dated, not to mention all the blackface stuff
wondering how long that thread can hold
sword of damocles hanging over my head for 35 years now
not to mention THE WEEKLY DEADLINE, the blessing and curse of my entire life since I was 28 or so
a thing like that, you just get thrown into the deep end, and it's like a test to see if you can suss out the appropriate way to act without anyone telling you what's expected. it was a weird fucking year, and I was planning a wedding at the same time.
pretty sure I met tina fey once during a meeting where we were waiting for a musician to come up with some opening music but we were both so socially awkward we just sat around looking at whatever people looked at before we had phones, which seems really appropriate in retrospect.
we did one animation with sparky in it and tried various voice actors. jimmy fallon was terrible. I think we ended up using horatio sanz.
replacing Batman fight onomatopoeiae with old midwestern brewery names
The linear nature of time gets to be a real bitch, at a certain point
also the fact that I had a development deal with SNL in 99 that didn't go anywhere gives it a complicated aftertaste
I have been rewatching 30 Rock, which remains well-crafted with some bits that really didn't age well, but my main takeaway is, jesus christ the 00s were a long fuckin time ago
*race to finish dinner first
My Dinner With Andre Episode 1: The Phantom Conversation
people have opinions if you say grass is green
excellent tip
yes i know
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
koronet is alive and well
jerry would have tried to date them (ba dum dum)
one thing seinfeld never showed, to my memory, is the gang dodging thousands of impossibly young columbia students on the sidewalk moving into their dorms
I think tacos are something I associate with making for my kid back in the day and my brain has some trouble with just ... making tacos because I feel like it
it is a mid diner that I go to when I want bacon and eggs and do not have these things at home
double what
this is a neighborhood with several good basic diner options.
it is just a basic diner. sometimes too crowded with tourists, but there's generally a seat at the counter.
sorry, I did not mean to suggest there is anything wrong with tacos for dinner! it's just a fast, tasty meal that I never remember to cook and I do not even know why that is, because I could have tacos for dinner EVERY NIGHT if I wanted.
thus concludes this fascinating tour of things I ate today. (lunch was not worth mentioning.)
for breakfast, I sat at the counter here, bc this is my neighborhood joint
the additional bonus is TACOS FOR LUNCH TOMORROW
my day got eaten up with some dumb chores but on the plus side it was TACOS FOR DINNER because I am a goddamn adult who can do this whenever I want (I almost never think to do it) (yeah I know this has real "I sleep in a race car bed" vibes but man sometimes the race car bed is what you got)
the internet does not feel good for much these days but I'm happy for that kid
oh it's just my silly brain, even I don't know what the hell I'm talking about half the time
Make Death Rumors Great Again
For no reason, thinking about how much my dad started talking about heaven and the afterlife when things started really going sideways for him.
now I'm trying to remember what the moral panic about the teletubbies was. Maybe a falwell thing?
that's really up to the cat, but he's usually pretty friendly
I will even provide snacks
legit offer if Mr. Colbert happens to see it though
BREAKING: STEPHEN COLBERT GETS $50 DEAL TO HANG OUT AT MY HOUSE AND TELL JOKES
what even
you guys had a whole party last night and nobody told me
We deserve a thread of beauty queens: Miss Cranberry, Miss Quality Printing, Miss Atomic Bomb
bad timing on my part!
maybe I should do a pre-write
don't get me wrong, I look forward to the day that scramble is necessary
One-pager from YOUNG ROMANCE #203, DC Comics, 1975. Hey girls! Here's a poem if your high school teacher is molesting you! Clip and save! Yike. No info on the writer. Jerry Grandenetti art, of course.
yikes
RFK is by far the most dangerous lunatic in an administration staffed exclusively with dangerous lunatics.

I logged off last night and read a book, so I was spared a desperate and unnecessary scramble trying to figure out what to do about monday's toon
first thing I saw this morning was an ominous text from a friend: "Quite a cartoon timing pickle you have there. " 🤔
I've been awake maybe fifteen minutes and this was a real "take a big sip of coffee and read the socials" morning let me tell you
ICE marching in sloppy formation in their mismatched outfits, grabbing random spectators and handcuffing them along the way
Ghost, and whoever the character was who got shot in the head toward the start, were both unfamiliar to me, I had seen the rest of them in various things
there were at least a couple of them that were entirely new to me, but I haven't really been keeping up
The parades will continue until morale improves.
maybe space force should do one, I bet they have a lot of spare time
