I'm not saying JJ McCarthy is not the guy, but with every start I'm more inclined to think he is not the guy. #vikings

I'm walking on sunshine, whoa I'm walking on sunshine, whoa I'm walking on sunshine, whoa And don't it feel good!

Haven't read it, not gonna read it, logging off for the day to avoid it.

Holy shit.

I dunno. This was stupid, but I'm not super offended. My opinion, it was a trap vote so the GOP could point at whoever voted against it and scream "SOCIALIST!" and most uninformed voters would just eat it up.

The world sucks right now but every once in awhile some stranger on the internet writes the perfect 15 paragraph question to ask a made up author about a made up book and you think okay maybe we will be okay.

July 12, 2025 - The ottoman in the lower living room finally said YES! Banner five star day! - JD

Why is Kristen Bell making Carvana commercials? Doesn't she have that sweet "Frozen" cash rolling in? I'm concerned.

John Adams: [The role of vice president is] the most insignificant Office that ever the Invention of Man contrived or his Imagination conceived. JD Vance: ....go on.

I really wanted to like "The Beast In Me", but was disappointed with the last two episodes. And I was really confused as to why [redacted] did [redacted] to [redacted]. Not the thing with the wife, the other thing. I kept waiting for a twist and the twist didn't come.

"We're the party of law and order" says Thom Tillis, followed by a lightning strike from above as god smites him into oblivion.

Please please please let this end in jail time and/or hefty fines for all DHS agents involved. [I know, probably not, but a person can wish upon a star]

Johnny Ramone's Guitar Teacher: ....and that's how you do a power chord. Now in lesson number two we're going to ... Johnny Ramone: No need. I'm good with this.

Running out of time! Luckily according to the Trump administration we will all be in a nirvana utopia valhalla heaven in TWO WEEKS!

This one is dedicated to brendel, who one day will see the genius of my posts and follow me.

I don't understand why Max Weinberg is so in dire straits that we have a whole day dedicated to helping him.

2025 MOVIES #118 Cavalcade (1934) "Upstairs/Downstairs" meets "Forrest Gump", follows a wealthy family and their servants from 1900 to 1930 and how world events affect them. Won Best Picture in 1934. I found it kind of hammy.

A device used to boil water in a moving vehicle. What are we even doing here?

I am watching "Cavalcade" (1934) on youtube and the AI closed captioning cannot handle all the British accents and is getting a lot of things hilariously wrong. Why did Queen Victoria die mom? = Why did feel Victoria diamond? Here Edith, here's your piece = He read it here jobbies

Thousands of bands have followed trends and made music that songs similar to but not quite the same as The Beatles, David Bowie, Nirvana, etc. This what AI would do. We know The Beatles, David Bowie, Nirvana, etc. because they DIDN'T follow the trend. AI is incapable of new and different.

"And action!" "Harreeeee Potterrrrr...." "Cut! No Ralph, other movie franchise." "Oh right, got it!" "And action!" "Bond, I need...." "Cut. No Ralph, the other other movie franchise." "Sorry!" "And action!" "Miss Everdeen!" "Cut! Right movie franchise, but she's not in this one." "Wait, what?"

I sometimes wonder how much money I could make if I had absolutely no soul, ethics, compassion, or empathy, and my only goal in life was to make money.

DING DING DING CORRECT ANSWER!

We found Aaron's bullshit limit.

2025 MOVIES #117 The House of Rothschild (1934) A thinly veiled pro-Jewish anti-Nazi movie set in the Napoleonic era. I really wanted to like it, as a pro-Jewish movie in 1934 is something to applaud, but it was kind of boring.

DOJ in rebuttal:......yeah but still!

Take some time and read this. Its excellent.

A lot of people are dunking on this for being really stupid and not understanding how insurance works and punishing the disabled, but I noticed not everybody is doing this and you really should quote this to remind everyone how stupid this is.

My life hack is I use Turbo Tax right up until you have to pay for it. By then they give you a final number as to what your return should be, but don't tell you how they got it. I then go use the free forms and do it myself until the numbers match. Takes a bit of work, but fuck Turbo Tax.

I had an in-law that ordered a stainless steel refrigerator, and when it arrived and it was blue. They stormed to the dealer and demanded an answer. The salesperson swore they didn't sell blue fridges. "What is THIS?", they show a picture. "That's a SS fridge with blue protective coating."

If the Texas gerrymandered maps don't go in for 2026 but the California one do, its going to be a massive self-own by the GOP and I for one plan to enjoy it.

Everything will be better in TWO WEEKS

Huh, a post referencing a butthole. Weird. Huh, another one referencing a butthole. There must be... ...OH GOD UNREAD UNREAD.

And the people will negotiate with and ultimately give their money to whom?

Found out a few days ago that our Amazon Prime subscription includes free games on Luna, one of which is "Alien: Isolation" but it is leaves on Sunday so I'm trying to beat the game and it was a lot easier when I didn't have a job and a family to just stay up all night and play video games.

She has a lot more patience than I would've had, I would've just turned and walked away from this person. (also why didn't anyone on her team jump in once it became clear that this person was not on the up and up?)

I AM a lawyer and this is not a thing and by any measure she should be disbarred.

2025 MOVIES #116 Persuasion (2022) Jane Austin meets Fleabag. I appreciate they were trying something different, but it didn't really work for me.

2025 MOVIES #115 No Time To Die (2021) All this Bond talk made me want to re watch it as it was the only one I had seen just once. Still just okay.

I dunno. Its one thing to just misread plays. Its another to get the play correctly and just consistently miss throws, and I feel that happens with JJ a lot. #vikings

If the Marjorie rehabilitation tour works I swear to Christ I am buying a cabin in the woods and never talking to anyone again.

Me after watching the first two episodes of "Alien: Earth" by Noah Hawley:......okay, he's obviously going somewhere so let's give him some time to see what this is leading to. Me after watching the first two episodes of "Pluribus" by Vince Gilligan: YES! I GOTTA WAIT A WEEK FOR EPISODE 3?

I guess the good news is we have another round of "Oh My She Suuuuuuuuuuuucks" so take the good with the bad.

DUCT TAPE IS NOT ENOUGH by Red Green and ANGLE OF REPOSE by Wallace Stegner, confuse the hell out of them.

The world did not ask for an Olivia Nuzzi rehabilitation tour, and we would like to speak to the manager.

Ah yes, the edge of oblivion. That desert ghost town in the middle of nowhere known as Malibu.

This morning I completed all of my CLE requirements, even though I had until August 31, 2026 to do it.

Apparently when The Ramones were basically the house band at CBGBs in the 70s their average TOTAL set time was 17 minutes, and I find that hilariously awesome. Jerry Garcia: Here's our opening song, its 30 minutes long. Joey Ramone: Yeah we're done with everything.

Uber rich 100 years ago: I'm going to use my money to build museums and libraries and concert halls for all to enjoy. Uber rich now: I'm going to build a space rocket for me and my friends, and then buy a private island for me and my friends, and then buy sports teams for me and my friends.

Every dollar over a billion that a person has must be donated to charity so that there is never a billionaire on the planet. And not your charity either. Like an actual honest to god helping people charity.
