The Soderbergh "Star Wars" movie didn't get greenlit because Disney couldn't understand how Ben Skywalker could still be alive. This from the team that gave us "Somehow, Palpatine returned." C'mon guys. You didn't even try to explain that. Give me Soderbergh "Star Wars."

It's 2025. Why do graham cracker packages still suck so much?

Manufactured Outrage? Manufactured outrage was what happened when people got twisted out of shape because Obama removed a bust (or did he??) of Winston Churchill from the Oval. This is wanton destruction of a national landmark.

Why would the military be involved in building a ballroom?

Tired: Genocide is bad. Wired: The guy who got a symbol of genocide tattooed to his body also likes Medicare For All, and we should give him a chance.

Yet another example of what I mean when I say "the debt is fake." Republicans will use "the debt" as a justification to cut SNAP, Medicaid, or any other program that actually helps someone. But none of them will complain when this payment goes through. Not a single one.

Personally, I'd prefer candidates without huge Nazi chest tattoos. I think it's a pretty low hurdle to clear.

I think I love the inflatable costumes at protests thing.

Started in Alexandria. Ended up in DC. Not 1 single King was seen. And that's the way we like it.

Appreciative honks (too many to count) far out numbered middle fingers (5) and thumbs down motions (2). Is say it was a success.

Frogs have made it to Alexandria.

Alexandria showing up today.

Making signs in our basement (actually our dining room) out of love.

The Ben Brenman Beaver was doing some landscaping.

Once again, Republicans are allowed to say whatever the hell they want about more than HALF the nation. They say Democrats are Hamas, terrorists, and that they hate America. AND THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES. The media would have a field day if a Democrat said this.

Me reading a book that introduces a character in the prologue, and that character has not become part of the plot 75% of the way through.

I don't feel like reading any of it, but should I be outraged about the Bolton indictment? I mean, it's John Bolton.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos." factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

Jenn Wasner, whom I adore, had never sounded more like Christine McVie than she does on the new Flock of Dimes album. This is not a bad thing.

Not even pretending anymore. Only one line of lyrics is featured in this US Border Patrol video: "Jew me, sue me, everybody do me/ Kick me, kike me, don't you black or white me." www.facebook.com/reel/1517523... Things are going great.

I'm not sure how it happened, but I've been informed that this turns 40 on 10/14. youtu.be/znWwKSn-xTY

Pumpkin Old Fashioned? Y or N?

How are they going to rotate the Lincoln Memorial??

People on our neighborhood Facebook page are angry because the HOA referred to it as "Indigenous People's Day," instead of "Columbus Day." when informed that it's what Alexandria recognizes, they act like they should have been personally consulted regarding the decision.

It's Try Not to Breathe, and it's not a close contest.

Was thiiiiiiis close to buying that yellow Mahi Mahi fish painting at Art on the Avenue. She paints it with a magnifying glass, y'all. It's nuts.

It won't even make the news. Republicans can say anything they want about Democrats and not a word. If it does come up, they'll ask some Rep or Senator what they think about it, and they'll say "I don't pay attention to his tweets," and that will be that.

Dude would be first in line to condemn Hakeem Jeffries if he sent out a Tweet disparaging people from "the Heartland."

Why do they try to make cat food look appetizing in commercials? Who are they directing these adds at? Cats aren't going to see them. Cat food may look like Chateaubriand but it still smells like vomit, so what human cares?

Hey Generals. If you have an opinion about what you sat through today, I'd love to hear it. My DMs are open. I'm not a reporter, I just need a good laugh.

Gonna have the fittest, most clean-shaven war criminals to ever exist. Yay us.

Meanwhile the Justice Department is making lists of people that hurt the Ice agents precious fee-fees.

No one is nostalgic for Walmart. Walmart sucked in 2002 and it sucks in 2025. The video sucks now and it will suck forever. I do not want to see it anymore.

800 Generals are going to have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.

I'm pissed that I just had that surgery when I could've used a MedBed instead.

Just a guess, but I don't think having the US military shoot American civilian protestors is actually going to quell demonstrations.

I could really use that rapture right about now.

Absolute mush brain. Just oatmeal. Cream of Wheat up in that bitch. Just sloshing around when he moves.

In a mostly empty showing of Fantastic Four. I'm pretty sure this was in the post-hospitalization orders I received when I discharged.

I regret to inform you that the war has been lost. The lantern flies have won. They are now our overlords.

I spelled "fuck" on my friend's Speak 'N Spell, and his mom came rushing in to stop me right as I got to K.

Healing is such a bitch. Can I just skip to the part a few months from now where I am learning survival skills in a mountain cabin, preparing to take revenge on the people who did this to me (it was a voluntary, but needed procedure - they'll never see me coming).

For people who have worked, or otherwise spent a lot of time in hospitals... I just spent 5 days inpatient for a planned procedure and am now home recovering. But there is this smell so deeply seated in my sinuses that everything smells like the hospital. How do I get rid of it? What is the secret?

Um, y'all. This is a deal! I'm not into the fantasy books, but the Murderbot series is so much fun. And World Central Kitchen benefits. www.humblebundle.com/books/martha...

This guy gets it.

Spent yesterday "arguing" that you can, and should, be able to fight Trump AND protect and provide for the undeserved and and endangered members of our community. Some leaders are succeeding in this, while others don't even come close.

A week ago, Republicans thought Democrats were stupid for saying an ad for jeans had, and I'm being gentle, racist overtones. Today, Republicans, who are smart, are mad about Cracker Barrell changing it's logo.

Good things still do happen.

This motherfucker just talks shit day and night about anyone he wants. Immigrants, the elderly, liberals, people who live in cities. As a Republican, he can say whatever the fuck he wants. Meanwhile, Democrats get censured for making comments nowhere near as offensive.

The air conditioner where I am right now has a rhythm that sounds like the heartbeat in Huey Lewis' "The Heart of Rock and Roll."
