Have the captains of the wind and solar energy industries considered just bribing the president?

New Cold Dark Miserable episode! On our recent run this spring, we've ticked (checked) off some big topics -- Sport(s), Holidays (vacations), Politics, and now Language with special guest professor & author @byagoda.bsky.social. Get chuffed here: www.buzzsprout.com/2545190/epis...

Kenny Atkinson saying "Analytically, we're winning the series" is actually his noble attempt to get us to forget our darling boy Jarrett Allen's "The lights were brighter than expected" as the most embarrassing #Cavs playoff quote of all time. Thank you for your service, Kenny. #LetEmKnow

The snooze button should gain an additional O every time you hit it.

Just saw an ad that makes me think that yeah, maybe there is still hope for global mainstream culture: Hello Kitty Ninja Turtles Mashup Happy Meal. Either that, or these are truly the end times.

Taking the tree down the lift to the bins season in London

www.bbc.com/news/article... This also today, just bookmarking. Hitting FFwd on fascism.

Love to friends and allies up in beautiful MPLS. Goddammit why does this keep happening to you?

When my dear old friend (and respected journalist!) @wendling.bsky.social suggested doing a podcast about being an American in London, who was I to say no? Instead I said all sorts of stuff. We're 3 eps in now; today's new one is a bumper Xmas edition! Link to all the services, please sub, etc... x

Dad's Friday night in by himself... Just brought these back from the States, which to open first?? #nowplaying #nowspinning #wutang #thisaintinstagram

Hi @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy! Here's a great opportunity to run a story on your evening news, using clips from an acclaimed IP from your network's storied past, featuring a fan favorite! www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

#Cavs in their peach melbas tonight

(Bono voice): This is a song Jonathan Demme stole from Tom Petty... Tonight, we're stealing it back. #OneBattleAfterAnother

Stay strong Chicago, miss being there but not really right now. I hope for your sake you're the temporary distraction.

I'm happy with this tatty-covered £12 original press from @flashbacklondon.bsky.social Fond millennium memories of many CD spins, their first post-ODB and last pre-9/11 LP. The guests all legends and I'm still very much pro-"Gravel Pit." #wutang #nowplaying #vinylsky #nowspinning

I know there's a lot worse villains in the world right now, but I'm really rooting for something embarrassing to happen to oasis on this pillaging-ass tour

Here's my poem for the fourth of July Why won't he just fucking die

Zydeco's ranking in my list of favorite musical genres is remarkably similar to its place alphabetically

Meanwhile, in London, at the US Embassy... #notyrants #nokingsday #nokings #nodictators

Well, shit. But thanks for so much joy, Sly #nowspinning

Any of yr friends & neighbors who support ICE & think for a second the protesters or the people getting deported are remotely a threat to anybody's community comparable to the threat of these dunderheaded spineless coward monster energy drink bros should fuck directly off, & you should tell them so

Rogue One + Andor > original trilogy Yeah I said it

Both Hawks and Magic have had success and felt themselves vs #Cavs in last couple seasons, so I conspiratorially wouldn't be surprised to see some small scale tanking in the first East #PlayIn game to dodge the Celtics.

So much of the #NBA this season has seemed to have been devised by the scheduling team on a weekend peyote retreat, but all 30 teams playing with 5 Western seeds TBD on the last day is a pretty watchable result... Enjoy it, childless #LeaguePass subscribers!

#NowPlaying: I know the consensus "classic run" of #StevieWonder albums begins with Music of My Mind in 72, but I think we can safely stretch it back to Signed Sealed in 70. Maybe not taken as seriously because of the corny cover or Obama associations? It opens with 4 absolute rippers, including...

So fwiw, my final #Oscars #BestPicture favorites scorecard: (I saw Wicked on stage in 2006; I'm good.) 9. The Substance 8. Dune 2 7. Emilia Perez 6. A Complete Unknown 5. Conclave 4. The Brutalist 3. Anora 1. I'm Still Here 1A. Nickel Boys

Now maybe my recency bias is on full blast, but I finally saw Nickel Boys, and now I've got a #1 and 1A for my Best Picture Oscar vote, along with I'm Still Here. #NickelBoys

I'm primarily programmed to process the world and its weirdness through film and plays, and so in These Terrible Times, my theoretical Best Picture Oscar vote unconditionally goes to I'm Still Here. #ImStillHere

I don't encourage participation in #Whamageddon, in fact I had to pull out my own copy tonight to end my own at an unconscionable December 14th. Guess I haven't been going into enough Walgreens this year.

The captions on the credits of an episode of English Teacher just asserted that the background vocals on She Drives Me Crazy by Fine Young Cannibals go "She drives me crazy...CUCKOO ... Like no one else" and I'm outraged by how wrong that is, and that I didn't come up with it first

Dear Mr Altman, Can we PLEASE bring back Larry Jr at the trade deadline to back up the bigs and bring vibes please?

There's a bunch of stuff from my fantasy hoops group text that would do well to define my online bon-motism... "On a hateration note, trying to decide whether I'm experiencing greater schadenfreude for Joel Embiid or Drake at the moment... 🤔 🤔 🤔"

Here was my post election Facebook post I decided not to put into the world: "Fuck Trump and personally fuck all your friends and relatives that have ever liked him."

Hey, glad so many are joining this cocktail party and that it's groovy for a few minutes... Not really sure how I want to use it yet, maybe I'll just copy paste some things I almost-posted other places, or shit I said on group texts I thought was funny

When I pressed play on this, I joked/correctly predicted that the BBC anchor would say "TOO-PACK" but I was not prepared for their North American correspondent (from North America!) to say "SOOJE Knight." "Sooje!" Anyway, Pac's verse on "Same Song" is still the best debut verse of all time.
