Is it some sort of strategy to post a video on YouTube with the subject being something like “This Video will be Deleted in One Week”? Drive up the number of views in a limited time span? I just see a lot of videos that don’t have long for this world

Do all MLS teams have at least one fan who comes to all their games in a plague doctor costume?

It’s like half as warm as it was yesterday. Spring is nothing but a big, fat lie

I think ICE agents should wear TSA uniforms while in the airports. No cool camo or military chic while they’re doing airport security

“Temporary” is such a meaningless adjective because nothing lasts forever. I remember the university had temporary buildings that had been put up after WWII. In time they were replaced but their temporary service lasted some 40+ years

Bessent is definitely trying to win the politician most people would like to strike* award * with the tube sock filled with horse manure

Will ICE agents still be wearing masks and carrying weapons at airports? Because nothing makes people who have to fly feel calm like seeing armed men/women wearing masks

Apparently they can swear on the new UK version of SNL. You’d think that would be a game changer, but really it feels like they’re trying too hard

I hate YouTube videos that start out with a pointless introduction and then wedge in a Like and Subscribe or promotion before getting to the subject of the video

“Is that a garment musket?”

I mainly knew Sam Kieth from The Maxx. One of those books I couldn’t quite come to grasp with, but a unique style I liked. I have a signed print somewhere that I have no memory of getting which seems appropriate. RIP

When I was a child, I would order a hamburger whenever and wherever we went for dinner. (Even ordered hamburger pizza.) However, I outgrew this by 11 or 12 and you could even argue that was a bit late in life…

Danny Welbeck is the gift that keeps on giving

I’m beginning to think that the nations are just involved in some big charade where they pretend to be mad at one another while it’s business as usual. Pretty soon countries who are at war with one another will be selling/buying weapons from their opponents

A spring cartoon for @newscientist.com

I'm glad that Wikipedia exists so I don't have to ask my friends (or complete strangers) about bits of pop culture I've never heard of that are trending on social media

I've been thinking about a cartoon gag that no longer makes sense. The cartoon involves a graph, where they've had to add another piece of paper to capture a sudden rise or a great drop. (To show a bad thing like the price is up or share price is down.) But today, they'd just reprint the graph

It's supposed to unseasonably warm tomorrow and it's spring, so I'm afraid that can only mean spring cleaning

One drawback of not having a clear reason for going to war with Iran is Trump cannot now claim success. If he had chosen one reason he could now claim that we set out to do this one thing and we’ve accomplished that so we’re done here

I think we need to adapt the Nazi bar story for the House and/or Senate. Let in one Nazi politician because they’re polite and/or well spoken and pretty soon you have a Nazi government and then you have trouble

I always think that seasons change on the 21st. Wasn’t expecting spring to get underway until tomorrow. Maybe this is an old fashioned rounding thing like saying pi = 22/7

No doubt Maher is finally being rewarded for his comedic genius on display in Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death

Good Guys Wear Black might have the platonic ideal for a 70s action movie trailer. Used to love the shot of Chuck Norris kicking through the car’s windshield youtu.be/4Yhh3NSlN2c?...

Wife just told me this one: What’s the difference between Iran and Vietnam? Trump had a plan to get out of Vietnam.

Best Chuck Norris joke is still "Only Chuck Norris can slam a revolving door." My favorite moment was when he was introduced to a unit of soldiers in Iraq and the CO said, "Gentlemen, we can go home. Chuck Norris is here." RIP

I’ve said it before, but if the New York Mayor’s office posts a video, it’s probably worth a look. This one is very good no matter what your religious beliefs, if any

This Weeks Editorial Cartoon: Strait of Hormones

I think if a team is up by more than 10 against Duke at half, they should just call the game right there...

All the people who went with High Point because it's a cool name are now feeling pretty good about their bracket

I could turn the TV on and watch the end of the basketball game, but it's more fun to try to imagine what's happening based on the Gamecast

Afroman is trending above the Mullin Confirmation, so yeah

There's this weird conservative/libertarian thing to bring back dueling. Probably watched the Sacré-Cœur scene from John Wick 4 too many times. I would suggest dueling be legalized as long as it we melee combat with the traditional tube socks full of manure

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

That was such a common thing in 60s sitcoms where the wife goes into labor and the husband runs around looking for her ID

Whenever a website makes a change to its UI they should state upfront that we're going to try this for a week and if you don't like it we can go back

So I'm curious how often people have had to produce their ID? I'm old so I don't get questioned about my age when buying alcohol and like most people, I no longer use personal checks to buy things. So in the last 7-8 months I've only had to show my ID when I was changing my address on my ID

It’s strange that his trademark line is “You’re fired” and yet he seems to have problems with firing appointees who are, according to him, bad at their job

When you recall that you saw a spot that needed to be dusted but now you can’t remember where that was

I have a Guinness glass on the counter. I could fill it with Dr Pepper and pretend I didn’t forget to buy stout

Both Illinois Primary and Illinois Primaries are trending. A whole lotta votin' goin' on

I did have my suspicions...

I like “excursion” fine, but do you suppose he’s combined “incursion” and “expeditionary” and now refuses to correct himself?

I could see the ghost of Jimmy Carter coming to Trump to warn him about Iran and Trump just getting the message wrong. Not much of a career after you’ve passed away so that fits

Is House of Pain - Jump Around the official song of St. Paddy’s Day?

Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit!🇮🇪 According tradition, St Patrick used the shamrock to explain the concept of the Holy Trinity. The symbol became linked with his teaching and remains central to modern celebrations. ☘️ Shelfmarks: MS. Tanner 17, fol. 031r MS. Douce 80, fol. 196r MS. Douce 256, fol. 013r
