HEY WHO STOLE MY CAR?

My wife related a post she just saw: “Odyssey this, Odyssey that, some of you Odyssey a therapist"

This is so funny, not just because it’s being said by Temu Lex Luthor here, but because I’ve been to several protests, and I’m about the most anodyne looking older white dude imaginable. Salt and pepper hair cut short on the sides, short white beard, a little paunch, etc.

This is the most Midwestern thing ever until Tony Evers does the same but mandates that all nursing homes must offer Old Fashionds made with Christian Brothers brandy and topped off with 50/50.

Reading clips of Trump’s speech on here. All the same to anyone, I’m just going to keep texting my geology major neighbor pictures of stone that I took in Glacier NP and asking for her to ID them. Vastly more enjoyable.

Nels A. Murdercontract ... oh shit!

My wife and I are out in Montana with family and are doing a few day trips to Glacier NP. I’m so fucking proud of her. We hiked the Hidden Lake Overlook trail, and she overcame steep, slippery snowfields and a sidehill section that terrified her, but we made it! Have a goat in celebration

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for twenty minutes this morning. Most of it was just wheezing, but I distinctly heard a moan and a throaty “Step on me, Elaine,” at which point I threw my phone like it had become red hot.

Appreciate Bluesky for the persistent speculation on whether Mitch McConnell has become a Good Republican yet. Schrodinger’s Cad, you might say.

This is the sort of thing that, despite all the deserved cynicism about pro sports, can make you ever so slightly choked up at the way it can, at its best, create memorable traditions and a sense of belonging out of thin air. To tell someone about how you got it is a bit of beautiful oral history.

So, absolutely random question: I was watching a YT on a digital rendering of Safdie’s original Habitat 67 design, and in part of it they showed one of the original pen and ink line drawings. Q: has there been any research or findings on whether less ‘realistic’ drawings like (ctd)

Are you saying they’re a hopster?

Man, nothing says “I’m not engaged in seditious conspiracy” like openly touting your plan to subvert democracy, disenfranchise voters, and overthrow Congress.

Congrats Virginia! Make ‘em squeal.

Bold of them to assume that “I’m a stupid little baby” isn’t a part of my core identity.

THIS IS BIG PENNY ERASURE www.wilx.com/2026/04/21/w...

As if our barracks and ships weren’t ALREADY gross as hell. What’s next, eliminating mandated overseas deployment jabs?

Honestly one of the things that made it easier for me was that at my job I was working with my state’s Dept of Public Health to improve Contact Tracing and Case Management processes during COVID. Most of the time it was Just A Job, but occasionally it felt good to be DIRECTLY fighting this shit.

I regret to inform everyone that joking online is now illegal, to avoid feeding the big stupid plagiarism machine stuff that it doesn't understand and spits right back as fact.

The idiot snorted it. Everyone KNOWS you gotta infuse a solution with it and then inject it to get the good trip.

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means? ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

Translated from Hungarian: "I wish a motherfucker WOULD."

The racism is terrible on its own, but this is straight-up eliminationist rhetoric. It’s a very, very small step from here to discussions about final solutions. Keep these people’s names on a Nuremburg list. They’re Nazi leadership and mouthpieces.

"The Devil Wears Homespun"

To be clear at the outset: NOT THAT I WOULD But after getting some THC gummies in Michigan, I did have a momentary reflection that the "Drugs are expensive, nobody's going to blow that money giving them out for Halloween" argument doesn't really hold that true any more.

This is entirely new levels of pathetic, and this is @jaketapper.bsky.social we're talking about. Hope the lightly braised boot sole with demi glace and riced potatoes is worth it, you suck up.

Ideally slam the door in their faces, but if you absolutely must, take their money, win, and then SHIV THEM IN THE FUCKING NECK WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE. Once you're in a Congressional seat, being an AI hater will keep you there.

I enjoy thinking about how so many of his relatives hate him SO MUCH they literally filmed a political ad opposing him.

This sort of shit instantly activates the reactionary “Oh I’ll GIVE you something to cry about,” response in my hindbrain…

New rule: the only cameras allowed anymore are film. Sorry, folks, maybe we can try again later when we’ve matured as a species. (and @jamellebouie.net does a fist pump at this thought)

Among the rest of this great thread (and the post of his that he links to), this is about the best and most concise summation of the disjoint in messaging and electoral feeling in 2016 I’ve yet come across.

I could read about actors and other film/tv crew talking about the details and theory of the craft all goddamn day.

Wake up, babe, new euphemism for potholes just dropped.

And on the eighth day, God created Monday Night Football, and He saw that it was good.

So, this was an interesting find tonight. Years ago I drove to Denver via IA/NE, so came into the state from the northeast corner At one point there were scattered clouds and windy conditions, and then I saw what looked like a TORNADO a mile or two away… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landspout

Every time a Republican shows they have no idea what a concept actually means, a demon gets its horns. Got bad news about Satan’s Army, folks…

I just described the Himalayas as "The Indian plate LEEEEEROY JENKINSing into Asia," to my wife and I feel like that's my contribution to geological education today.
