This guy gets it.

Masterful Troll, TCM.

Reading a 90s novel where a kid is in juvie for stealing "hoodies," here meaning not sweatshirts but car hood ornaments, and now I can't remember the last time I saw a car with a hood ornament?

Steven. Nothing wrong with it. No story behind it or family member honored, my mom just liked it. But it’s two letters off from my last name, which is weird. My mother didn’t seem to notice or care about the aesthetics. A lot of cool anagrams. NEVER EVEN LISTENS. VELVETEEN SINNERS.

The Gen X urge to believe they put a man on the moon

This is why Matt, Ben, and that other guy made this: m.youtube.com/watch?v=jdfS... School’s closed, kids!

Pour one out for all the national weatherpeople having to do cold reads of Massachusetts town names

Canada gives America one gay hockey show and they start winning games

The bobsled track reminds me of a subway line.

Played today's Spelling Bee and it did not spare me any of the CONCOMITANT frustration I often feel when I play it.

Brr! Curving!

The blossoms are crashing all over the place with this one.

My fellow dictionary nerds, POLICE, ADJECTIVE is coming to Criterion Channel next month. (Yes, it's only loosely dictionary-adjacent but that's as close as we're gonna get so take your wins when they come.)

MAC FOREHAND is a name from a 90s video game.

Holding to the belief that pursuit speed skating is a completely new event introduced to the Olympics this year and not, as the internet tells me, in 2006.

This is unacceptable even for a chain that has strived to forget its doughnut roots.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Were they trying to kill toons?

That's why I never voted in the presidential election ‘Cause women are clearly more qualified to select ‘em

The glimmer of purple you see is from Roku City.

People think I’m joking but turkeys run the streets like gangsters. Last year, they broke a mailman’s hip!

The moguls in skiing should be actual moguls. Ski over the bodies of media tycoons.

Drunk and trying to understand curling.

This makes it sound like he tried to get up the stairs and kept tumbling back down.

Actual footage of Vince Guaraldi performing "Linus and Lucy". I'm gobsmacked that this exists, but utterly thrilled too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EMf...

RIP to the bond company stooge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPiI...

The fact that Bad Bunny's halftime show made white bigots angry and feel excluded is A GOOD THING. It's one of the best things about it. It's not a problem to solve. It's a solution to pursue. Bigots *should* feel excluded. We should find *more* ways to celebrate the reality of USian diversity.

Far cry from the time I was given the keys to the M-W Twitter and used it to scorch the Indianapolis Colts. www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/...

Did anyone else have to put on a show for the rest of the school for their elementary school graduation or was that just a thing where I lived?

MY KIDS: so why are there muppets in the AUDIENCE ME: THE CONCEIT!! IS THAT THEY'RE PUTTING ON A VARIETY SHOW!!! IN A WORLD WHERE MUPPET AND HUMAN COEXIST!!! YOU ARE WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY!! FILMED!! IN REAL TIME!!!

New Muppet Show yet again confirms the unassailability of the “puppets scrambling to put on a little show” format

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “Sorry, we don’t have one a restroom, you can try the coffee shop across the corner.”

Girl, I'm partial to France in May. Vive la France.

He is needy and senile and lonely, and he is terrified of the files being the only ultimate story of his legacy, and he needs to know that his hateful base still loves him, even if it’s in the form of botlikes. The racism is the quickest way there.

“Stay angry, little Meg,” Mrs Whatsit whispered. “You will need all your anger now.” "Okay I get that," Meg whispered back, "but I've been angry for over a decade straight and my arteries are basically solid carbon fiber at this point. Do I ever get a freakin' break?"

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

"Groundhog Day" (in the figurative, movie-inspired sense) was one of the last words I defined at Merriam-Webster.

I'm thinking of Adrienne Rich more than I usually do.

Current ADHD status: alternating SQL tutorial videos with Wong-Kar Wai's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE (2000).

I will imagine him with a mustache wearing a red hat and overalls and will not stand to be corrected.

Rejection trifecta 01.28.26: job application, freelance bid, short story.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

I love that "sicko fan" kind of works, though.

They don’t know just how defensive I can be.

If the US were a geopolitical rival the headlines would be like: US Secret Police Execute Second Dissident In the Streets As Militarized Occupation Enters Sixth Week

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city. If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
