Mick Jagger’s performance of the Slow Horses theme really strikes me more as “he just happened to be singing that and someone held up a microphone”

The No Kings protests do NOTHING but ruin the day of me, the guy trying to take a private shower in a functioning bathtub in the middle of town square. I am sudsy in one of those dorky hair caps peeking out past the curtain and shrieking. I am yanking the shower curtain all over to cover myself.

[4'33" of silence] Ring Announcer: Oh my God, that's John Cage's entrance music!

CENTCOM told me Iran keeps hitting their high-value assets so I asked how many they have and they said they just go to the Pentagon and get new ones afterwards so I said it sounds like they're just feeding high-value assets to the Iranians and then INDOPACOM started crying
