I was told the war machine springs to life and opens up an eager eye.

After Taylor Swift put out that song about Travis's dong, I'm going to start using "Travis Kelce" as slang for penis. Trevor Lawrence almost got pantsed on his last touchdown run on #mnf and I said to my mom, "We almost got a peek at his Travis Kelce!" π
Back in the day, we had "Son of Svengoolie" on WFLD. Good times!
I get you. I only started watching them because Wynn was into them, so within the last six-ish years. My dirty secret: I've never seen Halloween. I only saw Nightmare on Elm Street within the last couple years.
I've never seen this one, but they got Linda Blair and Leslie Nielsen. The church in it is named "Our Lady of the Evening." Best church-name gag ever.
Besides, what movie with Max von Sydow isn't great? Who could forget 1983's "Strange Brew," eh? π
Bryan I can see not seeing it, but Mike is a surprise, just based on Mike being older than me and Bryan younger (ha!). It's a good watch. I watched it with my daughter Wynn. Horror films are our guilty pleasure. The power of Christ compels you to stream it, @michaelastackpole.bsky.social. π
"2001: A Space Odyssey The Board Game? How the feck is that supposed to work?" I turned it over and saw it's one player as HAL versus the others as the crew. Literal laugh out loud in the game store. The box says HAL's motivation is the importance of the mission. The designers get it.
Friends, do you think if there had been a "Songs That Excite the White Folk" playlist in 1989 that it would have featured "Funky Cold Medina?" Of course it would have been distributed on cassette.
JOHNSON: "I didn't see [Trump's speech in front of the assembled generals]."
Hey, Media! Why is it always the Democrats' responsibility to pass "must pass" legislation? When the Dems are in power, it's, "Golly! The Dems need to change their bill to get the GOP to vote for it!" and when the GOP is in power it's, "Golly! The Dems won't cave and vote for the GOP bill!" π€
I, on the other hand, am apparently not a fan of spelling "diarrhea," even for a bit.
"Not a fan of:
Permanency
Hell
Diarrhea
The diarhhea song
Baseball (see above)"

My friend, I wish I knew, because I'd be doing that. We still have over a year until the next federal election, and the regime is hard at work trying to rig that. The chances of ICE snatching people out of voting lines while the National Guard looks on are not zero.
Hungover Hegseth Struggling To Remember How He Ended Up In Room Full Of Generals
Celebration of what now? Oh. MΓRK-tober. I thought you said "BΓΆrktober."π
This is why we have Hegseth and they forced the JAG corps and some senior leaders out. During Trump I, the SECDEF and the military would tell Trump his illegal orders were illegal. Those guardrails are gone.
Hegsethβs was like a guy they bring in to hype up employees at a corporate convention in Dubuque, βYouβre not just Mary Kay Cosmetics reps youβre murderers! Get out there & destroy!!β Also, can anyone give me a ride to Chiliβs later, my car has one of those breathalyzer thingsβ.
Clearly Tangerine Dream and Drunk By Noon haven't any idea.
"Like the little ones you paint?"
"Yes, exactly."
"So, like Warhammer?"
"Different IP, but yes, in the way that Star Wars and Star Trek are similar but different IPs."
It happened, y'all. Somebody at work asked, "Is that a Black Power patch on your bag?" "No, that is the insignia from the Lyran Commonwealth, also known as House Steiner, from #battletech. It's a game with stompy robot miniatures."
Literal LOL π
I'm sure that doesn't help, but I'm also sure Stephen Miller is telling him it's like a war zone. Trump isn't really in charge of anything. He's just a terrible person the Heritage Foundation and Peter Thiel can get to say terrible things through proxies.
Early one morninβ on a Steiner world,
Mechs rolled out by two.
The radio crackled with orders clear,
Our lance knew what to do.
The autocannons split the dark,
The PPCs they flewβ
Each shot lit up the pre-dawn sky,
Warhammer in blue.
