Counter-SOTU programming: I'm going to watch basketball and pack for an early morning flight. If I can't sleep, I'll rewatch the BBC series of Tinker Tailor on YouTube.

Skadi battles the snow and the cold in her own particular way. It's a good approach.
Sixth-gen Texan born in Houston here (expat now in MI), and I don't want you to be right, but goddamnit, you're probably right.
THIS is the face that should be on a banner at the Justice Department headquarters.
Witness in the corner!
I was so close to falling asleep and now I am laughing hysterically omg.

Gonzo, can @davewagner.bsky.social have your treat machine for a second? He just wants to look at it.
Then you absolutely should not! You have the right to shelter in place, Gonzo.
"Snow appears to be falling in Denver "
It is the most destabilizing aspect of the current situation to me. That and the media wording. "Videos appear to contradict . . ." What the fuck does that mean, no, the dozens of videos plainly contradict, they don't "seem" to.
French Connection for sure, but Blues Brothers is a hoot. Italian Job and Ronin rank up there for me.
Cartman energy off the charts
I love what People Magazine is doing.
Skadi has that trackball. Sometimes I wake up at 3 am to the sound of whizzzz . . . whizzzz . . . whizzzz . . . on the landing, and it makes me smile, and then I go back to sleep.
If you're closer to the Great Lakes, I highly recommend the Charles Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit for some uplifting object lessons.
Please buy Michigan, Denmark. Lots of fresh water, agricultural powerhouse, manufacturing capacity, eventual climate haven, and, um, walleye?
You're more of a Shackleton.
I'm glad the housemate isn't home yet, because I have been absolutely laugh-yelling every time Wemby squares off against Chet. So much fun.
Antifa wine moms, Etsy witches, raging grannies, neurodivergent activists, queer folk, and aunties of any provenance: my goodness I do love you, and I am so proud of you, you goddamn fighters.
My sympathies. My current diet consists of randomly timed handfuls of macadamia nuts and the occasional half a serving of yogurt when I can stomach it, and I really miss enjoying food. Really really miss it.
Gladly. And done.
They are strangely unmoved by the assembled project. They may be annoyed that I ruined a bunch of perfectly good swipeable loose objects by turning them into something they can't casually send flying across the room, under the sofa, etc.
I am going to build that Jaws set. That's fantastic.
Beeps, a tabby cat, inspects a large LEGO model of Shackleton's ship, the Endurance, assembled during a time of national crisis.
OMG I did the same thing, but with the Endurance!
