Lego women in a Magna Tile sleigh bed, talking about their day and enjoying a two-tone Silly Putty pillow.
Me: I smell the grape silly putty, but where is it?
Willa (age 6): It’s in the bed.
Me: Your bed?
Willa: No! Their bed. [points at living room floor]
Their bed:
Submarine Bells
I didn’t understand how prolific I was with “nevertheless” as a retort to my 6-year-old daughter until she countered with “nevertheNOTless.” Checkmated.
I will never forget seeing this at a Blockbuster in 1999 and telling my then-wife and her sister that we had a new nickname for their dad, one of those briefs-around-the-house guys.
C-SPAN is replaying Neal Katyal's winning SCOTUS appearance ahead of Trump's press conference reacting to this defeat.
This is like being in a concert hall and hearing all of Born to Run play as the preshow music and you know the curtain is about to go up on Gallagher and 16 watermelons alone onstage, somehow in a good way.
On the one hand I hate it and am disappointed in myself, but yeah.

Why choose? Underdog contender for most offensive ad moment for me: MrBeast casually handling, then tossing, what looked like a tear-gas grenade, walking past anonymous-looking soldiers. To pimp inescapable workplace juggernaut Salesforce.
Same.

Begging Costco to resume stocking Thomas English muffins. You don’t have to stop selling Farm to Market’s flavorless, weirdly spongy version, but people need another option.

Some businessmen in my community might see a lesson here.
Was looking for a post like yours. After Roddy's birthday was noted on here, I went to Apple Music to stream an assortment and saw this. The album seems to have been taken down, or at least moved away from the AC page. Weirdly '90s-hard-rock sound. Gross if AI.
Unnaturally long. Clocked.
How are these guys supposed to get big, grotesque crowdfunded dollars from white nationalists if no one tells us who they are?

Jay Leno’s head mounted on chopsticks
Springsteen, “The River,” on the live box, when he closes the intro story with “That’s good” and then plays the first harmonica note.
It’s Marquee Moon and Aja for me, two sides of one OCD coin.

See also the constant use of “clash,” as though any of these confrontations has anything close to like force available to the “side” being terrorized.
Six to eight, as a touring operation. Seems like a lot, but headcount inflation seems endemic to legacy acts bent on public appearances.
My mom was a huge fan, so I grew up hearing her early records all the time, in the 1970s. Of course, I didn’t appreciate until many years later. Taking my mom in the late 1990s to sit down front at a Flack show, her first and only, is a proud memory. And Flack was great. I have most of her albums.
