I miss the great American pastime of eating and drinking without always worrying that it might kill us.

Breakfast conversation with Teen: Me: Why are there no B batteries? Spouse: [Lengthy explanation about how there used to be B batts for old radios] T: Are there O batteries? S: No. T: Darn. A & B but no O. Me: ... ...what joke are you making? T: Blood types! Me: Oh thank fuck.

Friends, if you have never seen the crop art at the Minnesota State Fair, you are missing out. There are extremely talented folks who use seeds and stuff to make bug statements every single year, and as a Wisconsinite, I tip my cap to them. (Also their fair is just better than ours 😆)
geri katz@gerikatz.bsky.social · 4d agoFree political tactic for the @dfl.org: send candidates to shake hands up and down the crop art line. Hundreds of people willing to wait an hour to see anti-ICE seed art are the demographic you want to turn out in November.
The OJ Simpson freeway chase. I don't know why, but I have this really strong memory of watching all those cops chase that white Bronco and then snippets of memories about his trial.

Two of Miss Piggy's most iconic co-stars gone, this world is trash.
Hollywood doesn't give us guys like Tim Curry anymore. Creepy, compelling, conspiratorial, charming – he was a one-man Roald Dahl book come to life
Thank you Empire State Building. NYC ❤️ Dolly.
I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.
We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.
"The problem with humans is that we are designed to be super intelligent. Like we're so smart we don't know what to do with it. So we invent dumb things like bombs and capitalism. A species should be smart enough to problem solve but not smart enough to have an existential crisis." - My kid
Google News thought I might want to know this. 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤣🤣🤣
UPDATE: Yes, their owner passed away Thursday. We're taking them in today, but as I said, that CAN'T be permanent; they NEED a HOME NOW. We're willing to drive pretty much anywhere in the Northeast for the right adopter. We're begging.
Shecky@shecky.bsky.social · 2w agoMorning people: yep, looks like the ONE nibble is now ghosting. Going to Kevin's apartment today to start cleanout & get the cats, then we're bringing them here. They HAVE to stay closed in our bedroom, so they're safe for now, but one room is NO way to live the rest of their life. Please. SOMEONE.

Oh hello there. Who's in Men's Health today with an essay about kids and AI? It's me! Also, that art! www.menshealth.com/trending-new...
The AI Revolution Is Coming for Kids. But Maybe It’s the Parents We Need to Worry About More.
