Lucky me--I have a stick of butter, which I use to "paint" butter on my toast, no knife needed, then add jam. So for me, the issue is crumbs on the butter stick. 😇 As to the OP question: I usually am butter or jam, not both, unless I feel like I need extra luxury that day.
The real question: You have toast, a tub of butter, a jar of jam, and a single knife. Do you A) Butter the toast first and end up getting butter in the jam, B) Jam first and get jam in the butter, or C) Refuse to apply either until a second knife is found. All morality is implicit in this question.
The cyber truck is getting canned, post a vehicle women actually like (I searched for "woman riding a bicycle," and somehow this snuck in...)

Same. There are so many in OC. My daughter took this pic out trick-or-treating.
Wait there were only 70,000 Cybertrucks ever delivered? I swear I seen all of them then.
This is what angers me about the language of Jeffries' condescending statement. The election result is not about something petty like getting "even." It's about justice, and holding criminals accountable. It's about a government of the people, by the people, for the people.
A change in who holds power means little unless it changes whose interests that power serves. The entrenched, largely bipartisan order that lets the richest few plunder and profiteer while millions struggle to secure basic necessities—housing, food, health care—must be dismantled, piece by piece.
I wanted to contribute to the hat discourse, but of course I couldn't find a gif of Ann Miller in a big hat walking her dogs in Easter Parade. I couldn't even find a youtube of it. So, enjoy this goofy moment instead, and watch the movie sometime if you've never seen it.

This one. It had a Hurst, which Springsteen sung about, so I felt cool, even though I was in my pretending-to-be-preppy phase. Hey, it was the 80s! I got better. 😇 #VW #ClassicCars
QOTD: What car did you learn to drive a manual transmission in? I learned in a friend’s 1987 Chevy Spectrum.
This is how I feel. I still hold out hope that she'll course-correct.
Every time I see Nicki Minaj it's like encountering the shambling zombie corpse of an old acquaintance. The girl she was deserved so much better.
Seeing this Brueghel the Younger painting this morning sent me in search of a self portrait I did years ago. I was pretty sure I'd posted it on my old blog. Turns out I did but as a tangent to a post about this cool art book I made back then. It's kinda like a fiber comic. #Art #SelfPortrait #Comics

My dad loved movies & movie stars. He loved that Julie Newmar was in his yoga classes in Los Angeles. Weirdly, Robert Cummings is the first famous person I ever saw. My dad spotted him & had toddler me get a wave from him. My dad also loved Chopin. I miss him.
As well as being a famous Hollywood actress JULIE NEWMAR — still with us aged 93 — was also a patented inventor, real estate magnet & classically trained concert Pianist. Here she is playing a bit of Chopin on the TV show ‘My Living Doll’ in 1964.
My daughter was happy to connect with Ryka at the LA Book Festival a few years ago. Here's a panel from the diary comic I made about the day.
One of the best things to happen to me is getting to meet and be friends with @rykaaoki.bsky.social and @amerrill2.bsky.social. I know you think they are great, talented and hilarious, and they are. But they are also amazing friends. I adore them and am glad they let me hang out with them.

Uh oh. I asked my 20-something daughters, and they have not heard of Bob Seger. I even did my best impersonation, singing a greatest hits medley. At least they've heard of Stephen Graham Jones. [Repost because I spelled it like Pete Seeger first. Yeah, I'm turning in my parenting card.]

By beat, I mean I'm beaten. I know this is a hell the road to which was paved by my own good intentions. I'm incredibly grateful that kind and generous people have been willing to help me and my daughters survive. Thank you all.

Not "historical" but... The Graduate 1967 Anne Bancroft b. 1931 = 36 Dustin Hoffman b. 1937 = 30 Katharine Ross b. 1940 = 27 Mrs. Robinson (Anne, 36) says to Benjamin (Dustin, 30), "I'm twice your age." Anne, 36, plays Katharine's, 27 mother. Dustin plays the titular college graduate at 30.
Prompts a fun question: whats the most niche historical inaccuracy in a piece of work that annoys you Not like 'oh they were referring to the wrong king' , more 'they had the wrong king on a banknote in one scene'
“…and that all student-athletes can participate in collegiate tennis without being confronted with imagery associated with racial hatred and intimidation," Rachal wrote.” & Look at how carefully we have to word statements against Klan imagery now.
