Amusing to discover Wile E. Coyote has the same middle name as my great-grandfather (Ethelbert)

tech companies tried to pretend they were just adhering to automated GNIS data standards, but that appears to be incorrect they were just pre-emptively feckless because U.S. tech leadership has absolutely zero ethical or moral center of any kind

"Why does San Francisco still have so much car traffic?" I ask as I cast my vote on the 53rd ballot box attempt to de-pedestrianize the Great Highway.

I know it's just because the world championships are in town, but it's very funny to see subway ads encouraging me to join Team Rocket.

there are going to be many remembrances of Tim Curry today for his brilliant work in Rocky Horror and Clue and so much more, but to me this ridiculous bit from Red Alert sums up everything that made him great you never knew what you were going to get with him, but whatever it was would be brilliant
