Not nearly same level as that Banger but Archie comics spent decades referencing the band The Archie's and their Billboard no. 1 hit Sugar, Sugar and got so many fans writing in to ask where to get the song that they created a studio band called the Archies, released Sugar Sugar and it went to No. 1

No, let’s do this properly: The Sex Pistols were a boy band that was formed in order to sell clothing. Look it up.

"As an Indian don't you support Rishi Sunak" I very much do I think he is a crown jewel of England and therefore should be kept locked in the Tower of London and only taken out once a year for public display

An interesting account of a mass-stranding of dolphins on Cape Cod - I'm sharing it because I don't think people who haven't lived in coastal areas know just how big the volunteer response is to these. It's a real community effort.

Begging Duck Duck Go, Google, and Amazon to let shoppers sort by ability to ship to rural Alaska. Just spent 45 minutes trying to find automatic air fresheners that would ship to Alaska for a reasonable cost before giving up. I'll see what's in town tomorrow.

Random thought: I bet Klingons would like cats. Especially given how when little kittens get scared, instead of running they try to look big and scary and hiss, convinced they can take on the human that's like 10 times their size. Truly the fierce heart of a warrior beats in their chest.

I started my career reporting on how people were using the Internet in dictatorships, and if there's one BIG thing I learned from talking to a bunch of people who literally had served jail time for political blogging, it was "choose your battles wisely, and don't say dumb things in dumb places."

The Biden administration is rolling out a new program: SUN Bucks (Summer EBT). It provides $120/child on top of existing benefits.
This is important because families that get free school lunches during the school year often have trouble during the summer months.

I think a thing that's poorly understood about American history is that a lot of the progress made through the New Deal was driven by the political elite's fear of the Russian Revolution happening here and not by them having a sudden turn of heart after being visited by multiple ghosts or something.

So many folks are sick again so I share this with love: you must rest. Rest won’t guarantee you don’t get long covid but it’s a huge mitigator. Even if you have an accute mild case. Even if you don’t feel it at all. Send this to your boss. Make your partner clean or use disposable dishes etc.
