I was explaining to an English coworker how there’s a different Tayto crisps in Ireland and Northern Ireland with a different Mr Tayto. He said, “I get it. When you eat the Irish crisps, you’re eating the body of Mr Tayto. When you eat the Northern Irish crisps, it represents the body of Mr Tayto.”

We are meant to notice language changing in our lifetimes, meant to see shifts in fashion, in hairstyles, the march of progress and the pace of technology. We are not meant to watch ancient forests wither and seas rise. This feels so monstrously abnormal - so wrong it breaks our minds.

Gene Parmesan was only on a single episode of the original Arrested Development run, but Martin Mull made him feel ever present. His performance in Clue was similarly legendary. He will be greatly missed.

Cool, cool. Awesome. Good thing we don't need experts weighing in on regulations. Otherwise, we might have some pesky studies about why housing the homeless is both more humane and cheaper than punishing them for existing.
