Loved the article but the video ties the whole room together. Slight aside: nice parallel park in a new vehicle. My favorite driving thing is that I am an awesome Parallel Parker. And when I asked I can honestly say that my mom taught me. Suck it mysoginysts

Not the long title, but The Immortals falls pretty squarely into that model.

The only time I ever saw The Notebook was in Czech on a bus through Eastern Europe. Why that was the selected entertainment remains a mystery.

In a lot of ways the entire Republican establishment since the 70s has been dedicated to making sure that what happened to Nixon would never be allowed to happen to one of theirs again

Seen a tornado starting to form a few years ago out over Lame Michigan. Lived through one as a kid but didn’t see it. But the sky turned green and that was freaky.

All of these are terrible, no significant notes. I would probably find a way to put some Fleetwood Mac in there but that is just nitpicking. Probably the Chain but Landslide with an outside chance

I was thinking recently about the Coke machine in the church basement I grew up in until I was old enough to say no thanks. It only sold glass bottles and you had to open a door to get one out. By far the best thing about church.

Having moved from one to the other, I don’t love Chicago politics but it’s infinitely better than New York’s. We have a good governor and told our copish mayor to fuck right off.

He roasted a few of my friends on The Big Show and my wife based on a nyt photo. I was in it but got left out of the roast. That was very surreal.

New Yankee Stadium is alright. Never made the old one which is a regret. But made it to Shea at least. My church remains Wrigley though even if the Ricketts have made it substantially worse.

Yeah it’s just the worst. Why I prefer trains when they are an option.

I doubt I could ever pick but I routinely think about how Kings Crossing is probably his suicide note. It makes me so sad

Had another dog attack mine and it was so terrible. He was fine but the effort to pull the other dog off was A Lot.

Solid list. I’ve only read half. The Calvin and Hobbes deeply shaped my life though.

Canadian Ice T: found another beaver pelt at the scene. Kids are calling it getting dammed. Canadian Mariska Hargetay: Bet you 20 Timbits this is connected to the Curling case, but this time they aren’t going to sweep the evidence away *both ride away on a moose*

It was a gift from the type of donor who wanted his gifts to always be on display. I won’t write it down but I know it to be true.

@shutdownfullcast.bsky.social Y’all I missed having Holly on this episode, but I have had an absolutely awful week and this is the episode I’ve laughed hardest at ever. I needed it and wanted to send my thanks.
