On a Mad Men re-watch and my dumb brain did me a disservice over the years: Though I loved it the first time, I remembered it as being a bit slow-moving. NOPE. Totally wrong! We get Dick Whitman clues in Episode 1 -- and these episodes are packed with plot.

it's not going well for Bears ownership. I swear the Titans' new stadium is going to be one of the last of the "allow billionaires to use public money" model. Our city had leverage but refused to even let things get slightly uncomfortable for ownership.

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.

oof. The era of my first iPod (2nd gen), which may have contained the Blink song, the AFI song, and Reptilia (best song on this list besides Maps). But a pretty putrid time for popular music -- we all scrambled to the indie scene and (in my case) relied on cooler friends for better music

came across the most Bluesky post that's Bluesky'd: a leftist posting that they'd discovered Andor, and that the politics of it were indeed good. However, they were preemptively worried that posting about it would attract resist libs and other unwanted types ("I am not like you," etc. )

AI evangelists always say their tools will spark creativity and innovation but time and time again it only gets used to manipulate stuff that already exists. Make a dead person say new words, generate images of a famous person naked, etc

seen a few think pieces (from respected culture websites) on Revenge of the Sith. And let me state for the record, after many years to consider and reconsider: No. It was not underappreciated. It is dogshit. The lightsaber fight where Anakin gets his shit wrecked is like the only 5 watchable minutes

not the worst (I liked it and wore it out), but my most "buyer beware" CD was a used copy of Reel Big Fish's Why Do They Rock So Hard. Only it was the CLEAN version and not labeled as such. So many awkwardly spliced blips.

ABTCR foster needed! This handsome hound had it all until his person became ill and was no longer able to care for him. He ended up at the shelter, and tomorrow he is scheduled to be euthanized because there is no more room. He is good with other dogs, completely vetted and up-to-date on all his vaccines.
He's friendly, calm, and today he showed his true spirit by lounging in the sunshine. He was never a hunting dog. He has lived his entire 5 years as an in-home companion. ABTCR will arrange transport to an approved foster home in the Virginia region. Please help ABTCR save his life.

Duke's is a gem. We frequented it after the worst of the pandemic and before we moved to Madison. After 3 Crow's heel turn and the closure of a couple other places, it was one of the only places left that felt like a 5 Points bar should.

I can't fully prove causality yet, but anyone else have appliances go haywire after storms (losing power a few times)? Fridge/freezer is jacked up at the moment and had to replace the disposal yesterday (kitchen sink). Not having a very good or functional time over here.

still recovering from that brutal Razorback collapse. I'd rather lose on a buzzer beater than a 4-minute stretch where if one single thing goes differently (1 free throw, 1 rebound, 1 better decision), then you win. But it was a hell of a ride with these guys. Will find perspective in a couple days
