Every time I open this app, one of your posts is invariably towards the top. Every one a banger. Carry on, good sir. Carry on.

AT THE PEAK OF A MOON MISSION THIS YEAR TOOOO

One of these days I’m going to remember to not wash my regular laundry with my bedsheets, so my clothes don’t get all balled up in the corner of the fitted sheet, and I have to un-slinky them after drying them again BECAUSE THEY’RE STILL DAMP. But today was not that day.

This potential moment of reckoning *has* to transcend partisan delineations, or it will lose all credibility. I am begging.

Bouncing between Twin Peaks, X-Files, and Lost— having seen NONE of them before— is spectacular. (I’m in season 1 of TP, season 5 of X-Files, and season 3 of Lost).

We’re getting tantalizingly close to a hundred pounds lost. And I pulled my old “someday these will fit me again” box of clothes… AND SOME OF MY JEANS FIT. I haven’t worn not-sweat-pants pants in a couple years…

Vince Gilligan is just so, so very good at “show, don’t tell”. My gosh. Also, story-via-menial-tasks. There’s just nothing else like Pluribus right now. The pacing seems to have become somewhat divisive, but I absolutely love it.

Today I am but stuffing, My heart? Potatoes. My soul, Turkey. Naught but green bean casserole, Cranberries, cranberries everywhere, For I have looked into the abyss, and glimpsed only gravy, Gazed upon that holy mountain, and beheld thine dinner roll, Am I man? Nay. I am pie.

The sentimentality is fairly dated (it was written in 1977), and while he squarely tells you up front, his bias skews fairly directly into English Exceptionalism. Still, a very engaging read; and at 200 pages, extremely accessible.

Almost done with this. Started it yesterday. Filling in a blind spot. David Howarth does an excellent job narrativizing what was quite a brutal affair into a breezy little pop fiction.
The book, “1066: The Year Of The Conquest”, by David Howarth

attend symphony concerts and operas and ballets, and go to museums and libraries and pubs, and attend lectures and debates and intellectual salons? I know I’m not alone.

You ever have the urge to just throw out your tv/computer/smartphone/internet connection and spend your free time reading all the books you own but never have “time” to read, and write letters and stories and poetry, and play board games, and go on nature walks, and

No matter how the last three episodes go, it’s already safe to say that Andor has solidified itself as one of the most salient pieces of political art of our lifetime.

Maybe it’s the algorithm I built over there, but you cannot imagine the dumbassery the Twitter/X crowd is engaging in when it comes to the UFO/UAP/drones thing.
