Enjoyed this article about the growing number of men adopting cats, bucking gender stereotypes. Apparently Mamdani is allergic to cats, but has been getting allergy shots because his wife wants to adopt one. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/s...

Last week, I was chatting w a couple I met at the bar that night, younger than me by a generation-ish, & it was felt about as natural as chatting with strangers at a bar has ever felt to me. Though I never even hinted (not intentionally, anyway!) at anything to do with the topic, at one point...1/x

Born in '74, love to watch classic movies I never saw while growing up... Somehow missed the titan "9 to 5" (had fuzzy memories a bit mixed up with "Tootsie," which I'd seen), so I finally fixed that. Yes ma'am, I know. You were cute as a button, & I laughed my butt off at the movie; lots of fun!

Last night a miracle happened and our cat Lola returned home after missing since May. I heard a soft meow outside, and there she was the same gorgeous baby as before if not a bit slimmer. It's a good Monday and I am so happy she's home.

We were singing “Make ‘Em Laugh,” and during one take, when he got to the line “My dad said, ‘Be an actor, my son’” he added, sotto voce, “Boy, was HE wrong.” I burst out laughing, and so did everyone else. That, and the times that we actually DID make Tim laugh, are my favorite memories of him.

Fuck. No. The greatest human being to ever live. Was thinking about Steel Magnolias when the director shouted at her in front of everyone and told her she couldn’t act and had no idea why they’d hired her she said “Because I’m Dolly Parton, and they hired you to make me look like I can act.”

I heard this explained as the potluck theory of free speech. Found the original post but not sure who the author is.

I was thinking of the "free exchange of ideas" last night. You know, it's not like a market, it's like a potluck. Everyone brings their own ideas and you sample others and some are familiar with a twist, some are interesting but not to your taste, some are bad, some are lifechanging. You can get into a discussion about recipes or technique, or what have you as people talk about the food.

If some brings mashed potatoes, you can debate the appropriateness for a potluck: is it too bland? Will it get cold on the table? Do potatoes make up too much of our diet?

But if someone puts a steaming platter of dog shit on the table, we're not going to debate it. And when we tell them to take it off the table, it's not because we are afraid of eating their dog shit or we think that it's going to revolutionize lunch but we don't want to allow that to happen.

We tell them to get it off the table because there is no debate to be had. It's dog shit. It's not an open question, it's not a matter of palettes or picky eaters.

That's why we don't engage with neo-nazis and white supremacists, and it's why we don't (or shouldn't) let them come to the potluck.

perhaps the key to getting a video game ceo who can't shut the fuck up to put a sock on it, particularly one who's glazing ai like they're starting up a new religion, is to teach them to model the behavior via said amazing power of ai

Google search "shut the fuck up" with ai overview: "I will stop talking now."
