Of course Jose is indispensable, and has been amazing the last few games. He seems jumpy this game: first-pitch swinging along with the E5. Maybe too amped up for a second win?

Whatever one thinks about this place, all of the larger ones, controlled by Zuckerberg & Musk, are nothing but giant propaganda/misinformation/porn/surveillance machines owned by oligarchs actively collaborating with fascists.

Just like the Stasi and the KGB! I’m old enough to remember when Republicans finger-wagged us about the dangers of the Soviets. Now they *are* the Soviets.

I don’t think this is hyperbole any more. I think it’s true. It’s not about some weird secret tape Putin has — they’re partners in financial crime.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: on the set of the Jerry Springer show, a man sits in a chair. Jerry signals off-stage and says, “we have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the live studio audience is booing. Panel 3: security attempts to break up a fight between the man on stage, and his ancestor, a tiktaalik.

As a former Googler, I don’t know what’s happened to him. When I was there, he and Larry were giving us cash to buy EVs, and having Gorbachev (and Ken Jennings) visit campus. We were so proud! Now he’s… this.

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Collect 'em all!
Another parody Bazooka Joe cartoon, titled IAMBIC JOE x ZELDA FITZGERALD. In panel one she asks Joe if he's seen F. Scott Fitzgerald, and in panel 2 (because Zelda is dressed like a flapper) Joe asks her, "Who are you, Betty Boop?"

Not sure I totally get the joke, but love the daring way they've refreshed Bazooka Joe.
A parody comic, IAMBIC JOE, features the Bazooka Joe character and Mort talking to T.S. Eliot, a man in a tweed suit holding a typewriter. Joe says "Hey Mr. Eliot - How come you're not drinking coffee in the Hofgarten?" In the second panel, Eliot replies, "Because April is the cruellest month."

www.nytimes.com/live/2026/09... Only jarring if you expect Donald Trump to be honest.
A news story says the release of five maybe-not-terrorists-after-all in London conflicts with Donald Trump's earlier statement that "we had them under view for a long time and we got them."

Norway produces more oil than Venezuela. And yet, between January and August 2026, electric vehicles made up 97.8 percent of all new cars sold in that country. Moving to EVs is often based on intelligence, not need. Which is why it lags in the notoriously short-sighted and stupid United States.

Frankly, it has always bothered me that this great advice, this precious "ace that I could keep," doesn't actually tell one how to know WHEN to hold or fold them. Country music lyrics should be logical!
