Oh yeah, Oak Cliff, famous for its pine trees, Sasquatch and UFO sightings. Take my $18!

You’ll be stunned to learn the Paxton ads continue to attack Talarico as a liberal weirdo who thinks there are 6 sexes — refusing to acknowledge his recent anti-trans campaign stance and honorably recognize him as a fellow transphobe! Was that cynical reversal all for nothing?!

Tried ¿Donde Los Tacos? in Oak Cliff and my god, it’s incredible. Ever absentmindedly start eating while reading or doing something else and something tastes so good you kind of do a double take, and drop the other thing to give your full attention to the food? Just had that happen.

The AI industry wants you to say "the AI just did that thing on its own!" Like, United Health's AI that's denying a shitload of claims with a 90% error rate? They wanted you to think it's just the AI.

How do I bet on the following with Kalshi? Now that everyone sees Talarico is just another spineless cookie cutter Dem, his campaign starts sucking wind, voting turnout is abysmal as always in Texas, Paxton wins a squeaker, and blue maga blames the left.

If the heat is killing your car battery, don’t pay a mechanic. Go to an Auto Zone or whatever and have it tested. If needs replacing, they’ll lend you tools if you’re handy and need them. But there’s probably an employee who will just do it without being asked, and a $20 tip will make their day.

Months later, I still laugh every time I recall one of my 7-year-old son’s most random non sequiturs, from a conversation with his 28-year-old sister. Malcolm: Iris, guess what I’m thinking about. Iris: I don’t know, Malcolm. What? Malcolm: Tiny screwdrivers.

Al Pacino in Heat: Hi, How Are You?
Alt: Vincent Hannah (Al Pacino) in Heat says “Hi, how are you?” to Neal McCauley (Robert Deniro) after employing a police helicopter and several officers and vehicles to pursue him. Both are wearing gray suits, Hannah with a black shirt and McCauley with a white shirt. POV is from the passenger seat and below McCauley, who is out of focus in the foreground, sharply focused on a wired, gum-chewing Hannah. The starless L.A. sky is velvet black behind him.
