The Chehalis tribe of Washington State just south of Olympia have retaken possession of land along the I-5 corridor. This is how they repurposed the billboard facing the freeway.

Ah yes, self policing. That's worked out so well in society. In fact, I arrested myself for stealing the other day. I then sentenced myself to no dessert because I was bad.

I love that all I have to say when I get my COVID booster is that I have high BMI and that counts as a pre-existing condition. Got that, a flu shot, and the first of two Hep-B shots yesterday. In other news, both arms hurt. No fever though, knock on wood.

As a kid I always assumed they changed Janine (which I hated) to match Ghostbusters 2 not realizing the timeline didn't add up and they were just sexist assholes www.latimes.com/archives/la-...
Last season, Janine, the secretary on “The Real Ghostbusters,” produced for ABC by DIC Enterprises in association with Columbia Pictures Television, was a sharp-edged, miniskirted wisecracker with pointed glasses, dangling bracelets and a fountain of spiky hair. As a result of Q5’s input, she will have softer features, smoother hair, big round glasses and no jewelry. ABC will complete the package with a demure knee-length skirt.

ABC and Q5 believe that the new slant will make the show more accessible to children, especially to little girls who might find the new Janine more appealing. Q5’s work with writers included a separate seminar on the little-girl audience. “The fact that she is now warmer I think is fine,” Trias said.
