PSA: Taco Bell’s Olivia Rodrigo Baja blast tastes like fizzy pink lemonade, so if you, like me and @ashmcgonigal.com, have always enjoyed pink lemonade but wished it were fizzy, your time is now!

The Taco Bell x Olivia Rodrigo x Baja Blast collab, with the cup that has a pic of Rodrigo with script around her saying “You seem pretty pink for a Baja Blast.”

Joke was on James; Ash let him have a try but he wound up licking the fire sauce so then he ran away 😂

But in happier news, the other chrysalis seems to be doing well and even has some bling! I suppose it tracks that the monarch chrysalis has a crown.

A bedewed monarch chrysalis. It has a “crown” of gold dots near the top, plus at least two more toward the bottom.

Still no real change on this one, so we’re pretty sure it didn’t make it and no, that’s not opening up any womb twin survivor wounds for me at all, why do you ask?

America.gov launched today--a DOGE initiative to use AI to deliver public services. Child lying facedown on a frozen lake as the image accompanying the question: "How can I invest in my child's future" is just incredible. Way to go AI

Image of a child lying facedown on a froze lake. above is the portal where you ask AI questions about government services. the question matching this image is: "How can I invest in my child's future?"

Finished watching the 11-season run of Cheers, and I’m just flabbergasted by how much better Frasier was. Cheers was a good show, I’m glad I watched it, but no individual episodes stand out, and I don’t think I’ll want to rewatch it. Frasier was absolutely brilliant (even if Grammer is a POS).

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...

I've been trying to look this up. I found the same photo signed by the cast -- with signatures from Steven Weber, Crystal Bernard, and Tim Daly

Pluto TV is suggesting we watch Wings, and who the hell is the woman who isn’t Crystal Bernard? I’m scouring the cast list and cannot figure it out. There’s no Amy Yasbeck or Tony Shalhoub, so it’s an earlier season.

Poster for the sitcom Wings as advertised on Pluto TV. From left to right it’s Steven Weber, ?????????, Crystal Bernard, and Tim Daly.

The thing about "estrangements" is that often the parents feel that the "incident" blindsides them, comes out of nowhere, while the children protecting themselves by withdrawing from the relationship describe the relationship as toxic and decaying for years and years prior to the rupture.

This car DOES NOT RATTLE. If you've ever been in a Miata you know what a bold claim that is. But with the top up, all you hear is engine and wind.

Are you in the middle of the country or willing to make the trip to buy the prettiest little car on the planet? Hit me up.

2003 Mazda MX-5 Miata, golden hour. No rattles, no leaks, mechanically great.

The Miata more recently but with with a less impressive sky

Kelly “Free Link” McGonigal @kellysmcgonigal.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

So we held off on putting up the Miata for sale until it wasn’t 7000 degrees outside, and it’s not anymore, but instead it’s raining, which isn’t exactly optimal weather to be selling a convertible, and we really need the weather to cooperate with us 🤬

Oh fuck off lol This is just silly. Bringing a beverage to an interview is not at all a predictor of work performance. But micromanaging someone’s hydration IS a sign off a shitty manager.

We’re getting a little worried about the other chrysalis. It’s still unchanged, and from what I’ve seen online this phase is only supposed to take like a day tops.

I can’t find the skeet from when I first heard about it, but I just saw a YouTube of Shatner performing “Enter Sandman” and I would like to reiterate that this is clearly a man shocked he’s still alive so he’s doing increasingly obscure side quests because why not?

Bittersweet ride this evening as @ashmcgonigal.com took pics of the Miata to put it up for sale. Realized after all these years we never got an ussie while in the car so we rectified that! Also, a huge bald eagle flew over us as we drove around Clinton Lake.

Me and Ash in all our smiley, tie-dyed glory. We’re in the Miata with the top down, and I’m wearing one of Nora Reed’s famous kraken necklaces.

I LOVE Britney, but good lord Gimme More is one of her worst songs and I hate that so many companies are using/adapting that song for their ads now. Some company (I haven’t been paying attention) adapted it to “Gimme Pour” which doesn’t help the situation any

Reskeeting this for the morning crowd. He did speed up the timing on the video so it would fit with the song length, but he had no idea the rockets would take off in time with “as we jump into the final frontier” like omg I can’t believe how good the timing is

We decided to give Enterprise a try. First of all, I take back all the bad things I said about DS9’s theme song. At least it’s orchestral like the others! What the Nickelback fuck is the Enterprise theme?
