"I love and admire my species, living and dead, and am totally dependent on them for my life and well being." Just impossible with this crew.

The second Weird Al song to bring up nuclear apocalypse! The first, of course, being Happy Birthday:
Lyrics to Weird Al's Happy Birthday:

Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you

Well, what's the matter little friend? You think this party is the pits?
Enjoy it while you can, we'll soon be blown to bits
The monkeys in the Pentagon are gonna cook our goose
Their finger's on the button, all they need is an excuse
It doesn't take a military genius to see
We'll all be crispy critters after World War III
There's nowhere you can run to, nowhere you can hide
When they drop the big one, we all get fried
Come on, boys and girls, sing along, okay?

Fortunately, the official Dem statement says exactly that.

Say what you will about the NYT and so much contemptible reporting, but they were one of the few to say this in 2024.

Describe your favorite movie in the most misleading way possible. Despite the disapproval of his neighbors, an intelligent monkey discovers the joy of dance.
An ape-man from 2001 throws his arms up in rage.

Or, you know, dance monkey.

I'm not much of a baker, I'm more of a cook bc precision frustrates me. But my wife is GF and I wanted to do something nice, so I made starter and took a crack at a GF sourdough loaf (I've never made sourdough at all). Used Caputo GF. Honestly? Pretty good - texture's right, taste is good.

I was thinking about his letter Steve Jobs wrote to himself, and while he was a deeply imperfect if not downright toxic person, it seems impossible that any of the current generation of techbros and political leaders could have a moment of introspection like this.

I grow little of the food I eat, and of the little I do grow I did not breed or perfect the seeds.

I do not make any of my own clothing. 

I speak a language I did not invent or refine. 

I did not discover the mathematics I use.

I am protected by freedoms and laws I did not conceive of or legislate, and do not enforce or adjudicate.

I am moved by music I did not create myself.

When I needed medical attention, I was helpless to help myself survive.  

I did not invent the transistor, the microprocessor, object oriented programming, or most of the technology I work with.

I love and admire my species, living and dead, and am totally dependent on them for my life and well being.

Okay, the Caputo GF flour is really the best for bread-y kind of applications. Had a second go around using it for pizza tonight and it was really the closest I've gotten to a traditional crust. Rose beautifully and very easy to work with.

Text from the Maximum Z Winter Z ‘24 Script Showcase:

BLITZ KIDS

Dimitri Mark LaBarge

Drama/Musical

In 1982 London, a queer Puerto Rican singer-songwriter’s rise to stardom is jeopardized by an ill-advised romance, her disintegrating New Wave band, and a world suddenly careening towards all-out nuclear war.
