I get to have fun at my day job. Or rather, night job, as I wrote this sitting in the stands of a girls high school soccer game in Burnsville.

And finally in your news roundup: We all grew up on equal parts fear and admiration for the Tyrannosaurus rex (or at least we
*should* have), and now scientists have discovered the first trackway made by an adult T. rex, and it's in North Dakota. The trackway consists of four footprints providing important information about how the animal moved, and likely making it the first evidence of someone trying to get the hell out of North Dakota.

Friends: It's Big Trouble's last outdoor show of the year at the White Squirrel on Saturday. Would love it if you came.

I think about a line from Foxing's "Trapped in Dillard's" often in terms of my own relationship to existential considerations, but I think it goes a long way to explaining conservatives' enthrallment to cult figures like Trump.

She's saying she believes in god again
And it feels nice to think
That someone's watching from above

But it won't work like that
Cause nothing works like that

The United States is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America in that we don't expect to doing much business with Ontario any longer. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
