They disinvented the VCR. You might think that the reason we don't have VCRs anymore is because VCRs were supplanted by DVDs, PVRs and streaming, but that's not the case. They had it in for the VCR from the very start, and they never stopped trying to kill it. Eventually, they succeeded. 1/

A 1960s family living room in which a mom, dad and two kids are mesmerized by a cabinet-style TV. The image has been altered. The TV has an early 1990s VCR atop it. The TV screen is displaying a cross-sectioned human head with brains and spine on display. A huge fist has materialized in the room, with bloody spiked knuckle-dusters, smashing into the VCR. The oil painting over the sofa has been replaced with a pulp image of a male head, its cranium removed and replaced by a dome. Inside the dome is a red eight-segment VCR clock, displaying 12:00. The background in the painting is a tangle of cassette tape. The whole image's colors have been boosted, giving it an overexposed look.

🚨 IS THIS YOUR GRANDMA 🚨 We recently received these found photos of a grandma getting an NES for her birthday. We've determined it was October 1990, it was her 65th birthday, and she was in Miami, FL. Did she like Duck Hunt

An older woman with curly white hair unwrapping a Nintendo Entertainment System.

Grandma is happy with her Nintendo Entertainment System Action Set. In the background, there is a man with a horseshoe mustache, wearing a Miami Hurricanes hat and a t-shirt for Cozzoli's in the Grove Pizza. Faintly visible is a birthday cake with the number 65 in candles.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Kurt Vonnegut stop being so applicable to all time periods of American life, you can’t do that Kurt Vonnegut, your insights are too evergreen Kurt Vonnegut

For some reason, the most vocal Christians among us never mention the Beatitudes (Matthew 5). But, often with tears in their eyes, they demand that the Ten Commandments be posted in public buildings. And of course, that's Moses, not Jesus. I haven't heard one of them demand that the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes, be posted anywhere.
'Blessed are the merciful' in a courtroom?
'Blessed are the peacemakers' in the Pentagon? Give me a break!

From @knkx.org Daytime booze-free parties at coffee shops are gaining steam around the country. The main ingredients are caffeine and dancing, but in predominantly-white Seattle, these parties are a space for people with Latino roots to let loose and connect.
