Why Democrats think Biden’s problem is Biden (www.politico.com)

Democrats keep doing surprisingly well in special elections. The party’s most vulnerable Senate incumbents are running ahead of their rivals in key battleground states. One of Democrats’ signature issues — reproductive rights — has repeatedly proved a winning message....

It should have been Bernie Sanders. Hillary lost to Trump in every poll, simulation, test, mock up, etc. Bernie Didn’t.

Prosecutors say Alec Baldwin was ‘engaged in horseplay’ with gun before fatal shooting (www.theguardian.com)

Fewer than three weeks before actor Alec Baldwin is due to go on trial in Santa Fe, New Mexico, prosecutors have said that he “engaged in horseplay with the revolver”, including firing a blank round at a crew member on the set of Rust before the tragic accident occurred....

The key word is functional. Make it physically/mechanically incapable of firing. I’ve been in stage productions that used non-functioning firearms working on my undergrad. They were still locked away. The professor who was the technical director and armorer was the only one who had a key to that safe. They handed it to the props master who handed it to the actor. When the prop wasn’t in use during the run, the props master had it on their person. When the performance was over, it immediately when back into the safe and locked away. If it is absolutely necessary for it to function then only blanks and only in use when needed. Not using it to play a prank. Not using it to fire rounds after the shoot is over. Baldwin and the armorer are absolutely at fault here for failing to maintain safety protocols.

Most people at least in the South just say, “Turn on the air,” when talking about the AC.

Imagine that mission in the original Modern Warfare 2 but making that feeling last the entire game. 10/10 won’t be playing again any time soon.

Defunctland has some of the best researched stuff I’ve seen. His dive into the Disney Channel Theme is absolutely incredible.

Grape compote or coulis reduction. Not relish.

My St. Bernard, Rosie, would agree. She’s such a big scaredy cat.

This quote always goes hand in hand with that one for me.

Since it is so likely that (children) will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. Otherwise you are making their destiny not brighter but darker.

Because when idiots hear Socialism they see Communism and it’s frighteningly easy to start a red scare propaganda campaign to keep him off the big ticket.

Ken Paxton, as a born and bred Texan I feel comfortable in saying you and your cronies can go fuck yourself. Paxton and Abbott are among the worst things to happen to this state.

The campaign for TitanFall 2 was one of the best FPS campaigns I’ve played in a while.

The Middlemist’s Red, rarest flower on earth (www.southsideblooms.com)

The Middlemist’s red belongs to the camellia genus and was imported from China as a luxury item in 1804, but was wiped from its native country. The credit for bringing the flower to Chiswick, West London, goes to a nurseryman from Shepherd’s Bush named John Middlemist, who the flower was named after....

I used it in a wedding between two men that I officiated.

Not really, but both grooms gave me a verse to read and they pretty much gave me carte blanche for the rest of the ceremony.

My last phone was the Note 20+ and before that the Note 10+. Recently switched to the Pixel 8 pro. I have no desire to return to Samsung.

The best bully defense is an overwhelming and unrelenting offense. Yes, I realize there are many reasons why bullies bully. As one who was bullied constantly up through middle school, the only thing that made them stop is when I lashed back. Not mediation; not getting teachers involved; not ultimatums. Make them regret choosing you as their target.

His Nessun Dorma gets a lot of praise (and it should) but this aria is probably my favorite from Pavarotti.

The fact that the zoo is not considering Spot as a name is criminal.

Why shouldn't electric plugs screw in?

I just watched a TikTok about how people used to plug in things to their light sockets when electricity was first becoming popular. And they kept calling the plug a light socket, what rule says it’s not a plug that screws in? And why shouldn’t plugs screw in? We have material science to make plugs and cables hard enough that...

Charlie Brown isn’t bald. He has blonde hair. What do you think that squiggle in his forehead is supposed to be?
