I can't explain why this amuses me but....my new hobby is talking to AI chat bots on corporate websites like I think they are a real person who is writing to me. As if there has ever been a human alive who EVER spoke or wrote like this.

Yes, yes...it's Valentine's Day. But let's keep our eyes on what is really important this time of year. SQUIRREL SEASON HAS BEGUN!

Wow. THAT's a great one!

Super Bowl Sunday is my favorite day of the year because I can go ANYWHERE I WANT and there is NO ONE ELSE AROUND! No lines! No problems! PERFECT!

WaPost journalists learned they'd been fired in an
e mail that was either titled "Your role has been eliminated by today's workforce reductions." or"Your role has not been impacted by today's workforce reductions." in case you wondered if they exercised any amt of what used to be called "humanity."

Of Mice and Me At this moment in time, trying to figure out what is even meant by “trying to live your best life” is incredibly confusing.

I wrote a new thing. Spoiler alert: It is pro mice. merrillmarkoe.substack.com/p/of-mice-an...

Yeah. I thought so too!

None of us will.

Quick. Go pitch it to Paramount before they change ownership.

New candidate for the funniest thing in 2026. At least this week. It just showed up on my Google search page.

So close and yet so far away.

In honor of Martin Luther King day, I offer this nicely written but poorly spelled homage by my nephew, written when he was 7 years old. Now in his thirties, he shall remain nameless as he would be beyond annoyed at me for continuing to post this thing.

Having put red meat back at the top of the food pyramid, RFK Jr. just decided that starting today, chocolate pudding should be considered a vitamin.

RFK Jr is about to introduce new dietary guidelines that encourage eating MORE red meat and high fat cheese.
Now all that is left for him to make his healthy living plan complete is recommend that everyone hold their breath in order to take in less oxygen.
