Joel A. Machiela

Just start the movie with him getting a few stitches. We’ll all chuckle and move on.

What’s your “oh shit, I guess I gotta dance!” song. This is probably mine, followed very closely by “It Takes Two.”

I mute every account that posts any generalization about Americans. Shit, you can get anyone on a single block to agree on anything. There is no ubiquity among the 340+ million people across 3.8 million square miles.

THE PEOPLE NEED THIS!

I do not care for these black Eagles helmets. Green is so much nicer.

Breaking Away (TV Series 1980–1981) ⭐ 7.3 | Drama, Family 1h

Apparently there was a very short-lived tv show version of Breaking Away.

Airheads candy, white mystery flavor.

White Mystery is what they called me when I played college ball*

*I did not play college ball or have any cool nicknames.

I didn’t know we were poor. My mom did her damned best to hide that from us.

Saw a story in my local paper about school employees delivering food to families, and it reminded me of the time we had a food drive at school that we brought cans in for and then later that night someone from the district knocked on our door and gave us food. My mom was devastated and embarrassed.

An oil painting of a Grimpowlteuthis: A barn owl's head on the body and arms of a grimpoteuthis 'dumbo' octopus. With small owl wings on the head where the octopus would have fins. The owl head is shades of white and brown looking off to the left a bit. The octopus portion is pinks and purples, with the arms all curling up on themselves around its body. This is all painted on collaged pages from a Japanese wrestling magazine. There is different sizes and typefaces of Japanese text and decontextualized photos of wrestling and wrestlers, but mostly text.

I would like to sell some paintings.

Please, can we have a non thrilling win?

Hi, this person makes good art. I have several posters that he made and several t-shirts that he designed. He may have designed some of the labels on your favorite beers. Buy some shit, y’all.

The only good thing about this evening is seeing Aaron Rodgers disappointed several times.

I haven’t lived there for about 14 years, but it feels like there hasn’t been significant November snow for a really long time there—more common when I was a kid.

He got booed, flipped off & called names
LANDOVER, Md. @apnews.com — the first sitting president in nearly a half-century at a regular-season NFL game, attending the Washington Commanders’ contest against the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

I still need Wilco to take my suggestion to name their next albums “Lake Effect” and “Cooler By the Lake.”
The artwork on the latter is easy. Set up a an old Coleman cooler on the North Avenue beach.

Looks like Rodgers has a new helmet. I’m used to seeing him in one of those completely smooth old school helmets.

@ossoff.bsky.social If you cave on this, your seat has no value to us. No donations. No support. PLEASE hold the line. No CR without the ACA subsidies.

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov: compromising with fascists is compliance. Read the room. Do your jobs. Protect your constituents.

Football announcers, you don’t have to say “utilize.” You can just say “use.”

I’m going to take a lot of the credit for this win. But yeah, Caleb played pretty well, too.

Not quite, but I’ll take it!

Okay, can we get a Landeta here?

So many drops.

Which one of the two men holding him was he holding?

So the guy being double teamed got called for defensive holding?

Why is it illegal to even look at a quarterback’s legs, but an O lineman can straight up throw his body at a D lineman’s knees?

I’m not sure if the Bears know they’re allowed to tackle. I know they get flagged a lot when they do, but still.

Good defense by the WR.
