YouTube video by Cynical Adult Watches Cartoons DOES THIS EVEN COUNT AS A PEANUTS SPECIAL? A Peanuts In A Nutshell special report!

For years I believed this was called "Snoopy Come Home," but when I learned that's another special I then accepted I'd imagined it. Discovering this video on YT, 45 years later I know what I remembered was "The Stuffed Dog," but not exactly how WEIRD it is as a #Peanuts product. youtu.be/QYhVjYdZeiQ

What if they A.I.-cloned his voice? That'd be extra fucked, but at least he'd be off the hook.

If anyone casts a vote for this, they should be treated as incompetent and their vote should be permanently taken away from them. JFC, I hate this timeline.

Who is Thomas Twining?

HUH. Security mgmt decided that TODAY was good to make me & a ½ dozen others take some manner of retraining seminar. I'm not mad to be off the floor & my feet, and I'm REALLY glad I didn't pregame today, but it feels like a waste of time & manpower regardless. Couldn't I have just slept in instead?

Yup, I'm omw in. I hope the ass-monkeys who insist upon patronizing us today do not expect us to be grateful for their attendance: by even my normal standards I will most likely be curdled and unforgiving, tempered only by possible self-medication. Can I give a dowager a stroke? Place your bets now!

This is the pipeline people refuse to understand. Anti-sex and sex work bias is engrained in society and is inextricably linked to reactionary thoughts. It's a seed planted in your brain during childhood that's ready to sprout fascist roots the moment you give it water. Uproot it or else!

Evangeline Lilly & Chris Pratt, for starters. (Apparently she has literal brain damage; he, as best as I can tell, is huffing Mark Wahlberg's farts.)

What is "I Am A Monarchic Firecracker" by Tripping Daisy?

As of closing time last night, museum security mgmt assured us we were still on-course to open as usual this morning, but there's new policy that technically grants us add'l emergency time off if we choose to use it. While it's still dark out & I'm drowsy I assume I'm going in: check back in 2 hrs.

What is "Righty-tighty, lefty-moosey"?

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.

“The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”

Any Democrat not promising long prison sentences for Trump officials is one who will accommodate Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg, crypto bros, the gambling companies and every other billionaire. And they'll legitimize it under the Democratic brand, with the power of incumbency.

This is my litmus test.

YouTube video by View Master Travels How a Piano Repairman Invented View-Master, the World’s Most Famous 3D Viewer

A less generally known thing about me is that I love & collect View-Master reels, viewers and other stereoscopy: it's the original and, imnsho, still superior virtual reality. However, I was unaware of its specific origins & how they made the format so enduring.

My dead surety when 10 years old that Power Pack was a real family living in my city from which I might have been switched at birth endorses this truth.
