Rarely been happier to have a flight delay, but even then was cuttin it reeeeeal close.

SUCCESSFUL PURCHASE OF A BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN TICKET ON A JET BRIDGE OF AN ACTIVELY BOARDING PLANE

This is the sketchiest thing I’ve ever done but I’m so thankful our flight was an hour delayed. On the other hand, cutting it kinda close here. Nevertheless, bought a ticket on the jet bridge like a GAWD DAMN BOSS.

I’m paying for grad school and am prepared to slap this on a credit card because we’re nearing Bob Dylan/how long can he keep this up mode in my eyes.

I am prepared for a whole gamut of emotions.

My goodness what a move

"It feels good to laugh"

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

In The Mouth of Madness and Blazing Saddles have created time loops.

We’ve moved into “turning on the hockey during the workday” mode.

Tubthumping - assuming one is getting absolutely beaten down.

People are asking questions!

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop

And he could deliver it at a Black separatist meeting, the Democratic National Convention, or on god-blessed Sesame Street (see below 🥹)

STATEMENT FROM LUCIANA DUVALL Yesterday we said goodbye to my beloved husband, cherished friend, and one of the greatest actors of our time. Bob passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by love and comfort. To the world, he was an Academy Award-winning actor, a director, a storyteller. To me, he was simply everything. His passion for his craft was matched only by his deep love for characters, a great meal, and holding court. For each of his many roles, Bob gave everything to his characters and to the truth of the human spirit they represented. In doing so, he leaves something lasting and unforgettable to us all. Thank you for the years of support you showed Bob and for giving us this time and privacy to celebrate the memories he leaves behind.

Robert Duvall, the legendary actor whose career has spanned over six decades, has died at 95, his wife announced

Not sitcom, yeah, yeah.

Saw Wuthering Heights. The first time Jacob Elordi showed up shirtless shoveling hay, the entire theatre let out a collectively low feral moan in unison. 10 of 10, absolutely perfect theatergoing experience.

In a world where Indiana Football Team Won the National Title Game, RETVRN cannot be wholly off the table.

Opeth!

Riviera concert letting out, maybe (I just came from there)

I, um, well, the results here, um.

Fascinating.

I’ve been known to spontaneously yell “TUSK” whenever I hear any kind of rhythmic drumming.

This is great - great start to Monday.

Only one who got the ball into the end zone was Bad Bunny
