Northern lights for the second time in my lifetime. From my front porch in Conover, North Carolina, about 10:15 p.m., with night vision enhancement. #Aurora #NCwx

It's not THAT difficult, writers! Just acknowledge that James Bond is a reassigned name, like 007 is a reassigned number (which has been canon). George Lazenby's "other fella" line established reassigned name canon 56 YEARS AGO. radaronline.com/p/james-bond... www.facebook.com/share/r/1EuH...

That's when Toad's drinking problem started.

The cruelty is, always has been, and always will be the point with President Manbaby. Happy #Thanksgiving! #SNAP

Once saw somebody answer "what did Watson and Crick discover?" with "Rosalind Franklin's notes," that's always been a favorite of mine.

Tell me more about ‘Sleepy Joe.’

I think Walmart Pharmacy texts asked me to sign a prenup. (They don't realize I dumped them for @costplusdrugs.com.)

I'll go with the Dr. Oz math, and weigh somewhere between -40 and -50 pounds before next #Thanksgiving. Plenty of room for turkey! 🦃

Dick Cheney died yesterday. He was the real 43rd president of the United States, if you believe the unauthorized 2018 biopic "Vice" (and I do). He won't get an "RIP and Godspeed" from me. Not that I think he would care. youtu.be/6E-v5yDBR64

hire all the fired political teen vogue writers and make a new magazine call teen rogue.

I think we'll have a 70-yarder by the end of the decade, or within 10 years.

YouTube video by VaRaces Chase Database To Live and Die in L.A. Car Chase (1985) HD

The movie "To Live and Die in L.A." was released 40 years ago today, and includes the second-to-last great movie car chase scene made WITHOUT CGI and other such special effects. (The 1998 film "Ronin" had the last such great scene.) Understandable NSFW language in the link. youtu.be/VOK9QW21VPo

We used to watch college football and NFL games on the only three channels we had. Of course, one-third of U.S. children died that one Halloween because a mass-murder commercial disguised as a "big giveaway" didn't get stopped on the third channel in time. But there had to be a tradeoff! #YouTubeTV

I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So you won't catch me repeating the rumors about JD Vance and Erika Kirk.

One hour before Halloween, #YouTubeTV kicked off trick-or-treating early. With a trick.

Besides your local ABC station, all Disney-branded channels, and all ESPN-branded channels, you also lost all FX-branded channels, all National Geographic-branded channels, and Freeform.

Casa Aguilar has added three ways that the public can help their effort: Donate to their SNAP Relief Fund at (1) GoFundMe www.gofundme.com/f/casa-aguil... or (2) Cash App $CasaAguilarSNAP, or (3) visit the restaurant at 2916 N. Center St. in Hickory, North Carolina, to donate. #TrumpShutdown #SNAP

Casa Aguilar in Hickory, North Carolina, just became my favorite local Mexican restaurant. #TrumpShutdown #SNAP

WaPo still talking about Biden's mental fitness while King Dribble Cup is being led around by the hand in Japan.

Dodged duty five times, mocks those who serve, then claims he’d love to have their job?

The irony could salute itself.

Maybe if the Nobel Peace Prize committee gave Trump a participation trophy, he'd stop sulking. www.news.com.au/world/middle... #Gaza #YouTried

This Sam Adams beer is so strong that it's illegal in 15 states Samuel Adams just brewed a 30% ABV beer, calling the Utopias edition a "milestone." But not everyone will get a taste of it.

North Carolina is among the 15 states where Samuel Adams Utopias 2025 #beer is illegal. Like Coors beer east of the Mississippi River 50 years ago, somebody's going to have to smuggle it. www.boston.com/food/food-ne... @samueladamsbeer.bsky.social

Someone who isn't going to suffer the loss of SNAP benefits for families and children on November 1st thanks to the #TrumpShutdown thinks others suffering it is a good idea. They should try it themselves first. Most, like President Manbaby, look like they could stand to miss a meal or three anyway.

Glentoran investigate footage allegedly showing player at rally linked to New IRA The Northern Irish football club Glentoran are investigating footage that is said to show one of their players attending a dissident republic rally in Derry

He's a Patrick, and he may have sympathies against British security occupation of Northern Ireland. www.theguardian.com/football/202... Two pluses in my book!

President Manbaby being a manbaby is just another reason to root for the Toronto Blue Jays in the #WorldSeries. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

In my day at my alma mater, we #Gamecocks protested:
° Proposed tuition hikes
° The university president
° President Reagan
° Apartheid in South Africa
° The university not divesting from companies doing business in South Africa
We did not protest the football team's offensive coordinator.

As "No Kings Day" draws to a successful close, a reminder of the delirious, mad real king, George III, America said "no" to before it said "no" to the delirious, mad wannabe king today, Donald Trump. (Jonathan Groff is insanely good in this.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5JA...
