guy said, β€œDo you like Marx?”

I said, β€œI haven’t met him.”

Guy said, β€œNo, no, he’s dead.”

β€œWow, what happened?”

β€œNo, no, he died long ago.”

I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, β€œWhy are you asking me if he died long ago?” 

β€œNo, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.” 

I said, β€œSounds amazing.”

I’m giving you a sense of how naΓ―ve I was. After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx.

BS: The FBI.

MM: The FBI. Then, of course, I took a class on Marx. Couldn’t just get Marx out of the library. But,

Brilliant design! When trying to hit a moving target you aim slightly ahead of it.
Good luck telling what's bow and what's stern on this thing.

Regular reminder that no matter how misshapen and useless a French aircraft in WW2 was, Heller would do a kit in 1:72 of it, and we should all be grateful.

Diagram of a safety razor inside a pyramid. The diagram notes that the razor blade itself should align north/south to allow the magnetic flow to work to its full advantage. Its full advantage, of course, being absolutely bugger all, but send your dollars NOW!

Does anybody else find it odd that you don't hear much about pyramids keeping razor blades sharp any more?

When did they stop working?

Llandudno Remembrance Parade 2025 witnessed an act so audacious that Bond would have been impressed. This individual waltzed in, mingled with the Chain Gang et al and laid a wreath. The catcher? No one knows who the feck he is. Whoever he is he Walted big and hard. I'm not even angry, I'm impressed.

Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

Alexander Lippisch's RFB-X113, a wing in ground effect aircraft (or boat in air effect, if you prefer) skimming along underneath it's prop engine and only slightly threatening to catch a wingtip - which is a bit unsettling. Unlike the more famous Russian ekranoplans the wings are quite broad, enabling it to fly higher off the water.

Given the state of my timeline I suspect I'm not the only one in need of an emotional support ekranoplan...

UPDATE: Now that 8 Senate Dems folded to Trumpβ€”Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds.

What? Moving goal posts? Lucy and the football? Who Could Have Seen This Coming??

This is what I try to always tell people: food banks can do way more with your money than you can, due to bulk buying deals. And they can do way, way more with your money than with the canned goods you didn’t want to eat

Coincidentally this is the same exact condition shared by Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.

I don't think it gets mentioned enough that Bovino is a member of the civil service. He is not a political appointee. Yet he still engages in constant open partisanship while in uniform and with a DHS flag behind him.

A woman standing in her kitchen. She is taking a photo of herself and her boyfriend who is just a circulatory system. The text reads: It is November 10th now. Your circulatory system boyfriend stands by your pan in the kitchen. Unattended cooking is the number one cause of home fires. There are more home fires on Thanksgiving than any other day of the year. Always stand by your pan.

I will not give into Doomerism. Fuck that shit. That’s just collaboration under the shroud of doing something. They want you to spiral and feel like a ghost. That’s how they win. Don’t let the fuckers win.
