You know how shareholders can sue companies with a derivative suit because the company is being harmed?

It would be nice to be able to sue the US govt. How about citizenship as standing?

The standard is very high, btw. You must show a lack of business judgment, like fraud or gross negligence.

I would like to thank the next mayor of NYC @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for providing a great and easy Halloween costume for brown, bearded people like me.

Also, he provides hope during this reality. Thanks.

Mamdani’s Speech About Being Muslim Resonates Beyond New York City

I don't talk a lot about being brown, but there are some downsides and experiences I'd like to forget.

Intriguing proposition, my friend. I haven't had CT pizza in a while (over 20 years ago). There's a New Haven pizza joint in Howard Beach, NY. You think that's close enough?

I'd like 4 slices of buffalo chicken pizza. There's a pizzeria two blocks away that sells such slices.

I'm sure that four slices will be eaten today, but I'll let the universe take care of it.

After watching many episodes of "Desperate Housewives," I have decided that Eva Longoria should play me in a movie (should a movie ever happen).

Chicken Fried Rice Chinese Food GIF ALT: Chicken Fried Rice Chinese Food GIF

I would like some fried rice.

Why do I write these? I generally don't eat fried foods any more (other than Buffalo wings for some reason).

So, if you are in a position to have fried rice, enjoy.

Y'know, reality is absolutely insane right now. Weathering all this is exhausting. So, I have an announcement:

Are you using Kindle Unlimited or are you buying many books?

I'm trying yet another thing by depriving myself of something as a challenge. Why the hell do I do this?

Hmm... 12 years of Catholic school and born a Muslim. Maybe there's a theme... Nah.

Not being a wiseass: how are you reading all these things? Paper books? Audio? Kindle? Other?

If you're into Android tablets, this is worth a look. If you're not, have a slice of pizza on Wednesday.

Until the Switch 2 part I thought you were getting super philosophical.

Nothing like checking @nytimes.com every morning to see how reality is and wondering how long this can go on.

Let's see... earthquakes, plane crashes, invasions, heatwave, and Prime Day coming up. (no this isn't a promo).

This is my personal opinion and not that of any companies I may be associated with:

If you are set on getting an Android tablet, Samsung and Lenovo make the best ones. They essentially fix most of the shortcomings found in Android as a tablet OS.

Does anyone want to play the role of "iyaz akhtar" next week? The guy currently in the part is just terrible.

I do want to try the new touristy stuff like the Edge and the new 30 Rock I-beam thing. Let's go!

I was looking for something to watch on Netflix (for background sound) and saw an interesting premise.

My first thought: Is this in English?

I tapped through.

My second thought: <disappointed> Oh, Mark Wahlberg... </disappointed>

I'll find something else.

This morning on a walk, I enjoyed the sky and the tall buildings of NYC. I hardly ever look up since it's so touristy, but it was nice.

I need to do more analog things, which flies in the face of my chosen career. Huh.

Considering the Flash can phase through things, could he deliver babies by reaching in and vibrating the child out, or would that lead to shaken baby syndrome?

I'm actually asking.

My mind is in the gutter.

Or more in the toilet.

I'll see myself out.
