I was hoping that was soup.

I know three people who were raptured yesterday. My uncle vanished right in front of me. Sad that it was so few.

Seriously. Research disappearances of people that took place yesterday. I guess we all should have been better.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Kimmel’s monologue was not making fun of Kirk’s death. At all. Just Trump’s blasé reaction to it.

It’s easy to break things.

Not so easy to build things.

Fifteen minutes? How could I narrow it down that far?

"Smart people don't like me." - Donald Trump, accidentally telling the truth

When I die, instead of a moment of silence, I would like fifteen minutes of low murmuring.

Also, Utah already has the death penalty.

Remember when Rush Limbaugh died and the right made such a big deal about what a great guy he was? Remember how Trump called him a legend and a patriot?

Consider now that, after the sobbing died down, everyone went back to regarding him a scumbag?

Yeah, don’t worry. History will judge.

We must demand a public retraction and apology from Conservatives/Republicans who blamed Democrats.

Trump is now having a conniption deciding whether or not to pardon Tyler Robinson.

Republicans in Congress have voted to protect wealthy pedophiles.

Why? Use the sense God gave a goose. I’m sure you can figure it out.

The new Connections. Could my current favorite TV show have something to do with it? Or is it all a trick?

A great appreciation of Jaime Hernandez’s great body of work.

From The Gulag Archipeligo by Solzhenitsyn. In the Soviet Union, the experts were tried and executed and the know-nothings were in charge. Sound familiar?

The Dunning-Kruger Effect.

110 day streak on Connections.

Started reading this. In the second chapter, barbecue is spelled “barbeque”. Uuuurk! Brain comes to screeching halt!

My beef with how the Kobo app works on the Boox Palma: Even though I have bought and downloaded the book, I can't open the app to read without going online. This uses more battery. I can go offline right after I open it, but WTF? The Kindle app doesn't require this.

I’ve been in five productions of this play: Three times as Freddie, once as Lloyd, and most recently as Selsdon.

I’ve been reading some disappointing reviews. I can’t wait for the FF though. From the trailer, I already think it’s the best depiction of Ben Grimm in live action to date.

Well, just wait and see what you think when you get a few episodes into Season 2. It gets weirder. Wonderfully so. But I so want it to have a satisfying windup. BTW, I'm going to start reading The Plot today.
