Which the universe decided to continue the bit about to the tune of Who Let The Dogs Out!

Picturing the one human translator not replaced by AI at Duolingo sneaking this in is nice. German duolingo just teaches you that Germans solve medical problems with a lot of tea and that the witch lives in the woods and that the train is late, so cultural facts I guess.

That accent reminded me of when I was a beard for football players during prom season bc their moms were on pills and thought laying on a thicker Foghorn Leghorn accent made them more charming but they'd forget to keep it going. I fear HBO has teamed up with ERK so you’ll see more of his “content.”

You’ve got Proton Mail (Swiss) and Qwant search engine (French) to replace Google items, for starters

Would that I could but half of essential German bureaucracy was deeply committed to the fax machine until this year

It was my pleasure to deliver only the most highbrow of clubbing experiences (or car events?) on that visit ♥️ I wish Mr. Lynch had found a world more interested in accommodating his needs to make more fever-dreamy art and avoid covid this decade.

Two stages of writing:

1) This shouldn't take too long
2) Oh no

Counterpoint: people are usually less loud on them! I love a night flight (but I am sans child).

Actually there IS now because a couple of weeks after this, the editor in chief asked to publish it in the summer 2024 issue: thesewaneereview.com/articles/p-t...

Nooo it’s the kind of tequila that is actually 49% distilled sugar cane instead of agave, like Cuervo Gold! Coca Cola and red wine is far more acceptable

Like, Malört with prosecco??Wow.
If you enjoy that, maybe we can punish each other with Brennivín and ginger beer in the future!

I like pastis, too! This was a whole different experience. Like if you like tequila and someone tries to serve you well mixto or you like rum and someone suggests Malibu.

There was also banana! I think those were the only flavors that masked the anise fully. It was a night to remember and a hangover I will never forget.

There was a French liquor brand that tried to make pastis youthful and chic in Paris 10 years ago. They took a page from the Absolut playbook and set up cute kiosks at some Parisian gay parties with free drinks. The flavors made it somewhat easier to drink, but with unintended disastrous results.

It’s a shame that the neon colored fruit and mint flavored pastis from the sample wagon outside of Rosa Bonheur is not for sale in the US

I was fed a Murder Mitten Moonshine that might fit the bill

Golden Cadillac! Heavy cream, the stench of Galliano, and it is tacky

I met Ana Helder when we were DJs at Dengue Dancing in Buenos Aires and now, 15 years later, am so happy to be releasing her latest EP on my label. Five tracks of multi-faceted groove, don’t miss it 🍊

There’s a new one coming out next month that would also make for a great manicure <3

Just had nurses where my elderly mom sees her PCP ask her “why do you need people to wear a mask around you? We don’t do that anymore” before letting me know “the ADA is for ramps” since this request was framed as an accessibility matter (which it is). In a surge where 1 in 40 US people has COVID.

This has inexplicably warmed my heart! I think it will be more fun to discover this way than via the daily twink discourse

Yellow sticker from the center of a vinyl record with the Nervous Records logo in white at the top. Underneath a cartoon high heel show has been thrown through a cartoon drawing’s hair. It says Whitney Weiss and Whatever underneath the high heel, the artist name and track title.
