With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

Wait, a society that championed rugged individualism has a loneliness epidemic? No kidding? That's so weird!

Defying DeSantis, Florida Pride Marchers Light Up Jacksonville Bridge with Rainbow Organizers demonstrated that they didn’t need state permission for queer visibility.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride.

So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels.

They opened the drawbridge to block them.

So they marched to a different bridge.

Mine was one of the "traitors". I am extremely cynical that my calling will mean anything.

At an extremely high level, based on Shumer's statement that the alternative was worse (unfettered budget control by DJT), I have to admit I am conflicted.

Damned if you do, or don't

Right there with you. One time in Thailand I ordered a Thai spicy curry, and the restaurant staff kept peering around the corner to look at me with concern in their eyes. I managed to eat about half of it as well. It tasted absolutely delicious, before everything in my mouth stopped working properly
