I don't know if it's a low quality fact or not but I heard that no one but British people get sunburnt.

The klaxon alert in your collection combines both for full effect!

It's tempting.

Jesus, our Lord and Savior, liked wine.

@mozilla.org is killing Pocket, so links like this one will stop working soon.

Especially because Dayton no longer has direct flights to NYC as of September!

I did. It was just a bite, not bad. I don't think it was the Gittleman recipe though.

"Downtown is dangerous," claim some naive Dayton area suburbanites.

I was surprised to see the Log Cabin Republicans there today. I said "Happy Pride!" to every booth but them!

They started off in Dayton, so it probably didn't take much to get used to hell. ;-)

I don't buy many physical books any more, but I always get Edmund White's books in hardcover. He's been like a gay uncle. It is sad to see him go.

You know some of us would like to see that.

I do like yours better but you practically begged me to see what AI would turn up. I disable AI results when googling (add "-ai" to your search terms), and I hate Gemini on my phone, but now it thinks I want to interact with it. Guess I should have known better.

#daytondeservestoflytonyc but now both AA and Delta have cancelled their DAY-LGA routes.

It's so annoying. AA switched a September flight I had booked for LGA-DAY to LGA-CLT-DAY, so I cancelled and rebooked with Delta. Luckily Delta's cancellation of this route takes effect after my flight, but no direct Dayton to NYC flights is sad.

Does anyone ever ask if you're British, or does your accent swing back to more American?

I'm in Turner's district too. I don't bother writing him. He doesn't care what I think. I've got better things to do, like volunteering at a food pantry.

You're from Michigan, quite a bit farther from Appalachia, so I suppose you're to be forgiven for not knowing just how many people from Appalachia moved to southwest Ohio. Hence names like "Hubertucky" for Huber Heights. Hillbillies abound in this area. They're JD's core constituency.

Unfortunately the vast majority of his constituents are completely fine with this. I can't blame him for not wanting to answer questions. He doesn't have to.

Aarrgh! Don't take away my DAY-LGA flight, American Airlines!

America's Voice is now Silent With all the damage the current administration has inflicted over the past few months, the one agency I was most surprised and deeply saddened to see fall was VOA (Voice of America) and its affiliates...
