Dolly Parton is listed on the patent for a CoVID19 vaccine.

If I didn't already know she is a genuine one, that would have clued me in. Because she does a lot of of other charity work.

Sure, Haberman, if you consider any crime anywhere. And ignore that crime has been down for like 4 years now? And was trending lower before the GOP decided the pandemic was a reason to encourage more antisocial behavior.

March of 2020. Guy did 3 and a half years of "We'll replace AHA with something so much better" and these people are still huffing that helium?

I've fooled myself about some things here and there, but this kind of stuff? I still don't get how this happens.

Gay jobs reports are why I personally worship the Bismarck and make sure everyone knows it.

I see what you did here and I think you did it well enough that I can't find a way to riff on it that doesn't get a "Well, duh" response.

I think we should care about other people. There is no way I can lower that standard.

OK, I am 6 hours late to this, but having seen you at Parx in Bensalem, you don't eat children. In basements or otherwise.

Hope This Helps.

Given your criteria, I thought it matched well. It all built the only way it could have.

I think Men in Black did the same. And Kelly's Heroes. Couldn't have played out any other way.

Das Boot was just because I didn't want to be a total comedy guy, but I think it works.

You have some great movies in there, probably half of which I've seen because I lean action comedy.

So -- Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.
Bill And Ted's Bogus Journey
Men in Black

Oh, this might be @edsolomon.bsky.social heavy.

Das Boot.
Bachelor Party.
Kelly's Heroes.

But as a real person, am I correct in asking Vermeule what the fuck they are talking about?

Yes, you are explaining it well, but not to Vermeule, and I can't fault you for that because that's just going to have a lot of shitty people bad faith arguing with you.

I'm not going to say I've seen the Phillies do this exact thing? But I'm not going to say I've not seen it.

You, sir, are a Philistine.

I have yet to find a pizza I do not like. There are some I like a lot better than others, but there are no pizzas I do not like.

Also, this is facetious. You should like what you like and not like what you don't like. It's just a pizza discussion needs drama, right?

The worst part is the USA has a lot of innovation and progress in all of the Smithsonian and they are going to fuck it all up.

It feels like the first session of any course is now going to be a discussion of AI and how students are going to be graded on how well they express their own thoughts and ideas. And that LLMs can't do that by definition.

LLMs did not write any of my skeets about #Oathbreakers and D&D.

Ideologues on the Supreme Court. Who could have foreseen the problems.

Oh right, the people who wrote the Constitution who said Congress decides how the courts are set up.

I say when the Dems get Congress, they make Sotomayor the only Supreme Court Justice.

Yes, this part is silly.

You are correct that somehow an ignorant showman got a lot of people to vote for him when things were bad due to GOP policies that Dems didn't fix fast enough this time. And there's no one in the wings to take over. And he isn't going to live much longer.

But we need actual progressives to run.

I've watched a lot of early Project Runway, so I can't really argue with that.

Spencer Holst - The Zebra Storyteller

I maintain, and post this whenever I can plausibly show a sliver of a connection, that this page and a half short story explains a lot.

The one they went back and made three movies before it to make Tokyo Drift fit in continuity.

I enjoyed it, but I'm not sure it fit in the rest of the movies necessarily.

Slightly diminish a band -- Metallemonade.

Gray Sabbath? Somewhat Meh Sabbath?

Quiet Milling Around.

Mouse. (This one may only make sense if you know that Ratt wanted to call themselves Mickey Ratt.)

2 - How does a child get the sobriquet "The Bald"? Was it from later in life and projected back, so we all know who you're talking about?

I didn't think Charles Martel was The Hammer at age 7, and if he was, well then the Merovingians should have known what was coming.
