Still laughing at Jake Paul taking a 5K run around a 22ft ring and getting his jaw broke are at the end of it.

Dubois needs to put Usyk away early tonight. Get on his chest and drop him within 5 rounds, anything past that and he has no chance.

I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. 

Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country β€” as if these people haven't lived through enough horror...

I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question β€” it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. 

A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. 

Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. 

...

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

Watching the orchestrators of the Corbyn Coup d’tat flail and squirm in power is delicious.

Might have had a bit of a tear at that Prodigy set. Maxim stood there statue still while the unmistakable silhouette of Keith danced behind him. Proper band.

Ever since PJ Proby ripped the arse out his trouser on stage there has been outrage and consternation over rock n roll. Kneecap are keeping up the proud tradition of poking the bear, but please don’t take their satire of the establishment (they are making the BBC look utterly ridiculous) as cynicism

That pretty cynical. Whatever the provocation in their message it IS delivered with sincerity and genuine concern. We need more Kneecap and Bob Vylan.

Todays purchase. Recorded in 1991 for $3000 dollars, it is the antithesis of an over produced record. It sounds like it was recorded at the bottom of pond, you can hear every chord change on the fretboard. It’s visceral, powerhouse of a record by a band at the absolute height of their powers.

It’s a truly wonder book. Insightful and poignant. Will is a lovely man and a talented artist. I have a Carruthers original hanging in my wall. Hopefully he makes it onto this platform.

All men dream: but not equally. Those that dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find it was vanity: but dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.
