In about ten days we should be able to confidently predict who won the election. So we've got that going for us.

Well, Honda is quitting Formula One. I guess that is the big news for the day.

West Sixth Brewing Snake Eyes. Can someone kindly make sure I drag my ass out of bed and get some work done tomorrow?

This is awful.

You're in our thoughts. Seriously.

What the fuck, people? Joe Biden was in Congress when I was in grade school. You think that old, addled moron is going to make anything better? I will once again not vote. Fuck these politicians. And fuck you too if you take this shit too seriously.

Caster is not female. She is intersex. Caster has a Y chromosome. That's the way the ball bounces very infrequently.

pretty much every Olympic athlete (except perhaps a couple of horseback riders, where IMO it's the horse doing the work) I thought we were friends. :( Oh, I don't deny horseback riding and horse-handling is a skill, and one which I entirely lack; still, the fact is the best jockey in the world can'...

After these riots, gun sales will go through the roof and no one will ever take Beto seriously.

It's about the dog. I have enough experience with single, childless women in her age range to know this. That dog occupies a place in her mind that normally is filled by a child. If a stranger in a park offers her child a treat, in this crazy day and age, she gets upset. Don't fuck with her dog or e...

The pandemic has been a little rough on people. Nerves are frayed. It must really suck to live in that expensive shithole with a subway system coated in a thick layer of coronavirus. She escapes her tiny abode and lets the dog run around for a few minutes. Hey, how about keep your pie hole shut and...

There's 10 million people in the county, more in the metro area. Several hundred thousand infections is still less than 10% of the county. The lockdown has worked. Whether it's worth the cost involves a value judgment about tradeoffs, but if this thing is as transmissible as it seems then I am pret...

The Donald and Michigan's governor were made for each other. I used that as an example of a tyrant with no medical training telling doctors how to do their jobs. I did not expect anyone to act as if President OrangeManBad had nominated hydroxychloroquine to the Supreme Court. So, that governor sure...

And now for some not so random observations. I saw fewer cars on the road during my normal commute today. Are people suddenly taking this lock down seriously? No. They are scared shitless of going broke if they burn a little cheap gasoline. We allowed our incompetent political class to crater our ec...

Also, though you've probably mentioned it elsewhere, what is Twba? Not related to TMBG I presume?

It started as just a little inside joke. It stands for the world's biggest asshole.

Or you could, you know, grow a pair and fix the damn thing yourself. :P That is a slippery slope. It starts with one Youtube video showing how to repair a common household appliance. Before you know it, you're strung out on videos showing how to tune a Lamborghini V12 with six Weber carbs. Or a 17 ...

I've been growing my hair out for over a year, so am reading all of the people worried about their haircuts with some amusement. Gonna have a lot of people coming out of the stay-at-home looking like Japanese high school baseball players. ;) It's bothering me because I wear a CPAP harness at night ...

Fully autonomous cars will still be only ten years away.

We were at the park playing with the boys today and an NHS nurse walking her dog yelled at us (and presumably others) to go home. This really pissed me off because as far as I saw everyone was engaging in proper social distancing, there were no play dates or people that were not in a family unit ha...

So I don't know if my mail carrier is quarantined, if the USPS is in a slowdown or on strike or something (you'd think that would be big news even with the virus coverage), or what, but we have not gotten any mail in the last 3 days. Which is rather odd, even if it would just be junk mail. Perhaps ...

I'd be at the gym or yoga every day if they were open.

Just don't go paddle boarding.

great idea putting all those young and healthy fuckers out of work. All he really needed to do is tell the oldsters to stay the fuck home, because everyone else is fucking walking all over the fucking place spreading their germs while the economy crashes and burns. This is the biggest shit show I h...
