I'm so jelly.

I'd pick one up, but I've got no where to put it. Cleaning out the garage is on the list this year. So maybe.

Goddamnit. That bastard still owes me twenty bucks!

My son rarely posts links but just posted this link on Twitter. I don't know enough to understand, let alone analyse it so I thought I'd let you big brain types (I'm looking at you, Warren!) tell me what to think. zkPorter: a breakthrough in L2 scaling I didn't get all of that, but I got enough to ...

Watched Mulholland Falls, and in looking up the *real* star of the movie, discovered that that curvaceous beauty is for sale, alas at $99k a little too rich for my blood. Wanna go halvesies? Splendid idea- I'll have to keep in in SoCal though, I mean we couldn't risk it getting damaged by tornados ...

This is why we can't have nice things.

It's thst trees planted in memory of loved ones, i'm presuming? I don't know whether it was connected with memorializing the dead, but when I was young and Israel was still a new Jewish state, paying to plant trees "in the desert" was a thing routinely done among American Jews and as a result Ameri...

I don't know what to say to that, JadaPainShem.

The Shem does not know the meaning of pain.

He feels it. He just doesn't know what it means.

This. Celebrating martyrs often turns into revenge. Hence the Good Friday tradition of pogroms.

Kids today have no respect for tradition.

You guys. Liddy was a hoot. Saw him debate Timothy Leary. They both lost

On hearing of his passing the first thing I thought of wasn't Wattergate, it wasn't "head shot", it was Robert Conrad who played him in the TV movie version of his autobiography Will.

People talk about JFK's press conferences as though they were the Federalist Papers, but I Like Ike.

He refused to give the show credit for the kiss shared between Terry Farrell and Susannah Thompson in "Joined," because it only scratched the surface and he believed they could've tried harder to explore the topic than they did.

Nor did anyone ask him why he read from prepared talking points during answers to three questions on foreign policy. No recent president has felt the need to do that.
