This was written two years ago. Pretty fucking prescient. I feel like I'm living in a science fiction novel. https://bylinetimes.com/2022/11/07/musks-twitter-buy-makes-no-sense-unless-its-part-of-something-bigger/

@br00t4c well, aren't we all?

This story about The Onion buying Infowars is so hilarious that first I thought it was just another The Onion story. It appears to be real and it is glorious. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/onion-wins-alex-jones-infowars-bankruptcy-auction-rcna179936

I'd thank my father for his service on this veterans day, but he was 4-f. Seriously. He tried to enlist on Pearl Harbor day- my mom was at home with my newborn sister praying that he wouldn't get accepted by any branch- and he didn't. He had a messed up ear from swimming competitively, a wife and kid, was a public school teacher, and they told him he could better serve his country at home, He volunteered at the ship yards in Newark, IIRC. If he'd gone it's likely I wouldn't be typing this now. Happy Veterans Day and thanks to those who served, and those who kept the home fires burning.

@WarnerCrocker 'tis the way of things.

As we know polls are fairly meaningless in this day and age , so, what if Harris wins in a landslide? How will you celebrate??

I'm trying to get high on some hopium here.

There is a cat on my lap so I’m trapped possibly for the rest of the day.

I've walked my 11,000 steps for the day, so basically I can sit here on this chair until...say...January, right?

She has got to win.

My New Yorker daughter was quite annoyed that Beyoncé did not perform at the Harris rally. My New Yorker daughter's musical tastes consist of basically hardcore punk and Beyoncé. An interesting combo, to be sure- but then, she's an interesting human. I miss her. Haven't seen her since late August which seems like far too long.

Good morning, fine people. Another gorgeous fall day out there. I object to the fact that it is no longer summer, but I will soldier on.

More pictures from the Sandwich MA boardwalk last night.

Dog peed on a Trump sign again. I swear I didn't encourage him. I am thinking of renting him out...so if anyone has any annoying neighbors ...

@ATLeagle oh dear.

@ATLeagle I’m sorry. I’m sure your daughter thanks you for your service.

So what I’m hearing from you is that it’s a pretty normal debate? No drama?

I think WW3 may have just started.

Ok, I just realized we have a picture of what we saw today. We normally would not be able to see the land seen here as it is 15 miles away and the horizon is at 3 miles. And yet, we saw it for the first time ever from this point. We are baffled.

The word "shrubbery" will never not make me laugh. Thank you, Monty Python.

"he was fired by 81 million people and is having trouble processing that" is one of my favorite lines of the night.
