I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.
LARRY DAVID [leaning, smiling]: You, uh...you kinda cheated.
BILBO BAGGINS: What?
LARRY: The riddle game..."What have I got in my pocket?"...It's not really a riddle.
BILBO: Uh-huh. Gollum agreeing to answer doesn't mean anything to you?
LARRY: He's not all there. Mentally, he's not all there.
@zitron.bsky.social the the Tesla compensation vote coming to a close and there being talks of a stock drop, do you have an article explaining how the stock is so high to begin with? Like, when will it be treated like a normal auto company?
In the golden age of blogging, we would have awoken to a post on Buzzfeed where a 23 year old made and ate the Google glue pizza in the kitchen they share with three roommates in East Williamsburg. I don't know if we're better off for having lost that. Certainly less entertained.
Today I am going to a wedding in Temecula.
A few weeks ago, I told the bride and groom, "Meet me in Temecula."
They aren't online and didn't get it. Then they asked me to explain what I was talking about, and I spent 35 seconds explaining it.
One of the worst days of my life
@davidjroth.bsky.social if Biden is going on Stern, that means there’s a non-0% chance he’ll be asking Francesa if Giambi’s a good option for Secretary of Labor, right?
After the day in court, Trump headed to Harlem to do some campaigning. Per NYT reporter Michael Gold, as the pack of journalists, campaign staffers, and NYPD stood waiting for Trump, a woman passed by and shouted, "What are all these unseasoned french fries doing in my neighborhood??"
I hate the fact that the Butt Hutt Smokehouse exits. I hate the fact that this art for the Butt Hutt Smokehouse also exists. I think everyone responsible for the Butt Hutt Smokehouse and the Butt Hutt Smokehouse artwork should be thrown in jail. Forever.
This is the true story of seven strangers picked to live in a house, collect money from Rudy Giuliani, and have their lives taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real.
I was just watching the Elton John episode of THE MUPPET SHOW and at one point Sam the Eagle asks "If he's such an important musician then why does he dress like a stolen car" which I have to admit is a pretty sick burn
If you didn't live through the 1970s, a lot of it seems like it wasn't real, but I assure you, it was. From the time when McDonalds had ashtrays on every table, I bring you Uncle O'Grimacey.
Enjoy St. Patrick's Day with a Shamrock Shake.
a shame there will never be a Gen X president because it woulda been funny to see Beto end with "the skate of our union is strong" and then do an ollie over the justices and ride out
@davidjroth.bsky.social just listened to D&JAM, the comeback. Arctic Trauma the flavor should be the name of the new True Detective. Then thought of Rust and Mary from S1 being dropped, unchanged, into MurderSheBaked or GarbageStoreMysteries and couldn’t stop laughing in grocery store
