attempting to gain a new generation of fans, george thorogood has changed the chorus to "one gluten free bourbon, one surfside, one probiotic for gut health, and one dsa membership please"

I knew I was old when my targeted ads started recommending colonoscopies but now I just moved up to “you may be eligible for compensation if you had a colonoscopy” targeted age bracket

The hotdogs at Irving plaza are good tbh. I didn’t get to eat before the show. It I’m good now actually.

I am excited to see Man or Astroman? and Rocket from the Crypt tonight.

everyone complains that paywalls prevent them from reading a good story but I thank paywalls when they prevent me from reading a terrible story

Going to camp outside the Barnes and Noble that used to be a Modell’s just in case they get any Wildcard Winner merch in

interesting macos quirk (bug??) I ran in to. folders with names containing a . don't display a tag color in finder. the color displays next to name but not the folder itself.

Disappointed that the America gov chat bot cannot find any Updog regulations

someone saying “you know how on Wheel of Fortune…” is never about to tell you something interesting

given the option I will always choose the most homer simpsony looking frosted donut every time

the Jets looked like a professional football team yesterday, for the first time in forever. normally, Woody Johnson would follow that up with something stupid, like calling Ed Sheeran about Macklemore. could the "same old jets" curse actually be broken? time will tell

I did a somewhat deep dive into the recent OpenAI and Anthropic "hacks" for an upcoming interview. IMO, the AI companies are better off running with the "rogue AI" story because the real story is actually pretty embarrassing. Like making your Wi-Fi password "wifi" embarrassing. 🧵

25 years ago, firefighter Richie Iannucci [pictured, right] from Queens disappeared, never to be spoken about again. Presumably lost his life in the Towers. Tragic.

my understanding of mathematics was fundamentally changed by a calculator when I learned that numbers can also be words. source: 5318008

this column describes how obviously inconsistent kean's campaign messaging is. it captures the feelings that I had when I first saw his ads about saving health care. there is no honest good record to run on, it's disingenuous at best.

I was 18 when the first harry potter book came out. never read a page or saw a film. I've always been suspicious of anyone that got into the series as an adult especially the fucking dorks that would wear wizard robes and get mad that kids were at barnes and noble. I've never been proven wrong

the final dialect question separates new jersey from queens new york. do you say gabbagool or gabba gabba hey

someone told me that I am a garbage human being and I began to feel remorse for my actions. Then I remembered that person also said that Dolly Party and Fauci should be in jail and I realized which one of us is actually the garbage human being

Now that Howard 101 is gone I have a big decision to make. Preset #2 has been 101 on each Sirius radio I've had for 20 years. Road Dog Trucking, you are getting promoted

I would love to see the ump check the position players glove after he gives up 9 home runs in an inning

it will be confusing to sail the seven seas when they are all renamed America

I posted my memory of the great Atlantic and pacific tea company just before Trump said he wants to change the name of the oceans. I hope I didn’t cause this

what if an entire baseball team all selected the national anthem as their walk up song? I think the defense would tire out from facing the flag so much

tom kean running ads about how he brought down drug prices with a tiny footnote indicating it's referring to HR1 ("one big beautiful bill"). running on the "good" part of that bill means he's gotta own everything in it that he voted for. he should be pressed about it every day.

good morning from Karen

I’ve never eaten a meal and thought “the celery made this dish great”

any aviation buffs familiar with C-FBKB from kenn borek air? it's been flying a pattern over NJ all morning. not uncommon to see planes doing aerial surveys but this sticks out because it is normally based in alaska. I wonder what the specialized need or equipment is.
