"Oh absolutely— that tiny, flimsy cup of neon-red sugar water is iconic. It’s always too sweet, it stains everything, and it’s handed out like it’s a treat, even though no one really wants it. That drink is the unofficial mascot of awkward community events. It’s like the physical manifestation of trying to be festive but running on a shoestring." I was conversing with ChatGPT about “refreshments”.

just this morning I got pushed a reel by a comedian who said "It's a good thing we killed Osama Bin Laden when we did because today he'd be secretary of transportation if he was still alive"

nobody demanded anything. Just pointing out that some people think that serving in the military bestows some special status on somebody that we're supposed to care. Go back to protecting your pedophile overlords.

I use AI to make funny videos of myself and a friend reliving every inside joke we gathered over 40 years of friendship. I've also used it to interpret and critique some corporate speak that comes our way. It rightly calls it out for bull**** and not really saying anything. It picks up on my quirks and tells me what I want to hear, and how I want to hear it. It's sarcastic. The wit sometimes is better than you'd see on a late night talk show. I'm entertained and terrified.

He got about halfway

Maybe it was game 1 then. it did not air in Detroit on NBC. Not all affiliates ran it. The first times it ran in Detroit was on channel 20 I believe.

I should clarify, Easley was a good trade, but then I believe he got a big contract after which probably hurt the club somewhat. He was a fine player but not deserving of the big deal.

Damian Easley for Greg Gohr was a good move.

I think any agent that can't do that should be fired immediately.

No, that was Joe Klein. For 32 years we had Jim, Bill, Joe, Jerry, Joe. I was listening to Gibson on the radio, he was being interviewed on WDFN, when the trade was announced. He hung up when they told him and retired a week later. He was pissed.

NASA, according to it's acting leader, says they are opening up the contract for the lunar lander to other companies because SpaceX is so far behind. I'm not sure what that means. They're nervous about China getting there first. I suspect if we do go back that China will get there first. Artemis III is years away in my very amateur opinion.

what's troubling is... the people that run the GOP today simply don't care. They don't care if people suffer, if they die. Doesn't matter if they are old, young.... all that matters to republicans today is the grift and the social media "own".

The Costner film Thirteen Days about the Cuban Missile Crisis is one of the best historical movies ever made. His performance is sketchy, he drifts in and out of his crappy Boston accent, but the movie itself is fairly accurate. Like most movies of real life events they have to condense who said what and all of that to make it presentable. But the general gist of it is spot on.

what made me mad about the Fryman situation was they moved him because they didn't have money, supposedly. Then a year later they get Dean Palmer for more money.

That was also the same night that a new show on NBC debuted, hosted by George Carlin, called NBC's Saturday Night. Perhaps you've heard of it?

When it was all said and done the Tigers ended up trading Travis Fryman and Cecil Fielder for Matt Drews.

Maybe he was with the defense secretary

Eugenio had a beef. Saw the ump cam where he told him “that was the same ****ing pitch you called a ball”

I've said this before here but it's like the red hats get off on the homeless. When I come back from vacation and I have cousins asking where we went, if it was a big city, like San Diego, their first question "Was there a lot of homeless people there?" The first time we went my fox news watching MIL said to us, "Just be careful" and when we asked why she said "Well it's close to the border". Chas, you are exactly right.

Truman "gutted the entire white house" because it was literally falling apart and would have collapsed had they not done that. He spent most of his "second" term of his presidency living elsewhere Nixon put his bowling alley in place of where LBJ/JFK's pool was.
