Gordi!
You and I never really spoke much or at all before you ventured off into real life but many of us here are very proud of you. I won’t tell you if you should or how to fight back, just be sure to know that we here appreciate you doing what probably most of us, including myself, would have never done in the first place.

The amount of voluntary masking still going on in stores… I mean, it’s only been a few days, I’m not sure it’s fair to call it Stockholm, but fer chrissake.
Maybe they’re all terminally ill and protecting themselves. That’s a happy thought.
I remember it got appalling reviews on initial release. Have subsequent updates made it worth playing? I’ve never looked into it because of the negative initial press.
They’ve been patching it quite a bit. From my understanding it’s now a solid game, even if some of the grandiose promises never came to be. I give the devs credit for continuing to patch and update the game to get it closer to what they wanted on release.
Random post-work thoughts again….as far as looking at jobs that may or may not fit the locations I hope to move towards…..something that has been on my radar before, but haven’t looked at as much since I left active duty…railroad work. Turns out there are apparently quite a few conductor -> engineer openings are all the private rail companies right now. Granted the initial salary would be a bit of a step down…potentially could climb back to parity pretty quickly with overtime, etc. (definitely after promotion)…Looking pretty appealing when I think about something I can do where I am right now AND something I could probably transfer into if moving cross-country.

And the Artie Lange stint on Compound Media was pretty good, except for the fucking Lenny Dykstra story Artie would tell EVERY GOD DAMN EPISODE it felt like.
There’s some good coming out of Compound, but Ant… Ant is not great, rudderless. As much as I hate Opie, Ant needed to be the rear commander (HEYOOOOOO) or at the very least needs a straight man. Opie is a wet turd of an entertainer, but he provided structure, and when he wasn’t obsessed with piloting the ship, and let the funny men do their thing, the show was golden.
You know who I miss? Dennis Miller. He ended his podcast and went AWOL.
Carolla’s got a show nearly every day….not even counting his ones with Dr Drew or Mark Geragos.

I get some shows in – he seems much happier, post-divorce. Unsurprisingly.
The best explanation – they did it on purpose as a protest of what’s going on domestically…

Colin Firth is so goddamn likeable. And whoever played Eggsy was a believable fish out of water, but charming, replacement.
So far I don’t know who to root for except all of these characters I hate on the principle that this movie is trading on the title and delivers none of the terrific performances, not to mention the solid based storyline of the original film.

President Joe Biden tweeted on Friday night that he hoped war could be averted between Russia and Ukraine. ‘We’re calling out Russia’s plans. Not because we want a conflict, but because we are doing everything in our power to remove any reason Russia may give to justify invading Ukraine.’

A brutal take down of Howard Stern,
https://www.city-journal.org/on-the-continued-decline-of-howard-stern
I would love to know what his numbers are.
I guess there is a market for a morning version of Maddow or Lemon but it’s got to be down from his heyday.
Bruce Bawer was a pretty good writer. I have the “While Europe Slept” book – some interesting insights from a gay man on muslim immigration to Europe. He’d enjoy Carolla I think.

Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel; and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ’em! “Gimme five bees for a quarter”, you’d say…

I never noticed the monkey is wearing a Red Sox jersey. That’s random, for an English band.

It’s funny ’cause it’s true.
And, to tie in with your firet comment, Miller used to use “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” as the theme music to his old HBO show.
ISTR that Roland Orzabal was “difficult” but he wrote some great songs.
Now I have words to put to Jim’s reference in this scene.
This scene ffs
Heh, ‘gobbling the DJ to “Too Shy”‘ is just at great turn of phrase.
The jilted Jim bit is funny, but the denouement is the best bit.
