You can have coffee and pastry as the world economy collapses, or you can be hungry and lethargic as the world economy collapses. I think the choice is clear.
I am told that people who are born deaf and later have hearing aids implanted are sometimes surprised to find out that the sun does not, in fact, make noise.
Reminds me of the old joke:
Q. What's the most common sex fantasy of teenage males?

@gelliottmorris.com should do this question in his next SIN poll.
In fairness to Robert McNamara, he didn't have the advantage his successors had of learning from the mistakes of Robert McNamara.
Savage, but not unearned.
Thank God Kristi Noem is gone, now we only have to suffer the consequences of all the other Kristi Noems, who fill every single position in the Trump cabinet and administration.
Who is Ham Sticker, and what injustice has this administration wrought upon him and his family?
Jesus Christ.
I'm reading this like one of those old anti-piracy PSAs: "You wouldn't CASTRATE a GOAT."
This administration is all in on Defund the Police. Just not here, apparently.
And for White Sox pennant wins.
"Please note that the City does perform a monthly siren test to ensure all sirens are functioning. The entire system is tested for 30 seconds at 10:00am on the first Tuesday of every month."
Gotta go with the Trans Am. Sure, the 'Vette has more power, but 1977 was approaching the low point in Corvette history, while '77 was arguably a high point in the Firebird's.
Pulled pork. Put a pork shoulder in a slow cooker and add a can of root beer. Cook on low all day. At dinnertime, drain the liquid, shred the pork with a fork, mix in BBQ sauce, and serve on a bun. Leftovers freeze well, too.
Francois Truffaut said there's no such thing as a truly anti-war film, and I agree. Depicting war on the big screen will inevitably make it seem thrilling and exciting. Horror makes you imagine it turned against your enemies. Meaninglessness makes you imagine how you could make it meaningful.
My friend summarizes describes my own thoughts well.
American cheese needs to be thought of as less of a standalone food and more of an industrial precursor, like bauxite is to aluminum. No other food provides the optimum combination of mildness and low melting point for cheese-based applications like grilled cheese, nacho cheese, etc.
Yeah, big slam on Riefenstahl by comparing her work to this slop.
My daughter begged to watch it and I acquiesced, prepared for the worst. I was pleasantly surprised how clever and well-written it was. Good for them!
(No accounting for kids' tastes, though--her new favorite show is the terrible '80s sitcom Small Wonder.)
The sea otters try to look casual.
Needs music.
"Robot, experience this tragic irony for me!"
I am pretty sure 99% of questions in the format "why is/are the US/Americans like this" can be answered by one or more of Capitalism, Racism or Cars.
That was my second, thought, too.
My first thought was, "Oh, it's definitely Trump," because that wouldn't be the 10th craziest thing he's done this calendar year.
Update: C-SPAN thinks it was not him.https://x.com/cspan/status/2025679408132989253
I definitely heard "I-TAL-IA!" on the Olympic broadcasts, to the same rhythm as"U-S-A!."
"Calling in to C-SPAN to complain about things" should be considered a symptom of senile dementia, BTW.
