Are you playing the fake scrabble? Because that thing is accepting some very made up words

Part of me wants to blame all of this on Mike Judge.

Trump Endorses Jake Paul (Who Isn’t Running for Office)

Sometimes I think this is all Mike Judge’s fault.

None of this would have happened if you’d just gone to work today

I packed up the parkas this morning. So you know, it’s ally fault.

But I’m going to buy a power shovel as soon as they are back in stock and once I do it will never snow again.

I’m afraid I caused this when I optimistically put the winter parkas and boots back in the basement this morning.

i understand the reasoning behind it but the effort to memory hole the pandemic, and let the anniversary of it slip by every year without any fanfare, feels almost offensive to the amount of insane shit we continue to live through that was a direct result of march 2020

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

GRIM. I have been freelancing for more than 25 years and it’s been nice but the writing is on the wall.

Excellent episode. The new Mayor needs to get fully on board with this.

LISTEN: Reviving the Missing Link in Queens

Still dreaming of going birding in Forest Park, seeing a movie at indie theaters in Forest Hills or Kew Gardens, maybe even hitting a Mets game, without using my car.

Also: F Andrew Cuomo.

TLDR: great breakdown of the @queenslink today on FAQNYC:

I’m mad that I lost my family but being a baseball orphan is no fun so I’ll just learn to love my new family.

It’s not about wins for me (I know, I’m the worst), it’s about the story so I hope we have a fun story this year.

If you find scrabble frustrating try the @nytimes.com Crossplay, where you can score points with non-words like TOIT and INCASE

No one sells ladies petite sizes anymore so your kind of stuck in oversized mode if you’re under 5’4 no matter what

Trump’s plan to have tech companies pay for electricity from data center use… was already happening.

I would much prefer a simple letter (per the US Constitution), with complete citations.
