Meet our new baby, Beatrice! She's already made herself at home. She's totally unbothered by the other cats, and mostly they're just curious about her. Gladys and Millie are doing their usual boycott to register their objection, which has been duly noted. Management has decided to wait it out.

I saw this comment on an Instagram post where Gwen Stefani was talking about doing a "prayer challenge" for Lent, and it really sums up how I've been feeling for the last 10 years. #mood

My latest fake book marketing scammer review covers the latest scam fad: the "Paid/Not Paid Review Scam," in which the scammer tries to charge you for book reviews but insists that they're not charging for book reviews...? Read it here: casualauthor.substack.com/p/sunni-book...

My new article talks about regular people who didn't know a TV show was being shot around them and acted accordingly, like Hazel Frederick (pictured), the "scowling woman" in the intro to the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Read it here: rerunrewind.substack.com/p/the-best-a...

Earlier today, the P key on my keyboard stopped working, and I immediately tried to google, "How to fix a broken laptop key." Read that again.

I'm really proud of my Howard Cosell-inspired review. It's all true. I highly recommend this product.

Bill Murray's 8 Siblings: All About His Brothers and Sisters Bill Murray has five brothers, including Edward III, Brian, Andy, John and Joel, and three sisters, Nancy, Peggy and Laura. Here's everything to know about Bill Murray's siblings.

TIL the famous Murray family (Bill Murray et al.) is the exact opposite of my family: 5 boys; 3 girls, but not in opposite order. I guess the Murrays weren't making more people because they wanted some of a different gender. πŸ™ƒ
(icymi I'm the oldest of 8: 5 girls; 3 boys.)

Rob Reiner And Wife Found Dead In LA Home – Update Two unnamed people were found in the Brentwood home belonging to prolific actor-director Rob Reiner.

I'm incredibly shocked and sad to hear that Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle Singer, were murdered in their home earlier today. Rob was a legend of television and film who shaped what Americans watched for about 50 years. We have lost a great talent. #RobReiner

On this day in 1970, Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence (that request came from his wife), and the rest is history. #theoddcouple #oddcoupleday

Does Size Really Matter? (in AI Prompts) Why "shorter prompts are better" isn't the full story. (I bet you thought I meant something else, you dirty bird.)

Size matters not for AI prompts. Here's why.

You don't have to join in. I didn't, but you'll never see me shitting on people who did, because shitting on people who do shit in a shit hole run by a shit head who makes videos where he literally shits on people is a shitty thing to do. So shit-can it and cut the shit.

For a lot of us, our only weapon is our presence, so people gather, march, chant, hold signs, take selfies, and say, "This is bullshit," because that is what people do when their government is taken over by wanna-be Nazis.

Second "No Kings Day" protests the largest single-day political protest ever*, with 5.0-6.5 million participants Here are the initial results from our crowdsourced crowd-counting estimates

Over 5 million people in 2,700 locations across the country just pulled off the biggest one-day protest in US history (source: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...). That's a big fucking deal! Who the hell cares if they just did it for the photo op?

The fact that today, any schlub with an iPhone can take a selfie and share it with the entire world in an instant doesn't make our protests less effective. If anything, it makes them MORE effective.

These photos were taken by a marcher named Dr. Darrell Crain, Jr., rheumatologistβ€”not professional photographer or journalist (source: www.bbc.com/news/magazin...), and there are many more out there.

The people who marched on Washington in 1963 didn't take selfies...because smartphones weren't invented yet. Photography was an expensive hobby back then, but those who could afford cameras definitely took snapshots.

I'm no better than you or themβ€”in fact, I'm probably worse than all of youβ€”but I won't sit silently while you criticize my fellow Americans for exercising their first amendment right to peaceably assemble the way their parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and so on did.

Spare me the moral superiority. You're not better than someone who goes to a rally and takes a selfie just because you prefer to sit at home and complain on social media.

Plotting a revolution? Forming a well-regulated militia? Storming the capitol? (I seem to recall some people did that, and it was widely regarded as a bad move.)
