Yesssss Wisconsin Curse, repeat thyself!

Movie I've seen more than six times:

Rand Paul releasing Dr. Anthony Fauci's diaries is the most Regina George thing to come out of a Congress whose maturity in conflict is recently more on the level of Eric Cartman.

I don't understand the superfans who instantly trash a new offering from their fandom. It's ok to not like it. But this trend of campaigning to eradicate series, movies, books you don't deem sufficient is decimating genres some of us love without requiring compliance with our every ideal from it.

My most recent step in trying to manage my genetic disease: a green smoothie for breakfast comprised of a banana, spinach, avocado, ginger, lemon juice, chia, oat milk, and green powder. It's not terrible!

I cannot ever, ever watch this scene without Williams' music literally making me cry by the end. And Neill's face. ALL throughout. Iconic.

Makin cabbage fritters in huge quantities for quick lunches for the next week or more (if I freeze them). Basically, make latkes but use cabbage instead of potatoes, and you don't even have to squeeze the cabbage 🤩

Spouse and I are making chicken with Italian seasonings for dinner. I assigned him the task of crushing and rough-chopping the garlic after I managed to stab myself with - not the knife - but the garlic clove itself. SPOUSE: Can I just crush them? Or do I have to also chop them? ME: Also chop.

Two weeks until #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds season 4 hits?! I'm way late in starting a recap rewatch of 1-3 😬

The "pin/pen" glide in American dialects has always been a huge source of misunderstanding for me, even starting in college, though definitely after I moved to the south. I always trip up and hear the opposite one intended.

ST:TNG S4E9 - Picard and Wesley's shuttle crashes on a desert planet en route to Starfleet Academy. They take shelter in a cave where they find Robert Downey Jr. building an iron suit. Picard says, "Oh, I envy you, Wesley Crusher. You're just at the beginning of the Avengers."

Collective noun suggestions?

Here's a big reason I think Trump is against mail-in votes that I haven't heard discussed much in the news I'm able to access from overseas: access to TIME. As an American voting from abroad, I HAVE to mail in my ballot. And I have more time to NOT fall for all the little tricks.

You know what? Go ahead, keep putting Trump crap everywhere. The more tacky fascist geegaws they spread around, the more of us will be able to participate in the destruction of his name and symbols. The national holiday will be a week long in all future years.

Mel Brooks is 100 today. Drop a gif of your favorite of his films to celebrate.

Listening to Bessent talk about the strength of the dollar -- from here in Europe, where currency exchange app ads start with "Being paid in US dollars?" as a problem that we need to solve with the least abysmal rates we can find -- would be laughable if it wasn't so devastating.
