I was really excited to share this image of a particularly superb owl, given that today is #superbowl Sunday, but unfortunately, it soared away with its bedtime snack before I could get the photo…

    …the truths of which I assume to be self-evident…but…somewhere made the claim green day opted not to make a “statement”…but…whether or not the guy said something they muted the mic feed for or whether it picked up a claim that orange people can be racist when he said it loud enough off-mike…like…they played what “good riddance” (time of your life)…then segued from holiday to boulevard of broken dreams & into american idiot…what’s that…I mean…if a bunch of words you don’t speak might be mean about you

    …what would give you the idea that a bunch of words in one you do that you just don’t listen to couldn’t?

    This woman is in charge of the US Agency for Global Media, which is supposed to serve and represent the best American values

    …man…I just can’t help some days thinking that if the baseline average for how good people were at it was even just a little higher…the shit we wouldn’t have to put up with would be the stuff of exponential returns…I mean

    It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

    …I mean…they have a certain consistency, I guess

    lol

    …but…let’s see if this embeds or if I have to find some other way to include it

    SpaceX shifts focus from something that it will never do on Mars to something it will never do on the Moon.

    …the guy who was going to put boots on mars in half the span he now says he can be a moon-based bond villain there already was a movie about in only twice that now it’s about that far past his target date he could have done a significantly scaled back thing…because the thing that was less than a half dozen years away a decade ago would take another two decades to do now he’s had ten years to be going about it

    …which is why when…if(?)…spaceX goes public…if it tanked on day 1 because it got shorted out of existence & his whole shit unravelled right around when europe sent for him over all the illegal shite…which that statement would make plausible in a sane world that got reminded of the false claims needed to be priced in as true for the bonkers numbers attached to enterprises attached to that guy…that would be at least in the running for maybe the funniest thing ever?
