Stuff

Apple pie does SO count as my daily recommended serving of fruit. Also it’s totally PERFECT for breakfast and I need some now, now, NOW. Dammit!

Cacimbo
[ kuh-sim-boh ]
     noun
a heavy mist or drizzle that occurs in the Congo Basin, located in Central Africa, often accompanied by onshore winds.

Also…seems to be the weather pattern we’re stuck in here in Valhalla by the Sea. This blows. It means that I haven’t taken morning walkies in days. I’m enough of a fall risk—I don’t need to make matters even more dicey by attempting to climb up and down rain drenched steps and streets.

I have a confession—I’ve never watched The Rachel Maddow Show. I KNOW—how can I call myself a proper liberal when I’ve never seen her broadcast?! This is my personal shame. I blame the fact that I don’t watch teevee (‘cept for sci fi/fantasy shows with Jen and Oni). WHY don’t I watch teevee? //shrugs// 

  • I can’t deal with all the commercials. 
  • It costs money now—didn’t teevee used to be free? 
  • Cake and I constantly fight about which shows to watch. He likes game shows and I just wanna watch cartoons. We're at odds.

In any case, though I’ve never seen the show, I understand she’s brilliant. I just saw the Rolling Stone headline about her upcoming podcast (whatever a podcast is. A show about peapods? moving/storage containers? is this like a corn husk but for news?).

Nazis, Seditionists, and Gay Vampire Porn: Rachel Maddow Reveals Her New Podcast ‘Ultra’
Gay Vampire Porn? Tell me more!

George Sylvester Viereck. He’s the reason that we have the Foreign Agents Registration Act. He’s the guy who gave us Mike Flynn’s guilty pleas. The requirement to register officially as an agent of a foreign power derives from him and from this scandal.

This is not in the podcast — much to my chagrin — but he is also credited with the first gay vampire porn.

Georgie boy was a German-American pro-Nazi propagandist and is, clearly, one of Russian propagandist Tucker Carlson’s heroes. Gotta say, gay vampire porn sounds a lot more fun and interesting than Tuck’s masturbatory testicle tanning.

Why having gun wielding rent-a-cops in schools is really not the answer:
A security guard in Oxford Community Schools accidentally discharged his weapon in a bathroom on Monday, district officials said. The guard was using the single-stall staff restroom at Oxford Middle School, near the field house, when he placed his weapon on a door hook nearby, the district said in a statement.

“While he was retrieving his weapon from the hook, it caught on the lower portion of the hook and accidentally discharged into the cement ceiling,” according to the release.

How incredibly embarrassing especially since the guard is a retired police officer. He should totally know how to safely handle a gun but, apparently, no.

Here’s a recent shot from the James Webb Space Telescope’s Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) of Neptune with its rings.

Yur welcome.
