Surprise! April thundersnow!

(It was sunny and ~50 degrees 15 minutes earlier. It is again sunny and ~50 degrees, a couple hours later.)

I thought it would be fun to create the most obnoxious "word find" ever. There are 29 valid American English words in this - GOOD LUCK!

Oh my God, Amazon/IMDBtv, make it stop!

There's a scene in The Aristocrats where Sarah Silverman is telling the joke first-person, and ends with deadpan "Joe Franklin raped me."

The stream then went *IMMEDIATELY* to commercial - an ad for a *DRAMA/COMEDY ABOUT UNWANTED PREGNANCY*

O-M-G.

Somehow, I had never watched the
Penn Jillette movie about "the joke" - The Aristrocrats.

Started it. First commercial break immediately after the "variety of tellings" I get an ad for the KIDS MOVIE Rio 2, which ends with parrot saying "I'll be pooping on your party!"🤣

(Okay, partly on me, partly on a bunch of other people.)

Man, @wilw posting a new Twitter thread, mentioning he's still on FB and IG, but forgetting he's one of the CoSo OGs!

And I just spent about 10 hours over the last two days on a wild goose chase at work. :-/

I don't need the visuals. I don't need the voiceover. I don't even need the show itself.

The John Williams music alone has me covered in goosebumps and my eyes watering.

(As I have now hit play on this for about the dozenth time.)

I will never tire of John Williams' music. Dude is just a master at auditory emotional manipulation.

John Williams is a gawt damn genius.

In positive news, all of our Ukraine employees are safe. Some relocated out of the country prior to the invasion, others are in in country, but in parts of Ukraine not currently under threat.

(All are being fully paid but not expected to work for the time being, and the relocations were company-paid.)

Company all-hands call, CEO just mentioned "unprecedented events" - AND I'M NOT SURE WHICH WORLD EVENT HE'S TALKING ABOUT

Idaho's house is making it a felony punishable by a life sentence to provide affirming care to trans teens.

Same punishment for *helping leave the state to receive gender affirming care*.

If this bill becomes enforceable law, I would face life imprisonment for driving my kid through Idaho.

Speaking of getting off Russian oil...
