that guy looks exactly like what I would imagine someone working in a train museum would look like

What color do you think it is?

“Mr. President - how do you feel?”

“Mack and Jack are jacked, jack.”

I guess “trump helicopter ride challenge” was too aggressive or something.

Bibi as well

“Would” is now officially my least favorite word and it will be until election day. Libs <3 using it for a theoretical Trump presidency happening right now. What fucking garbage.

There’s probably a word libs could start using that - cough - would annoy me more but I can’t think of it right now.

Google translate says “mast nut”.

Oh, fuck - I remember that too. A friend’s friend must have had that. I have a few vague memories of it. Maybe I played it or saw it about three times. I must have said something like “This is really, really weird,” at the time.

I don’t know the cause of the crash but the following makes me laugh. I wonder what it is in Persian.

Jesus nut

Jesus nut is a slang term for the main rotor retaining nut or mast nut, which holds the main rotor to the mast of some helicopters. The related slang term Jesus pin refers to the lock pin used to secure the retaining nut. More generally, Jesus nut (or Jesus pin) has been used to refer to any component that is a single point of failure which results in catastrophic consequences, and the only thing left to do is, metaphorically speaking, pray to Jesus, hence the name.

Sometimes I have to use Adblock to hide the “play” button at chess.com because I play too much chess so I get tired out, I get tilted - lose a whole bunch of games, and then I put myself in a bad mood.

They Live, which as it turns out, was the first film broadcast with this “Color Television” we now know to be a programmed hallucination, the bastards have no shame.

That could have been a better movie.

That must be true numerous times in the multiverse.

I didn’t look at the link and read the entire sentence. Then I was disappointed the link didn’t go to the vid of an ASMR voice whispering: “Praise Baphomet.” Drat.

A Bluesky lib posted that and said that Senator Whitehouse “ought to” do something. I said the dems are worse than useless and will do nothing on this. The lib replied with…

What is it you hope to accomplish here?

And then he blocked me. Haha.

I would drink this

intrusive thought: dipping cheezits in this

I don’t want to start a struggle session but as nice as physical media is - I don’t miss records. They get warped or they get scratched. In some alternate universe if a record was somehow the same high fidelity but the size and weight of a cassette - I might actually buy some. I would have some. But I don’t know how the windows would work on the cover of Physical Graffitti. Holograms I guess. Or then again - something better.

It’s the little differences. I mean, they got the same shit over there that they got here. But it’s just - it’s just their physics is a little different. And you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese? A Royale with Cheese.

I like old music. Particularly rock from the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s. Jazz from the 1950s, 1960s. A lot of music over the last 30 years or so drive me crazy and I hate it. I use an equalizer when I watch movies because the TOO LOUD / TOO QUIET problem is even more annoying. Usually equalizing does the trick. But some damn tv series figured out an extra-annoying way of making songs TOO LOUD so I either turn down the volume or skip the scene.

I’ll leave this here.

Loudness war

The loudness war (or loudness race) is a trend of increasing audio levels in recorded music, which reduces audio fidelity and—according to many critics—listener enjoyment. Increasing loudness was first reported as early as the 1940s, with respect to mastering practices for 7-inch singles. The maximum peak level of analog recordings such as these is limited by varying specifications of electronic equipment along the chain from source to listener, including vinyl and Compact Cassette players. The issue garnered renewed attention starting in the 1990s with the introduction of digital signal processing capable of producing further loudness increases.

Also - fuck him for using the Star of David.

You done kicked over a hornet’s nest at the Pentagon, buddy.
