Screenshot of a time when Boston Banker Giant “John Handcock” could employ the satirists to say what they wanted to say about bankers…to help the bankers sell name recognition.

So is it named after someone’s BIRTH day or DEATH day? 😎

Mr French Fries @mrfrenchfries.bsky.social · 18h

Kinda hope this explains the origin of the holiday

No one needs more than 3 nights in Vegas …but I could spend a MONTH documenting the safrifices to our dessert ecosystem on the drive to Vegas.

There are vacation spots, there are tourist traps, and there are reset pins. #idyllwild

There hasn’t been a bad time in 30 years to check out Melvins’ zero fucks metal rock. Not sure why I’m in the boat of not saying ‘the’ Melvins. Maybe because ‘a Melvins tourist’ streamlines better than ‘a tourist of the melvins.’ 🤓

How differently 1812 might have played…

Kinda sucks, for everyone, that we have to ask.

Maybe we’re assuming medicine HAS to be as inherently deceptive as commodities to justify treating it like a commodity. Kinda like an infection that spreads itself by being itchy.

Ron Gabaldon captured Vonnegut so well that I assumed he was a bot. There are other reasons I assumed he was a bot, but the only encouraging one is that I think I heard him read an Oz book for Livrevox (librebox?) I honestly wish he were here on Bluesky

If you’re looking for talented narrators to work with on an audio project, you can find Jacob Castellon and Ron Gabaldon on ACX. They’re both extremely talented performers and diligent producers who work at a fair rate.

www.imdb.com/title/tt0431... No, Tubi isn’t the best way to stream things, but this kind of thing has aged amazingly well for any animation fan…if they can handle a dizzying summersault between dated cliches and timelessly joyful whimsy.

Not DIRECTLY related, but we’re watching Death to Smoochy now. It reminds me of the Blues Brothers, of NeoNazis becoming a laughable evil…while the media pimps could just keep changing costumes.

Please tell me Mr Loggins put that on record. Please tell me no one is going to make a ‘put the log in loggins joke’ because a turd log and a login password are already too much alike.

A media platform that doesn’t need to cater to advertisers…the person running such a powerful platform wouldn’t need a lifetime appointment, would they? 🤔

Mr French Fries @mrfrenchfries.bsky.social · 2d

How many people have written big heavy books about the absurdity of lifetime appointments since 1812? 🫥
