Aw man, RIP. First learned about Cliff when Bruce Springsteen covered Trapped in ‘85, then saw The Harder They Come as a midnight movie as a college freshman a few years later. That soundtrack and his catalog haven’t left my play pile. Banger after banger.

Just finished writing my script for a version of Wizard of Oz told entirely from Toto’s perspective.

8675309 is prime, and so is 8675311, so if you ever need a middlin'-large pair of adjacent primes to test your cryptographic suite, all you need is a 1980s earworm and a +2 and you're all set.
Man, everything is so bleak, anyone got a fun fact or little bit of trivia they want to share

Lots of people comparing Senate Democrats to Charlie Brown trying to kick the football, but that analogy only works in a version where Lucy has told Charlie Brown she's going to pull it away, and also that afterwards she's going to have Snoopy executed in a foreign prison

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit
Defense says that the officer's testimony was "very questionable" because he said the sandwich both exploded in spray of mustard and onions and also landed in its wrapper on the ground.

We’ve had a lot more trick or treaters than usual. Nice to see the city telling ICE to suck eggs.
