I’ll never understand why so many Democrats worship at the altar of bipartisanship and treat it as the end all be all of politics. It can be a means to an end, but that’s it. All these yea’s think “I helped the guy destroying the country” is something to brag about.

“But you were always a good man of business, Jacob,” faltered Scrooge…
“Business!” cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. “Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business.”

Was thinking about this movie last night, it was my favorite when I was 5. The villain, a cat who pretends to be a mouse to get the other mice to vote against their own interests, is eventually defeated by a multiethnic coalition of immigrants. No idea what made it pop into my head again.
It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

Years ago after lunch at a diner in Chugwater (pop 250) a buddy and I were in the parking lot with a map spread out on the hood of his car trying to figure out where to go next. Our waitress opened the door and called to us “now you boys be careful, I don’t want to see you on the news tonight.” 1/

For years I’ve been calling Schumer a damp towel, but I now realize I’ve been deeply unfair to damp towels. I apologize and will strive to be better in the future.
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?
Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."

Will Smith has a reading foundation and visits public schools. Just so you know the guy who hit that game winning homer has done good things for the LAUSD
Daughter comes out of school with a brand new Dodgers hat and I ask her where she got it.
"Oh this guy Will Smith from the Dodgers read us a story at school today"

All timer performance by Yamamoto. Got me explaining Walter Johnson, Cy Young, Christy Mathewson to Trish. I’m going full Ken Burns. She’s… tolerating it. She has become a big Shohei fan this year. And Kiké and Mookie

Your word for today:
Fallow - adj: a time of restorative inactivity and rest
“It used to be that November was a fallow period before the Christmas season, but now it starts the day after Halloween.”
A week, just give us a week, please (I’ve already heard Christmas music today)

Día de los Muertos is beautiful in its simplicity, remembering loved ones who are gone. Not a day of mourning but of celebration. And with food like this it’s rocketing up my list of favorite holidays.

I was skeptical but the high schooler insisted potatoes are the hot treat, and they were right. Kids are so excited to get a potato. Like with 6-7, I don’t think it’s supposed to make sense

Proud to say I haven’t eaten (practically) any of the trick or treat candy yet. It remains (essentially) untouched.
But now it’s time to get the party started.

Tomorrow will be the first Halloween in 9 years where we don’t have a kid in elementary school, which means no costume parade. It was always one of my favorite events of the year.

This year’s annual meeting of the Herk Harvey Appreciation Society has come to order.
We love Herk Harvey, don’t we folks? Found the perfect sweet spot between Val Lewton and David Lynch with Carnival Of Souls and never directed again. An efficient king.
