mine is the mitford-hitler baby
Haven't figured out what should replace Polybius as my "one conspiracy theory that I know is BS but believe anyway." My interim has been "the Lindbergh baby is still out there" but I'm gonna need to come up with smth slightly less absurd before the impending centennial of that kidnapping.

For “barely legal type” read “not legal”
Of course there's a difference, and it's reflected in many state laws.
But . . . that isn't the point. Middle-aged men coercing sexually mature but underage girls into sex is still illegal, exploitative, and vile. "But they weren't 8-year-olds!" is a really weird thing to say.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

good episode! as often happens there's a lot of good stuff even for people who don't know the material. speaking for myself (to my shame) i'm not even sure if i've ever really realised that the "proud mary" song and the "fortunate son" were in fact by the same band.
The new episode of A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs is now up! Racial slurs! Tolkien! West Coast jazz! Dancing pigs! Lawsuits! So many lawsuits! It can only be the story of Creedence Clearwater Revival and "Proud Mary".

but was the sandwich rocket propelled?
Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

Now everything’s cool; the beast’s part of the band;
my monster mash is now the hit of the land;
but the witches’ curse means the living can’t hear it;
you’ll have to be happy with this rather different tribute.

A fallacy that I see some organizers promote [sometimes] is that people 'just know what to do' and this is simply not true. Tell people what you are doing and invite them to join in.

so I’m listening to some Tolkien podcast and one of the guys is talking about his digital Tolkien text search and annotations database and he notes they’re not able to provide actual text or searches… @steuard.bsky.social I’ve had an idea.
