Sneed, Feed and Seed rhyme. If it was called Chuck’s, what would the other two words be?

maybe it's just a big fake out and there's a perfectly reasonable explanation at the end but that seems unlikely!

ok I have two episodes to go on S4 and two things to say:

1. I didn't realize the seasons were connected even tangentially and I'm not sure I like it!
2. It seems like they're making the "supernatural" subtext of S1 more overt and I don't think I like that either!

Ok, 3 episodes in and I'm bailing on TRUE DETECTIVE S2. I should have closed my laptop the second Vince fucking Vaughn showed up, but I naively persisted. This is what I imagine it's like to watch YELLOWSTONE. Skipping to S4.

There's no "regular politics" anymore because you can no longer maintain the idea that we all agree on common goals but we only differ about the means of getting there or whatever. The guys in charge now are plainly amoral, sadistic nihilists. They delight in it! You can't civilly disagree with that

What kind of organized left wing terror group makes its members buy their own costumes?! Do they get reimbursed from the home office, is it a tax write off? More journalism, please!

Real missed opportunity to claim George Soros opened up his own costume store in Portland. Do better.

I completely abandoned this story thread because I realized the whole "demon-possessed cat" thing was A.) Overdone and B.) I didn't really have anything more to say about it.

So I guess Blank loves animals but isn't great about taking care of them.

He did used to have a cat (start reading here) lakegary.com/comic/lg_144

It got weird (start reading here) lakegary.com/comic/lg_296

The cat died on the way back to his home planet.

That was shockingly bad.

Sometimes dead is better.

Possibly! I think he’s also a “my black wife finally talked some sense into me” kinda guy.
southworth.bsky.social
He’s BEEN doing it though! He recently did a 180 on how he’s talked about women in the past, maybe he just needs another ten years to reflect 🙄

I used to get mad when people misused "decimated" to refer to things that weren't 1/10th destroyed, but I've given it some thought and now I've done a complete 360 on it

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US.
