Vincent Schiavelli was possibly most famous for playing The Subway Ghost in the Patrick Swayze / Demi Moore hit Ghost. The pic reminded me again of the unlikely historical oddity that Schiavelli died from cancer at 57, and Patrick Swayze ALSO died from cancer ALSO at 57, just a few years later.

Do Americans somehow not know a “doodle” is a penis? Keep seeing unironic headlines about Trump sending birthday cards with his doodle on it to Epstein, people denying they’ve seen his doodle etc.

The only reason the Rebels a chance against The Empire is because they don’t have video cameras and they don’t have AI. Any futuristic fascist regime will have audio bugging everywhere and AI listening to what you are saying to weed out anyone plotting for freedom. Smart phones will be compulsory.

Thirty or so years ago I missed the final episode of Twin Peaks and never saw it. Finally started watching it again from the start tonight. I remember nearly nothing so it was quite good.

If you only watch one thing about the odious Pete Hegseth, watch him being dismantled by Kirsten Gillibrand, who has no time for his bullshit.

Truth and integrity are now a self-serve checkout, and you’ll probably be on camera, but it’s impossible to steal from Zuckerberg or Musk, only dogpaddle among the flood of lies they let loose for the next four years and beyond.

Today’s Republicans like to lay claim to Abraham Lincoln, but they’d never vote for a man like him if he ran today.
