you can immediately clock WKRP fans just by seeing whose face lights up with these 10 little words: "As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."
“WKRP In Cincinnati” premieres 47 years ago today — a show that creator Hugh Wilson based on radio staff he knew from his days in advertising.
“Every call letter that I ran through my mind was already taken,” he said. “I think WKRP was not taken because it can be said that it spells ‘crap.'”

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.

This month was set to be one of my worse sales months, which correspond strongly to my health...and, then, someone went through and bought every book in my sci-fi series. I don't know if that person follows me, but, if they do...I saw that and you're amazing. It was a horrible day and you fixed it.

Maybe the next generation will set its sights on solving systemic problems instead of “My burrito is at a restaurant, but I’m all cozy here so, can a guy with a medical degree from another country bring it to me.” We’ve got that covered, and then some.

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.
