Love my linen, and want to vouch for modal fabric if you see it. Apparently it's made from wood, but it feels like a mix between linen and cotton.
hey, the good news is, it's only prevalent here from uh
April to uh
October
bahia grass pollen season, baby! It's highly aggravating to a lot of people and doesn't cloud the air, so even low AQI can be a lie.
Chris Carter: "Ok, so we know, in retrospect, the Mythology episodes are generally the weaker links. So we're going..."

Where the 1998 film executed badly on the things that make The X-Files good (conspiracy, paranormal, adventure), the 2008 film used a script for what would have been a C- episode of the show (or Millennium!) to talk in stupid terms about news items in the late 2000s.
fun fact: I got into UFOs and the entire genre I could only describe as 'X Files Stuff' because when I was six, I decided to *read the whole library* and that stuff was at the beginning. I quickly gave up on the task, btu was stuck with the KNOWLEDGE.
they should make that cop do this
In ruling that bong water is a drug mixture, the Minnesota Supreme Court justices relied, in part, on the testimony of a state patrol officer who claimed that drug users keep bong water โfor future useโฆ either drinking it or shooting it in the veins.โ

Yeah, looks like the One Lake developers might be on the run. Time to finish them off so they can't eat up the next 25 years of flood control (and my damn time)

Way back in 2014 when I got on twitter, my goal was to fight a local development project that involves damming up the Pearl River in Jackson. The project has taken another blow, but it's hard to kill the dreams of the idle rich.

Filed on Friday: Netchoice v Fitch, a challenge to Mississippi's bill requiring social websites to age-verify their users and block access to protected speech the state of Mississippi thinks is "harmful" to minors. Yup, we're doing this YET AGAIN.
That's it.
I've ordered a cloak.
Still: I WANT to be a guy who owns at least one cape.
PROBABLY MORE THAN ONE.
Yes, I already have robes. THAT'S DIFFERENT.
(yes, I will post cloak when it arrives)

It's great. Even a letters page. Go on, git.
No new comics from me until next Monday, but I've put Kit + The Wolf back up in its own special "micro-site" so you can remember the good times.

Video and tabletop games fall into this interesting space where I enjoy playing them (and running games as a DM) but I really have the opposite of enjoyment for podcasts and media ABOUT games. Let's Plays, reviews, your D&D shows, that sort of thing. Cannot stand it.
well now I gotta watch it because "Bernie" is one of my all-time faves, captures a certain sort of town, perfectly
After you watch Hit Man (which is now streaming on Netflix, & also still in theaters in many cities), read the Texas Monthly profile that served as its inspiration. By the same writer, Skip Hollandsworth, whose true-crime journalism inspired the way-underseen Richard Linklater movie Bernie.
My adage "Mississippi is the future" is going global, baby!

As a historic presidential election looms, several of Americaโs largest and most powerful newsrooms are now being led by English journalists. Why?

WE WERE GLEEKING IN THE MID 90s!
was this just a thing at my middle school or was there a widespread fad in the early 00s of lifting your tongue and shooting spit straight out your saliva glands

oh god this would be my dream job, just cram me into random dive bars across America with a voice recorder and ask drunks about AMERICA
People who go to diners have far too much influence in American politics, who is out on the streets trying to find the vibe at the dive bars?
god I miss reading the deranged personal ads (and buying ridiculous things)
Good small era-affirming detail in THEM season 2, set in 1991, where the detective leaks something to a friendly reporter at a tabloid-sized alt weekly
Frankly it kind of rules that there's now a hard-to-watch Japanese-specific Godzilla movie (Shin Godzilla) it's just like being a kid again.
BUT if the powers-that-be in Mississippi love anything, it's something that costs a lot and doesn't work!
"As a result of the project, normal river stages would be โpermanently elevated,โ increasing the potential for flooding along Jacksonโs numerous tributaries." Brilliant flood control, guys. (It is NOT a flood control project but it's marketed that way)

@bengoldfarb.bsky.social I need to know: Did the aerial beaver operation succeed, or were there just beavers in those woods already?
"tried?" The beavers got there! There's beavers there now! (To be fair, I'm only mildly convinced that they're the same beavers, all beavers in the continental US should be absurdly inbred if the rewilding story is 100% accurate)
