"I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you" is a top ten all time country line. It's so good it overshadows "running to the first bar that we find" which also goes hard.

Not circular or anything. Man is like God, therefore God is like Man.
Once a child welfare worker tags somebody as a Bad Mom, they can get awful vindictive. Like my friend Louise, who was definitely goofy and paranoid but always a totally committed mom. The CPS involvement was helpful getting her to services, and on good drugs etc and actual therapy she has bloomed, but well over the statutory 1-year time they are still keeping the kid with the very hostile foster mom. Not nice for Louise, who persists, can't imagine the strain on the kid.
Other war stories available. We def need a CPS but such potential for abuse, same as cops, little gods. There are supposedly safeguards in place like CASA and family court, but they don't seem to have any teeth.
I got my new Steam Deck this Saturday! I'm 49-years-old and I feel as giddy as I was when I was a child getting my Atari 2600 or NES. I haven't done much computer gaming since the late 90s, preferring tabletop paper-and-pencil RPGs and miniature wargames, but I there was just WAY too much cool stuff out there to ignore the medium anymore.
After cutting my teeth on a demo (i.e. Girl Genius: Adventures in Castle Heterodyne) to get the hang of the device, I purchased my first Triple-A title: Cyberpunk 2077. I played the original TRPG, Cyberpunk 2020, when I was younger and was stocked when I heard they were doing a sandbox computer game. The character creation was... through. The ability to choose your character's genital-type and size and pubic hair color is cool, but alien at first for someone weaned on the OG Yar's Revenge and Legend of Zelda. Got through the combat, hacking, and stealth tutorials and finished by first mission (retrieving the woman from the ripper gang). Got to visit V's apartment, and chuckled at the three seashell reference in the bathroom. It was getting late, so I turned in myself after I sent V to bed.
I am jealous - I’ve really wanted one for a while now (current rationalization is that I could hold off on buying a nice laptop for a while if I got one)

Here's the textised version of the LA Times article. No images, but we know what plastic bags look like.

I came in here and got two musics. I didn't espect that. I liked them both.
The Beyonce song reminds me of the last Madonna song that I really, really liked--"Don't Tell Me".
I listened to that over and over again when it came out.
Apparently that Beyonce video isn't official but a fanmade one (some clips from her other videos that fit the country theme)
Still enjoyable though.
Hey! That deer was wandering around the next town over from me... it was the talk of the local 7-11!
John Oliver offered Clarence a $million bucks a year and a new RV if he will resign. LOL! Priceless stuff.

Why would Uncle Thomas take a pay cut like that?
I don't know. He won't. But he's gonna keep getting dragged.
