This quote “Perhaps the world will end at the kitchen table, while we are laughing and crying, eating of the last sweet bite.” …reminds me of the end of the movie “Don’t Look Up”…it, indeed, ends with them around the table.

I read (and printed and put on my fridge) Perhaps the World Ends Here last year when it was suggested. Fantastic choice! Amanda Gorman is great too but the other one really hit me.

"The self-driving car pioneer". There are no true self driving cars, so he's not really much of a pioneer.

Jesse Watters Says He May File Restraining Order Against Joy Behar

"Behar was defending some LGBT-inflected holiday junk for sale at Target, which included a “pride” themed version of the traditional nutcracker soldier figurine. Behar went there, and suggested using the nutcracker to commit physical violence against a specific part of Fox host Jesse Watters’ anatomy.

“They threatened to crack my nuts,” Watters said, in a clip shared on social media."

Yitzhak Rabin was re elected PM of ISRAEL in 1992 running on a peace plan w the Palestinians. He signed several agreements w Palestinian leaders (the Oslo Accords) designed to move towards establishment of an Independent Palestinian state. He was assassinated by a right wing Israeli extremist in 1995. His death effectively marked the end of that peace process.

It was downhill from there, culminating with Trump and Netanyahu's circle-jerk of a foreign policy that tossed any idea of a two-state solution out of the car because one is a totalitarian and one is a global-level idiot.

I hope I've seen this correctly, but my favorite Neil, Gaiman, bailed on that shit a while ago. Where's Neil when you need him? Not on twitter:

Welp, I had no idea that the #1 and #2 in the Women's BBL were gonna have at it, so I'm up later than I thought. And Adelaide is putting the hurt on Perth right now. Somehow, I think they're gonna get 22 in 48 before Perth gets five wickets from them.

And the Men's BBL is in two weeks. I know it's not 'real' cricket, but I love me some T20.

It amazes me that a country that invented a game can become so fucking dreadful at it (England and by extension Britain, I mean).

I, a humble Yankee, only discovered the game a few years ago, and I'm still learning about the intricacies. That said, I'd still rather watch it than baseball.
