Lyrics I wish I'd written:

"I saw my baby the other day
I said baby walk my way
Would you like to go to a movie
Yeah, that would really be OK."
Which reminds me of a blues ditty friends and I used to sing in college that went like this...

Bagels on Mars
Bagels on Venus
I've got bagels on my nose
Oh bagels (dooo, dooo, dooo)
Oh bagels (doo, doo, dooo)
Bagels, bagels, got those bagel blues.
Rinse, repeat, ad infinitum...

TIL that in 1970, Oregon's GOP governor funded a state-sponsored rock concert called Vortex. Nixon was slated to speak at the pro-American Legion's convention in Portland on August 30. The concert was designed to divert protesters from the city. It worked. oregonencyclopedia.org/articles/vorte…
Here's an OPB documentary about the event. pbs.org/video/oregon-e…
The Kent State massacre had happened in May 1970, and many people had been injured at a Portland State protest in response to Kent State. So when the word came out that Nixon and the American Legion were bringing 25,000 people to Portland, there were worries about Kent State 2.

I think this journalist got played by Tucker. Tucker believes in Tucker's bank account. Ful stop. Tucker is playing the role he needs to play right now to attract racist viewers. He's not going to break character for some Atlantic journalist. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
I was surprised that this article used Tucker's own, right wing framing, with insufficient self-awareness. For example, using the antisemitic dog whistle term "globalist" without scare quotes stood out to me. As if "corporate globalism" is just an objective thing.
This passage also stood out. Immigration restriction and attitudes about race have always been intertwined in American history and politics. They are inseparable. There's nothing "voguish" about seeing that connection.

Haha! Commiecast. Because they’re commies. Owned by Comcast! What a pistol that guy is. What a brain he must have to come up with clever jokes like that!!!
Look, I make some of the most brain-numbingly terrible dad jokes on this god forsaken website, and even I know “Commiecast” is the f*cking stupedest thing I’ve ever seen.
Two additional thoughts on "Commiecast."
1) Don't forget that Trump's mentor in the 1970s and 80s was McCarthy's right hand man, Roy Cohn.
2) This is a very popular meme in MAGA-ville. A friend of mine saw someone flying a flag with this image on their pickup.

Ok. The Rewatch begins.
"The taxation of trade routes"
George had total creative control. Lol.
As I remember, Visually beautiful to start but George goes full bore into the Republic Serial racist tropes early.
He's heavily trying to make it feel like a 30s/40s pic in your hind brain.
I love the retro tech within Star Wars aesthetic.

Ok! Since I have decided to just not go to my plans tonight, let's get this Soulmate Letter Boss Tweet Fic running!

@reylo_prompts @fic_hub

~ R E D • L E T T E R • D A Y~
Rey's phone rings first thing in the morning. Finn. The most annoying thing about this is that they each have to be home to receive their letters, or they could do it together instead of over the phone.

She goes from asleep to Disneyland excited as she throws herself out of bed
She answers as she runs to the front door.

"Did you get it?"

"Yeah" Finn pants in her ear and her heart swells with love.

There on her mat is a small tried envelope. It's a new scheme, government-sent letters holding the name of your ACTUAL soulmate

Ok so I’ll be doing a Jikook Au and it’s my first one, so don’t judge. I had this idea in my head for some time, so I hope I enjoy! ~thread~
Summary: Jimin has been an idol for quiet some time, when Jungkook debuts and takes over the KPop industry. Even though Jimin normally isn’t like this, he starts disliking the younger boy for stealing all the spotlight. That is, of course, until the two meet. #jikookau
Profiles:
Jimin- Idol, friends with Tae and Hobi, fans are his lovelies, signed under HopeManagement

The #mind is always ready to go on a trip because it is only in trips that it feels alive. #Meditation simply means sitting silently, doing nothing, not even #thinking and the mind disappears. Because you are not on any trip, the mind is no longer needed.
The #mind is a guide for great journeys. If you are going somewhere, the mind is very happy; in your going somewhere the mind can feel enhanced. But if you are not going anywhere, just sitting #silently, doing nothing, the mind feels very #sad.
It will happen almost always to meditators that when the mind feels sad, it starts creating #boredom for you; that is a strategy of the mind. The mind is saying, "Come on! Let us go somewhere, let us do something. Why are you sitting? Just sitting doing nothing brings boredom!"

1/ I'm stunned, but not surprised by AT&T's decision to extended their #Friends licensing deal with Netflix through 2019. A perfect example of, despite saying they were committed to winning in SVOD, Big Media wants to have their cake, eat it to - and then hope they get a 3rd cake
2/ #Friends is one of Netflix's most valuable titles. It's one of the most celebrated sitcoms, one of Netflix's most popular series, and has a whopping 236 episodes of tonnage - and a fervent fanbase
3/ AT&T could (and should) have simply moved #Friends to HBO, their leading SVOD asset. Imagine the impact on customer acquisition - all of a sudden the press coverage inundates all Friends fans to get HBO, if they haven't already!

What is that saying? ‘’Little drops of water make a mighty _____________ ‘’ #WealthWednesday
Jude worked full time with an oil and gas firm while Toke, his wife was a full time home manager. #WealthWednesday
This arrangement gave her time to raise their kids & run a small business from home especially as they did not want a live-in help though they could afford it. #WealthWednesday
