I love the Pilot. Holy shit!!

Angel Dust, the porn star, went to the Drugs vending machine, got some angel dust and then someone stole it and rode off yelling "Up yours drag show!"

If anyone here is interested in this show, then please know that snowflakes will melt. If "you" are the type that gets offended by words, then do not watch 'Hazbin Hotel'.

Lawl. Wouldn't recommend it to people who are anti LGBTQ, though (coughmydadcough). Same with Helluva Boss. Very much pro-LGBTQ on both shows, but it's not shown in a way that screams, "In your face!"; it's very much natural and focuses more on the characters and who they are rather than any demographic.

Really digging Saorise (SER-shuh) Ronan. I've seen her in a few other films, like 'The Way Back', which is epic, 'Brooklyn', which is surprisingly sweet and recently 'The Host', which is apropos. There was another one, but can't member berry it.

She was spectacular in Lady Bird. She was also in The Grand Budapest Hotel but had a very minor role.

She was in Grand Budapest? It's been awhile since I've seen it but I can't remember her in there, not doubting you BTW just surprised as I love that movie.
 
One time I saw Michael Jackson up close.

Camp Zama, an Army artillery base, in Kanagawa, Japan. 2007.

He was frail. He came by helicopter lol
 
In the Navy we stopped in Koper, Slovenia and I missed curfew on the USS Truman. I blacked out gambling.

Next morning I look in my wallet and see my $200 I bring to gamble with is gone. I kinda expected that.

So I throw on my jeans and find $800 Euro in casino chips in my front pocket.

Friends said I was playing blackjack and refusing to hit, like on anything lol and that I would leave my chips on the table after a win and when asked what I wanted to do with my bet, would explain, "let it ride!"

It ended up being over a thousand US dollars that I won lol

Edit: my punishment for missing curfew was that at the next port, I had to be last one off.

She was the assistant baker with the birthmark shaped like Mexico on her cheek (and Zero's wife).

I also forgot that she was in the movie "Hanna", which was pretty badass (she spent months doing weapons and martial arts training), but the Amazon series was even better.

I ran a little experiment a few days ago. For two days, I ate primarily carbs and a wild glycemic ride ensued. Highs and lows and dragging ass.

I’ll stick to steak and eggs for breakfast.

@joe galiba mentioned ELO and now I'm on an ELO trip. This song is a blast from my childhood. My favorite ELO song.

ELO was Beatles-esque, but I also love what Scissor Sisters did with the Beatles and ELO style.


I am a big, big ELO fan, I remember as a kid my dad driving us to our farm listening to Casey Kasem and wondering what spot this was going to be
my favorite song is Mr Blue Sky, it puts me in a good mood no matter what
 
Scissor Sisters pay respects to lots of bands through their music.

Great band that wraps up in a tidy package The Beatles, ELO, Supertramp and Elton John.


 
The sauerkraut I made is okay. A tad salty.

Really easy to do. Slice cabbage, add salt and squeeze the cabbage for a few minutes. Water will start coming out. Squeeze out enough water so that the cabbage can ferment in its own liquid. Place a weight on top, so that cabbage is submerged and place it in your pantry for a few days. I use a large mason jar and it’s important to not tighten the lid. Allow the fermentation to happen without trapping the gases. Kosher salt is best cuz it’s flaky and easy to control.

I mute the sound and don’t look, but I still catch snippets of these pharmaganda infomercials. Take this drug and be active!!

How’s that ozempic working out for you?

I noticed all of those drugs they're pushing have 3 syllables.

Maybe to sounds smart or thought out??

I have a coworker who was 340ish and is now under 240, he was pretty active for his age, just couldn't lose the weight until now
everyday I ask him where the hell did your ass go?

At some point he will develop stomach paralysis. That's how ozempic works.

Ask him how many times per day he vomits?

Does his face look different? Like really different? Not just weight loss different?

no vomiting, no difference in his face, he lost his taste for beer and switched to vodka and cranberry is the only real change other than the weight loss

If only everyone (including myself more than 2 years at a time) could just make it a math game of in/spent without letting 1 cheat day become 3, 5, and 7.

(floated 160-220 for years, and now 185-260 with realistic cuts being 185-200 in a 2-3 month span)
