Remember, keep your fingers away from your lit fireworks tomorrow! Not that there’s much to celebrate this week. Somewhere, remember, sic semper tyrannis. Granted, the state motto of Virginia was exclaimed by one John Wilkes Booth after shooting Abraham Lincoln, but the words themselves are useful!
We hope?
Listen, I’ve got some lovely tea to throw into a harbor (or I guess the upper Hudson Bay), but 1) it’s Chinese, not British, and B) Senorita Weaselo would kill and/or break up with me. And III) I love that aged white tea, it’s my favorite, why would I throw that out?
Meanwhile, I’ll be spending my July 4th inside a hall in *checks texts* Kiryas Joel playing some event. Wonder if there’ll be any fireworks visible, considering I’ll get out at 11.
Anyway, is there football news?
-FA (formerly with the Niners) Tashaun Gipson, Sr. gets popped for PEDs.
-THIS GUY, I CALL HIM STILL NOT GETTING EMPLOYED. (Gruden loses his court case.)
Yeah, we’re still in the doldrums. So in the doldrums that there isn’t even Copa action tonight! (Quarterfinals start tomorrow night, Argentina v. Ecuador)
Prime is cursing out me at this point (and other beisbol selections)
The Original FJM Style vs. Literally just Aaron Judge and Juan Soto at this point (CIN vs. NYY, 7:00, Prime)
Squeeze the Wheeze vs. Small Bears (PHI vs. CHC, 8:00, MLBN)
Papa Can You Hear Me? vs. Walker, Canceled TV Show (again) (SDP vs. TEX, 8:00, MLBN)
MLS on Apple TV? No, fuck that, we have some standards here. In short, I’d say check your local listings but they might not be that great either. In the meantime, feel free to watch resident menace to society Shohei Ohtani hit a kid in the face from 400+ feet away. Or feel free to search on the internets for things! I hear there’s phenomenal Youtube links to God Bless America & Take Me Out to the Ballgame… (he said, keeping plausible deniability).
Your discussion topic: What’s the word you’ve been using to describe levels of fucked? For me, it’s been “interminably.”
Our town festival, Sagra, starts tomorrow and runs through Monday nights closing fireworks. For a town of 4000 people they put on a decent 20 minute show. I love the dancing under the stars each night. My freak flirt flag truely flys.
That sounds incredible.
Enjoy.
Happy 3rd of July from what sounds like a war- torn San Pedro.
This fucking town and their fireworks man.
Greatest display ever on the 4th is any single one of the streets in this town.
Happy Friday light People!
It’s getting lit up in here.
My poor kitty is already hiding underneath the couch.
Salute!
Salute!
Airport is super crowded tonight
The grocery store was stupid.
But I know how to navigate around that shit.
I have a plan.
As an aside, I hate that the Democrats are rebooting one of the shittiest West Wing plot lines.
Not me. Sticking with Biden after the debate would be like if the Jets stuck with Aaron Rodgers after he tore his achilles tendon.
I’m sticking with planning on Trump ‘winning’.
I still have an old tumblr and I’ve been thinking a lot about experiences in the last ten years and how eventually some hobby or media you love stops being for you and that’s okay. Something that way too fucking many people seem lost on, including me in how it took way too long (decades) to realize that and to realize even in my heyday what a dumb and arrogant shit I was as a fanboy of something.
Age is the greatest teacher ever.
I’m old as fuck and smarter than I’ve ever been.
Not really old as fuck based on how I feel.
I’ve got an easy 25 more years.
We’re just hitting the 4th quarter.
It’s rally time Boys!
Lighten up on yourself Buddy. We all do that from time to time.
Thank you my friend but actually i feel great.
Life is very good and the grind goes on.
How do you celebrate this day? Where you live?
I’m curious.
I live in Novoledo. It’s about 7 miles north of Vicenza with a wonderful view of the mountains.
For the 4th I usually grill out, and just relax. But this year the girls all have stuff going on so I will have left over roast chicken with rice and peppers for lunch, and tend the garden. The tomatoes are coming in.
It’s a nice quiet place.
Thanks.
Speaking of the devil, is Buddy still around?
Gonna be in Kentucky tomorrow, there might be rain instead of fireworks and there will definitely be bourbon and horses and boubon with pictures of horses and american flags on it
England is having their election tomorrow. Hopefully they shitcan the Tories.
The Tories are going to get destroyed like Hessians at Christmas. It’s just a shame Labour is led by Blairites who won’t meaningfully change anything.
This sounds oddly familiar.
Almost certainly, instead of Rishi it’ll be That Other Guy. Starmer has done a great job of not actually holding any positions and just not being a Tory
Follow any men out shootin for some food. You could make it rich in the petro chemical business.
For president?
That’s really fucking good
Who’s the rapist QB du jour?
Deshaun Watson.
The key is to throw OTHER people’s tea into a harbor somewhere
Hey, I saw that YouTube vid and It was

PLAY BALL!
Everyone os okay!

Neighborhood fireworks are full on already
Yeah, I didn’t really want to have a slumber party with the animals tonight but it’s looking like I have no choice.
Ultra mega fucked is my go to.
Okay I am dying over the video of that poor kid taking an Ohtani dinger right in the noggin. It was only after I stopped and rewatched the impact like six times that I realized the poster of the video did the exact same thing.
Are we going to Hell for laughing? No more than all the other shit.
Proper.
This is the answer
Everyone Else: “Joe Burrow changed his hair!”
Me: “‘God, those old New Stripes Uniforms sucked ass!”
Redesigning the Bengals uniforms is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
Wait, no, that’s a terrible analogy. It’s more like going into the ship’s septic system, collecting a bunch of turds, and arranging them on the deck so they read “HELP, WE JUST HIT AN ICEBERG”.
So much for ‘the tiger can’t change its stripes’
Rigorously?
