Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: I Haven’t Eaten My Weight in Nian Gao, Year of Snek Edition

This is on account of me getting to Senorita Weaselo’s late last night, after dinner. So it was already divvied up and I just got part of her share. Which sucks because if left to my own devices I will eat a good amount of them, because it’s just glutinous rice flour and brown sugar, and maybe some walnuts which I don’t like as much—not a big walnut guy. Doing better there though, they just don’t have anything interesting going on there.

(Also we would have had a Nocturnes Magazine for you this week but some genius thought it would be a good idea to use the day off from school to schedule 5 straight hours of makeup lessons. So this is all being done from the studio, again. Nocturnes Magazine will be after our annual Hate Week.)

Is there news?

I mean nothing too major, fluff pieces like the Hoodie recommending that if they were to rename the Lombardi Trophy to do it after Brady. I would say that’s probably not changing, HOWEVAH, the Super Bowl MVP doesn’t have someone named after it! I think.

Do you want an ad spot? First off, you’re SOL because it’s sold out. Second off, do you have a spare $8 million? Because that’s how much it’s costing.

Actual notable news! Chuck Pagano unreturned to join the Ravens coaching staff as their “senior secondary coach.”

HI I’M MARK DAVIS! I’M EXCITED TO HAVE TOM BRADY HERE AFTER THEY CHOPPED OFF JOHN GRUDEN’S HEAD. THEY WANTED TO USE A GWILLO… GILA… GUILLOTINE!

What’s on?

Hockey (Flyera vs. Fuck Jack Hughes at 7; Sid’s corpse vs. HTTHC at 9:30), basketball of all varieties (including Nuggets-Knicks and Thunder-Warriors because we’re almost at caring about basketball time though give it another month or so), and possibly other stuff.

I’m unfortunately back at Apartment Weaselo after teaching, so no piling on… I don’t have a steamer or glutinous rice flour to make my own.

Senor Weaselo plays the violin. He tucks it right under his chin. When he isn't doing that, he enjoys watching his teams (Yankees, Jets, Knicks, and Rangers), trying to ingest enough capsaicin to make himself breathe fire (it hasn't happened yet), and scheming to acquire the Bryant Park zamboni.

Good to know, sailor.

Aye, skipper

It was an alien drone helicopter.

I mean, if I’m just reading news headlines anymore.

Can’t wait for the government’s official response to this incident.

Leonard Bernstein breaks down the opening of Richard Strauss’s “Also Sprach Zarathustra” on a Young People’s Concert titled “Thus Spake Richard Strauss,” which aired nationwide on CBS in 1971.

This is pretty cool:

rename the Lombardi Trophy to do it after Brady.

This is the timeline we live in.

I am such a loser that I am writing tomorrow’s Europa League preview and am watching Fulham’s 2010 run highlights. I still hate Diego Forlan.

I still maintain peak Patriots SB run(s) weren’t as insufferable as the current Kansas City run

I’d put Trump before Kansas City. Downvote me all you want, at least Donny Boy earned his win.

Did he though? There’s more than a few Charlie conspiracies (elon, et. all) that suggest otherwise.

Not a great combo

Good thing we just got rid of the Aviation Safety Committee clearly was no need.

Still, this happened because woke. (yes that’s already very much a thing on Elon’s shitscape)

Yup, trumps already blaming “DEI Hires” for the wreck.

Found a funny:

RFK Jr trying to distance himself from the antivax movement is like Bob Seger denouncing old time rock and roll.

Or that he ever had night moves unrelated to his bowels.

So for those among us who supported the Tasmanian Devils, apparently they do a founding member spotlight in some of their emails. Who is gonna be the one to let them know about a bunch of support coming from an American football (adjacent) dick joke blog?

I just got an email from them today! Apparently, they are going on tour… In Australia.

They really need to be aware of their American fan club…

I’m so disappointed they wont be playing yet when I’m there in August!

Arizona is doing a name a snowplow contest. It’s one of those public deals for the DOT and they put the decal of the winning name on a plow.

At least I found an old batch of antibiotics one of my idjit kids didn’t even 20% finish, so I can self-diagnose and treat my diverticulitis.

NEVER, ever throw away old medicines.

Unless it’s that one anti-malarial that causes really fucked up psychosis. Although maybe you should save that and give it to your enemies. So yes, NEVER

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Doxycycline? I’ve taken that. All it did was give me some very vivid dreams and also this halo of miniature mythical creatures that argue incessantly about what I should set on fire first.

Doktor Zymm

Mefloquine I think

Mefloquin is the fucked up one. I was on it several deployments before the bad side effects made them change to Doxy.

So Trump is now saying he’s going to send all the migrants to Guantanamo. How exactly is that supposed to work? No one knows! Free flights to Cuba for all!

Unfortunately they haven’t mentioned anything about mojitos or ropa vieja

Pretty brutal way to end DEI

I may have mentioned before that my new job is more technical than my past jobs, and today I finished and tested locally my most complex project with a bunch of new-to-me stuff to date. I’ve learned a lot in a pretty short period of time and I’m really proud of what I’ve accomplished so far, with more good stuff to come!

Combine that with all the stuff going on at Meta recently and I have never been happier that I was laid off when I was, which is saying something because I’ve been pretty happy about it the whole time

My old college roomates and I are all turning 40 this year. We want to do a long weekend trip together. I’m trying to convince the collective to go to Edinburgh. 3 days in Scotland from the East Coast is plenty of time right? I’m not completely insane for suggesting that right?

Not since you’re flying in from Boston, the closest US city to Europe.

Sounds fun!

Doktor Zymm

Yeah, and this time of year it’s quick to fly east, so you’ll get there faster than if you were headed to Cali. Coming back will suck, but just make sure you’re hungover enough that you can sleep the whole way and you’re set

Sharkbait

We’re looking at the end of June, and San Diego was suggested by another guy. I’m gonna do my best to get them to go to Scotland

Doktor Zymm

The time of year just impacts the difference between the east and west flight, so either way EDI and SAN are equivalent in flight time (about 6.5 hrs) the only difference is whether the outbound or inbound is longer

So yeah, if they’re willing to do SAN then they’re willing to do EDI even if they don’t know it yet!

ballsofsteelandfury

Here’s something you can use to persuade them: Has no one heard of June Gloom?!?

In June in Southern California, which includes San Diego, the marine layer comes in off the ocean and blocks the sun until the afternoon. Your mornings are cold and wet.

If you’re going to be cold and wet, you might as well be in Scotland!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Doktor Zymm

Note: For normal folk from the northern 2/3s of the country June Gloom is actually perfectly nice, and you get similar effects anywhere on a western coast, but you don’t need to mention that to your friends

Sharkbait

That’s what I’m saying! So far I’ve really only talked to one guy and he was waffling because of the flight and jet lag. That’s what the whisky is for!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

We’re watching a Korean medical drama and they keep scoffing at where the main character went to school. I assume it’s the Korean equivalent of Gudger College.

Jimbo

or Hollywood Upstairs Medical College.

I actually went out and shot a basketball today for the first time in God knows how long. I did better than I expected to, as long as I stayed within six feet of the hoop.

I shovelled the driveway twice, that’s the same kinda thing, right?
