Hung out with this friond in the Buenos Aires cemetery where Evita is buried, August 2012.

Longhair black and white cat on a concrete bench in a cemetery. She looks grumpy but then again all cats look grumpy. She might be happy, who knows.

I would like an award for the restraint I have shown in not cynically posting cute videos of our foster kitten Rocky for likes @turok.bsky.social

Wow Chicago looks crazy today

Still from Enemy (2013), Toronto skyline, with the movie’s trademark yellow tinted coloring, looking polluted and/or like Chicago pictures circulating today.

No one knows.

NRSC tweet from 2019: “Jerry Peters wants to take your steak, Michigan. Let’s see if he’s still “excited” about the #GreenNewDeal as the #DemDebate comes to his home state… #MISen #GreenNewGary”

With a billboard pinning “Jerry Peters” to Bernie and Warren.

A 10-year-old and and 8-year-old were also in the car, and Israel couldn’t even say if the 4th person was their target.

The bomb hit a car in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City at dusk Tuesday, killing passersby Mohamed al-Wahidi, an official at the Egyptian Committee in Gaza, 10-year-old boy Hamza al-Deri and his 8-year-old brother Fari. Ahmed Daghmush, 33, the driver of the car, was also killed. That’s according to Dr. Mohamed Abu Selmiya, the director of Shifa Hospital which received the four bodies.

The Israeli military said that al-Wahidi, who helped organize the soccer screenings, was not a target of the strike. It said the strike was aiming for a Hamas militant and that it was checking if Daghmush was the target of the strike.

Long day at work, Zürich is normally dead on weeknights after 10pm, came back to my hotel to this! I forgot Switzerland was playing tonight.

Im giving The Prisoner another go. Ziggy is into it.

This is not a pity post! Going to hang with friends later, and my family is out being social. I’m happy for the quiet. It’s just weird how it feels to live through “history” and it’s just “any other day” vibes. I hope folks are having a good one. Whatever you want to do with it.

My cat Brother Coconut on my lap. This was actually a few days ago but I don’t feel like standing up and putting a cat on myself against their will for the sake of my post. He or one of the others will be there soon, I guarantee you that.

I busted these out today

This really is up there with one of their best. It reminds me a bit of this tweet—but with a straight-to-the-punchline take on corporate propaganda and rewriting history.

2014 tweet by @Stev_D: “we’re a modest company with modest goals:
1: sell a quality product at a fair price
2: drain the world’s oceans so we can find and kill god”

Kathy Griffin photoshoot pre-imagined by Caravaggio

Caravaggio’s David with the Head of Goliath (c. 1606), a young man holding up the severed head of Goliath, the artist’s trademark mastery of light in full display. Don’t get mad at me Secret Service, this is meta commentary.

Hieronymus Cock

Wikipedia section of Curaçao’s etymology:

From 1525, the island was featured on Spanish maps as Curaçote, Curasaote and Curasaore.[16] By the 17th century, it appeared on most maps as Curaçao or Curazao. On a map created by Hieronymus Cock in 1562 in Antwerp, the island was called Qúracao.

My cats rarely if ever are into what’s on our TV but Ziggy is locked into Nicolas Winding Refn’s Too Old to Die Young. @chrisryan77.bsky.social

Still from E2 of Too Old to Die Young, two bound men in the foreground, one shirtless and killed, the other a cop who is sitting and awaiting to the same fate, darkly dressed man in cowboy hat in the background.

It’s Juneteenth. Post your favorite Black fictional character. *SPOILER for X Files* We called him Mr. X in the fora. I loved that he had a call sign (an “X” in masking tape on Mulder’s window), and that he was a Man in Black before that was pop culture. The 1st character death I ever cared about.

If anyone wants to read a cool DC crime story using the July 4th Bicentennial as a backdrop, I highly recommend King Suckerman by George Pelecanos. It’s the best of his DC Quartet. (Still need to read The Big Blowdown though.) The Sweet Forever is good too. Shame the Devil is not.
