I switch over to Buzzr and Tattletales is just starting. Jack Albertson (Grandpa Joe from Willy Wonka, and “The Man” from Chico and the Man) is on the panel. Jack won a Tony, Emmy, and Oscar during his career. And you should watch Chico and the Man just for Freddie Prinze, who was awesome.

Yeah what else is new. I’m walking around like Fred Sanford these days.

My travel companion Bruce, out for a drive in one of my silly old cars (Trans Am) to get dinner at a really great local small town place. He was a very good boy and he did have some mashed potatoes and a little piece of chicken as a treat.

I’m extremely lucky to have been chosen by my old man Bruce. By my side always day or night. An excellent travel partner that loves the car. Still a puppy at heart even though he’s around 11. He knows when I’m feeling bad and gives me extra attention.

Perhaps ComEd shouldn’t have made all those sweetheart deals with data centers and made them pay for the actual impact they are having on the grid. Now they are requesting “Immediate Action” from us. Fuck ComEd.

Okay, these haven’t been around for decades, a lot of people won’t even remember them. I just got this pic from a friend. They are legit old school fried apple pies just like they used to make. Quote “THEY ARE DELICIOUS” @discontinuedfoods.bsky.social these might be of interest!

30 years ago today, a couple of kids rented a VFW hall and invited friends and family to help celebrate their wedding. There have been many challenges, but we managed to raise an amazing kid, and our partnership has gotten stronger and more resilient each year. I could not imagine life without her

I have a shed that has no electricity and I have no good way to get a line to it. I bought a battery and a 100 watt solar panel and wired up the inside for lights. The results were great. I finished at dusk the night before and by 9 AM the battery charged from 50 to 100%. I have working lighting!

I just gave this to my daughter, she’s been laughing a lot. 🙂 “This is great!”

You’d think with what they charge for brain surgery, they’d at least shave my entire head so I don’t look like a maniac. 🙄 Staples came out yesterday, everything is healing up, my vision is much better, and I start back on chemo tonight. That part kinda sucks but it’s keeping me alive.

Meanwhile, in Chicago… ANUS up! Photo by my partner who loved this and was very excited to share this with me.

Perhaps the “person of interest” should be the dumbass who set their gun on the toilet tank while they were shitting and then forgot it. What the fuck?

Best name in show business.

You would think common courtesy would eliminate the need for this sign, but here we are in 2026

The glass artist deserves an award for this piece.

I kinda wish these still worked on the network. I’m sure I’m looking back with rose tinted glasses, but I remember them being decent sounding, small enough to fit in your pocket, and had decent battery life.

Hey, I had my major surgery yesterday morning, two surgeons removed two soft tissue tumors, no involvement in the brain. This was not curative, as the margins would involve removing my eye and a lot more tissue. However, it will improve vision and pain and allow me to keep my eye a little longer.

Sure, the famous deep dish “Chicago” style is fine, but nobody gets that regularly. When locals want to get pizza, we order from a place that serves tavern style thin crust like this, or something slightly thicker. This is from Villa Nova in Stickney. Note the cut and the sausage distribution.

Yep this is the new normal weather in Chicago now. Weekly hail storms.

Hey, awesome! Bunch of dumb fucks at an infusion clinic at a cancer center. No doubt more than a few immunocompromised. People coughing like they have TB. Not covering their mouths. And if they are, they are touching the furniture, doors, etc. Fuck these people.

Did you see the one without the emojis???

There is a sentient burrito on my couch

State of US health care - cheaper just to die One good thing, if you can call it “good”, is that my hospital will let me pay this over time interest free. At least I don’t have to take out a loan or run up credit cards. I’d rather have the money

That is superb, reminds me of @evandorkin.bsky.social ‘s work. That kid is going places!

I got these stupid cars out of hibernation yesterday and EVERY SINGLE TIME I drive one, I get some Billy Bad Ass in a giant lifted truck, a Tesla, or today, some dipshit in a Kia SUV that wants to race me. I do enjoy doing a quick pull on them just for fun but I’m too old for that shit, lol

You’ve inspired a trip to the liquor store, lol

“I do not want to move right now”

Perhaps from the same shop, my sister in law sent this the other day

I just ordered that book the other day, along with this one: VJ: The Unplugged Adventures of MTV's First Wave

We just had that hail storm a couple days ago and the scammers are already sending out information about how they can inspect your roof and gutters and get a “free roof and gutter replacement and upgrade”. Yeah, it’s free until your insurance rate gets jacked up. My parents fell for that nonsense.
