I must admit, "Boy George Departs Jesus Christ Superstar After AI-Generated Pro-Israel Song" is not a headline I expected to read today. Bill Griffith continues to be left behind by reality.

Reviews have been generally favourable. #FilmSky

Online Melania review: "I just saw the movie at a sold out theater in Huntington Beach. When the credits rolled, the whole audience erupted in a 35 minute standing ovation. Every woman in the theater was crying. Every man in the theater jizzed in his pants. Everybody then started speaking in tongues. They guy in front of me shouted "I don't deserve to see a film this pure" and took his own life right then and there. Melania then burst through the door with Brett Ratner, who was of course holding shrimp cocktail in one hand and furiously jerking off with the other. She shouted "they love our film" and he screamed "your husband rapes children and nobody will ever do anything about it" and they both laughed and everybody in the theater laughed with them and they all laughed so hard that everybody started shitting and eventually they all drowned in their own shit. I managed to escape. Five stars."

Last night I dreamt that my wife and I kept running into Frank Gorshin while we were out running errands. With the world disintegrating into a dysfunctional cesspool, it's comforting to know that my hippocampus still sets aside bandwidth for what's important. #TVSky #Batman

Two of my favourite activities for one low price.

A vintage photo of a church in Bardstown, Kentucky, with a sign that reads "St. Thomas Satanic Exorcism, Wednesday, August 7th, All the Fried Chicken You Can Eat for Fifty Cents, Served 5 to 8pm". An American flag is attached to the sign.

When I hear Canadians complain about their taxes, I wonder whether they've seriously considered the alternative. #Canada #HealthCare #HealthInsurance

Text from a Reddit post: "We are 60 and 62, live in Washington State. We have a silver plan. Our current premium is $2,726 of which we receive a federal subsidy of $1,409 and are responsible for $1,317 per month. We each have a $2,000 deductible plus copays for most visits.

I haven't audited our health care use last year but we probably received about $2,000 in insurance payments and spent about $1,500 out-of-pocket on doctor visits.

Our new premium will be $4,103, an increase of over 50%. Because of the cliff being re-implemented next year, we are income restricted to $84,000 (which includes what we spend on all federal and property taxes, about 20% of the $84k) if we are still to receive any ACA subsidies.

If we were to pay this new premium and received the same federal subsidy as we are currently receiving, our share of the annual $49,236 premium would be $32,328 which represents almost half of our remaining post tax income.

Clearly this is untenable for us. Not sure what we will do. We'll know more tomorrow (or whenever the new plan pricing is available) but we will not be continuing on with our current silver plan.

EDIT: The purpose of this post was to explain my situation as it relates to the ACA and next year's premiums. It was not to complain or elicit sympathy. "

This is my dog, Günther. He got throat cancer and I had to put him down about thirty years ago, but I still dream about him frequently. Last night he was ignoring me while chasing down and killing a beaver. #DogSky #DogsOfBlueSky

Last night I was digging through a shoe box of old photos and found this one from prom night, 1977. I lost touch with Lois after the convenience store holdup. I wonder if she still likes to play Cribbage.

It would seem that yesterday's confusion over whether the person who murdered the Nazi had been apprehended was due to the fact that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is now run by a complete fucking idiot.

"White Americans feel that happy songs are happy and sad songs are sad, and that is exactly the way most white Americans sing them, sounding so helplessly fatuous that one dare not speculate on the temperature of the deep freeze from which issue their brave and sexless little voices." -James Baldwin

Sometimes when I feel despair with the state of the human race, it comforts me to remember that Orrin Hatch is still dead.

Lincoln's greatest error was permitting white southerners to remain citizens. They and their descendants should have been denied suffrage and offered work as servants, maids, and train porters. Those with rhythm could have been allowed to work in vaudeville. America would be a better place today.

This is why there is no hope. Actually, I take that back. There are a lot of reasons why there is no hope. #Murkowski #CorruptScumbags #sociopathy

A new provision allowing "individuals in a noncontiguous state" to be exempt from enforcing new work requirements imposed on SNAP, formerly known as food stamps, appeared aimed at mollifying Ms. Murkowski of Alaska. Her state would be hit with billions of dollars in nutrition assistance costs as a result of the legislation, and she had cited the provision as one of her chief concerns. The bill also includes new health provisions designed to benefit Alaska, as well as new tax benefits for fishermen in the state's waters.
