It’s true that a stopped clock is right twice a day, but what about a clock that loses just 3 seconds every day? How many millennia does it take until it’s right a second time?

the thing that’s both #interesting and #shameless about home heating systems is that the heat and/or cooling only works in 2 degrees increments

Question about #masto : can you follow an emoji? Like I just want to see posts where someone used the 💯 emoji?

Not a problem if not — certainly don’t build a damn feature to do it — was just curious.

The essential character of #StarTrek is that it’s at least 90% cheese. Watching #STV #theFinalFrontier in advance of an upcoming #GreatestGen show (SO STOKED!) I’m surprised to recall that this particular movie exceeds approved dietary recommendations.

It’s 💯 cheezy.

I tend to jump around on tv shows, but recently I’ve been going back through both “the mentalist” and “agents of shield”. Strange coincidence: in the ep of AoS I watched yesterday there was a featured ep guest actor playing the leader of a biker gang. Today in the next ep of “mentalist” the same featured guest actor played the proprietor of a gold-mining equipment store.

I’m sure odd coincidences like that happen EVERY DAY but I just wanted to shout it out this time.

I’m always reluctant to be optimistic, but the news out of #ukraine about the #wagnergroup is making me giddy.

I suspect that in the cold light of tomorrow’s news cycle my optimism will prove unfounded, but for now: GOOD night.

Was thinking that #startek is kinda unique in the way a guest star can play one character, then a few eps later, can play a totally different character. #jeffreyCombs, for example. Or pick your fave.

Are there other tv shows where they have guest stars who played multiple different characters, but without the character-distinguishing loaf?

I’m imagining a show where they not only do that, but they play it for laughs, as a running gag.

Suspect some Brit sitcoms are all over that.

in a grand, universal sense, is it right that the people who tortured us in high school gave us the strength to survive?

consult with me next time, it’s a trade off. we should talk

As much as I worry about this, I’m not sure the alternative has any legs. We’re being a set up for the second civil war. I think I know who’s behind it, but that’s madness.

I love that “fiscal conservative” #Republicans have made it a non-negotiable demand that the IRS cease its hounding of tax cheats.

Feeling #empowered and #emboldened for next April.

Just sayin’

We’re all familiar with the #awful phrase, “beat [someone] like a rented mule”. And also familiar with the similar phrase “beat [someone] like a redheaded stepchild”.

Is there also a phrase that says you would “beat [someone] like a rented redhead?”

How about “beat [someone] like a rented stepchild”?

Phrases are #awful. Just sayin. Stop saying all phrases. All phrases, everywhere.

late to view the week’s multi-pods, but in Tuesday’s ep of @GreatestTrek i felt so disappointed in B&A not recognizing the reference to #TOS story inspo #HarlanEllison.

I have no mouth but i must scream:

#KHAAAAAAAAAN!!!!

Wait, wait. Does this mean that GQP congresspeople will be saying that we need stricter gun laws and background checks to prevent miscreants like… checks notes… Hunter Biden from having access to guns? What am I missing?

EXCELLENT RE-POD: just watched the streaming #syboktacular— it wasn’t the same as the boston show i attended, but was excellent in its own unique la-specific way.

bring on #phaseTwo !

Hooray! With the debt ceiling bill, America is not a third world country. On the other hand, oligarchs still rule. So maybe: second world country? Just sayin.

I’m confused about something in last week’s “Fig Newton Planets” ep of #greatestgen. A & B were talking about Casper mattresses making cryo-beds, then one of them made an offhand comment about what happens when one of the podcasters gets too greedy

Dear @GreatestTrek, as we dig into #stvoy season6, I simultaneously dread the coming of #stent, and recall my corresponding and identical dread w/r/t the impending immanence of voyager.

As you were. Keep on keepin on.

of all the things you never want to hear a doctor say, at the top of everyone’s list is: “we have some good news and some bad news.”

because there’s never “good” good news. it’s only ever “so-so” good news, while the bad news is always #awful

NYT article says that we could save the world with the materials in our old cell phones. okay, so where do we send them?

i’m curious whether my 2 1/2 masto-followers have an opinion: when someone sends you a text with a link to something hidden behind a paywall, and you don’t have that service and don’t want to pay for yet another $20 a month thing, what is the least offensive response?

• oh that’s nice (though you didn’t see it)
• sorry, i don’t subscribe to that service (honesty)
• new phone, who dis?

(sorry, too lazy to learn how to create polls on here.)
