Since many were wondering, it’s not A.I! I play both roles. I just altered the pitch of Amanda’s voice. Was quite a feat to book her. Seems like she’s everywhere!

I'm touched by all who reached out about yesterday's episode, concerned I had a brain tumor or had radically changed the podcast format. In fact, it was in honor of April Fool's Day, a holiday that is increasingly difficult to tell from any other day.

@walterkirn @paloaltogreen2 I listened to you on the BEE podcast last weekend, which was from a few years ago, and you were talking about a travel book with him - same book you're working on finishing now?

@paloaltogreen2 I'm writing as hard as I can so I can spread my media wings before too long.

This week in haters:
I'm hiding advanced Parkinson's.
I went insane when America This Week ended.
I'm wasted drunk.
I'm paid by Israel.
I'm a CIA agent licensed to leak secret scripts of future events.
Fun platform.

@BridgetPhetasy "We didn’t have the ability to get weed and food delivered to us"
But sometimes had to sit uncomfortably on the gross couch of the skeezy dealer guy long enough to be polite, fairly certain the cops were going to bust in any second, waiting for him to hand over your bag.

@jameszimmermann @ElaineAryn My ears aren't trained enough to identify it, but the chord on the last word in this phrase, "When will you be MIIINE", gives me goosebumps.

@ElaineAryn So glad I saw them at an outdoor concert in 2003. I was a little late, and as I walked over the hill of the amphitheater lawn, they were just starting Aja. It was magical.

@amandafortini @SubRosaMagick I knew a guy who really liked 'fisticuffs.' Feels like it could be on this list.

@SubRosaMagick Yes. People who read use them all the time.

Public schools in Boston are teaching kids how to protest our President with signs and chants. This isn’t teaching. It’s indoctrination. Our tax dollars should never pay for something like this!!!

@realsashastone I do, I used it heavily. There was just no other way to get some of the obscure stuff, and they seemingly had everything.
I wish I'd spent some time working at a video store. Always looked fun to me.
English
For real. Although I once worked at a video store before Blockbuster came along and wiped it out. It was a slippery slope. Remember when Netflix would mail us DVDs?

@realsashastone I miss the days when I could go to work on Wednesday and half the guys on the factory floor actually SAW Grizzly Man because it came out the day before and they grabbed it at the video store on the way home.
English
@walterkirn Not knowing what will happen now sounds pretty good to me.

I agree with her!
(And that will be my only April Fool's joke.)

Don't you miss the days when the weirdest guy in American culture was Grizzly Man Timothy Treadwell? Now, it's like everyone.

"It's a funny feeling being taken under the wing of a dragon. It's warmer than you'd think"
That's how I feel about party affiliations, movements, ideologies, etc. - bet it feels great and I don't want the temptation. 2024 was the closest I ever felt, but I've had my cold shower.
English
No, I haven't enjoyed it. I am now officially politically homeless (tm @BridgetPhetasy).
James Lindsay, anti-Communist@ConceptualJames
Have you enjoyed this month-long display of the most disgusting anti-American, unpatriotic slop ever from our allegedly tough and solid "America First" media apparatchiks? I know I haven't. Weak, unrealistic, seditious, entitled, fearful, crying, demoralizing, and pathetic.
English
@annbauerwriter I mean, if you're not butt naked, are you really even naked at all? And who's this Buck guy, anyway?!
English
I'm as English major-y as you get, but I'll ride at dawn to protect "butt naked," which is the better, more descriptive phrase
Merriam-Webster@MerriamWebster
Not to be THAT dictionary, but… It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’ It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’ It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’ It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’ It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

@BadFilmTakes1 And surprisingly moving for what I suspect was meant to be, to some degree, a pastiche.

I'm currently very addicted to the Twin Peaks soundtrack. It's so dreamy.

Dear journalists -- right, left, doesn't matter. You have to read @Jacob__Siegel's book The Information State. We need people in government to hold hearings on everything that is in this book. You must pay attention. amazon.com/Information-St…
