That cat with the blond hair that appears part way into the clip, I think was a regular
Also, didn’t I watch this back then at 4 in the afternoon (est)?
POV: It’s 1967, you turn on the TV and American Bandstand is playing “Somebody to Love” by Jefferson Airplane and you can’t help but dance.
Best. Day. Ever.
@WhiteHouse@Manhattanpeachy We are, as a nation, a laughingstock to the world directly as a result of this man’s reckless ego, an insecure ego that causes him to surround himself with a full complement of spectacularly inept and craven people.
@tcboyle Dm me if you’re in need of a skull ring. Would be an honour to connect with the writer of World’s End, a book that seared my brain in the later years of the last century.
@MacCocktail I’m not well a known, high profile guy but I have long made a practice, I like to think as on brand, of giving away my just emptied martini glasses.
@tcboyle Search info about the airport, it’s very entertaining. From the horse sculpture that crushed its maker, the supposed hidden bunker where President would flee to during nuclear threat, paintings with hidden cult symbols. Get out while you still can.
Ways to deal with organic oil stains on washable clothing:
— Pretreat the stain with dishwashing liquid, such as Dawn. Dishwashing liquid contains surfactants that emulsify oil into tiny droplets and lift them from the fibers, allowing them to be washed away in the laundry.
When applying, add a little bit of dish soap — don't go haywire — and then tamp with a brush. Tamping means you tap the cloth a little. This helps get the liquid into the fibers. Alternatively, you can rub the liquid in with your fingers. Don't scrub the surface too aggressively with something like a stiff-wired brush because you can ruin the surface of the fabric.
— You can also pretreat the stain with an enzymatic stain remover. Enzymes break stains apart, so they become smaller, more water‑soluble molecules that can be washed away. However, each type of enzyme is only effective for a specific type of stain. So when you apply a stain remover, you're relying on a mixture of enzymes and hoping something in there will be useful for your situation.
For oil stains, look for enzymatic stain removers that contain lipase, which works well on natural fats and oils, such as those from food. Note that it does not work well with petroleum-based oils, such as what you'd get from working on your car.
Zout's "Laundry Stain Remover" and Dad Mode's "Deep Stain Remover" both have lipase.
— After pre-treating the stain, let it sit for an hour or so, then wash with liquid laundry detergent. You can repeat this process a few times.
— If this doesn't work, soak the garment for a few hours in Oxiclean. This is an oxygen-based bleach that contains sodium percarbonate, which oxidizes organic stain molecules and breaks them apart.
Unlike chlorine bleach, oxygen-based bleaches are safe on colors. It's basically like applying hydrogen peroxide. However, it's not safe on all fibers — fine on cotton, not good on silk. Check the labels before using.
— If the garment is very important to you, it's always best to send the work to a professional. IMO, the two best dry-cleaners in the United States are Rave FabriCARE (in Arizona) and Jeeves NY (in New York). Both companies will take mail-ins. IMO, you should not do anything to the garment before sending it in, as there's a chance you could make the situation worse.
Zachary at Jeeves also runs a great laundry account on Instagram, which you can find at the handle jeeves_ny.
Note that different types of stains require different solutions. The above is only for organic oil-based stains on clothes you can throw into a wet wash. Blood, sweat, and other types of stains will have to be treated differently.
On a dress shirt that I’d washed and dried with an oil stain, I tried this.
Spray WD40 on the stain. Let absorb then on a piece of cardboard, scrub plenty of baking soda into stain to absorb WD40. Treat area with Shout and wash. If needed, repeat the Shout/wash.

@SonnyCrockett92 Beginning with season 2, Vice used my buckle designs. I’d get a call a few weeks before shooting and get colour choices, etc. Mostly seen on the bad guys. Though,apparently, Tubbs wore one under every suit. My moment was seeing Frank Zappa wearing one of my belts.
Just two months to go!
