Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake.

I generally avoid having pictures of me on the internet, but in case any of you that I don't see very often are wondering what I look like these days (or how bad my phone camera is), FEAST YOUR EYES!

@InAnihilator @NintendoAmerica It was bad on switch 1 because of performance issues. It was good on switch 2 because the hardware could handle it. Good if you like warriors games, I mean.

@InDeepGeek I suspect some savvy political spin artists realized that the number 7 was culturally important to the people of Westeros.

@Kingbingo_ Don't sell yourself short. You're our *favorite* vassal.

@dccommonsense To be fair, this constitutional disaster has been unfolding since before the constitution was written. It's just sped up since January.

@Grummz @KevinGame2013 What about the https://t.co/ECEbyW7nh6 numbers?

My neighbor's garage just exploded a little, and there are fire fighters and cops everywhere. I'm trying to decide if it's in poor taste to see if there is any damage to my property, or if it would be better to wait.

All of this to say, where hell could I possibly put this? Who has the *space*?

I think Ernest Shackleton is the closest thing I have to a non-fictional personal hero. The story of someone who led men into folly only to move heaven and earth in order to save them from his own hubris is both inspiring and humbling.

I read a few books about him years ago, and held him in high regard ever since. Endurance by Lansing was probably the best, if you have some time to kill.

For the sake of those that are having an emotional morning, I'm holding back a lot of dark humor. But, trust me, some of these goofs are pretty good.

On this election day, as I ponder the uncomfortably high likelihood of a second Trump term, I marvel at how many massive missteps the Dems had to take to let the race get this close. Like, six or seven? It was like watching Sideshow Bob step on rakes for 3 months.

Kamala, thank you, I know an election is coming, and I know about early voting. 3 mailers and 14 texts in one day is a bit much.

Kids, don't let anyone you love live in a swing state.

[Chris @homemadecalm]

@MichaelStahlke *Expletive deleted*... I'm pleased that you are well.

[Chris @homemadecalm]

@MichaelStahlke Oh, I remember that... during the Obama years, they had that big... well, F*** fest. Honestly, I think about the Secret Service, maybe once every 5 years. So, I'll just nod politely and thank you for your time.

[Chris @homemadecalm]

@MichaelStahlke *say

[Chris @homemadecalm]

@MichaelStahlke I can't honesty stay that I understand what you're saying there.

[Chris @homemadecalm]

So, China's state news is taking a noticeably pro-Israel stance in regard to the Iranian attack... and I'm still working out what that means.

[Chris @homemadecalm]

Fun fact: If you live in a swing state, and the algorithm has you tagged as independent, they really really really want you to know an election is going on.
