…my first thought: doonesbury was kind of the granddaddy of the genre…

…down to 49% now as the votes keep coming in; the russian propaganda apparatus reaches deep but not yet that deep…

“Stick with the prod.”

…by ‘attack’ are we talking signal-jamming, hacking, or physical disruption?..

…i disliked a lot of the music then but i enjoyed the shared cultural experience of legitimately popular broadcast media, and retrospectively it’s a window into a world which no longer exists…

…i mean, people pay restaurant money for ramen these days, too: every peasant food gets its day in due time…

…it definitely changes when used to top meatloaf…

🤣

…that’s - odd…

…delicious staple, love it with spinach leaves and coarse-chopped roma tomatoes on top…

…sunshine sandwich!..
