Good morning from the United States, where an entire political party is pretending that a conspiracy to upend an election is somehow protected by the First Amendment #uspol

As I build my breakfast...my mind thinks....

Healthy Steel cut oats
Ground flax seed because it has omega 3 in it
Dried oats for a healthy crunch
Dried berries because of health and taste
Chia seeds cuz...

F it...why lie...I'm old.

In my heart I want biscuits and gravy, chicken fried steak with eggs over easy, bacon, sausage,pancakes.

But my heart will stop if I eat that...so my ode to grains n berry bfast is what I need to do. My heart thanks me but my Id is flipping me off.

I would organize my thoughts but I'm afraid they would form a union and demand benefits.

I'm listening to the The Complete Collection of Sherlock Holmes on Audible.

Sounds like I'm an adult, doesn't it?

You might want to put a pin in that thought....

I'm on The Sign of Four. In it, Sherlock tells Watson to go to someone and get a bloodhound named Toby.

I think, "omg Toby from The Great Mouse Detective! " and a chorus of Ratigan fills my head.

It doesn't take a lot to peel back the thin adult veneer to reveal the child underneath.

THREAD

The latest filing by Dominion Voting Systems in its defamation suit against Fox nails something critics have long argued for.

Fox is not a news organization. It's something else.

But what is this other thing? In this thread, I will try to answer that.

Next slide, please. 1/

Q: What's Duke Ellington, without that swing?

A: Duke Ellington was a legendary jazz composer, pianist, and bandleader who is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of American music. One of the key elements of Ellington's music was his unique sense of swing, which he used to great effect in his compositions and arrangements.

Without the swing that was so integral to Ellington's music, it is difficult to imagine what his music would sound like. Swing is a rhythmic quality that is characterized by a propulsive, syncopated feel that is both energetic and relaxed at the same time. Without this essential element, Ellington's music would likely sound very different and might not have achieved the same level of success and critical acclaim that it did during his lifetime.

In short, Duke Ellington without his swing would be a very different artist, and his music would not be the same without this defining element of his style.

“How was I to know he was a vampire?”
“The exquisite fashion sense, the pallid, cold skin, the fangs?”
“I thought he was a broken soul with vitamin D deficiency. That’s why I got the sunlight-emulating lightbulbs!”
“Oh well. Help me with the ashes.”
