    I have learned that in addition to Thatcher’s death anniversary, something of equal cultural significance also occurred on this date:



    Come for the cowbell, stay for Jimmy Fallon failing to hide his laughter in the middle of the sketch

    Dude always broke, he had zero chill

    I think he was the reason they started writing breaks into sketches, him and Sanz.

    I remember some documentary or something on SNL and Lorne HATES breaking, but Fallon just made it seem entertaining I guess, and now it's like a staple of the show.

    are YOU on the beer list?

    He inexplicably never broke during his own sketches.

    Astounding.

    Now reading historical newspapers. Workplace safety in the 1870s:
    On Saturday forenoon, about half past ten o'clock, Joseph Murray, about 64 years of age, labourer, who resided at 49 1/2 Piccadilly Street, Anderston, Glasgow, lost his life by falling from the deck into the hold of a ship in course of construction in the shipbuilding yard at Scotstoun, near Partick, occupied by Charles Connell & Co. It appears that Murray was employed in collecting the bolts which were lying about the vessel where the riveters were at work, and was in the act of crossing a plank which was supported by the iron beams of the vessel, when, imaging from the spring of the plank that it was about to slip, he took a false step to the side, and was precipitated headforemost into the hold, falling on his head. His skull was completely fractured, and he only survived a few minutes. Dr Cameron of Whiteinch was promptly called, but ere his arrival life was extinct. Murray, who was a quiet, inoffensive man, has left a widow and grown up family.

    That is a cut of an old viral video mixed with new video with maybe the same people. I can't tell if those are actually the same people.

    the reunion of me and a fine bottle of Scotch

    If it's the reunion, then it's after you've already drank it, right?

    I am familiar with this reunion.

    I read a post saying that although the Spanish Flu killed more people than COVID, and although the population was much smaller then, the relative increase in risk from COVID is actually higher--because back then people just died all the time for other reasons, too. Nowadays, a lot less of that.

    Do I attract crazy people, or do I just not repel them as strongly as I should?



    The coworker who kidnapped me last year calls me every day and I never answer because ew gross phone calls, but also who calls people?

    I think she’s about to get fired

    I tried so many times over the years to like Scotch and I just don't have a taste for it.

    I've only liked one whiskey, which I tried during an impromptu tasting session in Cork airport

    None of my whiskey/whisky drinking friends liked it, so I guess my preferences for whiskey run to "doesn't taste like whiskey normally tastes"

    I only like Scotch whisky as part of an Old Fashioned or Rusty Nail

    Honestly I thought the Thomas the Tank Engine version was the real meme, but the original cybergoth dance video has way more views.

    I don't think I've ever actually watched the original video.

    Had a talk with my wife the other night about how I'd like to finally try to work on my sleep deprivation and start going to bed at like 10ish (her sleep schedule is more like midnight to nine).

    Last night, at 11:30pm, she starts tearfully talking about how she'll try to give me some space today because she doesn't know what else to do to help

    and as I'm trying to be comforting I'm thinking pls

    pls

    I just want to sleep.
