OK, people, OK. Now that it has been confirmed by MSNBC columnist Marisa Kabas that George Santos used to be a drag performer, let’s just remember as we craft our jokes that drag performers are not the punchline. The GOP getting duped into welcoming a former drag performer into their house after attacking drag performers IS the punchline. That they are either hypocrites, stupid, or both—that’s the punchline. All right? All right. Carry on.

I was watching The Pale Blue Eye on Netflix and thoroughly enjoying it (a solid and moody period mystery) and the guy who plays Poe is so great, but I kept saying, “I know him from something else, but I can’t place it.”

So, after the movie, I googled him and literally shouted, “Holy shit!” so loud I scared my dog.

Frank Olesby’s Strange Behavior

Many years ago, I wrote a serialized short story called Frank Olesby’s Strange Behavior right here on the tumblrs.

It’s what people like to call a character study, I guess. I just call it a story — a story about a guy having a midlife crisis that leads him to do some uncharacteristic things.

Here are all 12 parts, in order. (Don’t worry, they’re all pretty short.)

I don’t think I’d mind people so much if they just weren’t the effing worst.

This lady just asked me the date while she’s sitting in front of a computer.

I just made up a number. Not even a real one.

Take that, villain.

We’re at a Mexican restaurant and I’m two Cadillac margaritas in and as I was leaving the restroom I heard someone say to their companion, “Hey, I know that guy.” And then they called to me, “Hey, David!” and I kept walking like I didn’t hear them because nothing good would come of that kind of interaction.

Sure, all siblings get into fights now and again. But imagine how, when they were young, the Coen Brothers fights must have been so wry and character driven.

I know this whole thing about Joe Biden having classified documents seems hypocritical, but all of the papers relate directly to his special task force to eliminate malarkey.

New Project!

I’ve had an unworn jean jacket for years since a friend left it in my care and then told me to “just keep it.” I decided a couple of weeks ago to truly make it mine. So, here’s what I did:

1. Cut up and old band shirt

2. Folded the edges under

3. Pinned the edges

4. Put on fancy lighted finger shop glove thingies to see better

5. Sewed it

6. Sewed it again to reinforce the seam

7. Checked finished work

8. Wore badass new jean jacket
