The late Harry Belafonte and Sidney Poitier were friends for more than 70 years. They met at The American Negro Theatre when both were 20 — Poitier was a janitor and Belafonte was a stagehand. Belafonte went on to be the first Black Emmy Award winner, while Poitier became the first Black man to win a Best Actor Oscar. Here's a look back at this deep and enduring friendship.

Joe Biden: "Let's finish the job."

Jenn: "I'm still waiting on you to start it."

Full disclosure: Yes, I voted for him. Didn't want to, but I did it. The alternative was for this country to go down a dark fascist path, one we're seeing play out on the state level. I'll vote for him again, even if I don't want to, becuase the alternative will by the erasure of the trans population at the federal level....

For the first time TO Nintendo instead of FROM Nintendo: "Chump don't want the help, chump don't get the help."

Guildhall Studios' Sea of Legends is available again! And I worked on it! Go read some of Jenn's first paid writing content, and, you know, get a good game while you're at it!

Gonna try the struan bread AGAIN. But this time really closely monitor the oven. I don't think the yeast was overworked, but the oven cooked the bread too quickly causing the collapse.

Plus that bread was REALLY REALLY good, and wouldn't mind another two weeks of that. :D

I was fired from the Texas Department of Transportation in 2002 over shit like this. You'd think in twenty years there'd be some headway. But no. Just more back sliding.

I guess I have to repeat this so I don't get @ with "Don't be naive, Canada has problems too, you know:" I'm well aware, but still glad we got permanent residence in BC. No place is perfect, but I feel safer there. So far, no insurrection, no daily mass shootings, and, well, the chart below.

I prefer it to the accelerating fascism here, at least for now. And with that👇

Now we wait for the inevitable Video Game Tie In for the Super Mario Bros. Movie by a third party with maybe three games under their belt who didn't quite understand the movie and translated it badly to the Playstation 5.

I don't remember the original Tiny Toons Adventures being so Acme-Loo centered. At least not after the first season or two. Still, looking forward to this. :)

Ingredients for those who'd like to try it. It's a very different flavor and might be an acquired taste, but I love it, personally:

12 cups Watermelon cubed
24-30 Mint leaves
6 tablespoons Lemon juice
1.5 tablespoon Sugar/Sucralose (optional, if the watermelon isn't sweet enough)
1.5 teaspoon Roasted cumin powder
3 teaspoon Himalayan salt
0.38 teaspoon Black pepper

Run through a blender until smooth.
