The roll call was pretty lit! Getting DJ Cassidy was a fun touch.

So, Sinner will lose points and prize money from Cincinnati. Hm. How does a physiotherapist not know that anabolic steroids are banned? They’ve been banned since the 80s, at minimum. Also, as an athlete, shouldn’t you be asking questions about what someone else is putting on your body? The excuses of tainted beef and pasta and cocaine kisses…it’s all a bit ridiculous now.

Sorry to hear of Phil Donahue’s passing. Even today’s current iteration of daytime talk shows are part of the legacy of the Phil Donahue Show, knowing how Donahue inspired Oprah but the current crop of talk shows, from what I have seen don’t inspire that level of intimacy in dealing with current events. Today’s talk shows seem to feature talking points relayed by talking heads, while Donahue featured conversation between a host, guest and the audience, which were often an extension of the viewers at home. Seems like a bygone era now. R.I.P. Mr. Donahue.

Those who leaned toward West are likely to stay home imo. I cannot speak to what Stein voters will do. As a non subscriber (I have never had a paid subscription to the NYT) who occasionally skims/reads articles, I sensed some of these machinations between some members of the various WH staff but I wonder about the relevance of discussing this now?

This is good news in a region that has seen very little of it. Sudan to allow use of Adre border crossing for three months to facilitate aid- RIP: In Memoriam Thread
Wallace “Wally” Amos of Famous Amos Cookies has died. Wally "Famous" Amos Dies: Talent Agent-Turned-Cookie-Mogul Was 88 And yes, he also hosted a show called Learn To Read. He really was a true example of how someone could adapt, adjust and pivot in their life and career.- RIP: In Memoriam Thread
From time to time, her films pop into my mind. R.I.P.- The Politics Thread
Insane. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to meet with Kamala Harris to discuss Cabinet job- The Politics Thread
Biden has earned the right to recite his list of “I told you so’s”. Unfortunately, it’s unlikely that media will give this as much ink and attention as they did carping on his age and his son Hunter.- The Politics Thread
Someone posted some audio from yesterday’s debacle between Tech bro and TFG and man, it turned my stomach to hear him ogle Harris, comparing her to Melania. Only in his dreams.🤢- As The World Turns Discussion Thread
Honestly, that is very considerate of you. I appreciate it. Seems like there has been a trickle of former soap stars starting their own YouTube channels. I think Scott may have one, although I haven’t seen it lately and he may not upload often. If only more would do as Patricia Bruder Debrovner has done and post a few complete episodes, maybe we could piece together a few of these missing episodes from the show’s heights.- 2024 Summer Olympics
Because I couldn’t have been the only one who thought SNL skit when I saw that “performance” at the Olympics.- The Politics Thread
Haha. One X staffer said that there was a “99% chance” that Musk was lying about there being a DDOS attack. https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/12/24219121/donald-trump-elon-musk-interview-x-twitter-crashes- The Media/Journalism Thread
Who is undecided at this point? I really don’t believe anyone who has been alive during Trump’s administration and the pandemic can truly and honestly be undecided. Not anyone who has lived her in the U.S. Nah.- BTG: History, Behind the Scenes Articles & Photos

Harris is still VP with a job, although Vance may not feel like he has work to do in the Senate. Also, Trump who was having rallies even when he wasn’t running for an elected office now puts in very few appearances on the campaign trail?- Guiding Light Discussion Thread
When Jerry verDorn was on those reunion specials, I am not sure they had clips. I would have loved to see he and Maeve and Melissa talk about the dynamics at work in those scenes. Sadly, I doubt those reunion streams have this. If you see something like this, please let me know. I would love to see it!- As The World Turns Discussion Thread

Trump stealing music of a man whom was known for composing and performing Southern soul music, some of the Blackest of Black music…that Isaac Hayes? The man nicknamed “Black Moses” Isaac Hayes?? For why?!- Guiding Light Discussion Thread
I don’t think I got to see these in real time, it was probably years later but every time I see them, I can’t help but think, man, are these courtroom scenes compelling! It would have been nice to do one of those reunion livestreams where both Maeve and Melissa talk about what was going on in and behind the scenes on the days these scenes were filmed!- 2024 Summer Olympics
They may have right-wing zealots terrorizing migrants and immigrants in a daily xenophobic rage but the Brits sure do know how to generate those Kodak©️moments! - The Politics Thread
