Tina Fey was doing the vocals and the lyrics sounded hilariously dreadful.

#Hannity text messages

The Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol released a letter to Fox News personality Sean Hannity, seeking his voluntary cooperation with their investigation. The letter the Hannity revealed several text messages he sent to Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in the lead up to the insurrection (pdf):

On December 31, 2020, Hannity sent Meadows:

>“We can’t lose the entire WH counsels office. I do NOT see January 6 happening the way he is being told. After the 6 th. [sic] He should announce will lead the nationwide effort to reform voting integrity. Go to Fl and watch Joe mess up daily. Stay engaged. When he speaks people will listen.”

On Jan. 5:

>“Im very worried about the next 48 hours.”

>“Pence pressure. WH counsel will leave.”

The Committee adds that after the attack on the Capitol, Hannity “texted to Meadows press coverage relating to a potential effort by members of President Trump’s cabinet to remove him from office under the 25th Amendment.”

On Jan. 10:

>“Guys, we have a clear path to land the plane in 9 days. He can’t mention the election again. Ever. I did not have a good call with him today. And worse, I’m not sure what is left to do or say, and I don’t like not knowing if it’s truly understood. Ideas?”

#Smoking gun

Bernard Kerik, the former New York City Police Commissioner, is cooperating with the Select Committee’s investigation pursuant to a subpoena issued in November. Kerik was one of the first members of Giuliani’s “war room” convened to plan Trump’s strategy to overturn the election.

He has reportedly turned over a trove of documents to the Committee, including a log of all the material he is claiming as protected ([pdf

To celebrate Release Week, here's a timeline of all the songs, all supported by sources. I think it could be interesting.

June 16, 2010: [From a Lover Journal] The Story Of Us is the last song Taylor writes before having a writer’s block that will end 6 months later.

• "There’s a kind of bad that gets so overpowering you can’t even write about it. When you feel pain that is so far past dysfunctional, that leaves you with so many emotions that you can’t filter them down to simple emotions to write about. That’s when you know you really need to get out."

Late December 2010: All Too Well is born during a Speak Now Tour rehearsal.

• Interview with Pop Dust: The lyric I’m most proud of on the album is from ‘All Too Well’: ‘And you call me up again just to break me like a promise / so casually cruel in the name of being honest.’ That was something I came up with while ranting during a soundcheck. I was just playing these chords over and over onstage and my band joined in and I went on a rant. Those were some of the lines I thought of. I was going through a really hard time then, and my band joined in playing, and one of the first things that I came up with, just, like, spat out, was ‘And you call me up again just to break me like a promise, so casually cruel in the name of being honest.’

February 2011: All Too Well is reworked. This is probably the Ten Minute Version.

First week of March 2011: All Too Well is edited thanks to Liz Rose.

• Liz Rose to Rolling Stone: When we wrote the song, I hadn’t heard from her in awhile. She hadn’t really been writing. I was in Nashville one day, slowly moving the last bits of junk out of my garage so I could move to Dallas. […] I was in my driveway and my phone rings, and it’s Taylor saying, ‘Man, I’ve got this thing and I really need you to help me with it. Can you write today? What are you doing today?’ [I later] drove over to Taylor’s. It was the first song she wrote for that record, I think. She had a story and she wanted to say something specific. She had a lot of information. I just let her go. She already had a melody and she started singing some words, and I started writing things down, sa

The SVS, KLH and KEFs along with the Advents

I've been into stereos and music since high school. That was a few decades ago now. Fast forward through life, having kids, no time and tight budgets....kids are now grown and we have some space and spending money.

In the summer of 2020, my wife and I moved to a house that had an obvious space to turn into a music room! While the Sonos worked great in our previous smaller home, it was time to move on to something more substantial for two channel stereo in the music room. With the encouragement of a few friends I got back into vinyl and down the rabbit hole, chasing that wonderful sound. The music room is a former carriage house and measures about 11.5" wide by 17" deep, wide open in the back, with 8' ceilings. All surfaces are wood with a large rug. I wish it was a foot or two wider but this is what we've got.

I started out with a Fluance RT-85 with the Ortofon Blue hooked up to a 10 year old Onkyo AVR with it's built-in phono pre-amp. It was a good start but not quite the sound I was looking for. I found the Ortofon too bright so I bought a Nagaoka MP-200 which was a huge upgrade. With the drastic difference in sound the Nagaoka provided I knew I had to look at and start upgrading my entire system. I did a lot of reading and research once I was fully committed to upgrading every component.

So here's the new gear I landed on in the past 8 months or so....

Vincent Audio SV-737 integrated amp (perhaps a little overkill but I wanted to buy a solid amp)

Vincent Audio PHO-701 (I replaced the stock tube with a Bremer)

Rega Planar 3 with a custom birch plinth courtesy of my friend Ben

Hana SL LOMC cartridge (I tested several cartridges before I landed on the Hana)

Our current gear along with the tried and true Advent Heritage

My speakers are Advent Heritage towers that I've had for close to 30 years now. And while I do love the sound of the Advents (full, rich and warm), there is quite a bit of cabinet resonance and I was interested to see what a decent pair of modern speakers would sound like. After reading many, many reviews I decided that roughly $2,000 US was an appropriate amount of money to spend on some good floor standing

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Do your worst!

The Premise

"How would so-and-so do if they were on a different cycle? Would they have won against different contestants?" in ANTM: Alternate Reality, we will try to answer these questions!

I randomized every model, photoshoot and challenge from America's Next Top Model to create an alternate reality with different casts and different photoshoots. You can influence the results by voting on your Call Out Order each week.

Last Episode

It's time for NYFW!

The models competed for 8 runway jobs, demonstrating 4 different walks for clients: Bombshell: sexy, effervescent; Couture: elegant, sophisticated; Edgy: confident, quirky; RTW: relatable, marketable.

Here are how many jobs each model booked:

- Alice booked 5 jobs: 2 Blue Chips (Couture, RTW) and 3 Regular (Bombshell, Edgy, RTW)
- Annaliese booked 3 jobs: 0 Blue Chips, 3 Regular (Bombshell, Edgy, RTW)
- Chantal booked 2 jobs: 0 Blue Chips, 2 Regular (Bombshell, RTW)
- Duckie booked 7 jobs: 3 Blue Chips (Bombshell, Edgy, RTW) and all 4 regular
- Elyse booked 2 jobs: 0 Blue Chips, 2 Regular (Edgy, RTW)
- Khrystyana booked 4 jobs: 0 Blue Chips, all 4 regular
- Kristin booked 0 jobs
- Liz booked 1 job: 0 Blue Chip, plus 1 regular (Couture)
- Raina booked 1 job: 0 Blue Chip, plus 1 regular (Bombshell)
- Rissikat booked 1 job: 0 Blue Chip, plus 1 regular (Couture)
- Sheena booked 1 job: 0 Blue Chip, plus 1 regular (Edgy)
- Sora booked 7 jobs: All 4 Blue Chips, plus 3 regular (Couture, Edgy, RTW)
- Stacy Ann booked 7 jobs: 3 Blue Chips (Bombshell, Couture, Edgy), plus all 4 regular

Stacy Ann is the challenge winner with the highest average score across all 4 walks, although Duckie and Sora were close behind!

For this week's photoshoot, the models shot Sedcards: simple studio photos designed to show off their look and modeling style, while also catching a designer's interest. The two photos needed to be cohesive with each other, while also showing off the model's face, style, body and posing ability.

The performance from both the photoshoot and NYFW have been combined, and best overall performance...

goes to a model who had such an incredible lead in the Sedcard,

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi
