Bitunlockedered

Someone has discovered a way to get around Bitlocker encryption, and somehow that wasn't the worst thing I read this morning:

• Have you ever noticed how Republicans wreck the economy every time they have power? Aren't you tired of that?
• Like, for example, how the OAFPOTUS and his droogs have run up the national debt to 100% of GDP?
• This is what happens when people return to believing demons walk among us because nothing says "modern America" like a return to the 14th Century.
• And because of the OAFPOTUS's inability to get through the day without drooling, China really doesn't have to worry about the Thucydides Trap that Chinese premier Xi Jinpeng mentioned during the summit last weekend.
• Of course, my party can't seem to grasp the urgency of fixing democracy before turning to our pet policies, so there's that.
• The Washington Post helpfully provides "seven charts that explain why the job market is so tough right now," in case you were wondering.

Finally, Sam Sianis, who owned the Billy Goat Tavern of "cheezborger" fame, has died at 91. Thanks to the original cast of Saturday Night Live coming almost entirely from Second City,

It was at this subterranean location on Lower Michigan that Mr. Sianis became famous for telling customers in his thick Greek accent: “Cheezborger, cheezborger, cheezborger. Cheeps, no fries, Coke, no Pepsi,” thanks to a 1978 Saturday Night Live skit that mimicked him.

Not to mention, "Mr. Sianis’ uncle, William Sianis, was behind the legendary “Curse of the Billy Goat” that some believed plagued the Cubs for decades."

Now if Butters could only understand that the thunderstorm outside will not actually hurt her, I might get through the next week without washing every towel I own. Even Cassie rolled her eyes.
