Maybe Josh Allen should have slid down at the one yard line? —- Or not.

I have Rokus, not Amazon Fire, but have had the same question with pre-set buttons on the remote. The placement seems almost random. I have several remotes and the pre-set buttons are different on each, and of course, they're not programmable. So they rarely get used.

My unscientific theory is that he, the way he conflated Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi, in that moment confused Kamala Harris with Nikki Haley, and now won't admit it. I didn't learn much new about RFK Jr., but I appreciated John putting the word out there. Like the MAGAs, his supporters are unfathomable. Can we never learn the lesson of elevating an unqualified nepo baby to a position they don't deserve? Anyone who doesn't like cheesecake cannot be trusted, ever.

I was working a long-term contract for the hospital in Oxnard in 2013, had been staying at the Residence Inn for months, when I was abruptly forced to vacate and find another hotel so that Dall-ass could take my room. As if I didn’t have enough reasons to hate them…

My library offers free 72 hour access to the Times. So every three days or so, I click on my bookmarked link with code and get a new "subscription."

I get my news primarily from NYT and Washington Post, and they've pointed it out, but for them, it's preaching to the choir. I would be stunned if Roger Ailes's evil spawn tentacles have ever mentioned that Congress had worked out a bilateral deal but TFG ordered them to shitcan it.

They need to point out that the Congress had a done deal, agreed on by both parties and both Houses, to get the border in order. The orange guy told his minions to squash the deal so he could continue to use it as a wedge issue against Democrats. That doesn't get brought up often enough. At the rate the orange felon's going, his personal courts going have his 93 felonies down to cribbing someone's lunchbox in the third grade. Ted Cruz is an immigrant himself who happens to have an American mother. TFG is the son of a Scottish immigrant and the grandson of a German immigrant who was a draft dodging brother owner. They just all want to pull the rug up behind them.

I finally took the plunge on Peacock just in time for DD to watch the gymnastics trials. Wasn't sure, other than Top Chef reruns, if I'd find anything really worth watching. Saw the first season of the US version of The Traitors, and am watching the Australian version now. Tried Below Deck and the first season was tiring. Looks like the second season isn't much better. How many times can you recycle lust, drunkenness, unprofessionalism, and resentment? It'll be a long year.

Isn't that Jordan Klepper's entire schtick? Observe them in their natural habitat, violate the Prime Directive by bringing them news from the real world, and watch absolutely nothing change? John is fascinated by really strange things that make me wish, please dog, let the show be over.

I noted the disclaimer that the show was taped yesterday, but wasn't John particularly prescient about what was going to happen today? No matter who gets nominated, I don't think John will be going for a repeat of his 2016 "deeply flawed" comments about Hillary Clinton where he regularly damned her with faint praise. I tried studiously to avoid the entire RNC this week, but then my daughter made me watch Jon Stewart's mockery of it and now I watched John Oliver's mockery of it. Mockery though it is, they still make me reach for my anti-anxiety medications.

Looks like Kanopy has it, too, at least from my main library. Had trouble finding it using Roku, but found it searching for Ken Burns Collections on the Kanopy website on my computer. No tickets required for the series, either.

I'm not ready for some football. It's 110 in the shade and that's the good part of the weather. Way too early to think about how Big Blue is going to mail it in this year. Last year's Hard Knocks was interesting because for once they booked a creditable team. YouTube TV wants $450 for Sunday Ticket. Not a chance in hell. Never paid close to that much in all the years I had it with DirecTV. They always were able to work some deal to keep me a customer, and the last few years we listed my DD as the user so she could get me the college student rate. I'll still have to subscribe to something to get NFL Red Zone. Probably Sling Blue, while I have the local games playing on my tablet or something. ESPN is on Sling Orange but they replay their games that night on NFL Network which is on Blue. One thing about DirecTV streaming Sunday Ticket was that it was pretty easy to toggle between ticket games and the local networks.

That's too bad. Here in AZ, I have ten different library cards, although not all of them offer Hoopla and/or Kanopy. I don't know the answer to your question, but if your friend doesn't care about actually using the library card, couldn't you just sign out of your Hoopla account and sign in with his, add the shows you like, and keep watching?

Ah, you are correct. I changed the settings for the Roku and my Hulu captions are now smaller. Of course, the captions on all my other apps are now teeny-tiny. But at least I know it's an option. Thanks.
