Apparently today is Air Conditioning Appreciation Day. So cheers to those who celebrate.

It’s the weekend. Time to get crunk, mofos.

Since today is the last day of June, please enjoy this rollicking song from the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical Carousel…

I’m tired and I couldn’t think of a good intro for today. So here…

For anyone else who cares, we officially got our new Superman and Lois Lane yesterday. David Corenswet is a relative unknown — as he should be — and he definitely has the look (honestly, he could be Henry Cavill’s younger brother), but I’m mainly excited about Rachel Brosnahan. If you’ve seen The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, you know how perfect she’ll be as Lois Lane. Also, you should go read All-Star Superman.

Happy 38th birthday to James Hook, the retired Welsh rugby player, and not the fictional pirate captain.

G’day, gents! Happy National Chocolate Pudding Day to one and all!

It’s the weekend, folks. Stay cool. Grab a beer (or several). Hop in the pool. Go to the movies. Whatever.

On this day in the year 1314, Robert the Bruce and his Scottish rebels met the English army led by King Edward II at Bannockburn, just south of Stirling.  It ended up being a decisive victory for Scotland and marked a major turning point in the war, which ended 14 years later with the restoration of Scottish independence under the Treaty of Edinburgh-Northampton. For this reason, the Battle of Bannockburn is widely considered a landmark moment in Scottish history. It’s also the final scene in Braveheart, which is a terribly inaccurate yet kickass movie.

New music alert! TERRA FIRMA, the sophomore album by Nick Perri & The Underground Thieves, is more than just another blues-rock record. It’s an ever-evolving soundscape with shades of Led Zeppelin, the Who, the Allman Brothers, and latter-day Beatles. It’s prog meets roots rock meets psychedelia, but with an epic, almost theatrical feel. Like… it’s really f***in’ good. Go check it out.
