I hate when anything starts with 'You know you're old when...'

 But the reality is, as we get older we spend entirely too much time trying to remember shit we shouldn't have to...  
We can't remember where our car keys are or why we just walked in to the living room, but turn the radio on, and bingo - every word of every song.
 
And then reality sets in and we realize this album was released 
61 years ago today. Perspective's a bitch, ain't it?

Tennessee's governor has signed laws banning drag performances in front of children and restricting medical treatment for transgender youth. 
 
Civil rights and LGBT groups vowed to sue to stop the medical treatment measure from taking effect on 1 July. Violators of the new drag law, meanwhile, face nearly a year in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Governor Bill Lee enacted the laws as questions were asked about an old photo apparently of him in women's clothing. I often wonder if I can remember doing something stupid once when I was younger.

A nonpartisan watchdog review found "substantial reason to believe that she accepted impermissible gifts" related to a fashion event. The probe centres on the payments for the dress she rented to attend the prestigious Met Gala in 2021. The lawmaker has denied any wrongdoing.

Yeah - here's another thing no one will ever experience again.

Love it or hate it, MLB's new pitch clock is going to completely change the way games are played this season. 
We have already seen some wild things in the first weeks of spring training, and I witnessed a strange one at the game I was at in Bradenton yesterday. New York Yankees pitcher Wandy Peralta delivered the coolest thing to come out of the new era as yet, when he needed only 20 seconds to record a three-pitch strikeout. 
 

It happened in the bottom of the second inning of the Yankees' game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh's Tucupita Marcano was the hitter, and the at-bat happened so quickly that if you blinked you might have missed it. Watch it all unfold in real time here:

everybody's mom on her TV show, but she was far from it

  1. They took a perfect game in which every pitch created a new game strategy and "FIXED" it.
