Please don't be shocked that someone is posting here on an actual Friday.

Despite their use going back a long time (think FDR, JFK and LBJ), the Economist has published a light hearted lament at the increasing use of TLAs (and other sometimes indecipherable abbreviations and acronyms), from RGB, MBS and MTG to the endless list employed and understood (or not) in social media. For those who have access to the site, it's here.

The author notes wryly (and I suspect falsely) TBH IDK WTF a PSA is.

surprisingly one of the few things google is still good at is acronyms (sometimes have to put "slang" after)

Kristen Wiig hosted SNL this past weekend and brought back her character Aunt Linda who reviews movies on the Weekend Update segment. She is so great. She was disappointed though the FX series The Bear wasn't about a hairy doughy gay man! 😅

That’s how you win a PR war.

Brilliant.

I’m not even sure I believe it, but I do know I’ve been singing, "Dollar bills, dollar bills, Gaza skies are black, but Qatar is always sunny" all day.

Brilliant! It's way overdue the world finds out about the reality of their leaders all in "exile" Most westerners don't realize the huge difference between the Palestinian in the West Bank and those Palestinians of Gaza. They have two different governments, and each chose their own. Gazans chose Hamas!
