Mimosa, Bloody Mary, nice flute of champagne — or maybe a favorite tipple in your coffee. Make yourself one and join me at our own Algonquin Round Table, the spirit of Dorothy Parker abides.

Happy Sunday, dear friends! Welcome and find your seat. The champagne is poured, but there are stronger adult beverages if you wish. And, boy howdy, another week of head-desk-pounding over portside behavior certainly warrants stronger adult beverages! Who knew it might take weeks and months for the WNBA to figure out what the “W” in their name stands for? Or that AOC is serious enough about a 2028 run at the Oval office she dumps her long-time boyfriend of pallor and takes steps to freeze her eggs. I think I’ll add some extra bacon to my Bloody Mary — for the protein, of course! So pass the plates, dears, and let’s get to it. L’Chaim!

Media demands you see FOUR fingers

This is a must watch clip from the pandemic.

2021. CNN hunts down and confronts a doctor for spreading "misinformation" online. What was some of the "misinformation" he was spreading? Masks may not work and vaccines can be dangerous.

Don’t let them forget their behavior during the Wuhan Lung Rot era. Never forget.

When SNL was funny and relevant

Can you imagine SNL mocking the idea of doctors "transitioning" kids? Actually, they did, in the 80s.

REPORTER: "Dr. Hoffritz, can’t you see what you’re doing here? I mean, the 48-51% — they’re not girls, they’re little boys! You have mutilated over 2,000 little boys!”

I had to laugh at this, dears, as my own husband adores Pop-Tarts!

Your Sunday smile

Some heroes play water polo.

A California college water polo star saved three girls from drowning in a Seattle lake when she noticed the youngsters struggling to keep above the surface while in deeper water.

Lillie Vehling is being hailed a hero for her quick thinking, using her past lifeguard experience to extract the distressed swimmers from Lake Washington during the city’s chaotic Seafair Weekend Festival, the largest boat, air and festival hosted between July 31 and Aug. 2.

Brava, Lily!

I hate to say it, friends, but we’ve come to the end of our brunch. Where does the time go? Please enjoy the rest of your Sunday and let’s meet again next week. Cheers!
