Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Sunday Overnight Open Thread - May 31, 2026 [Doof]![]() From Mr. Star Spangled MAGA Murica Gargantuan American flag unfurled at iconic Western landmark to celebrate nation’s 250th birthday ![]() A massive American flag the size of a football field has been hung from the iconic Hoover Dam in the lead-up to the nation’s 250th birthday, after desert winds briefly forced it to come down for safety. The enormous installation, measuring 300 feet wide and 150 feet tall, was first unveiled on Memorial Day as part of nationwide celebrations leading up to America’s semiquincentennial on July 4. It is set to remain in place through the Fourth of July, weather permitting.Sure to be "triggering" to leftists everywhere. Good. ----- More Murica
'Ette Couture (Courtesy of Piper) It's that time of the week - when we turn the ONT over to our good friend Piper for a bit. Here's this week's fashion pr0n. ----- Swim Week Spotlight: Premium Picks from Miami Swim Week 2026 That Actually Flatter Miami Swim Week 2026 just wrapped and the premium runway delivered exactly what I love: sculptural pieces, beautiful fabrics, and flattering designs. Designers like Ema Savahl, B.FYNE, Monday Swimwear, Melissa Odabash, Honey Birdette, and Lila Nikole brought the heat with couture-level details and actual wearability. These weren’t cheap bikinis, they were elevated, confident-making pieces with gorgeous embellishments, flowing overlays, and thoughtful cuts. ![]() What Stood Out on the Runway • Dramatic cut-outs and hand-embellished details (Ema Savahl’s signature drama) • Textured crinkle fabrics and sculptural one-pieces (Monday Swimwear vibes) • Curve-celebrating luxury with real coverage options (B.FYNE killed it) • Resort-ready pieces that look glamorous Flattering Styles + Brand Recommendations Hourglass Figures (balanced curves with a defined waist): You want plunge necks, tie details, and high-waisted bottoms that highlight without hiding. Go-to Picks: Ema Savahl for show-stopping embellished sets and Monday Swimwear for supportive, textured styles that feel luxe and stay put. ![]() Ema Savahl Seaglass Croc One Piece ![]() Monday Swimwear MONTEGO ONE PIECE - MIDNIGHT CRINKLE Pear Shapes (curvier hips, narrower shoulders): Draw the eye up with ruffles, halters, or detailed tops and keep bottoms sleek. Go-to Picks: Agua Bendita or elevated Maaji pieces for feminine prints and perfect balance. Agua Bendita Dome One Piece Swimsuit ![]() Maaji Golden Ray Dazzle Lace Up Bralette Bikini Top Apple Shapes (fuller midsection, thin legs): Ruching, wrap fronts, and smoothing one-pieces are your best friends. Go-to Picks: Melissa Odabash or SHAN for tailored, sophisticated tummy control that still looks elegant. ![]() Melissa Odabash MUNICH CHAIN SWIMSUIT ![]() SHAN Classic high waist bikini bottom Rectangle/Athletic Builds (straight lines, toned physique): Add dimension with asymmetrical cuts, textures, and strategic ruffles.

Go-to Premium Picks: B.FYNE for empowering curve-forward luxury and Monday Swimwear for inclusive sizing done right. ![]() B.FYNE Denko Suit Practical Tips • Invest in quality fabrics that hold their shape (Monday and Ema Savahl excel here). • Mix-and-match separates whenever possible for the perfect custom fit. • Always check sizing guides or try in-store if you can—premium swimwear rewards proper fit. • Look for pieces you can layer with a great cover-up or sarong for resort versatility. Swim Week reminded me that the best swimwear makes you feel confident, strong, and beautiful. These premium brands get that. If you’re shopping for summer, start with one standout piece that makes you excited to hit the pool or beach. ----- Wow - thanks, Piper! Those are the types of models we need to see more of! I think the Colombian goddess says it best. Don't forget to check out Piper's X page. ![]() Geddy, Alex, Anika Nilles, and Loren Gold (sonicperspectives.com) Rush will kick off their much-anticipated Fifty Something reunion tour on June 7 at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. This marks their first time touring in 11 years. Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee will perform alongside drummer Anika Nilles, and the run makes this their first tour since longtime drummer Neil Peart died in 2020. The tour spans the globe, and dates run into April 2027. Nilles played with the band at the Juno Awards, and that gig served as a soft launch for their comeback.I already have tickets for Philly in August and DC in October. Who else has tickets? And who wants to put me up for a night or 2 if they're playing in your neck of the woods? ----- Deadhead documentary Documentary highlights new generation of Deadheads Jerry Pierce and Annie Dunn, a hippie couple who are the focus of a new Deadhead documentary, “Summer Tour,” weren’t even born when Jerry Garcia died in 1995. That makes them prototypical examples of a young generation of Deadheads who never went to a Grateful Dead show. But they did the next best thing, following Dead & Company, the band formed by original Grateful Dead guitarist and singer Bobby Weir, on its last tour in 2023. Director Mischa Richter tags along as the couple roams America in their old van, traveling from show to show and city to city with a wandering community of fellow Deadheads. Living in voluntary poverty, they are portrayed as looking out for each other as part of an idealistic hippie subculture of caring and sharing that has long been part of the Grateful Dead experience.I'm the farthest thing from a Deadhead, but I will check out the documentary. ----- Speaking of rock documentaries - if you're not familiar with "Heavy Metal Parking Lot", you need to fix that! 'Heavy Metal Parking Lot' Makers To Commemorate Film's 40th Anniversary With Special Screening ![]() On May 31,1986, emerging filmmakers John Heyn and Jeff Krulik drove into the parking lot of the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland — and into pop culture history — when they caught lightning in a bottle recording amped-up JUDAS PRIEST fans before a concert. Nobody could have imagined that 40 years later the resulting short film, "Heavy Metal Parking Lot", would be frequently cited among the greatest rock documentaries ever. On May 31, 2026, 40 years to the day since this much-heralded time capsule was captured on film, in Silver Spring, Maryland will screen — for the first time ever in public — the 60 minutes of original source footage, before the edit. Audiences will experience what was recorded that afternoon, in real time, while both Jeff and John provide live commentary as history is being made. The event will also feature the resulting 16-minute "Heavy Metal Parking Lot", plus a chance to meet some of the stars.The Capital Centre (imploded many years ago) was a great place to see concerts. I saw quite a few great ones there. First time I saw Rush was there. Metallica with The Cult opening. Van Halen with Alice in Chains opening. Many more. Great memories! The documentary mentioned at the link was filmed in the parking lot before a Judas Priest show. It was allegedly a favorite of the guys in Nirvana. They are rumored to have often watched it on their tour bus. from thisdayinmusic.com On this date in In 1982: R.E.M. signed their first label deal with I.R.S. Records. The Athens, GA band, who had recently recorded their debut EP, Chronic Town, turned down an offer from RCA, instead opting to go with the indie imprint. On this date in 2024: American musician Ed Mann died at the age of 69. He was known for his mallet percussion performances onstage with Frank Zappa's ensemble from 1977 to 1988, and his appearances on over 30 of Zappa's albums. Born on this date in 1948: English drummer John Bonham from Led Zeppelin -- Bonham died on September 25th 1980 aged 32 after choking on his own vomit. Bonham had consumed maybe too much vodka? ----- Bonus content for Mis Hum ![]() Mystery click? How brave are you? ![]() Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

He had a distinctive rhythm and rhyme in nearly all his tunes. Even when others covered them, like Elvis with "Promised Land," that rhythm came across. He was also a pretty sharp lyricist. His imagery in "Nadine" -- "I was pushin' through the crowd, tryin' to get to where she's at/ I was campaign shoutin' like a Southern diplomat" and "Movin' through the crowd like a mounted cavalier/ Leanin' out the taxi window, tryin' to make her hear" -- is distinctive too.

I was ten years old during the Bicentennial. I am more than a little concerned about how little fanfare is going on this year. I am also seeing a huge cancelling campaign going on, targeting artists signing on to the big Independence Day event.

I'm a die-hard Boston Bruins fan, but I knew they wouldn't get far in the playoffs. I had Colorado and Carolina in the final. My heart was pulling for Carolina, but my head was saying Colorado. Vegas swept Colorado, which is a reminder why you should never bet on sports.
Having said all that, I live in NC, but don't watch the Hurricanes because they make it too expensive for people who live in the state. Silly. I live closer to Nashville than Raleigh. I do like the Hurricanes, and I'm pulling for them. Lots of great talent and hopefully the Cup comes back to Carolina this summer. Posted by: windbag at May 31, 2026 10:25 PM (WMOnd) 67

The guys from Rush are very wealthy, they simply enjoy playing live.
They got the bug when they played at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute. Rush being one of Taylor’s favorite bands. They said all of the musicians at the show told them to get back out there. So they are back out there. This will more than likely serve as their last hurrah. Posted by: Thomas Bender at May 31, 2026 10:30 PM (XV/Pl) 78

How do you feel about indoor football and baseball games? Both to make the spectators AND players feel more comfortable during the game. I'm just yanking yer chain, Doof!

Rooting for the team formerly known as the Hartford Whalers. I miss those uniforms. Also, they traded Ron Francis, Ulf Samuelssen, and Grant Jennings to Pittsburgh in '91 and the Pens went on to win 2 Stanley Cups in a row. Ok, not good for Hartford but it worked out splendidly for Pittsburgh!

Women's swimsuits don't look comfortable. Come to think of it, a lot of women's clothes (and accessories) look uncomfortable.
I could understand that if most women's clothes were designed by disgruntled men. But, most of the men in fashion...well..., are more likely than not to wear woman's clothes.

Even though all of my numbers are "good" right now, I still get "scanxiety" every time I go in for one of these. Fortunately, I will be seeing my oncology surgeon tomorrow afternoon, and he will already have the results to discuss with me, so I won't have to wait to know what's happening.

When I went on a river raft trip, there were several French men on the trip. They have no shame when it comes to bathing suits. Teeny tiny bathing suits are not a good look for overweight middle aged people, whether men or women.

And that's not Rush. It's Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson and Friends. Without Neil Peart, it's not Rush, period. It's like trying to pull of a Rolling Stones tour without Mick Jagger.
It's even worse than trying to be Led Zeppelin without John Bonham. Peart was the fucking songwriter as well as 1/3 the band. Posted by: Mark Andrew Edwards, Buy ammo at May 31, 2026 11:24 PM (xcxpd) 173

Greetings Hordemates
Thank you Doof and Piper A question for those a little over 29. Do you remember when we had the bi- centennial ? It was my senior year of H. S. Does it seem like back there there was a lot more fanfare and build-up compared to this year? Wasn't there a lot more attention paid in the general culture with bicentennial-edition products, etc.? It doesn't seem like there's much attention being paid to this milestone. Is it TDS? Something else? What?

thongs, you say? men in speedos?
In France, nude beaches are pretty much de rigueur from what I saw. Mostly inhabited by the young and attractive, in my observation. I couldn't do as much gaping and learing (h/t MN Learing Center) as I wanted, though, bc I was with someone.

I'm just not getting it. It seems like a trend that got out of hand as an entire generation was looking for an identity. And, IMO, it's like an otherwise beautiful house covered in graffiti.

56 I was ten years old during the Bicentennial. I am more than a little concerned about how little fanfare is going on this year. I am also seeing a huge cancelling campaign going on, targeting artists signing on to the big Independence Day event.
How times have changed. In 1976, we were still regathering after Vietnam and the stupid, mostly made-up Watergate scandal. But America was still "America, Fuck Yeah!" I am not seeing that this time.

Their hatred is proportional to how much power they think they 'should' have and don't. It is easy for us to get caught up in all the power that they do have and shouldn't, since they instantly abuse it horribly; but it could be worse, and we can roughly estimate how much power they lack by the incandescence of their hate!

The bicentenial for me was a life changing experience.
My dad, right after the parade in Brooklyn MI, hauled my family into the unknown West. I was six. My brother 3 1/2. To this day we don't know why. I suspect black labeling by the unions. We landed in Orem UT for a year and then Carson City NV. I remember the parade being a huge deal. The fireworks were made in my grandfathers bunker. The display was awesome.

Most of the staff at hubby's nursing home have multiple tats, most of which appear (IMO) amateurish and/or cartoon-y. Ugh. And crayola-colors in their hair (males, too!) I've seen what tats look like after 20-30 years. That is why I have none. Posted by: JQ at June 01, 2026 12:53 AM (rdVOm) Posted by: JQ at June 01, 2026 12:53 AM (rdVOm) 252

Well, getting close to 2300 here, and I am sleepy. Close to 13 hours on the road, shared driving, fortunately. Had to put the top up on the convertible when we reached Idaho Falls. We hit rain showers less than 20 miles up the road, so it was good planning. Showers sporadic since then. Raining lightly now here in Helena. I expect there will be rain all the way home from here; Alberta is getting dumped on, but the farmers need it.

I wonder if the lights will be on every night? Might be something worth seeing. Not sure if you can see it from the O'Callaghan-Tillman bridge, though.
Posted by: OrangeEnt ---- From a car, no. There are pretty big barriers cutting off the view of the dam from the bridge. It's an antiterrorism measure. Somebody wargamed it and determined that a van with the side doors open could put a good sized rocket into the dam. As a side benefit, it keeps crashes down caused by rubbernecking. The average speed across that bridge is about 70. However, there are parking lots where you can walk to places with a good view of the dam. Posted by: buddhaha at June 01, 2026 12:58 AM (PC+XL) 257
I think my family is one of the few that sometimes has grilled peanut butter sandwiches for a meal. Well usually offered with the option of grilled cheese. Grilled PB sandwiches rock.

Great ONT! Thanks for the svimvear, Piper!
I was a teen in '76. Yes, there was much more excitement for the bicentennial. Seemed like it started revving up on Independence Day in '75. There were bicentennial coins, for heaven's sake! Flags everywhere; red-white-and-blue everything, from pop cans to snack labels to clothing. Swimsuits, too! Posted by: JQ Was in elementary school in '76. I recall it too being a year long event.

I'm getting confused over all the possible Latin words for 250 years. Semiquincentennial meaning of half of five is straightforward. Then there's sestercentennial, with "sester" meaning 2 1/2. But then another possibility is "bisesquicentennial". Now, bi- means 2. But sesqui means 1 1/2 (I think). Damn Romans counted sort of retarded anyway.

Here’s my lifelong conundrum:
I love hockey. It’s much like football except as it is on ice everything moves faster. It’s an awesome sport. But…I watch the international competitions and…that’s it. I’d follow the NHL if I had a team to follow. And being in TX, I am NOT following the Dallas Stars because of the general principle that they are in Dallas.

I was in Manhattan for the Bicentennial. Spent most of the day watching Operation Ships - tall and otherwise. It was so beautiful. And the weather was blue sky fantastic. Went to visit as many ships as my late father could take us to.
Then the afternoon came with the news from Entebbe. We were at the IDF's navy ships. I think there were 2. 1000s of euphoric people dancing and singing on and on and on. Went home to watch CBS News. Cronkite couldn't stop talking about it. That night, I boarded my scheduled El Al flight to Israel, to join my friends for summer vacation and then start a year of studies. I stayed instead for 2 and a half years. After that, I knew I would wind up here eventually for the rest of my life. And so it is.

I don't like tattoos, or most unconventional piercings for that matter. (Navel jewelry is oddly endearing -- "tee hee, my belly is so flat, is there something someone can do about it??") For most people, I think they're a sign of poor taste and worse judgement. I make exceptions for felons, crazies, and other scoundrels -- where I approve and appreciate them being dumb enough to etch Hazard Warning signs in their skin -- and professional rebels such as rock musicians (who are selling an image as part of the show).
However, there is literally nothing to gain by telling anyone. So I hold my tongue, and try to keep a poker face (though I'm bad at that). If they can tell I'm silently judging them and get upset, well, that's a 'them' problem -- and also, they should frankly be more worried about what I think of their behavioral ethics than of their metal and ink.
