I'm very confused, but I have to go into work. Can someone summarize for my lazy ass what the fuck is going on here?

No one else wants to bring back anomalocaris so we can get some payback?
Oooh, bison bulgogi, bison galbi, either would be good in bibimbap. I've got a couple things to try.
BTW: Yesterday I ended up going to the burger joint, but I got the bone marrow burger with a couple drams of Glenfarclas 18.
It means puzzled and/or confused.
Many authors seem to think it means amused mixed with some confusion or puzzlement or something else like that.
Some dictionaries have started to include definitions along those lines, which is correct to do if that is becoming a common usage. But that makes the word bullshit because it no longer conveys a clear meaning. Unlike some words that gain new meanings through misuse, it's usually not clear which meaning is intended from context. Usually I can easily imagine a character's response to something to be either of these definitions so I often can't understand the author's intention. I often find myself taken out of the story while I try to understand which meaning I should use. Because of this I think the word has become useless and shouldn't be used.
Bemused
It's used incorrectly so often that even when I suspect it's being used correctly I can't be sure. At this point its ambiguity makes it a bad word choice.
All that burgerland talk is making me want a bison burger, but all the Korea talk is making me want nakji-bokkeum. Decisions, decisions...
"A Transport For London camera study of 7,500 cyclists at five junctions found in 2007 that, contrary to popular perception, most cyclists do not run reds: 84% of the cyclists stopped at red traffic lights."
This surprised me. I haven't noticed that many cyclists running reds. The tone seemed to suggest that was a good statistic for some reason. That is way too high. If 16% of cars ran red lights my life expectancy would be about three days. I'm in favor of cyclists bending or breaking rules to protect themselves but I don't think running reds qualifies. Everyone should always stop at reds. I'm a bit of a scofflaw when it comes to some traffic laws but that's too far.
I like "I have spoken." My wife loves it. Or hasn't divorced me yet anyway.
Still don't know how that makes 21-23 "current." Just going to double-down on refusing to read the comment chain and make it about what you want, are you?
And? What does 21-23 have to do with who is "currently in power"? And how many SC justices has Biden appointed?
Maybe you should read the entire conversation, it's not long, instead of knee-jerking to one comment.
Edit: You know how you "restructure" the DNC? You show the fuck up. The average local office would only need 5-6 people regularly showing up, every meeting, not just the last few months before a presidential election, to shift resources and voting recommendations to more progressive primary candidates.
The heritage foundation has a plan. Why come up with your own when someone has already done the work for you?
