absolutely dying at all 4 lovely @boontavista.com hosts threatening Rick Steves as a bit, then looking him up, seeing his kind eyes and immediately reversing course and calling upon all listeners to protect St Rick Steves with their lives 💚 #ep345DriftStanceJDMToiletNoBidet

cooooool…power just went out. came on. went out for a few more beats. came on again—

tough but fair

awww the best way to make me feel like i have solstice at home

Doc Bullfrog, you smoke too tough. Your swag too different. Your bitch is too bad. They’ll kill you.

Bitches be cuh-razzzzy (watching I Love LA)

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

Power outages now into Oakland, impacting BART/transbay tube as of 6pm, power outage remains ongoing for San Francisco @nbcbayarea 12/21/2025

damn, if this is me and my monkey paw’s fault then I apologize to Greenland (yw Louisiana)

TIMMY 🤩

¡Y tú también!

On the eighth night, we were joyous, for we no longer had to rely on miracles to light our way. #Hanukkah

Light 'em up, friends

Happy Hanukkah from Australia ☺️ Second time for myself and it is an absolute privilege to be able to celebrate Jewish holidays with my fiancee. (And for clarity she is Jewish, I am not).

I have watched Donut’s shenanigans a dozen times

שֶׁעָשָׂה נִסִּים לַאֲבוֹתֵֽינוּ וְאִמּוֹתֵֽינוּ בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם בַּזְּמַן הַזֶּה

May our love, our hope, and our defiance of tyrants all burn brighter than our fear.

Kinda neat that the last night of Hanukkah is on the solstice. Using MAXIMUM LIGHT to battle MAXIMUM DARKNESS

Light on the darkest night. Happy Hanukkah!

“you’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loved you” - Fleetwood Mac, 1976.

darkest night, brightest night

we made it, homies

My parents have a more photogenic Hanukkah arrangement than I do.

Hanukkah sameach, hodesh tov, and solstice greetings

eighth night of Chanukah. may your life be filled with light chasing out any darkness. happy janice!

I’m so menorah-pilled thanks to y’all

big love to the professional readers 😍

PLEASE BE REAL

The Altadena fire was THIS YEAR for anyone else struggling with time blindness at scale.

I would

I know it's been said before but no matter how rational I want to be, in my heart I still do believe killing mr peanut and bringing him back as a baby unlocked some kind of wretched demonic seal on human society

I will not fact check this, I will be jolly instead

Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise. Happy winter solstice! Never give up.

“I’m not a Christian” disclaimer, but this last ep had me thinking how were Carol to love on Zosia, that would be a gateway for loving on all humanity which is the kind of thought pluribus makes me have

what scares me the most is that knowing things is not very helpful if you can't combine the different things you know to make new things. I stock up on knowledge like I'm filling a pantry and I can make so many new ideas out of them! I don't want a brain full of only inflexible frozen dinners!

google so bad i can’t find info about the abbott elementary episode i watched yesterday (thanks to gov abbott clogging results w his bullshit)

8. open mike eagle's like the spoon of hip hop (bear with me) in that the guy's dropped a dozen evenly excellent LPs over 20 years & i always say "yes this is also near perfect" & for some reason the world's not always talking about them. favorite track: me & aquil stealing stuff from work buy it⬇️

embarrassing to hear all the cheers tho

What could go wrong with embedding a virus-laden daycare centre in a long-term care facility? toronto.citynews.ca/2025/12/20/i...

This month's Beyond the Algorithm column over at the NYT is an annual tradition: we always devote December to movies that came out this year, are on the streamers right now, and are well worth a look over the holiday break. Gift link, no paywall: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/m...

i’m not Jewish so perhaps I am missing why this is bad —and I am anti-robot!! this is a little guy 🥹 ok the double dreidel eyes are menacing in concept but they’re landing as trustworthy somehow!

You supposed to be old… you supposed to be washed You supposed to be in the house telling jokes to your Brazilian supermodel wife who do a little bit of witchcraft on you to make sure your day go smooth I would cry to

Losing your woman to a karate man… is something you did Yo kids spending crimus in the karate man house is yo fault Gone and cry

Noooooo (emotionally, I’m sure she’s ready to fly free 🕊️)

it takes effort and imo is extremely worth it (even if i’m currently super tired from making jolly w strangers during blackout)

to this point, the only info I got was when I left my area, got wifi, texted my mom in mass, and had her send local messaging back to me

many of us mentioned ours at the candlelit Mini bar last night
