This is always a good thing to watch if you're asking "Why?" through gritted teeth: youtu.be/5zbQ--rpa04?...

So I'm doing such a great job supporting local, immigrant owned restaurants that I think I'm going to need a recommendation for a local, immigrant owned personal trainer.

"Well at least I never gave you an STD contracted from underage Russian Hookers!" clapback failed to impress the wife.

I made the mistake of only watching half of @techconnectify.bsky.social 's new video www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtQ9... The end of it is absolutely mic dropping 🔥🔥🔥

Everything this admin does seems so scary because we are used to administrations only making big moves after... like a bunch of smart people have MADE A PLAN. They thought about it, asked questions like "what if X". Then a bunch of smart mofos DID THE WORK. This admin doesn't do that, at all.

Uh oh. I think I'm letting the bastards grind me down.

@gelliottmorris.com Is this anything? 2026 special election vs 2024 general, same opponent?

I keep thinking about how this cute AF hat might have literally saved this kids life:

What they will never understand, is that our secret sauce, are these quiet, Hermione Granger types in MN, who are doing the work, and organizing with the fury and energy of Tasmanian Devils.

The fight is NOT over until I can walk a few blocks and buy my emotional support chorizo burrito, and hug the guy who makes it.

The fact that Bongino was literally like: "Oh yeah, we just found this 5 year old abandoned, and we brought him home, and his mom refused to open the door for reasons totally unrelated to us being armed thugs, so we did what any caring person would do and EXFILTRATED THE FIVE YEAR OLD TO TEXAS"

They say anger is just unexpressed sadness. At the moment, my sorrow is incandescent.

Every reporter should be asking where the surge of *judges* is.

So talk me down here... How do you have a functioning republic if one man has the ability to use the DoJ to target political opponents arbitrarily?

Noem: Agents discharged weapons at obstructors Reporter: The family killed was inside their home eating dinner Noem: It was breakfast for dinner. It frightened and confused the Agents. Reporter: They were eating pizza. Noem: The pizza had sausage on it

Neat that we invented a thing that is like "there might be martial law!" And you keep refreshing being like "Is there martial law yet?" And it is like "Maybe... wanna talk about how horrible that would be?"

ICE's narrative... makes no sense. They detail a scene where the shooting victim was attacking them with improvised melee weapons, and they shot in self-defense. The cell phone video documents that the man fled via car, went into his home, closed the door, and was shot through the door.

Looking up from a book on quantum electrodynamics: "Man, reality sure is weird." Turns on the news: "Man, reality sure is weird."

The image of the blood-soaked airbag next to the glove compartment overflowing with stuffed animals is going to stick with me for a very long time.

On the bright side, if JD made an impassioned plea to an armed, worked up crowd to attack the Capitol, it would only succeed in making storming the Capital seem like a lame and awkward idea.

It is more like the "Cartman Doctrine"

I read Maria Lucia's book, and it is wonderful and heartbreaking. www.upress.umn.edu/978151791886... #minneapolis

Me: "We must interpret each other's actions in the most positive light, for everyone is a complex individual trying their best in this crazy world" Me when a car unexpectedly appears and makes it so I have to wait three seconds longer to turn: "You are a DEMON sent to VEX ME!"

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Happy “Brick” by Ben Folds Five Day to all who celebrate

Philosopher: "Comparison is the thief of joy" Tech Bro: "I just had the most awesome idea."

I believe when you die, you goto a perfect place, specifically, Plato's "Perfect Plane of the Ideal", and there's a bunch of geometric shapes floating around, and all the jocks are sitting around sad and bored and all the math nerds are freaking out over at the sickest cone they've ever seen.

I feel like we need more national news coverage that Minnesotans have been pelting ICE with snowballs.

*farts presidentially*

Trump's "Buy Citizenship" website let's you choose countries that haven't existed since the first Star Wars movie in 1977 came out.

Took the family out to Wendy's for a quick dinner, rang up as $24.65, but then Chuck Schumer popped his head in and yelled "No! Charge them more to perpetuate our hoax!", and then they charged me $46.93.

"Christmas As Fuck," I whisper as I string LED lights on a plastic tree.

Seems about right.

The lack of the "correct" "Drink from the Firehose" GIF both here and in Giffy on slack make me "GenX mad".

Literally, the one thing the Democrats should do, is start a Youtube channel, and hire ONLY pretty blonde women to say terrible but true things about Trump. It would drive him so crazy, and there is honestly probably a couple hundred hours of content.

I miss "Auto-Tune the News".

"Rock Band" was the best video game experience I've ever had and I'm tired of pretending that it wasn't.

Monetization strategy for Tik-Tok: Allow parents of minors to sign up for "TikTok Premium", that "reduces ads", but also pushes videos made by influencers that push basic common/decency practices to impressionable youth: "Washing your face is CHOPPED!" "Telling your mom you love her is FIRE!"

Let's be clear, Halloween is the best holiday, by a lot, and it isn't even close. * It rewards creativity and expression * It is community and friend focused rather than family (which is to say that EVERY OTHER holiday is family focused) * Its for kids, and involves a lot of candy

Not talking about the logical consequences of our policy decisions and inaction is so cool. Every other Western Democracy would be all in a tizzy, discussing it, and talking about the repercussions, blah, blah,but not us. We're like, starving people are fine because they should feel bad about it.

A reboot of COPS, except it is just them kicking in doors of Gen Xers who haven't had their colonoscopy yet. Cop 1: "We've got a runner!" Cop 2: "They always run."

A thought experiment to highlight the institutional white supremacy we breath every day. Imagine the current First Lady's actions were identical, but she was instead: * Not White * Married to a Democrat And attempt to imagine a mere faction of the breathless wall to wall scandal coverage.

One must imagine <The Billionares Ruining Everything> happy.

My one criticism of #nokings is we needed a catchy chant song about releasing the Epstein files.

I think I've found a great use for AI: generating unique tradable digitial tulips! It is going to be the wildest craze! Based on my initial calculations, it is a nearly 5 quadrillion dollar potential market. Get in on the ground floor now!

I'm continually disappointed that x.com links rarely, if ever, contain any information about the titular tactical alien strategy game.
