You think anyone who has filmed a Day In The Life actually set up the camera before bed, and let it run to catch them waking up the next morning? Or do we think it’s always a get up > set up > get back into bed > mime wake up scenario? There’s gotta be like one person who did it the long way, right?

Legit question: Does McDonald’s own Connecticut? Why is the only food advertised on any freeway sign McDonald’s? Some specific rest stop exits also say Subway, but what the hell?

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Friend has on an episode of MacGuyver as I come in, and MacG is hanging with a black mom and son. And just as I’m about to open my mouth and ask “Is MacGuyver… black? in this one?” I realize I was thinking of Quantum Leap…

*Someone* out there has to have found a piece of the Agro Crag at a garage sale or a thrift store, right? It has to have happened at least once by now. If not recently. That’s my thrifting holy grail, I think.

Just occurred to me if the 12 Days gifts are cumulative (I.e. on day three you receive three hens, two doves, and a partridge, in addition to the partridges on day one and two, and the doves on day two), you’d have enough to eat a bird a day for the entire year. 364 birds (minus Christmas Day).

Do I have any history nerds who know about historic Christmas ghost story traditions? I’m looking for works that predate Dickens’ reboot of the tradition, stuff people read to their families around the fire as entertainment during the holidays. I’ll ask my librarians too, but Google sucks now so…

We got Weird Al out here singing Killing In The Name, the time for moderation is over

Is molasses the Canadian Vegemite? I never meet anyone who eats straight molasses, or uses it as a condiment, unless they’re Canadian or family from Canada. Maybe some northern states that touch Canada? People look at me like 🙅🏻‍♀️😬☹️ when I say I love molasses on toast, which Mémé brought me up on.

Did you know the President pays for the personal daily food in the White House? It’s not covered by budget. The President pays for it out of their own pocket. Only state dinners or similar events benefitting the political office are covered by taxes. Just some interesting facts I thought I’d share.

Emailed Southwest to suggest they carry some gluten-free snacks, and they wrote back and declined to do so. They suggested I carry my own snacks, though, which is definitely something that never occurred to me, a person with a food allergy.

At a certain point in an intimate relationship, you gotta ask them “If you had to kill me, how would you do it?” You have GOT to know how crazy your friends and partners are. You gotta know if you’re the crazier one. You gotta know how to foil their plan they definitely thought of before you asked.

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

“How much better is it to weep at joy than to joy at weeping!” —Leonato, Much Ado About Nothing

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

Not to be dramatic, but there is a deep melancholy to this loss in ways that I think I need poetry to convey

In light of climate change, I petition to add dressing up in costumes to some summer holiday so we can be slutty without freezing. No moving Halloween. We’re keeping that. Just add costumes to something else.

WOW okay unfollowing her now. Was a massive fan of her work and respected her as a shrewd business woman but had no idea she was stealing young mermaid's voices and putting them in seashells.

*chortling through a mouthful of pretzels* video games!!

I'm getting old enough I either have aged out, or am starting to age out, of most of the discounted theater ticket programs. So obviously I'm biased. But I think they should also have discounted programs for single theatergoers and self-employed theatergoers.

I already respected ASMR creators as pros/sometimes even artists, but let me tell you that level of respect skyrocketed when I realized/confirmed that they shoot the whole video and then go back and frickin’ Foley their sounds back over the top of them. For these hours-long sessions. Just wild.

We need a Ring(tm)-dong-ditch, for the children. You can’t make people get up off their couch to answer the door only to have there be no one there anymore. The children have no pastimes. What’s the equivalent harmless thing you can do to someone’s camera doorbell that makes them Do Something?

Me, a sailor in ancient times, sailing my boat into the rocks like an idiot: Uhh a lady made me do it. By singing. Usually I'm really good at this

In 1800 Elma Sands’ body was found dumped in a well in New York City. When they found her discarded corpse, the first thing they did was perform a pregnancy test. This was standard practice when finding a woman’s body, because it was highly likely a suicide or murder was due to an unwanted pregnancy

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

We own a house collectively with a few friends and use it as a perk for our CEO, who lives there for free. Tenant is bombastic so when he started talking about building on to the house we shrugged. Woke up today to photos of him demolishing the house. That we own. Any lawyers have advice?

Halloween costumes are becoming even more an invitation to joy w/strangers. Pop culture is so fragmented, there’s few icons everyone knows. So when someone recognizes you as someone from some show out of ????? out this year, it feels so exciting to share — we both liked the thing! You’re my people!

Million myriad other reasons aside for hating AI being up in the job search process, one thing that deeply infuriates me in particular is that I never consented to letting these companies have my resume — or sometimes video interview responses — to train their shitty software that doesn’t even work.

Do the WoW children today know about More Dots? Have they been told of 50 DKP minus? Have the ancient texts survived? They love a crash out, so that last one seems ripe for translation to a new era

I know this is niche content and has only 🤏🏻 overlap with my usual audience, but I’ve been wanting a new hockey jersey for a couple seasons now and I am explicitly waiting for this Fanatics contract with the NHL to end because I refuse to spend jersey $$$$$ on fast fashion stitching and fabrics -_-

This week: -Three more universities rejected Trump's extortion compact -Over a dozen airports refused to play Kristi Noem's propaganda video -30+ press outlets refused to comply with Pete Hegseth's new restrictions The only way to rebuke Trump's authoritarianism is solidarity.

For God’s sake let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings

Omfg as if apartment hunting in NYC wasn't already a maddening hell as it is...

Happy birthday to my birthday twin Gritty @nhl-flyers.bsky.social! (Still angling for a joint birthday party…)

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Park Rangers are a national treasure. They just want you to love the national parks and forests as much as they do, and see whatever cool animal you want to see, and appreciate and take advantage of the conservation done for you by past generations, and by us for future generations.

none of the gotcha examples of "out-of-control scientific spending" bother me in the slightest. isn't science about finding shit out? "they spent a million dollars of taxpayer money to see if they could make mice sexier" okay, well, what was the answer? I want to know too

I have just missed seeing a moose twice, and two other people I’ve met on trails have seen moose in those spots on a different day. The moose refuse to let me see them. What have I done? I’m just simply going to kill myself. What is there to live for if you in particular are hated by the moose? 😭

If I stop having Stendhal’s looking at mountains or the ocean or the Milky Way painted across a night sky, just bury me, I’m out of life

The fucking finger guns lmao

Please come watch my second favorite Canadian sit at a table.

Seattle, here I come! Headed to Pax West. Who’s gonna be there? 👋🏻

I really hope @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 's team sees this because they have the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time, and put this out themselves...

Game on.

Just learned Jason's pup Hank has a brother who lives down the street and they get to see each other every week and my heart is full-t'-burstin' 🥲

If you need something happy and calming to accompany you this workday, or just want to feel the warm fuzzies, the Never Post crew is showing off their pets on camera... www.twitch.tv/theneverpost
