The gender pay gap traps women in bad marriages by making it financially risky to leave.

Before i pay Apple to replace my iPhone 13’s battery can anyone tell me if this is effective? No one in my house has a job at present so replacing it is not a viable option.

Time for me to post this again duhblog.org/post/1521332...

The bollard thirsts for blood.

He is just *running circles* around everyone else as a communicator. It’s kind of amazing to watch.

I am several years late to watching Succession but I haven’t felt this *much* watching TV since The Americans

A four year old pointed out that my eyeliner matched my nails, shoes, hoops, and engagement ring and told me she “really liked that about” me. Fuck the male gaze: I’m doing it all for pre-K girls who need a boost to check out my earrings and consider shininess to be an enviable personality trait.

On the language of Homeric Greek, and the language of a certain forthcoming film: here are a few simple observations.

new fingers testimonial just dropped, might be my favorite one yet:

the ubiquity of home security cameras makes the realistic possibility of a toy story less and less likely

jefferson: i have started a draft in google docs adams: absolutely not, you fucking amateur, use word like a grownup

happy birthday hotdogs

This makes me want to watch 1776: The Musical today

Heritage Foundation office visible there so probably picked up some marchers along the route

I have no real thoughts about Taylor or Travis and wish them well And Getting married on the 4th of July is diabolical

It is fully 97F and the woman in front of me ordered…a PSL. HOT.

marked safe from having any idea of what people are talking about

Today marks a year since I got laid off. I am still looking for work and it’s nothing short of a huge bummer. I am an experienced creative professional with a top-flight resume working for some of the world’s best brands. Any leads are good leads— let me know if you hear of anything!

I have a scorching hot take I want to share with the internet: SLC beats the pants off Denver in every metric.

Okay sorry to clarify: the concept is a weeklong road trip where you drive to different states. Seven, to be exact. I think he made it up to make going to Iowa sound fun.

Is a See Seven States road trip something you’re familiar with? I am beginning to suspect my grandfather made it up.

I am making food but am not thrilled.

My unpopular opinion is that if you want to drive one of these huge, heavy trucks, you should need a CDL. I see a lot of people driving them who don’t really need to be doing so and as a result don’t know how to handle them.

helpful coverage from @elpais.com english.elpais.com/usa/2025-08-...

Fire survivors say “it’s morally reprehensible,” and experts worry the wagering could lead to arson.

I know the list is endless but I genuinely think trashing the legitimate congressionally chartered org for celebrating the 250th to instead hijack our national assets and taxpayer funds for his personality cult grifter crap should, in and of itself, be fully sufficient to merit removal from office.

I think this is something. We have the political will. Jail all veterans of the arm garter wars.

I regret not being more unpleasant to Alito’s kid in college. That’s apparently the only recourse any American could possibly have.

I needed to take a car this morning and the driver took one look at me and changed the station from R&B to country.

Closing out a call with a long distance loved one with “okay, see you tomorrow” is a top-tier feeling

I don’t want to say I didn’t care when Roe fell. I did. But I’ve lived nearly my entire life knowing I would have to drive to Illinois or Maryland for help in an emergency. For a lot of people, to include someone very privileged like me, nothing changed at all.

This is just gutter racism so I just want to know why napkin is in quotation marks.

I think the most compelling evidence Bernie Sanders is deserving of his senate seat and possibly the presidency is the image below and to that end, congratulations to Brad Lander.

In my home, we have two rules: 1. If they call, do not speak to the NYT style section 2. If Chotiner calls, throw your cell phone in the nearest dumpster and quit your life and start a new one

What??? No! That’s so crazy! As a former tech worker I can’t even imagine a situation in which I, a woman, would experience this exact situation! Certainly not every single goddamn day or anything.

This is also how Rosser learned I have Steve Romines and Ted Shouse’s numbers saved in my phone with lots of panic keywords in the notes sections in case I accidentally get arrested because I will accept no substitute.

My husband is from New York. I am from Louisville. Significantly fewer movies and shows take place in my hometown than his. He is REALLY enjoying the role reversal of me pausing Murder in Glitterball City every ten seconds to provide extra information. By which I mean he is not enjoying this at all.

New week, new menu.

Okay not me but a close friend spilled an entire quad carrier of hot coffee on Elon

joe rogan won’t see your mean comments about his steroid induced head shape problems but i will and i think they’re all very funny, keep posting them

Also a preteen girl gave me these and I love them

Okay, I have seen the Weird Al show and I can say 1. He seems to be an object lesson in the value of minding your own business, not stepping on necks on your way up, and the compounding value of those two things as you age and 2. Punk as fuck.

Not only is weird al playing a very large arena, the arena is *packed* with dudes in Hawaiian shirts and their goth girlfriends

Which merch do I need from the Weird Al table and why is it a Hawaiian shirt

These kids are shockingly good at drawing trumpets

It’s that time of year again: I must ask you what your favorite Carly Rae Jepsen song is and why is it Cut to the Feeling

Thrilled to announce I am decades ahead of this trend! www.nytimes.com/2026/06/09/t...

Okay Todd, say more about these light fixtures then

I apologize to anyone who is not from here because this is a very Louisville post
