wow my husband and i went on our first date thirteen (13) whole years ago. i can’t believe how lucky i am to get to spend my whole life with him 🥰

Exactly one year ago today:

jokes aside you should instead read this defector.com/the-killing-...

“An iceberg? At this time of the year? In this part of the Atlantic? And we’re about to crash into it?”

Sometimes you can’t think of anything good to write, and that’s a perfectly normal thing a lot of writers struggle with. It just means you committed a great sin and displeased The Lord. It means He has punished you by cutting you off from The Source

"The Scottish island of Summerisle, home of the best fruit in Britain. The first thing you notice? No churches. The farmers here practice a fascinating form of pre-Christian worship…and I just learned I'll be playing the lead role in their annual May Day festival. First stop: my costume fitting."

That’s Smee in the corner

We didn't deserve this day.

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail. Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Really tired and frustrated watching folks talk about how a nuclear strike or its destructive equivalent to Iran would endanger Americans. people are people. Iranian children are just as vulnerable and just as beloved as ours. Iranians have as many dreams and hopes and gifts as we do.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

pretty clear bright line today, anyone in power who isn't doing everything they can to remove him from office deserves handcuffs when this is all over. that includes any democrat who votes for anything he wants

Is there a Mr. Me With That Shit?

Is there interest in ordering another round of these stickers? 👀

“the pharaoh’s tomb is cursed! the necromancer’s ring is cursed! the witch’s grimoire is cursed!” that’s how you sound. everything is fucking cursed with you bro. i don’t care. i’m taking this skull.

I think the opposition party widely expected to make historic gains in the next election(s) has an obligation to explain how they'll stop this and prevent it from happening again or it's reasonable to conclude they don't plan on doing those things, which raises more uncomfortable questions

once you exceed a certain income threshold politics as most people think of it is basically just a question of taste. all rich people are friends and they all sleep together in one big bed every night

It’s a crime that in a society which goes crazy for sriracha and hot sauce that Sambal Oelek isn’t available in every supermarket

turns out the quickest way to make someone make a decision is to make the decision yourself so they can pop up and tell you that you made the wrong choice

Think about this one like once every 45 minutes

Sometimes, the system works.

ME: Why did Dracula go to the baseball game? ME: Because he wanted to see the bats. 🙂 WARDEN: Maybe the worst choice of last words I've ever heard. Ok, he's ready. Throw the switch. ME: (does not die no matter how high they crank the voltage, but does feel exponentially increasing amount of pain)

Every picture of ICE agents in airports is just this again

my sister is so excited about getting her cosmetology license i don't have the heart to tell her the USSR doesn't have a space program anymore

employees should be allowed to kill one (1) VP or higher like every five years. just often enough to make them think twice about some of the things they say and how they say them.

hot tip: if you ever want to know what information is available about you on the internet, make a post about how good you are at keeping your real life separate from your online life. in seconds, sickos like me will find your real name, wedding website, and work bio

Those few seconds of freedom when your first work computer login attempt doesn’t work and you think, maybe today’s the day

the cultural exchange between mexico and japan is so important to me

when the chaplain got mad at me for asking if Adam and Eve met the dinosaurs. I was trying to figure out how to reconcile two things I thought were both true and instead of helping, she got upset at me and then told my mom I needed to work on having faith and stop questioning her. i was like 5 lol
