A few years ago when I first discovered this song, I also discovered that it made my son (~7 at the time) inexplicably angry.

Well, fuck.

Yes, I’m newer transplant so everything is new and different, but how fucking cute is this?! This city is so damned entertaining.

You either understand exactly who owns this car, or you’re deeply confused, there is no in between.🤣

I was so stoked for this movie, but now I’m not sure I’ll be able to watch it without silently singing “Jizz in my Pants.” Good lord.

Eric! How could you?!?!

I can think of at least three marriages that I predicted would fail based entirely on posts.

I will always stan a petty queen.

Not gonna lie, this would’ve absolutely worked on me, back in the day. Being honest, if I were single, still probably would.

This is so genius! But also fun to imagine while you’re doing it.

I’m such a golden retriever, but at least I’m aware of it, so when my best friend’s husband told me not to mess with the person (he had previously worked with her), I listened. This is also very adjacent to red flags in dating, too…

I recently learned that Cole Escola is writing a Miss Piggy movie, and I really hope this is some early publicity shit. Because I am WHOLLY on board with Cole Escola writing a Miss Piggy movie. Like, excited wouldn’t cover it.

I read this aloud to my husband (wait, do I have a lavender marriage?!) and he just chuckled and said “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?!” And honestly I have no idea…

I left L&D to work for a homebirth midwife, which a lot of folks think is the same as free birth, and I cannot emphasize enough how false that is. Free birth is an entirely different animal, and this specific type is something else on top of that. CW: birth trauma, infant death

When I joined the military in the late 90’s, I was encouraged to not mention taking ADHD meds, since you couldn’t take them while serving. Luckily, the innate structure of the Army plus wide acceptance of coffee and smokes covered the gap. I’m certainly I’m not the only one…

Incredible.

TRUMP: and this Daniel, he went into the den? MAMDANI: The lion's den, yes TRUMP: surely they ate him MAMDANI: Here's the part where it gets a little Broadway: they didn't TRUMP: Unbelievable

My mayor went in there and charmed the pants off the old bastard. I’m sure I’m not the only person who knew/hoped that would happen. Playing that old queen like a fiddle…

Sharing to read later, but also….I read somewhere that part of standard postpartum care in France includes pelvic floor therapy, and after working in the birth world for years, I think it’s a shame we don’t do that here.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

I’m not clever enough to add my own, but this whole chain of quotes is absolutely delightful.

Beautiful.

Previously, my biggest irrational fear as an adult was accidentally finding myself at a sex party (just not my bag, whatsoever). My new irrational fear is accidentally finding myself at a sex party with Elon Musk in attendance.

I mean….look at this guy!

2025: when I, the godless heathen, am sharing an article about the Catholic Church in an unironic, non-sarcastic way.

The below phrase, and that video with the grains of rice really changed the way I view wealth and the uber wealthy.

In Saddam’s Mosul palace, there was a decorative chair rail type thing in most rooms, and before we (101st) got there, folks had gone through and pried out the tiny gold pieces from the rail. I have a feeling nobody would want this tacky shit.

Look I get publishing a broad spectrum of opinions but I already fed them this morning

Soooo, does this mean she’s gonna give Ms. Crockett an apology, or…?

in my heart I know that Lin-Manuel Miranda wants to play Zohran Mamdani on SNL so bad it physically hurts him

I love that Mamdani is what the right claimed Obama was: A Muslim socialist born in Africa. The right practically manifested Mamdani into existence.

FYI:

Coming in HOT!! I like it!

I’m speaking this into existence: Lorne Micheals, you better put the Mayor on SNL as a musical guest to preform Nani. Do it.

Brad Lander makes me feel like the little girl from the minions movie when she loses her shit over the unicorn stuffie.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

If you could rate a politician on the strength of their speeches, I would be immediately sad that this dude can’t be president. I know reality lies ahead, but I’m gonna enjoy this hopefulness for just a little bit longer.

genuinely beautiful that new york elected a muslim lefty mayor the same day that dick cheney died

The way I snorted…

this is objectively hilarious

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

Oftentimes if my dumbass asks the question, then other folks will have a bunch of follow-on questions. In actuality, nobody actually understood the issue, they were just afraid to ask. So if nobody picked up what the ‘smart’ folks were putting down, who’s really the dummy?

You can’t fake this. This man is having a great fucking time just being around the people of the city. I know it has fuck all to do with actually running the city, but his heart is very clearly in the right place.

All that time at DLI and I’ve got maybe a 5% comprehension rate. Can anyone more studious than I pin the dialect?

The dedication to the bit is incredible. The wardrobe, the music, the dialogue, the pageantry, all just flawless execution. Best binkie wake ever.

I have happily read every piece of Sliwa media I’ve come across since the man is INTERESTING. But even so, that barely scratched the surface of this dude’s lore.

I would buy one of these shits so fast…
