Can’t explain but I bet Sabrina Carpenter listens to Slint

It’s not safe to go alone, take this

My roommate keeps saying, “The Los Angeles Dodgers,” like he’s full-naming a kid he’s grounding

Okay so this is now the coolest thing I have

Define “Perfect Ending”?

Wanna feel old? This is the child of the Pepe pin Richard Spencer was wearing when he got punched in the head.

In old England the greatest lords think it great glory to be slapped by a queen

Today was the first time I’ve ever canvassed where I’ve gotten zero pushback when talking about BDS — more than that, I was hearing folks who just heard about BDS be like, “Yeah, of course.”
