I just just watching it again tonight as I was folding laundry.

It Could Happen To You (1994)

Time keeping is my passion.

Could Excel be conscious? We surveyed more than Jan 1 1900 people to find out.

New favorite football player just dropped

This is not a favorite exactly but it is very memorable for the way it attempts to draw in teen readers by evoking the Twilight series.

Knowing that people holding that position are easily pushed over so you can steal their stuff

Former NFL player JJ Watt doesn't play around when it comes to his wife Kealia Watt ‼️ His response to MLS team Real Salt Lake's tweet, where they failed to mention the former NWSL and USWNT soccer player, is iconic 👏

I am not a climate scientist but when I was a kid the number of times we couldn’t go outside because of Canadian wildfire smoke was zero times

HEAT wishes it was this iconic

We joke about this and should but we also have to really spend time on exactly how and why Iowa and Ohio getting like 5-8 redder spawned a recognized subgenre of political reporting but Georgia and Arizona getting 10-16 points bluer did not ✌🏾

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness #sixseasonsandamovie

This is not even the best scene set in a restaurant in this movie but alas, no one eats in the "Think" scene.

A great comic performance

Possibly more of a pastiche than a parody, but I think "when two hearts beat as one / but three hearts are one too many" is funny enough to be a clue that it's not meant to be taken 100% seriously.

Darline Graham Nordone is the first *sister* ever to be appointed to fill her deceased brother’s vacant U.S. Senate seat. Usually if a grieving relative is selected, it’s a widow. 6-7 (✋🤚) women have been appointed to a Senate seat left vacant by their husbands’ deaths. A short thread:

Why do all these headlines about Darline Graham Nordone being appointed to the Senate mention that she's Lindsey Graham's sister but not that she's also his adopted daughter, which I think is a much more interesting fact

Thinking back to 1992, when I started working in the US Senate, I count three people who are still and probably will remain widely known for what they did as Senators: Byrd, Kennedy, and McConnell.

"Verify your age" I'm 58 and don't have the patience for pointless guessing games

"It's a long story. Sufficient to say, I don't like liars who steal nail polish and then pass out when you slap 'em a little on the back of the head."

Not that forgotten but we need #andamovie

Everyone involved in Gamergate has been punched in the head and had all their devices confiscated

RIP Bonnie Tyler, whom I assume went out like this

12th anniversary of the last time I watched a World Cup match.

“Your last saved celebrity pic on your phone is your therapist”

Furthering my theory that this entire website is for people who owned Doonesbury collections as children and understood about a third of it.

This is perhaps not my favorite but it is very influential in that it made me a rabid Ben Folds Five fan before the song was half over.

Material Issue, "Renee Remains the Same"

The people in charge of your city’s streets do not care if their road designs kill people, so long as traffic flows freely.

Love Artemisia Gentileschi.

Everything in this thread is correct.

My local team does a "tee ball challenge" at every game where a toddler hits off a tee and successfully rounds the bases due to comical errors by the infielders. This reminds me a lot of that, except this isn't supposed to be hilarious.

Another banger from the boys who brought you that Stranger Things/Beetlejuice mashup

I haven't been paying attention to the World Cup, but some information has filtered through as people chatter about big games and great goals and exciting upsets and such, and I think today is the first time I heard that Switzerland was even in the tournament. Quiet competence, I like it.

Take me down to the Prolapse City where oh god why is that outside my body

And it's not even close

Nothing says Happy Independence Day like some good ol' Hitler punchin'

Ouch but also lol

Who else but

I like this one enough that I created this GIF. (Well, I had Frinkiac create it for me, same thing.)

I mean, I'm a lifelong Presbyterian, which kind of makes me excommunicated by default.

gumby was always saying this

This is a good thread, and not just because it describes Stephen Miller as having the body of a startled anteater.

THERE IS ONLY ONE POPE and he does not put ketchup on his hot dogs For more of the takes on all of this proceed to @clairewillett.bsky.social

This is a great thread, please do check it out

I have a four and a half day weekend coming up and I have a feeling it's going to go a lot like this.

Liberals say that our democracy won't last another 250 years. They're wrong—our republic won't last another 250 years.
