oh my god this was good

If asked i would say that the Rosetta images of the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko are tied with those of Satrun by Cassini as the most dramatic and incredible of a solar system object ever returned via spacecraft. Just look at the mood here.

Cutting trillions in taxes for 900 billionaires but garnishing wages for 45 million working people with crushing student debt is the modern version of let them eat cake.

Ruin two bands by combining them: The Backstreet Beastie Boys

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

If I were innocent, I would want everything released to prove my innocence.

Asimov didn’t mince words.

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little." ‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.” So a napkin is a little tablecloth. 10/10, no notes.

Here's the NYT today: "The Trump administration’s efforts to reduce the foreign-born population are being felt in hospitals and soccer leagues and on Main Streets across the country" www.nytimes.com/2025/12/28/b...

I think people today don't understand just how dramatically the night sky has changed - it looked like it does in super remote areas *everywhere* before the invention of electric lighting, and light pollution that obscures the sky has gotten dramatically worse in the last 25 years.

Yup. I'm telling y'all, these dudes don't know anything.🤡 Frank Sinatra was a vocal anti-racist. He fought racism with his actions, his words, and his money. Actions: Refused to stay at segregated hotels. Made sure Black artists got paid fairly. Words: Literally wrote an article in Ebony Magazine

DR. NOT AT THE MOMENT

You've just opened up a Star Trek themed restaurant. What are you calling it?

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

Annual posting of this. It doesn’t get easier even after more than a decade.

The crew of the Cerritos gave me a present to apologize for how rude they were to me. I shall name him Billiam. ❤️

Call my dad.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head. That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Why?

It's well past time for Democrats to stop hand-wringing and start swinging.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

ABBA, WHEN GIVEN A MAN BEFORE MIDNIGHT

What a shameful question. First, it is not what Congress "asked for." It is what a federal statute REQUIRES. Second, WTF does "spirit but not intent" even mean? CBS bent a knee and paid Trump, it has a new owner who wants to please Trump, and sadly this is the result.

You might be thinking, "CPSC, does a dry Christmas tree really burn that much faster than a well-watered tree?" Friend, let's find out together by watching this PSA.

Shamefully, 182 years to the day since Charles Dickens published 'A Christmas Carol', 'Ignorance' and 'Want' are still the twin Ghosts of Christmas Present. Back in October 1858, Dickens arrived in Glasgow to do four public readings at the City Halls, in Candleriggs.
