When you eat beef jerky while watching Drag Race and you have a corg.

Damn, Ricky Martin is one of the only celebrities who has actually aged well. Fun to see him perform tonight! Bad Bunny was great!!

IMPORTANT OLYMPIC NEWS: THE POLISH FIGURE SKATING TEAM HAS A PLUSH PIEROGI

Dear Congress, grow a damned spine and DO SOMETHING!!! At some point we’re all, even you, going down with this ship. You know this! Stop it before it gets even more out of hand than it already is! #Congress #war #lies #oil

I’m perpetually in high school?

How are these revelations not front page news on every mainstream media outlet?! Yes, we already “knew” but this is the New York Times reporting proof of a cover up! www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/m...

Democrats: We have not yet begun to fight! Voters: Why the hell not? What the fuck are you waiting for?

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

Oof, The Family Stone hits way harder this year. 😭

Chicago is having none of this administration's BS.

Ugh, the Facebook Friendsgiving commercial is adorable. Why does it have to be for Facebook? 😂😭

Death Cab for Cutie is on the oldies station, please do not touch me or I will crumble to dust

If I were to defy a court order, I'd be in jail, not building a ballroom. Reopen government, swear in Adelita Grivala, release the Epstein Files, restore healthcare subsidies, and fund SNAP.

New York Times Op-Ed one year ago

Or we could… hear me out now… establish universal healthcare and be finished with corrupt insurance companies that bankrupt people forever. Silly me, right?

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

America is currently a giant experiment to see how long we can keep stuffing a year's worth of news and outrage into every single day before everyone's heads explode

Seriously, @nytimes.com ?! No one has called it Obamacare in years and yet you call it that when printing an article about how bills will double unless Congress acts? It’s the Affordable Care Act. What is wrong with you? Are you fully in Trump’s pocket now?

Dear World, We are so sorry our President is so awful. You have every right to hate us right now. Half of us hate it here too. He’s a total embarrassment. We’re doing everything we can to fight back, but the party of cowards love him/won’t stand up to him and without them it’s an uphill battle.

If Trump really wanted to sanction Putin, he could. It would be no problem. Congress would go for any sanction he wanted. So any time Trump puts a condition on sanctions, it’s just another piece of evidence that he is protecting Putin from sanctions and helping Russia in the war.

This is how you do it.

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

being in ICE or Border Patrol must be so crazy right now, you’re walking around as the disposable henchmen you can kill without qualms in the coming century of films and video games

Why am I always delighted when fiction books I’m reading reference other *real* fiction books? #FreshStart #GaleGalligan

Noticing a pattern here.

Planes are colliding, but our reality TV personality and avocational stripper Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, remains laser-focused on what matters: rainbow crosswalks. This administration is always more interested in trolling than doing its job. www.metroweekly.com/2025/07/sean...

In 2016, Ghislaine Maxwell falsely stated, under oath, that she was not aware that Jeffrey Epstein recruited underage girls for sex (you know, the ones she was actually recruiting on his behalf). She was charged with two counts of perjury for this. Remind me why we give a shit what she says now?

When people talk about how systemic and structural issues don't exist but the data all looks like this.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "As a state rep, I get paid about $600 a month. That's not much to live off of. Many of my colleagues, including myself, we have day jobs that help us pay the bills. And by breaking quorum, we are leaving those day jobs behind... So this decision was not made lightly."

Rewatching Now and Then. This movie just never gets old. I adore it.

Remember when one of your biggest problems of the summer was that the grass seed you had sown took root and grew almost immediately in one part of the yard...but wasn't doing jack sh*t...in the other areas? I vaguely remember that era. It's been a bit.

The White House doesn’t need a gold ballroom. That $200 million should be used to support more affordable housing.

Best impulse buy all summer. My wine shall be FIERCE.

2 points here: 1) There's no statute of limitations in New York for Ghislaine Maxwell's crimes (maybe also options in New Mexico and Florida). A pardon can't stop state prosecutions. 2) We just got another reason to release the Epstein files: so the public can test Maxwell's truthfulness.

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

If your only solution to address the "root cause of homelessness" is to herd all of them into facilities and leave them there, then no, you have not addressed anything other than shifted some deck chairs on the Titanic. You resolved nothing.

WHY??? What the fuck could possibly be the reasoning behind doing this?!

The hardest job on the planet now is to be a writer for the Onion. Bc no level of made up absurdity can top reality at the moment

Haven’t had a watermelon this good in decades. 🤤🤤🤤

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

Chocolate raisins aren’t as good as yogurt raisins. I said what I said.

I am so hella excited to marry this handsome dude. 🥰

As an elementary school librarian with school starting soon, knowing a large percentage of my students and their families are immigrants is stirring up a not insignificant level of anxiety. Can’t believe I have to hope with everything in me that they all make it through the school year.

I’m so tired of reading real news that should be an Onion article.
