no one has the GUTS to ama

It’s really a pleasure to share a planet with Tom Waits

I’ve heard that 3.5% figure a lot and I found it a bit suspicious

quite often when I see a stop sign I say “SOP” in my head

still available for random Qs I’ve had one (1) plain LaCroix and not much sleep so things could get crazy

no. Not a football fan

here’s your happy news for the day, aggrieved rich people edition (article is from May, sorry if you already know this) apparently trash thrown down the chute from the upper floors reaches terminal velocity and sounds like a bomb going off when it hits the bottom 🙃

If Stephen Miller were ever to be lightly slapped by a 6th grade girl, he would shriek like a banshee and sprint for the nearest tool shed or storm drain, trailing fresh piss behind him.

I hate this motherfucker so much. So fuckin much. Sorry, no particular insight here, I just fuckin hate him

I know this is not really the point but it is good to remember that Stephen Miller is a pampered rich kid and a career political operative who has never worked a real job in his life and has not experienced a moment of hardship since his existence began

American politics is basically just people voting to decide whether we want our oppression to be systemic or blatant

Five Guys and Popeye’s (but I have not had them all) Anyone saying McDonald’s is wrong

ahhhhh I hate her! I’m gonna watch this so I can hate her more

here’s another one I’m fond of: “Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee.” -Special Agent Dale Cooper

“Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try. “ -Homer Simpson

I love burgers way too much

Save us from rich people who just want to get richer. If I had oodles of money I'd get out of my massive debt then make it rain on mutual aid until I had no money again. But people with multiple mansions just can't resist an extra million from the Saudis.

hard not to square the NYT as a news outlet that increasingly exists to get everyone over 40 who reads it to become resentful and scared right wing culture war warriors.

This is the administration that just fired a bunch of FBI agents for kneeling at a BLM protest five years ago.

tf is a smart ring??? What is wrong with you people??

A lot of people think that every international student admitted means one fewer spot for domestic students, when the opposite is more likely true - the tuition revenue international students bring allows public universities to provide substantial discounts to domestic students, improving access.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

watching Richard III (1955) w my kid. I’ll let you know how it turns out

David Cross folks.

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this

Vegas, no contest It’s a fun and bizarre place to go for a few days to witness kitsch in a beautiful desert surrounding but if I had to actually live there I’d probably kms

It was a lovely day so I ate lunch in the park. A couple sat at the table next to me and proceeded to start having a video conference about their IVF. I might have chosen a slightly more private location, but that’s just me. (And there were plenty of other benches/tables available, so extra odd) >

I needed this

liiberals make me fucking sick

With alt text because this made me cry 😭

the alleged shooter allegedly looked like this and drove an alleged pickup with 2 huge American flags so we will never hear about the alleged shooting after today

Justice Kavanaugh: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

I would like to go back to the halcyon moments of 15 seconds ago when I didn’t know about this

ugh, life is so fucking fragile. Don’t forget, now!

Meet August, my son’s new cat. He’s very small, but don’t judge him.

I love all the stuff I own

Utter would be a nice name for a boy

of all the physical changes that my body has undergone in middle age, the one that bothers me the most is the utter disappearance of color from my lips, and the advent of a gruesome pallor suggestive of impending corpsedom

the president just said the military should start shooting american civilians if they want to

it’s a good thing I showered today

🚨NEW: For the first time in history, the single largest group of people arrested in the interior and sent to ICE detention is people with NO criminal record. As of yesterday's data release, 40%(!) of those arrested in the interior and detained by ICE had no prior conviction or pending charges.

The U.S. Department of Justice is suing Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon over his refusal to provide the federal government with a copy of the state’s voter registration list.

The United States remains in material breach of over five hundred treaties with Indigenous nations. At least three hundred breaches occurred by or under Democratic administrations. If you want a government that is held to its word, that's a good place to start.
