Being into cats feels so debasing. You give everything over to this animal — time, labor, money — but when you want them to sit next to you, they refuse and jump away. When they finally sit on your lap, you sit motionless to the point of physical pain, afraid to disturb them. Humiliating.

Rings a bell…rings a bell…

You may sneer at the folks who didn’t see through Trump’s past antiwar rhetoric, but Obama straight up told y’all he’d find common cause with Republicans and some of you still can’t acknowledge that.

Full respect to people who are good at the short video format, but I know my lane—a few sentences preferably forgotten within moments of being scanned while doing something else

I see WTJU’s gospel show is continuing its Easter Sunday tradition of playing music about the death of Jesus…

Asteroid: *hurtles toward Earth* Stocks: *crash* President: It is just a piece of lint! Stocks: *rally*

I’m still not sure putting Microsoft Copilot into Artemis was a good idea

It's actually enraging how the World Bank can suddenly change its mind about industrial policy like "Oops, for the past 45 years we systematically prevented you from using the most obvious tool for sovereign development, keeping you stuck in poverty and dependency, lol".

Sixteen-month-old wearing a buffalo check fleece under a buffalo check coat—the rare double buffalo, such as children his age used to wear while wordlessly cutting down our country's most ancient trees

Uh...why are the markets so credulous? *These* are the people we put in charge of our investments?
