Mulder [tossing a file on the desk]: pack your parka, Scully

Just misread “Rededicate” as Re-educate, and I’m not sure I’m incorrect.

You get one clapback. If you keep attacking after that, it looks like a crash out.

Black mermaids was the most important sociopolitical fight for millions of people for a month. You could ask them tomorrow and theyd still be angry about a black mermaid. These people have no retirement funds.

Conservatives: America is the greatest country in the world, there is nothing we can’t do Americans: What about providing everyone with healthcare like everywhere else in the world Conservatives: Sorry, that’s gay

girl are you Christopher Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey because you haven't even gotten here and a bunch of weird dudes are already whining that you weren't created specifically to meet their expectations

I take a small amount of psychic damage every time Excel automatically changes ‘46 to 2046 instead of 1946.

The Wellness industry has the same greed as the biomedical industry but nothing it sells you actually works

i am tired of having to listen to dumb assholes just because they have a lot of money

At least we'll all die soon. Most of us don't have ballrooms

Yes… hahaha… YES!

If I’m working at it: a cozy third space for women and enbies, with subscriptions that let you attend cool intro classes If I’m just funding it: chip trucks (with poutine) for America, starting in Florida. Or just a Tim Horton’s franchise.

What happened? The entire Whitehouse Press Corp is there…so we’ll never know.

Another South Korean fad I'd love to import is throwing streamers and corrupt presidents into prison

Not now, graveyard bees

Could not have said it better myself The Constitution has many mechanisms to constrain Trump; to name a few: 1) Impeachment 2) Power of the purse to Congress 3) Emoluments Clause 4) Federalism We are here not because we don't have the tools, but because those who wield them won't use them

They expect us to believe mfer typed “wherein” lol, lmao even

“— all agree we won’t say anything about how it already hatched… err, we’re back, Houston!”

It's impolite to call Musk a genocidal white nationalist because "civility" in American discourse functions not as a neutral procedural norm but as an asymmetric weapon to shield the powerful from accurate moral characterization while policing the tone of those who object.

This was written about horses, but it is also about me.

We got a fucking show here guys

Weekend war criming from the blanket fort at Mar-a-Lago.

if you are a bigot or support bigotry or act in a movie built on the profits of hate, people are allowed to not like you 1. because bigotry is bad and 2. because people generally DONT LIKE THINGS THAT HURT THEM. like this is so obvious. it is not 'canceling' it is an exercise in basic human autonomy

They only get 2 minutes before he demands turning back to the gorilla channel.

This is probably the most succinct description of what rattles around in my head every day.

Really bears repeating that Republicans are spineless oathbreakers who created this entire situation by letting a TV idiot run for president and they sustain it by refusing to remove the guy, which they could do today

A thing that’s fun to think about is that when it happens it will be a GLOBAL celebration. Like there will be video from around the world of people dancing and laughing and singing

So if AI Psychosis is a thing that happens because the human mind breaks when it's trapped by a sycophant who affirms every thought, agrees with every delusion - does this give us a window into what's been happening into the ultra rich , and why they're such broken people?

Happy 250th birthday to a beautifully penned gentleman’s agreement it turns out everyone can just decide not to enforce at all

It seems like a problem not to know where the head of the National Counterterrorism Center was getting his information.

Search your camera roll for ‘hell’

This whole cycle of white collar grifting from DC during the week, waiting for the weekend when the markets close to fly to Florida and do some unhinged war crimes from a blanket fort next to the omelet station is seriously bumming me out.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. "I am going to dig these dead people up and punch their skeletons."

Modern Republicanism is making up a thing to be scared about and then using that as the basis for policy

New in PN: The worst cabinet in history "Even having one or two cabinet members as disastrous as Noem, Hegseth, Kennedy, or Bondi would be a stain on any administration; putting them all in one govt has created a kind of Bizarro World 1927 Yankees, an all-star team of incompetence and malevolence."

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

I’m just going to assume any of the posts that include “Thank you for your attention to this matter,” were written by Miller or that other bald deputy ghoul.

No, you can’t fool me. I’ve seen Scooby Doo. That part of the wall is a secret door.

Ayatollah Khamenei appears to have been replaced with Ayatollah Khamenei, so…

Every damn day.

Corn flakes are for curbing libido, and man puffs or whatever are for fuckin’

Just World Theory is a helluva drug.

I know it smell crazy in there.

The idea of a legislative body representing the population having the ability to check the ultimate power of a country’s leader sounds really neat. Someone should write that down.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but the tools to correct literally all of this nonsense are sitting in the toolbox just the distance of a couple of spines to uphold a sworn oath away.

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?
