I am grateful that there is a strong American leader whose soul is filled with compassion.

Last night marked Kuf Alef Kislev—the 81st anniversary of the Satmar Rebbe's escape from Nazi-occupied Europe. His rescue and founding of Williamsburg's Hasidic community shaped our city. Grateful to celebrate this history with the community and greet the rebbes.

What you do when it’s your wife’s birthday and your daughter is in town for a visit and LCD Soundsystem is playing Knockdown Club in Queens!

Perfectly put.

Alright. Everyone can stop now. We have a winner.

Has anyone told him what memorial means ?

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

Maggie photobombed a photobomber. She takes after her mother.

+6ºC today. Hubby and I skipped breakfast and went to the local shopping mall. We ate lunch at Höyry restaurant: a salad buffet for starters. Hubby chose pan fried vendaces and mash for main course and I chose breaded pork schnitzel with wild mushroom sauce and French fries. 🍜

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the movies, THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SEARCH FOR SQUAREPANTS opens. Fiendishly Funny! Surreally Silly! Pants-wettingly Scary! You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll eat popcorn while simultaneously losing brain cells. See Epic Escapism at its Finest-TODAY! 👀

Good night, lovely people and lovely dogs. I hope that you have a really wonderful weekend.

Renna wants to wish you happy holidays ✨ Our team is taking the next two weeks off to rest and recharge before returning Monday, January 5th! Thank you for an unforgettable year. Here's to everything we'll accomplish together in 2026! See you then ❤️

NY Times: “This a presidency that celebrates nastiness and spite, not empathy or grace, a reflection, perhaps, of a coarser era in American life.”

Happy EPSTEIN Files Release Day Eve for all those who celebrate!!! 👍

This is Copper. He's trying to make you a fancy Italian meal. Just needs help tracking down some sauce and meatballs, then dinner will be served. 13/10 (TT: spy_v13)

This is Comet. She had an unsatisfactory walk experience today. Decided to file a complaint with management. 13/10 (IG: peachycomet22)

This clip /might/ contain spoilers. You've been warned. All episodes of #ITWelcomeToDerry are now streaming on HBO Max.

+5˚C today! Where do Finns get protein: we drink milk with our meals, we eat a lot of dairy products: yogurts, cheeses and eggs, oatmeal. For hubby’s brunch: cucumber, persimmon , melons, avocado, egg, pepper, pear, grapes, blue cheese. There’s also milk and yogurt available. 🍜

I ended up discussing some things on my YouTube show this week that I did not think I would ever discuss. What can I tell you? Life happens. I’m extremely grateful and relieved at the positive response. The episode is receiving. Watch here: youtu.be/ImEXQZvMO28

Few - very few - people have traveled rebel-held Burma and worked for democracy there as thoroughly and with the courage my old friend Edith has. Her occasional history threads are always gems.

Wow I haven’t seen some of these photos in a long time. Thank you People Magazine for the birthday shoutout and for sharing these memories. 📸 Link below or in my bio for the full article. @peoplemag.bsky.social people.com/vintage-phot...

Good night, lovely people and lovely dogs. I'm wishing you the very best for the tail end of your week.

This is Primrose. She's one of 42 dogs that were rescued from a backyard breeder in terrible condition. Thanks to your support of our merch @15outof10.org was able to cover their collective $25,000 medical care. They're all recovering, and we're happy to share many of them have found forever homes ❤️‍🩹

I consider myself a fairly patient person, but I can't listen to another second of this ridiculous, wheezing idiot. I'm done. Nothing he is saying aligns with anything that is really happening in the real world.

The Contrarian

This pup managed to sneak her way into a joyride with an unsuspecting delivery driver. Popped up to ask where they're headed and if there's time to get a pup cup on the way. 12/10 (TT: copperdoesstuffs)

Accurate

This is Ranger. He has picked you as the chosen one for this dinner party. Or as he calls it, the weakest link. 13/10 an honor (TT: sunnycorina)

Signal boost! (Disclosure: I have a 13 year-old nephew to shop for, myself, and I don't know what the damn kids today are playing.) #Tabletop

I was listening to THE MYSTERIOUS SOUNDS OF THE JAPANESE FLUTE (album i bought as a lark as a teen but liked) on Apple Music &after the album it played a bunch of similar music &i fell asleep i woke up and the below was on and i feel like my phone had a whole journey when i wasn’t paying attention

VERY excited to be on @kellyclarksontv.bsky.social TODAY, Wednesday 12/17 w/ ICE SPICE & SpongeBob himself: TOM KENNY (check local listings) Later I'll be making a brief cameo on @jimmykimmel.com All in support of #TheSpongeBobMovie_SearchForSquarepants 🧽 Should I be worried about overexposure? 🤔

+5˚C today. A rainy day and so dark, no narural light to take photos of my beautiful, white amaryllis and ripening Calamondin! For breakfast: sourdough rye bread with cucumber, pork/mushroom sausage, grapes and horseradish spread, salt cured white fish and orange, apple, coffee. 🍜

Man,game 7 of the 2013 series, when the Bostoo Yook Yarters walked it off in the 57th inning against Chicago City was something I will never forget. And I say that as a Logeeles Dodgers fan for LIFE.

good night, lovely people and lovely dogs. I hope that you have a splendid day tomorrow.

I was really disappointed that all the Star Trek series are leaving soon from Netflix! I recently subscribed it, because we wanted to watch them again. I guess I need to cancel my subscription. ☹️ For dinner: potato salad, blueberries, egg, different vegetables and fruits.🍜

This is Millie. She just learned how to sled. Hopes you brought a second land frisbee, because she will not be taking turns. 13/10 (TT: millietheredlab)

Hey, I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the empathy, compassion, and genuine kindness so many of you have so gently shared with me. Kindness matters more than any of us know. It makes a difference. Thank you.

I know this will be a controversial episode of my YouTube show. But screw it. I go OFF Watch here: youtu.be/ImEXQZvMO28

youtube.com/watch?v=pVT4... This is fun if you’re interested

This is Radley. She asks to "destroy" when she needs to let out extra energy. "She gets plenty of walks and physical activity," her family told us, "but she uses her destroy button when she is craving a little extra chaos." 13/10 (IG: radley_barkley)

This is Willi and Rigatoni. They were saying not-so-nice things behind your back, but then you turned around. Super awkward. 13/10 for both (IG: wildwildwilli)

I taped my latest episode of my YouTube show, which will air tomorrow (Tuesday), where I just go OFF on last weekend. No comedy. Not funny. Yes, I know I will get in trouble. I don’t give a f*ck. Enough is enough.

Good night, lovely people and lovely dogs. I hope that you have a fantastic day tomorrow.

Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

This is Rose. She's paralyzed in both her back legs from being hit by a car as a stray. But when she sees her wheelchair harness come out, she knows it's time to walk and roll. 14/10 (IG: twopawrose)

It hasn't even been twelve hours, but all three of us have been overwhelmed with requests from media for comment and I'm mostly writing this now so they'll leave me alone.

This is Deejay. He wanted to offer you a big nose and tiny tongue during this trying time. 14/10 (IG: deejayelgolden)

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath? Character isn't something you tell people about. It's something you live.
