If it helps, the moon is slowly moving away from Earth, so humans just happened to arise on Earth at the right time to enjoy the best solar eclipses.

Honestly, do you expect the staff of Waffle House to keep track of every disoriented person who stumbles in asking where they are?

TV shows need lower stakes and shorter stories.

Will be blocking the Wolfe Tone Bridge until my demands for the Government to make the City Direct buses actually run on schedule are met.

In fairness, I think anyone can create an antipope. You can even name yourself one, if you want. It's practically an American tradition: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_B...

Easy ask, happy to support

I appreciate how hard the photographer must have tried to get a photo of Trump with bunny ears.

If you don't like people who buy $34 burgers, you can even campaign for a special "fancy burger tax" to help cover the cost of childcare, if you want!

"Here's a milkshake" (note: you must actually provide milkshakes, otherwise, this phrase just creates more interruptions)

I know I have become middle aged, because I have strong opinions about which grocery stores have the best of each food.

There were times, especially early in my PhD, when I might spend a week on research only to realise I've gone in the wrong direction. An LLM might have fixed that but then I would have never developed the skills that allow me to know very quickly if a source will be useful, which I currently rely on

"Land Cruiser" sounds like something a sovereign citizen would call their car, in an attempt to argue they don't need a license. "No officer, I'm not driving my car, I'm traveling in my land cruiser"

Slept in my They Might Be Giants t shirt and woke up as James K Polk.

Started watching NewsRadio again, and that's another amazing pilot: "*answers phone*" What is it?... Well, make it quick, I'm telling a guy what makes him special to me... Nah, it's work related".

Just started re-watching Newsradio. Excellent show. It has a young Joe Rogan as a conspiracy theorist w who likes to look manly, and I feel like if someone had sat Joe down and explained this was a joke, our current reality could be very different.

There should really be a Poirot story where there's a murder at some quaint hotel, and one of the guests happens to be Flemish, and Poirot will not stop insisting that that guy must be the murderer.

I think all dorks should learn about Jon Mikl Thor, who just kept pursuing dreams, no matter how outlandish, and was much more successful than he had any right to be.

"I asked ChatGPT" Yeah well I asked my 2 year old

I mean, on the practical side, you get the full website on your laptop. I always feel like I'm missing things on the phone. On the vibes side, laptops are for real stuff, phone is for fun/on the go stuff. This is obvious.

Witch-King: It is true I let Sauron trick me and bind me to his service, but I did get a prophecy that no man can kill me, so I'm basically immortal. Joe Rogan: Wow dude, that's crazy, so nothing can kill you then. Amazing.

People talk a lot about the joy of an infant's smile. People don't talk enough about the dread that same smile can inspire when, after a 4 am feeding, your baby, instead of going back to sleep, props himself up on your chest and gives you a big, ready-to-play grin.

Why is anyone reporting on this? "Collison brothers commission research declaring them geniuses who shouldn't have to pay taxes" should really be the headline.

I do not know the name of the song. It was a song the singer was singing at her boyfriend's ex, about how she (the singer) had won and was also much prettier. My college roommate loved it and I hated everything about it.

Watching US real estate shows on mat leave. These would not work in Ireland. Things in Ireland are like: "So there is a curse on the house, one person will be murdered by a ghost every year during the brightest full moon, so the current bid is only 30,000 over list price, which is very reasonable."

Every accusation is a confession.

I mean, Elon Musk is both a pronatalist who says he believes underpopulation is a serious problem, and a man responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths through the closure of USAID. If there's a way to square that circle without racism, I'd like to hear it.

Yes, McCarthy should have gone farther. He should have eaten 2 sticks of butter a day to help him drink. And drunk even more. If he'd really put in the effort, he could have died before 45. (Honestly, what kind of sad, pathetic hero is McCarthy?)

An army of supr powerful water guns.

Dethklok has performed actual concerts, despite being entirely fictional and from another reality.

As it turns out, freedom's just another word for being able to walk to the grocery store.

The clocks are about to change, even though the EU voted in 2019 to stop changing them. Just a reminder to pester your MEP to put a stop to this very annoying practice.

According to The Discourse, people aren't reading books anymore, and as someone who generally gets through a book a week, I have to ask: what are the rest of you doing with your spare time? Genuinely curious, because I already spend too much time on social media and YouTube.

Man, they really are putting AI in everything.

I have used the missiles that were in the arsenal and which you were probably saving for Russia Forgive me they were powerful so shiny and so deadly

After losing in court one can now safely mention that the Müller brand of milk products is owned by an AfD (Germany's officially declared "extreme right wing" party) supporting billionaire. Whose giant family relocated to Switzerland in 2003 btw, to avoid 30% inheritance tax when he passes.

I've been watching way too many home renovation shows on maternity leave. I'm going to start a show where people explain everything that's wrong with their house to me, and I explain that actually, they'll be fine living with it.

Hey, if we built that One World Government right wingers are always warning about, we would all have gold in everything.

Man, this new breed of American royalty sucks. Bring back Emperor Norton, the only king I will acknowledge! (Who was not a billionaire, and didn't want to down society.)

Grapefruit. Taste awful, one of the most common types is the result of radiation experiments, and it had that terrible fad diet.

I've been watching a lot of Winnie the Pooh with my toddler, and now my personal headcanon is that Rabbit is non-binary. I will not be taking questions.

I’ve found it, I’ve found the worst take

Can I go after the rich for other reasons, like personal spite? (And because eliminating billionaires is good policy, but mostly the spite thing)

notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich

“is there a technology that the left is excited about?” Trains. We love trains, actually

Monoclonal antibodies are also pretty exciting. Very high tech.

No, you can't. You cannot trust AI to analyze data. You can't know that it won't just spit back some plausible numbers at you.

I think all of us should, occasionally, look at our lives and ask: would I be the villain in a Charles Dickens novel? For this guy, the answer is clearly yes, and he seems fine with that.

This is worse if you're extremely short sighted, because I have to carefully examine the taps with my glasses on, and hope I remember everything with them off, with I can see any details.

I feel like every group mentioned here is going to be shocked to learn they share a common culture. It's not like entire wars have been fought over this point or anything.
