Nephew requested we make pasta with meat sauce for the first Shabbat after Passover. I upped the ante and we're meeting up early to make short rib ragout and will play Catan while it braises. The easiest time to be an adult to a kid is when a great treat for them lines up with what you want.

damn what happened to cause this

She will not be elected president in 2028 much faster than she was not elected president in 2024.

The hungry red panda at the Prospect Park Zoo? Adorable. The HungryPanda delivery app scamming small businesses? Not adorable. So they will be paying $580,000 back. We'll keep pursuing companies that take advantage of New Yorkers, and we'll keep asking if we can pet a red panda just for a second.

Lovin’ it, I am.

There is no McTry.

Reminder that people lost their jobs for saying Trump and his administration were racist

Really can't emphasize enough that my main use for this site is not to be Taken Seriously By Media but rather to post that, in the original 1957 book, the Grinch is at least 53 years old. The Grinch has seen two world wars and a great depression. He doesn't need to hear shit from you

FRIED CHICKEN AND WAFFLES ARE TWO GREAT FOODS THAT DO LITTLE IF ANYTHING FOR EACH OTHER

"Luddites" is a good term for those who oppose AI because the Luddites weren't against *all* technology, just forms of technology that they knew would pay workers less and turn out a shittier product

This is driven by a huge drop in 13-17 year olds getting knocked up with no recourse so just take that into consideration

oh did someone show her the letterboxd reviews

Remember the "I don't really care, do u?" jacket? Melania Trump has a truly amazing understanding of optics (derogatory).

It only took them what, two weeks?

Say what you will about Melania Trump.

I don't believe "distraction" strategy is real but it is kind of morbidly amusing they fucked up the Iran War so badly they're trying to change the subject to Epstein

"The Scottish island of Summerisle, home of the best fruit in Britain. The first thing you notice? No churches. The farmers here practice a fascinating form of pre-Christian worship…and I just learned I'll be playing the lead role in their annual May Day festival. First stop: my costume fitting."

As aside, this is one speech Melania didn’t plagiarize from Michelle Obama.

Hey, the current First Lady was at minimum on friendly social terms with the most notorious sex trafficker of minors in recent American history, but at least she didn't make a concerted effort to get minors to eat more produce.

who could have imagined that the newspaper owned by the ceo of amazon would suggest you piss in a bottle, for efficiency

Subway Takes: So what's your take? Me: The Subway Takes thing is annoying. Subway Takes: Hundred percent... wait. Me: It's just tired shtick now. Nothing personal. [awkward silence] MTA announcer: This train is being held momentarily due to a police investigation in the next station.

seeing that steven soderbergh plans on using “a lot of AI” in his upcoming movies

Wise words from Spain's Prime Minister: “The momentary relief cannot make us forget the chaos, the destruction, and the lives lost. The govt of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket. What is needed now: diplomacy, international law and PEACE.”

Me when I see a restaurant is charging $135 for a rib steak or a whole fish:

This is no way to live, man

hey if you think you're mad now just wait til tomorrow morning when we find out who all made money off this

The new VERY hagriographic Michael Jackson biopic starring MJ's nephew is out at the end of the month. But back in 2004 an unauthorised and EQUALLY flattering biopic was made in Canada. Here is a clip and I promise you have NO idea where it's going. I haven't done a single edit here.

I’m still in awe over all the dumb fuck law firms, tv networks, and universities that caved to Trump. More or less everyone who has stood up to Trump has won and everyone who didn’t has suffered an endless series of humiliations.

The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.

JD Vance opens the door to his Budapest hotel room wearing an open robe and a cigarette, Mazzy Star blasting and sofa glistening with lube in the background. "Sorry, guess I couldn't hear my phone. Gee, that's a lot of missed calls. What's going on?"

Two weeks is a much more reasonable amount of time in which to remove a President from office than one day. Time to at least seriously try.

I got engagement on a post here yesterday. I don't recommend it. People are weird, man.

your holiness it is time to use your powers and send jd vance to hell

"If you remove him you get Vance." You're familiar with Donald J Trump's foreign policy where we remove a country's leaders one by one until we get to one we can do business with? No reason impeachment can't work the same way

We gotta bring back the productive kind of national shame. Not the throwing up your hands and going “what can you do, we suck” kind but the “I’ll be GODDAMNED if I let the fucking FRENCH have better TRAINS” kind

After Trump's latest genocidal utterances, I'm posting this again from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

I do feel like a semicolon might’ve been helpful

I can't believe one day after the "Is there a path to redemption for Louis CK?" discourse, we're getting a whole bunch of people rushing to treat Tucker Carlson as redeemable.

I am here for messaging that the THREAT alone - regardless of if it's carried out or walked back - should end his presidency. The die is already cast. You cannot wield the power that man has and say that kind of shit.

if Trump nukes Iran it will be because no one powerful in america has ever been seriously punished for anything

Sigh. Always the regime changer, never the regime changed.

"it's giving war crime" in a southern accent is just going to play on loop in my head the rest of the day

i will vote for dems who say this stuff and act on this stuff! i will give them money! i will tell my friends to do the same! it is what i want from government more than anything else right now!

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

Tried to overthrow the government and the government's response was "we need to be very careful about how we respond to this because we don't want to upset the people who supported him trying to overthrow the government"

Aside from it being important to prevent an unspeakable war crime and global catastrophe, the funniest time to remove Trump from office is while JD Vance is campaigning in Hungary.
