Accidentally said “woo!” at the end of the organ postlude at church tonight like I was at the House of Blues or something

Wishing peace to everyone out there in BlueSky land and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.

Oh so she’s DELUDED deluded

Welp, your girl is out shopping on Christmas Eve again, when only the hard-core psychos are still out. I have no choice but to accept it, these are my people.

We’re almost there, Christmas celebrators, stay strong

something reminded me of this so now it's going to be stuck in my head for roughly a year and a half, I hope no one gets mad at me if it gets stuck in y'all's head, too, one of the premiere earworms of the 2020s

Christmas fucking miracle right here

Not now, haunted Victorian shoes

I’ve been thinking, and I realized the reason I feel so passionately about this is because I tried it in my own life. Going high, being unimpeachable, being the most reasonable, etc. And it left me vulnerable in ways I don’t care to talk about right now. Same thing happened to the country.

I am also that guy. The best streaming service, easily.

We’re almost there, Christmas celebrators, stay strong

Or even a giant horse beast. They just let you do it.

you cannot stop a united army of posters.

Honestly pretty impressed with the frequency w/which y’all get Caturday to trend

And the music’s really good, too.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1992: The “Archives of Terror” are discovered in a police station outside Asunción, Paraguay. The documents describe the fates of thousands who had been kidnapped, tortured and killed under the regime of Paraguayan dictator Alfredo Stroessner from 1954 to 1989. /1

As of today, I don't think it should be called the Streisand effect anymore. Congrats, Barbra, you're free.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

Look! A planet! It is topaz, with tangerine skies. It is in a galaxy far away. What a good planet.

So who uploaded the 60 Minutes clip to that app in Canada? Was it scheduled to go up and then they just forgot to cancel it?

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense

Just popped up on my phone…Christmas Eve 2020

He’s still a creep but I appreciate this

The 60 Minutes thing coming right after the Epstein Files redaction extravaganza…these people sure are working overtime to defend the indefensible. It won’t work forever.

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

Same, secondhand turntable, same.

Follow this thread everywhere it leads, you will not regret it. Magazines, forever, and ever, amen.

Hot garbage

Now listening! New to me but a Henry Miller reference is always going to get my attention.

Tag yourself I’m Jote

one thing that is kind of nice about trump is he just says the quiet part out loud yes, the idea is to drive house prices down with more supply, and yes, that means that some people are going to lose some unearned wealth

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

Remember when we used to watch Succession on Sunday nights on Twitter, that was fun

Years ago (maybe ten?) I was at a reading/Q and A with Jhumpa Lahiri and the interviewer asked her something — I forget what — and she replied, “I don’t accept the premise of your question,” & then clammed up, and they just moved on. I respected it so much and never forgot it.

Sheesh, who *isn’t* on Ozempic these days?

For the mah jongg group Christmas party tonight, my friend got me a baseball hat that says HTOWN in Luv Ya Blue colors and I am so happy.

This exhibit in Houston’s Rothko Chapel featuring excerpts from the newly released Epstein files is quite stunning.

This line, for real.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Ya’ll’s Epstein files jokes are funny

These Epstein files are wild
