only one way the Knicks can gameplan to stop Tyrese Haliburton: grind that Family Matters tape, baby

tfw you figure out that the godzilla from mount fuji is a cyborg

one of the most insane normalized aspects of our political climate is politicians going after their own constituents in the name of anti-wokeness. what are we doing here

I know he's younger than the previous pontiff, but even so, this is pretty impressive stuff given the limited time he'll have had in nets recently.

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Anyone else see a sly-looking elf in a pointy hat doing a kick-flip on a skateboard, or is it just me?

hello 👋 professional writer here. it's fine to use "your" and "you're" interchangeably. most readers will understand what you're trying to say either way, and you shouldn't have to placate people who won't read between the lines

i like how the knicks' celeb fans aren't there because PR people told them to sit courtside. they're there because they have a legit sports illness and refused to stop being knicks fans even when their partners and/or therapists told them it wasn't a healthy use of their time

Abba Against the Odds on Netflix is a great documentary. I only know that Abba's music absolutely rules but nothing else about them so I learned A LOT. They seem to be happy which is great! Also made me appreciate this sketch more youtu.be/20iB2jyB4Ec?...

I cried twice while rewatching Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. I just really believe that Rachel McAdams loved Iceland that much.

Yrs ago, I overheard N.C. Gov. Jim Hunt speaking to a young man, who grew up in Raleigh & had started his career & family in another state. Gov. Hunt said, "I hear you're coming home to N.C.! Sort of, said the young man. "Sort of?" exclaimed Gov. Hunt. What do you mean? Are you moving to Charlotte?

reading how easily and quickly someone managed to direct groks responses really gives me a lot of confidence in the reliability of these things

not only is ichiro not banned for life from baseball, he’s basically got the equivalent of a key to the mariners ballpark and can use it any time. you’ll see him out there jogging the outfield by himself on a random tuesday morning

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Does literally anyone except startup founders want an everything app? Like a single person anywhere? Who are these for?

The media’s inability to state facts when it comes to Republicans (and Trump) is partially how we got here. The plane is a corrupt violation of the U.S. constitution (not to mention a security risk). This is a fact. Full stop. It’s not up for debate with weasel words like “raises concerns”

Give me one good reason why I shouldn't pull the trigger on buying this house right now www.zillow.com/homedetails/...

Postal services are infrastructure. Highways don’t make profit either.

“I asked chatGPT-“ ok, and I asked Tinsel, and she said you’re an uninspired, vapid dork who needs a computer to think for them.

So over for you hoes

As of yesterday, Polymarket was basking in the press coverage from nearly every major news outlet on Earth as the leading indicator of who would be the next pope. Then the guy tracking at 0% won. Maybe we should stop using degenerate crypto gamblers as a source.

i bought some new shoelaces

you know who else came from chicago and was on "a mission from god"

They are not special

Vanilla Sprite Zero is the best soda

Cardinals walking around Rome with their “I Voted” stickers

tanking conclave by bringing a Wii and copy of Wii Sports in with me

Breaking: Falcons DC Jeff Ulbrich has been fined $150,000, 500 Hail Marys, and 250 Our Fathers after his son Jax pranked Cardinal Matteo Zuppi to tell him he had been selected as Pope

It’s TikTok thread time

Took the kids to a protest over this guy back in FEBRUARY, gonna tell them this is what happens when you tell losers to get their act together

Hey this sucks ass

I could just sit down and look at Mongolia's landscape and clouds for hours. Just absolutely gorgeous.

Our PPV event "Who Would Win A Fight Between 5 Interns And An Emu?" was canceled after our interns googled "The Emu War Of 1932 and Their Ability To Shrug Off Machine Gun Fire"

There were so many more people at the screening of Sinners I saw tonight compared to last week and the movie started 30 minutes later tonight. Go see this movie on the big screen y'all.
