OMG, people! I’m really worried right now! Have you heard about the threat of Sleeper Cells that I just made up?! Scary stuff! 🙄

When I was a kid I used to think it was kind of ridiculous that the Stormtroopers walked around wearing their helmets all the time. Like, why did they need them on while on Tatooine, a planet with perfectly breathable air?! Now I get it. #UnmaskICE

Nothing. Fucking NOTHING from Chuck Schumer in response to Trump’s illegal acts drawing us into a wholly unnecessary war with Iran. The GOP’s leaders are psychotic. Our leaders might as well not even be there.

I just witnessed (but I’m proud to say, did not participate in) a conversation that ended with a person saying “I don’t care what articles you show me because I know what I believe and nothing is gonna change my mind.” The Post-Truth Era is a really frustrating time to be alive.

It’s really difficult to reason with people who think “If they didn’t want to get sent to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives without trial, then they should’ve filled out the proper paperwork” is a pretty solid ethical argument.

I just spent the last 20 minutes watching videos of Taylor Swift visiting kids in hospitals and HOLY HELL we could’ve chosen to be those people instead of all this.

I just saw someone suggest that Bonnaroo getting cancelled because of severe weather might be what gets people to finally take climate change seriously and, YOU GUYS, I swear if this is the thing…

“I think the world needs a lot of more young angry women.” Truer words have never been spoken, Greta.

Peaceful protest works in situations where you have a citizenry that doesn’t know what is happening to the oppressed, but would care if they did. We do not live in that situation. Stop telling people in L.A. they should sit back and take the blows in order to keep you safer.

They have BearCats and Black Hawks. The protesters have Lime scooters and skateboards. Don’t fucking tell me the response is proportionate.

L.A. is an awakening. People are waking up to the fact that the courts are not going to stop the masked police from kidnapping our neighbors. Congress isn’t going to keep our coworkers and classmates and friends safe.

If Breslow won’t even entertain the possibility of letting go of the manager of a team full of all-star players with a $200 million payroll that is 9 games back and in 4th place at the very beginning of June, maybe the issue isn’t Alex Cora. Maybe it’s Craig Breslow. #RedSox #FireTheFrontOffice

Alex Cora doesn’t have the fight in him, and we need a guy who’s willing to get escorted out right now. Cora is the Chuck Schumer of baseball.

Some day in the future will be the last day I ever see a Jordan Peterson quote posted on social media, and the saddest part is that I will have no way of knowing I am experiencing that moment and I will not pause to celebrate.

A program enacted by Reagan, that woke antifa socialist.

Mentioning your IQ during an intellectual debate is like holding up your Track & Field trophy 🏆 when someone challenges you to a fight. Yeah, cool, you have proof that you once excelled in a specific physical test. But if you hadn’t noticed, we’re not about to long jump over this issue. 🙄

We talk a lot about antibiotics as a relatively modern medical marvel, but we don’t hype steroids enough. We only started using corticosteroid therapy in the 1950s! Imagine getting sick in the early 1900s… “Weird cough. I don’t know, try some cocaine and maybe this heroin will help you sleep.” 🤕🏥🤷🏻‍♂️

This is so wild. Bro was really like: “So, Representative Crockett, you’re telling me that you BELIEVE this thing that is objectively, demonstrably true?! Preposterous!”

Has anyone—in the entire history of moving—ever once gotten behind the wheel of a U-Haul truck and not started humming “On the Road Again“ to themselves?

Removing the penny from circulation is one of the few Trump initiatives I actually support. That said, if we’re going to do it, we should be honest about why. It’s because they’re annoying. If it were really a cost of production issue, we’d ditch the nickel too, which costs about 14¢ to make.

I feel like something nobody tells you is how every day is just way too much day.

The Secretary of Homeland Security doesn’t know what Habeas Corpus is. Let that sink in for a minute. It’s not just that she doesn’t believe that this bedrock principle of free societies is sacrosanct… She. Does. Not. Know. What. It. Is. We are so cooked.

Someone who was angry because I insisted on answers from Dem leaders said: “Wish you were half as interested in holding Republicans accountable!” Sorry I wasn’t clearer. I want GOP leaders tried and prosecuted for treason and crimes against humanity. I’m just asking Dems to articulate their plans.
