I just love how the sparkle of drag queens throughout the theater technically means he went to a drag queen story time.

Though: I wouldn’t necessarily write him completely off bc his well-thought, long-game creative trolling might just be the thing that works.

Yeah, but he’d keep your spirits up until things went horribly wrong.

This is how I felt about the WoW endgame at the point I stopped playing. It became impossible to get useful rewards unless you raided with others for more advanced loot, and people wouldn’t let you in the raid unless you met a certain Q score, to which I was like, no, fuck off. 😅

Oh I HATE multiplayer. There is only one exception to me enjoying playing a video game with another person and that’s playing Stardew Valley with my son. Even when I was playing WoW I was a PVE player who hated raiding. Just…that’s my “me time,” let me go get immersed and away from people awhile.

The Mountainhead on Netflix is pretty spot on, too.

…they’re all switching to AI for fact-checking, editing, translation…and in some cases, even REPORTING. 😒

And you could end veteran homelessness with just the cost of this so-called parade and the needless and illegal military deployment in LA.

“Disney would have been criticized if the workers weren’t put on leave…”
OH NO! NOT…CRITICIZED!
Article also saying Disney had “no choice.”
There is ALWAYS a choice. And I think bc these people are union members, the unions need to remind Disney of this fact. This is literally life and death.

They had better not be airing Andor and then siding with the Empire. We need confirmation.

We need to know if this is true. If so? Fuuuuuuuuck.

I saw The Beach Boys once: on the National Mall at the nation’s bicentennial celebration on July 4 in Washington, DC. I was 6 years old.

It feels kind of the same way it feels to ride the Carousel of Progress at Disney World where they’re talking and singing about the future and modern and progress but the animatronic people’s faces are falling off

I mean how did he think A MUSICAL THEATER CROWD would respond to him??? It shows how absolutely out of touch he is.

He could have gone on trend with floor tiles that heat when you trip a light switch, or treated the shower floor with a substance that prevents slippage. Added light, safety, and convenience. But no, this customer gets a $129k 1970’s museum exhibit.

Yeah her old jail stories are actually hilarious because like picture Christine Baranski getting thrown in the klink and you have some idea. 😆

And as for this remodel costing $129k? Please itemize that, my dude…

And that shower head looks way too high for anyone but Yao Ming to be able to just reach up and adjust, mid-shower. Lots of folks like those huge ones with multiple settings. Can’t do that here.

(I used it that once to demonstrate its unreliability to the college students I was lecturing. I DO NOT USE IT.)

Anyone looking to stay in the house for life won’t be able to. As we age, or become disabled…we become less able to (checks notes) pole vault into the shower. And there are no handles or bars of any kind for balance to prevent slippage. For me and my RA, this would be a death trap.

He’s just mad bc he was hoping to finally kick Mitch McConnell’s ass in the spoon and egg race before McConnell retires.

The right wing influencers are already screaming Soros and a few other foreign names but ofc providing no proof.

We are running out of any kind of expertise in this administration bc they’re either being fired for “loyalty concerns” or resigning when they have a conscience.

My mom is going to be in Europe next month and I worry they’ll mess with her on the way back bc she’s a boomer with a rap sheet for protesting (decades ago!)

Famed Pittsburgh Steeler Lynn Swann credited his success to ballet lessons. And there was nobody on earth going to question that guy’s masculinity.

His ChatGPT once told me, when I asked how to prepare a pair of flip-flop sandals as an entree at a dinner party, to marinate them in garlic, sauté them in olive oil, and serve with roasted fingerling potatoes and a nice Chianti. He can go to hell.

(And then they’ll sell smaller versions of the umbrella with gold-plated handles at the merch table for $500 each.)

“We’re gonna build, we’ll build a big umbrella, it’ll be yuge. We’ll have the Army Corps of Engineers build it. Because the parade, and they’re great guys, those guys. They will paint a big sun on the underside. So there will be no rain. It will go away. We’ll look up at the beautiful sunshine.”

Is it out of fear of a nuclear Iran, or because they need the troops to terrorize our citizens back at home?

I need GENERALS, and other leadership, past and present, to be speaking up.
Also: it’s supposed to thunderstorm, and even a light drizzle chased Trump away from Normandy. So maybe we’ll luck out?

I mean I’d be getting a way bigger kick out of his wife leaving him for Elon Musk if he wasn’t making the whole country suffer for it.
