The collection of bottles on my kitchen counter is so funny it’s like olive oil, salt, pepper, melatonin, bitters, tums, NyQuil, peanut butter, Wellbutrin, joint support, soy sauce…

ME: omg i have so much to do today BREAKUP MEMES: awww bless your heart

Casual Fridays are out, formal Fridays are in. We’re wearing ball gowns and long tailed tuxes. We’re calling for carriages and being announced every time we enter a room. We’re talking shit on the champagne and plotting against rival families, because that’s just what we do on Fridays now

You know when you hate your job but some juicy workplace drama between two really annoying coworkers started yesterday, so you’re actually looking forward to going into work for once just so you can watch them both self destruct while you and your bestie feed off of it? That’s today.

I need Nathan Lane and somebody even gayer than Nathan Lane to stage an adaptation of this on broadway pls

Honestly kind of fitting that this level of catty public breakup between two aging divas is happening during pride month

Kinda interested to see how this whole “two trust fund baby billionaires with savior complexes and borderline personality disorder trying to destroy each other” thing plays out

TIL there is a word in ancient Greek (Kakotherēs) that means "bad at summer" or "unfit for summer" and it pleases me to know that even thousands of years ago my people were like “if I don’t get some hoodie weather soon imma die”

I’m convinced most older alien abduction stories were just people who had really bad adhd and didn’t know it. Like oh you blinked and 3 hours just disappeared and all of a sudden it was dark out and you didn’t remember how you got to your kitchen? Like that is called Thursday.

Idk why "brainwash" gets such a bad rap like I would truly LOVE a brainwash right now. Like REALLY get in there and clean out all those intrusive thoughts and stress dreams and whatever's left of Mambo #5, honestly name your price

If your significant other doesn’t encourage you to steal every dog you meet, are you really being supported?

I feel like half the fun of going to the movies these days is just sitting in a dark room without your phone for 2 hours

Sometimes I pretend I'm about to delete an app just to watch them all tremble in fear

I see your fear of being asked to share a fun fact about yourself, and raise you your new fear of being asked to freestyle rap a fun fact about yourself

Float like a butterfly Sting like a bee Scream endlessly like a locust Ruin somebody's whole summer like a mosquito It’s whatever

How would you all describe the shape of Momo? Like geometrically speaking, what is he?

Did you know that today is “Teach Something Tuesday?” It’s true! That means you (yes YOU) are invited to use this post to share a cool fact or some neato knowledge or really ANYTHING you know that we (probably) don’t! So take a moment and teach us something today!

ME: really dude? white socks with a tuxedo? CAT: …

I miss when the internet was just a place where we could easily find facts we were trying to find and as payment we’d have to watch a few seconds of a Rick Astley video every now and then

You can give me a compliment but I’m gonna make you type it in using only your remote control, so that should be fun for neither of us

ME [coming back to therapy after a bunch of really bad things happened and it turned out all that anxiety we've been working on this whole time was really just intuition]: ah-HA! THERAPIST: ... ME: are you mad at me?

Bury me in my pajamas for that is when I truly lived

Welcome to margaritaville, my name is Frank and I’ll be taking care of you today, I’ve already SCREAM taken the liberty of putting in an order of French fries for the SCREAM table and our specials are…

When I ask someone if they’re mad at me over and over until they say yes

ME: shoo! shoo! go on! MONDAY: *confused hissing*

I do like that the sun is out later in the day now, but I resent the implication that I should be doing things until like 8:27

Did you know that it's Sunday and on Sundays we do show-and-tell and you (yes YOU) are cordially invited? Its true! So show us something neat and tell us about it! Something you made, found, or bought. Family, pets, places. Anything really! Go on! Show us!

Sundays are for playing on your phone and calculating how long you could survive on free Costco samples and stress-free vibes if you just never went into work again

The name you give your cat is “cat.name” and the name you actually call your cat is “cat(v2)thirdedit[clean] notes/proofedbutlowres(notcleared) quickpass[internalonly].name”

I don’t know what a Labubu is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

It. Is. Time. For. Walkies. Dad.

I want my coffee so strong that the mosquitos start catastrophizing their day

“House arrest” always seemed like something somebody made up to get out of plans they made a while ago. Like one night some panicked introvert slapped a chunky bracelet around their ankle and was like “yeah man sorry but legally I can’t go” and honestly…brilliant

I always give meteorologists the benefit of the doubt because I can’t imagine how hard it is to accurately predict the weather, but also if you tell me there’s gonna be a thunderstorm tonight and there’s no thunderstorm then you’re dead to me

Our house is finally done being baby proofed! Reinforced locks, high tech camera system, brand new gates. I straight-up DARE a baby to try and get in here now!

May your diet cokes be crisp and your hoodie strings always be even

RIGHT BRAIN: ooh we have extra money in our account! First stop, bookstore. Then the cheese shop, obviously, and then… LEFT BRAIN: we don’t have extra money, we just forgot to pay our… RIGHT BRAIN:
