If this is an attempt to stop me from calling your office and yelling at the nice boy who answers the phone that you're being a useless sack of shit, I have news for you.

Are you affiliated with Northwestern, UW-Madison, or U of I (Urbana-Champaign or Chicago)? Have you been impacted by federal funding freezes? Has the vibe deteriorated on campus? Do you want to talk about it? pls DM me or email at [email protected]

My bitch of a calico cat has correctly identified the sound of typing as the sound of me not paying attention to her and will sit by my chair and SCREAM at me til I stop and pet her, get yourself some cats, it's fucking awesome for productivity and also anxiety.

I'd been wondering what she was up to.

Imagine if instead of "caught in a political frenzy" this headline said, accurately, that she and her husband were being attacked by the American right.

Thank God we didn't keep calling these people weird.

Also "firebrand" when we mean "lunatic bigot."

Hear me out: Keanu

"Warfighter." Name a dude "Markwayne" and he thinks he can just mush any two words together.

If you remember ALL OF SCI FI EVER, do not fuck the robots.

Right-wing American Catholics *really* do not get how much right-wing American Evangelicals hate them.

Speaking of cash and the apocalypse, you know what the new currency's gonna be? That no one talks about? Shoes. Shoes and boots. I know a shitload of people who took up farming or sourdough during Covid, and absolutely no one who became a cobbler.

When I first read this I thought he said $300 and I was gonna say dude, old people, old people carry wads of cash around, but not even my grandpa had that much squirreled away. Does she know something about the FDIC that we don't?

FUCK YEAH it's about time.

I have had, and continue to have, many conflicts with the church I was raised in. This Pope, though the leader of all that, did many brave and iconoclastic things as the leader in his lifetime. I have more respect for him than most of his peers in power across the globe.

If this guy killed Kennedy we would still owe him a fair trial so what is this horseshit?

There is one way out.

OH MY GOD

Damn son, well done.

Favourite protest sign of the day - #handsoff #protest #resist

vance going to the vatican and the pope sending jeremy from human resources to meet with him is such a fucking dagger

this is Vatican-speak for "fuck that guy"
