The Venerable Sariputta one day asked the Buddha, "I have seen a bad post. I think I shall quote tweet it with my added commentary." The Buddha chuckled. "You may do so. You may make your own home as unclean as that of the pig sty. But do not complain when the pigs sleep in your bed."

Yeah I've got that OG Skyrizi, real psoriasis kush, leave you feeling clear and free. Ever go rollerblading in the summer? *Tapping ziploc bag* That's what this is.

Had to click through to see, it’s the godfather that they’re describing as a “53 year old classic with a 97% RT score”

Gotta start selecting a movie before I get high

You watch one video about like, relationship advice from someone who knows about attachment styles and YouTube starts sending you "How to Get Your Avoidant Ex to Realize You Were THE ONE (and That They Blew it for Good)" from Cindy Starlight

Oh, I see. That's my bad. When I said "I don't know what you're talking about," I was trying to make you feel embarrassed for knowing about such things, but instead you misconstrued it as an invitation to explain it to me and now I... Yes you're getting it. Now I have to run into my forgetting wall.

I'm purging my YouTube front page of brainless bullshit. No more deep dives into which Mario characters have been kissed, no more family guy compilations. YT: Wanna watch Brad Pitt meet Jonah Hill in Moneyball again? Okay ☺️

One of my memories from visiting NYC was waiting in line for tickets to Shakespeare in Central Park, and the guy in front of me pulled his phone up and google searched 'Babe Ruth' and I thought, yeah, I'm in the Big Apple all right. Yeah, I think it sounds like I'm in New York City.

Really upset at this toy they have for my nephew. A pretend remote is kinda weird in its own right but that's fine, like a toy telephone is. What bothers me is how they're normalizing the small, shitty ass Roku remote. He's gonna grow up thinking "asterisk" button is a normal function.

I don't truly think that using your phone a lot makes you stupid but someone asked me what my favorite songs are and for a second I wanted to Google "favorite songs" to remember

Thanking God today that my rabbi is with us for Easter today. His wound is still oozing blood but he's alive & we're thankful. The centurions who stabbed him are still roaming around Judaea. Perhaps around your loved ones. Happy Easter xx

If you're one of those people who watches thematically appropriate old movies during the holidays, consider Anthony Quinn in Barabbas this Easter. Not a schmaltzy movie, Barabbas the person kinda sucks.

[Foreboding vampire man] Urghh, Sookie! Vampires are... not like people! We... hunger. [Avuncular bartender] Sookie I don't like you messing with these vampires, the last three woman who did all ended up strangled to death. [Sookie Stackhouse] Haha, you just don't know WHAT it's like!

I think every American city has its own Little Brooklyn and I'm sure none of them compare to the actual Brooklyn but the way you know you're in it is if you see a mural of MF DOOM on the same block as a brewpub.

"An 85 overall used to mean something, you could win finals MVP as an 85 overall. Now Pascal Siakam is 90 overall. They're putting out 99 overall diamond legacy Kyle Lowry cards." Bernie Sanders: "Corporate interests have taken away the dignity that used to be afforded to mid tier role players."

Scrolling on here is like birdwatching. And when you see a great poster, it’s like appreciating a beautiful rare bird. Then someone replies to them like, “The president? You misspelled execrable tyrant,” and that is kind of like an after-market car alarm going off, causing wildlife to scatter

Imagine how dire things would have to get.

Your supernatural clairvoyance influencers fall into these camps: • Music festival patron • Rae Dunn collector • Cemetery ASMRtist • Fed up teenager But despite all their differences, they are all reading off the same bullet pointed list of clairvoyance facts so don't sweat it

Found a video of Howard Stern asking Trump about jacking off, where Trump describes it as "a lot of work that gets you nowhere." Which I think is one of the few patently untrue things you can say about jacking off. Also ignore video title and channel. youtu.be/8zZ3s2HfvrY?...

One of the simple pleasures of living your life on the Internet is coming across a well edited highlight reel of a player you love youtu.be/qWN_DPjEHeM?...

I'm a psychic vampire which means I can intuitively sense someone's vibe, and I hate when they're mad at me. That's like if you made a "normal" vampire suck blood that sucked. I mean like, blood that was bad. Obviously it's being sucked. So basically your energy right now is like shitty blood.

Chet, 33 BEST WAY TO MY HEART: Being fun IF LOVING THIS IS WRONG I DON'T WANT TO BE RIGHT: Reubens MY SIMPLE PLEASURES: Don't have time

[Calling from big landline phone from a beach island, wearing a linen shirt unbuttoned to the belly and enormous amber sunglasses. Impossibly suntanned skin cracking with my enormous smile] How are my stocks doing?

Oh good heavens, bluesky will simply not let me delete a nearly duplicate post I made by accident

Is this the weirdest looking NPC in ocarina of time?

Why are they like this. Why do they act like we're living in this sort of world?

I'm the guy who's always texting people slightly older than me things like "How good was John Wall?" I don't really care at all but they're going through a rough time

I've been growing a mustache out for like two weeks now and so far one of the resounding reactions has been "Didn't you always have one?" Which I'm optimistically taking as a sign that this makes it some form of self-actualization.

Listening to Deafheaven the right way, while flipping through my neighbor's copy of Architectural Digest that got put in my mailbox by accident.

Aggravating when people use the title of former gifted kid to describe being in an advanced reading class as a child and not because they were left at the doorway of a fire station as a baby. You feel anxiety about applying for jobs, I can't sleep unless I'm holding a neatly swaddled picnic basket.

I cut out sugar deliberately and got cravings so strong that I decided I actually needed to go to the store for sweets. But then sometimes I just don't eat any sugar without thinking about it and it's fine so I reckon that sometimes when I want a cookie I'll pout and make myself sick to get one.

Taking out the trash every week is not a virtue. There are many weeks where the trash buildup is minimal. During these weeks it is not a necessity to take the trash out to the curb. Work when it benefits you, doing something because it's societally ordained does not make you a stronger man.

It's the first night nice enough to sleep with the window open and my cat is reacting to the night air like when someone cuts themselves shaving in front of Dracula

I would never let another man look through my fridge

Doing the scene from Ghost where Patrick Swayze is guiding Demi Moore's hand while throwing clay but I'm showing my girlfriend how to do the screenshot shortcut to more easily clown on somebody in the group chats
