Such a phenomenal movie, had my daughter in tears. Everything from the emotions to the jokes to the animation that felt like half computer and half painting. Well done, DreamWorks. #TheWildRobot #Peacock

We're driving in the car when my daughter sees a Hooters restaurant out the window. Her: "Ugh." Me: "They actually just filed for bankruptcy." Her: "Good. I've never been there, but the whole concept is disgusting."

Posted something similar on my Instagram Stories and one of my MAGA acquaintances messaged me to say all of these federal workers have second jobs so it's not cruel. Just...huh? Where do these people get this nonsense? The mental gymnastics these people perform to defend these clowns is remarkable.

I only know two or three seriously intelligent people that are hardcore MAGA. The majority of the cult that I personally know are not that bright.

Absolutely loved the third Sonic installment. It was non-stop fun action from beginning to end and filled with nods to the video games. #Sonic3 #Paramount+

You know you're parenting right when 'Bohemian Rhapsody' comes on the car radio and your daughter knows almost all of the words because she sings along with you. πŸ₯²

MAGA thinks just because Donald Trump and Elon Musk are insanely rich, they are brilliant. I worked at an investment bank and a hedge fund for 17 years combined and let me tell you, your intelligence only takes you so far. It's your ability to be ruthless and cutthroat that takes you to the top.

Man, fuck the Zuck. Late Stage Capitalism is nothing but zero empathy and extreme greed.

About time.

This is absolutely repugnant. So many government workers are losing their jobs and headed to the unemployment line, while Elon Musk was celebrating this by wielding a chainsaw at CPAC. Further proof they don't give a fuck about you.

Everything that MAGA was warned about, from Project 2025 to Trump cozying up to Russia to this administration acting like Nazis by trying to bully countries into being annexed, has happened. And yet their go-to response is, "At least we finally have a president who can string a sentence together."πŸ™„

The first two songs (The Siege and Oxygen) on Lacuna Coil's new album 'Sleepless Empire' are fucking bangers. Andrea Ferro and Cristina Scabbia are on point with their interplaying metal vocals. Can't wait to see them live in Brooklyn this April. 🀘

At two seasons with eight short episodes each, this was a funny binge-worthy show. Was cool to see Omar J. Dorsey and DJ Qualls on the same screen again like in 'Road Trip' back in 2000. Sucks though that it was canceled this month, so no real closure. #Bookie #MAX

Donald Trump signed an executive order allowing only the attorney general or himself to interpret the meaning of laws. This is some dictator bullshit. GUILLOTINE!

It's wild that Trump's handling of the pandemic was a major reason he lost in 2020, and yet the pandemic also helped him win in 2024. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Patrick Mahomes was so shook from that Super Bowl beatdown that he changed up his hairstyle.

I didn't expect to watch this movie and get a liberal vs. conservative plot in the church. You just can't escape modern politics. #Conclave #Peacock

Finally got around to watching 'Clerks III' and damn, that ending. 😒

Did you know that as an adult with nothing better to do on the weekend, you can just take a nap? 🀯

Purchased tickets for Liberty Science Center general admission and their Titanic exhibition tomorrow. Two adults + two kids = $146 πŸ₯΄

Just bought my tickets to see Demetri Martin in New Jersey in June and β€œWeird Al” Yankovic at MSG in July. πŸ™ŒπŸ»

A bit wordy, but still better than Gulf of America.

I hated these Tiger handheld electronic games. I never knew what the fuck I was doing. πŸ˜†

When guys send birthday greetings to each other:

I did not expect to hear Saquon Barkley on Howard Stern this morning.

Kansas City Super Bowl hangover, please.

Why is MAGA all of a sudden fine with paying higher prices because of tariffs to put America first, but they refuse to pay higher prices so minimum wage employees can earn a livable wage? πŸ€”
