Good luck with the religious tyranny I guess, call us when it's over USA and we'll pop back over for a vacation

Umami!

It’s not box wine, it’s cardboardeaux.

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

This is the make shit up machine, it makes shit up. We've made it so that it absolutely cannot tell the truth reliably. We will now integrate it into every part of your daily life.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

There’s an antiques emporium in Norwich of such unfathomable strangeness every visit produces fresh gasps of bewilderment and terror. Recent finds: 1. Mounted photo print of depressed steam train driver (£1)
