Sooo, GoT rewatch? Yeah, GoT rewatch.

Saving money by selling downtown office buildings at a time when no one wants downtown office space. Superb strategy. Zero notes.

Airlines: We must limit passengers' alcohol consumption to prevent heightened tempers that could lead to arguments and fights. Also airlines: Of *course* we'll keep installing seats that recline!

GOP reps holding Town Hall meetings in their districts.

I never thought I'd relate to Michael Jackson, but 2025 is making me understand the desire for medical-grade anesthesia just to sleep each night.

My only hope that we'll be spared concentration camps is The Fourth Reich's disdain for organization and record-keeping.

So anyone who dares to defy this cult gets a primary challenge with bottomless funding from Elon? Funny how the GOP *loved* a Citizens United ruling that's now forcing them all to become shit-eating automatons. Bummer that civilization is destroyed in the process, but still a pretty hilarious joke.

Oh good we're all yearning for the decency and respectful patriotism of Richard Nixon.

Removing "End Racism" from the field is one thing, but the NFL's new Super Bowl goalposts miiiight go too far.

Oh no! I just checked Thesaurus-dot-com and they completely ran out of synonyms for "lies," "liars" and "lying" since cowardly @nytimes.com headline writers used them all.

Pete Hegseth is responsible for 67 more deaths than any drag queen.

The last ten days have been one of the most brutal years in American history.

🎶 You put your illegal executive order in! You put your illegal executive order out! You put your illegal executive order on hold and you shake it all about. 🎶 🎶 You do The Strokey-Jokey and you turn yourself around ... 🎶

Today is March 1795th, 2020.

DEMS 2024: "Trump is an existential threat to civilization who must be stopped at all cost! We're enlisting help from Taylor Swift to Dick Cheney in a desperate effort to salvage what's left of our democracy!!" DEMS 2025:

My most dubious parental achievement is reflected in our 8-year-old going around singing the Aqua Teen Hunger Force theme.

Summarize the last week's mood in one video of a legendary 1986 NFL penalty call. I'll start.

So have Nebraska trailer parks and Arkansas hollers been a non-stop party for the last the week? Like, is there anywhere in the country projecting a vibe other than the despondent malaise plaguing literate Americans?

So far quite happy after deleting Drudge and HuffPo bookmarks from browsers and unsubscribing from "BREAKING" email alerts and notifications. One day soon I'll wake up to learn we're at war with Belgium or that the MyPillow guy is our new Chief Justice, but it's a delightful break in the meantime.

Instagram: The platform for still photographs from actual people who are definitely personally known to you.

I'm so excited for a galactic salvage team to discover Earth and pose competing theories about our vast mountain ranges comprised of novelty popcorn buckets.

Pretty sure I burned over 2000 calories today unsubscribing from breaking news email alerts.

NFL game commercials are a good reminder that there is no police series premise too idiotic for CBS.

So very telling that @washingtonpost.com went with "storytelling" instead of "journalism." J-Bez is eager to defecate whatever narrative doesn't upset the 30% of voters offended by demonstrable facts.

(Regrettably) glancing at Twitter, it's clear that either Pete Hegseth was shredded by Dem Senators in today's hearing and there's no way he'll be be confirmed *OR* Hegseth destroyed his snowflake critics and will cruise to confirmation as the best Sec. of Defense EVER. *Definitely* one of those.

Am I the only one who, every time an Apple News alert dings, thinks "Is he dead? Are we finally done with this?"

I'm worried the Internet doesn't include enough videos of dudes cooking steak.

I fuckin' DARE you Canadians to annex Illinois. No seriously, I dare you! I mean it. You think I'm joking? Not fuckin' likely. Just DO it already! What are you waiting for? I'm begging you, Canada! We're all begging you. Please let us know if there's anything we can do to help get this done.

Peter: pall and bury. ☹️

Oh no Facebook is abandoning its air-tight fact-checking operation and commitment to verifiable news oh no.

"Harold and the Purple Crayon" features Zooey Deschanel as a department store employee with hidden musical talent paired with a man-child who appears in the real world wearing a funny outfit and using whimsical talents in search of his long lost his father. It's one snowball fight away from "Elf."

I can't imagine a larger chasm than that between public interest in the Golden Globes and the media's perception of public interest in the Golden Globes.

Forever heartbroken that we'll never get this buddy-criminal series.
