Every time there’s a Reddit outage, I think: …Did it happen?

Why are we surprised the rapist is blaming Ukraine for being invaded? As he keeps talking about wanting their minerals? Yeah, no different from saying “Just look how she’s dressed.”

Just saw a study that said Google searches for "how to move away from the United States" have gone up 2400% in our house alone. Concerning.

"I would say that it’s pretty standard when you’re downsizing government, you make cuts, you assess those cuts. You see who needs to be rehired, you see who needs to be kept, who needs to be reevaluated." It's absolutely insane that CUTS are the first step, and ASSESSMENT is the second one.

Educated southerners know where the apostrophe goes in “y’all” and why.

I’m sure all the folks that bitch and moan when sports gets political is up in arms over that waste of taxpayer money at Daytona yesterday. …No? They’re all super OK with it? Huh… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Watching the SNL50 concert. Eddie Vedder was in the middle of Eddie Veddering. My wife asked what was going on. I explained that what he does, he’ll just go into a story mid-song, like Springsteen. She thanked me for warning about this before we see Pearl Jam in May.

If #AEW ever does a Max-exclusive show, it better have this intro. youtu.be/GjYDBLnHE1Y?...

Y'ever take one look at RFK Jr's dead, lifeless eyes and think, man, the worm must've gone right for the ocular control center of the brain.

Now's the time, Little Brittle. #RFK youtu.be/C96P9ei1Q-k?...

Where was this Mitch McConnell two impeachments ago??!?

We're so cooked.

Scam texts are wild, y'all. A message from a Philippines-based number asking me to pay unpaid tolls in a state I've never been to. I don't understand how folks fall for these. *looks around* ...Actually, yeah I do.

Just saw someone call the current admin the Nerd Reich.

So... Current DEFY world champ Ricky Starks is now signed to WWE. Say, remember when WWF-contracted wrestler Taz wrestled WCW-contracted wrestler Mike Awesome for the ECW world title on an ECW show? Just sayin'... @mattfarmer93.bsky.social has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever. 🤣

This is the correct response to all popular music, beginning the day you turn forty. I too hope the young people had, and will continue to have fun.

if i text you this just know you’re cooked

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

Yay! State-run media!

We've reached the "but he's just a widdle baby" phase of normalizing Leon's minions.

One of these days, he’s gonna sign an EO that actually helps his base instead of hurts his “enemies”.

Segment on local news about the rise in people raising chickens amidst the increase in egg prices, and as a former resident of Portland, Oregon, I just have to say, fuck all y’all. Gave us shit for being urban-farming hippies, and now look at ya. Fuck outta here.

It's literally the only thing I remember about that game. :( #BearDown

I dunno, it just seems like one side is playing by the rules with no real means to enforce them, and the other is just looting the room. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Upgrading this to 2 weeks.

Imagine the burglars broke into the Watergate complex in broad daylight but instead of stealing opposition-party secrets they were stealing the PII of everyone in the country, and multiple sources reported these crimes in real time. That's what Leon and his minions did at USAID this weekend.

“Run the country like a business” has morphed into “run the country like a tech company”, and as someone that has worked in tech for decades, that scares the shit out of me.

100% of fantasy league commissioners would have vetoed that trade.

Just read a theory that said the current president of the United States asked the new Mavs’ owners to make that deal as a “fuck you” to Cuban, and under normal circumstances, I’d scoff. But, nowadays… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My question coming out of #WWERoyalRumble: does Jey run it back against Gunther, or does Roman try to manipulate Jey into giving him the shot?

Oh, jeez, thanks for the reminder, Apple Health. #RIPScout

We don't talk enough about how 4chan is a major source for all the bullshit going on right now. It spawned a generation of folks that shitposted about right-wing ideology, followed by a generation of folks that took it seriously. Gamergate began there. Its "success" laid out the playbook for MAGA.

Radio station doing a double-shot weekend — two songs in a row by the same artist. They played “Boys of Summer” by Don Henley and followed it with “Take It Easy” by the Eagles. Like… I guess? Why not pick a song where Henley sang lead? What’s next, “Sussudio” followed by “Carpet Crawlers”?
