The Chiefs could lose by 50 and still not have taken the biggest L of the night. Kendrick looked right into that camera on "Say Drake, I hear you like em young."

Imagine calling the fire department because your house is burning down, and the fire truck shows up hours later and then the firefighters say "Let's see how this fire plays out before we just rush in to start putting it out." That's the #Democrats.

Ok, damn. I just meant I was waiting for a Jimmy trade. This is like they sent a rescue helicopter for a stubbed toe.

The best analogy I can make is to think of a sport you don't follow. You might occasionally be made aware of some event or person within that sport, but that might be your lone data point about that sport. "Doesn't Shohei play for the Angels?" is "Didn't Biden make groceries expensive?"

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social Just wanted you to know that I'm listening to part 1 of you two discussing "The Better Angels of Our Nature" and you say "You don't have a lot of domestic constituencies for 'America must take over Canada'". Ah, the halcyon days of 11 months ago.

If Belle from #BeautyandtheBeast was a real one, she would have seen those living dishes and liberated them from their aristocratic oppressor. I guess all her reading didn't include anything about the class struggle, because she's no friend of the proletariat candlesticks. In this essay I

Does anyone have any kid-friendly stand-up comedy recommendations? Profanity is fine, but I want the jokes to be things kids could get. For reference: James Acaster, Nate Bargatze, and Alex Edelman have been hits. Jim Gaffigan didn't land. #standupcomedy #standup #comedy

On a recipe for white chocolate peppermint cookies that said "if you don't like peppermint, you can just not add it." If you don't like peppermint, why did you click on the recipe with peppermint in the fucking title, Susan?!

Happy coronation day to all the #Survivor fans who celebrate. If she doesn't win, final tribal will be the least impressive trio since Survivor 43.

This is precisely why the inevitable economic damage and 1920s-esque levels of inequality that we're about to experience won't have the electoral impact that it should. The people who are causing it will blame other factors, and people who don't pay enough attention will believe them.

My kid, after watching an episode of #Survivor, says "Why do they call it that? They're not even actually surviving. The camp counselor keeps giving them food and taking them on field trips." That's camp counselor Jeff Probst, if that wasn't clear.
