POV: You're 16, believe being in advanced placement math class means you're a once in a generation genius, and have just discovered Reddit.

men who dressed like this from 2008 - 2012 had preppy menswear blogs

Become ungovernable.

Met a dude from the Internet for a beer, found out it was trivia night, so we stuck around, played, and fucked around and got a perfect score. Please, everyone, hold your applause

This is one of the funniest videos I've ever seen in my life

Sorry but this is #DawsonsCreek's representation of a Boston gay bar in 1999

It would rule if she was in the senate

I tried to watch some "West Wing" last night thinking it would be a nice escape from the current reality, but it took 5 minutes for it to feel more like it was taunting and mocking me from the past.

I know this might sound crazy, but there is one thing we could do: Start an online campaign to get Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and Lana Del Rey to cover "Slam" by Onyx.

Just told my 10yo daughter about Big Balls. She had tears in her eyes. And then she did the Wakanda pose and said "#Ballskanda forever"—which is the sort of pop culture cross-over I can celebrate.

Choose where your experience starts and ends, but OutKast has five 10/10s in a row

We used to be a country, a proper country

"PORQUE?! PORQUE?!" I shout, dropping to my knees on my driveway as I have to shovel today because my snow blower won't start

"PORQUE?! PORQUE?!" I shout, dropping to my knees on the beach as the Mavs somehow win it all this year after trading Luka

"PORQUE?! PORQUE?!" I shout, dropping to my knees on the beach as Emilia Perez pulls off a Green Book at the Oscars

kanye this kanye that kan ye all just shut up about him forever

Sometimes I'll just make thumbnail graphics for YouTube videos that don't exist.

elon musk is scheduled to throw out the first pitch at your favorite baseball team's opening day while wearing a t shirt from your favorite band in his ongoing effort to insert himself into and singularly ruin every aspect of your life

It's a good thing he made A Real Pain last year so we can collectively disassociate him as Zuck

If they wanted to take over the country, they only had to wait like three weeks until every technocratic nerd was unreachably distracted. They fundamentally do not understand us, and that is why they will lose.

I'm sorry but there has to be some shenanigans to this Luka trade. The NBA seeing declining ratings for the first time in 20 years and facilitating sending a young superstar to the Lakers is the oldest trick in their book.

I loved that part in Between The Bars feat. Travis Scott where it goes like "Drink up Baby (IT'S LIT)/ Look at the stars (STRAIGHT UP)"

God has abandoned us

I went to San Francisco and not a single person I saw was eating MFin Rice A Roni.

I just know that someday soon, when it is pleasant outside and I'm on the brink of losing it, I will post something like "doing wind sprints to cope with this insanity." And when that day comes, know that you've been warned, and that you can QT this to me to dunk on me.

There is a calming innocence to the irreverence of the stump party. The stump speaks to us all, yearning for freedom and catharsis. And also, swinging an axe is pretty fucking cool

great question

ELMER FUDD: hey dere Dewiwah,

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.

Lovely day to be flying out of DCA. My flight is scheduled to take off as planned, but it's been a stressful day to say the least

I didn't get around to getting a picture of my "I Voted" sticker before I had to board my morning flight to DC, but I was at least happy to vote for @doronclark.bsky.social today!

My feed's all full of enthusiasm for Minneapolitians voting in the special election for @doronclark.bsky.social and the sunshine is helping on an otherwise very dark day in national politics.

This looks like the lamest frat party on campus

Come my lady, come come my lady / You're Madame Butterfly, sugar baby

I ordered a large chai at this coffee shop, but I apparently forgot to say it's to go. So now I am just sitting in and drinking my large chai, taking it as an opportunity to slow down on a Saturday. This experience feels more emblematic of something essential to living somehow
