That email should read: “Fuck you.”

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Getting set to watch SNL50 and wondering when Trump will have the show shut down.

So...I guess taking vaccines is now an act of rebellion

Has the price of eggs decreased yet, or … what? Prices keep going up and it’s Joe Biden’s fault? So now I have to raise my own fucking chickens to keep the price of eggs down? 1/3

He doesn't want them to take all the credit.

Whenever I see a cyber truck, I think to myself, “There goes a freethinker so freethinking that they’re willing to fork over $80k to own the libs while driving a vehicle that looks like it was conceived by a third-grader with a ruler obsession." 1/2

I'm surprised by how progressive Trump is in this second go-round... After all he's run an immigrant who's working under the table to destroy the whole country

Trump is nothing if not transactional. He sold the US to the highest bidder.

Self-entitled asshole says what now?

Who knew that so many Americans would casually accept a slide into oligarchy because it was couched in racism?

the only way to get rid of Elon now is to keep making reminding Trump of his own subservience "Did you clear that tariff with Elon?" "Did Elon say it was okay for you to give a press conference?" "Are you Elon's little spoon?"

That Chappel Roan sure knows how to write an earworm. I've had "Pink Pony Club" in my head all morning, despite listening to jazz...

They're showing Taylor Swift so much that I thought I was watching a Chiefs game... #grammys

At what point does Elon have Trump deposed and himself appointed monarch with the title of Grand Dogelord?

Today's reverse prank call prompt: Hey, thanks for calling, I've been meaning to ask you about the potential for tariffs to lead to MLB kicking the Blue Jays out of the league.

What's a song that made you forget your name for a brief second, ushering in an existential crisis about your own identity and place in this world?

Today's reverse prank call prompt*: "Hey, Smitty, you get the stuff?" *opening line to a spam phone call

What is a song that makes you want to rip all your clothes off, run to the middle of an empty field in sub-zero temperatures and dedicate the rest of your life to finding your sister's killer?

Why do I assume that anyone "passionately focused" on LinkedIn is lying?

One small, good thing: my son (17) was practicing songs on the piano from "Wicked" to accompany two middle-schoolers at a recital/showcase this weekend. And now my son, daughter (11) and I (52) have been singing "What Is This Feeling" and "Defying Gravity" nonstop.

The world would be a more agreeable place if everyone woke up one day and admitted we know nothing.

The Commanders are playing like they're having Dan Snyder flashbacks....

Black Lung Dilettantes - fake band name of the day.

Today's reverse prank call prompt (what I plan to say to a spam dialer) - "Billy, Billy, Billy, listen to me, after what she did to your apartment you're better with her out of your life"

Normally I let spam calls go to voicemail, but now I've decided to reverse "Jerky Boy" them with a different prompt each day. Today's is "'S'up, Danny, when'd you get outta the slammer?" So far, no response.

Does Clark Kent disclose his kryptonite allergy when he gets medical care?

He’ll probably try to make it a state. With 2 senators.

Schroedinger’s Sieg Heil Salute

Known liar lies. Film at eleven.

To truly have freedom of speech on social media sites, the algorithm needs to be dismantled.

Anyone have any plans for this last day before we descend into authoritarianism?

Every time I see an engagement-bait post about music,I'm just going to make something up. (e.g. Q: "What is the best album for a cold day?" A: "The Purple Plimsoles' Hearts of a Wedgewood Tree")

Moving the inauguration indoors isn't very masculine, is it? Now the attendees will have to smell the president-elect's every fart.

Bob Uecker hit .200 in the Major Leagues...which still makes him better at baseball than most people.

I'm going to show my kids "This Is Spinal Tap" and tell them it's a documentary.

Is Zuck changing the rules at Facebook because his user base of boomers sharing bad jokes is dying off, and, well right wing trolls are good for engagement?

Bob Uecker reminds us that baseball is a game to love - whether your team wins championships or not.
