I think one thing we need more of over here is more silly fun accounts.

Relatedly, please enjoy and follow my new account where I take data about TV shows and movies and make charts and graphs.
Bones Cases by Cause of Death
I was a teenager when social media was invented.

Within a year, you'd hear 'don't post pictures of you drinking on Facebook because it'll hurt job prospects'

And somehow we've looped to, 'Just because someone's positing nazi shit doesn't mean they shouldn't be in the senate.'
IDK, call me crazy, but I think the presumption that all young men will inevitably spend their days shitposting awful things online may be linked to the "male loneliness epidemic."

Like maybe retreating to anonymity because you can't handle situations that expect empathy is part of the problem.
Also whatever exorbitant price tag they put on this Whitehouse ballroom please know there is absolutely gonna be some money laundering baked in there.
I promise you it is possible to find an economic populist who doesn't have nazi tattoos.

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.
Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

We bombed a fishing boat in distress.
UPDATE: COLOMBIA’s President says 🇺🇸 government (Trump) “committed murder” and bombed a fisherman with no ties to drugs

“The boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure”
I think Luke having a crush on a woman, meeting Leia, realizing they weren't into each other, and just becoming friends with her is a very helpful thing for young boys to see early on.
I fought fascism today, so I am letting myself have Postmates as a treat.

So dangerous that they must be blown into small pieces rather than arrested … unless they are actually captured in which case they may go home with a warning. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/u...
I will admit when the Epstein Files first became a talking point, I was like, 'we already know he's a pedo and his followers don't care, what could possibly be in there that'll matter.'

But like at this point... something is clearly in there that they think will matter.
Genuinely comical how much Evangelical Right Wing Christians would hate Jesus if they met him.
Everyone who voted to confirm this idiot should be deeply shamed forever. And never trusted to make an important decision in their lives.

The reality of Kavanaugh stops: American citizens dragged, tackled, beaten, tased, and shot by immigration agents. Citizens held in the rain while in their underwear. A pregnant citizen's door blown off while Kristi Noem watched. Important story by @nicolefoy.bsky.social of @propublica.org
I feel like it's less that we're frogs who got slow-boiled and more like we're frogs who got thrown directly into boiling water, and some of the frogs were like 'let's get out of this boiling water,' and the rest were like 'nah.'
Not a single person from the 2020 Dem Primary should run again. If you didn't have the juice to beat Biden, you don't have the juice.

Get out of the way.
I should clarify this is sung to the tune of Moon River
SOUP WEATHER!
Sometimes I accidentally type "me" instead of "my," and then when I proofread, it sounds like my characters are mischievous leprechauns.
The main thing I learned as an adult is that not enough people saw and understood "Marge vs The Monorail" as children
It is literally the only use case where they can find a pathway to profit.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.
This explains so, so much about the modern political climate.
my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)
