Was kinda disappointed he didn't pull that one out

In case you weren’t hip to it:

TURNING POINTS USA IS A RACIST HATE GROUP!

It always was.

There is literally no difference between praising Charlie Kirk and praising David Duke.

Same same.

Looking for a #coverartist for my book. I've got an idea for a simple design, but it's the style that I don't think I can pull off myself. Looking for someone with a stylistic #watercolor talent.

I'm not afraid. Come and get me, Donald.

I will stand up for the law and the Constitution. That’s what we do in the State of Illinois.

Like dude trust me, I want for us to find common ground, but I can not find common ground, when the common ground means equating people dying, to a “necessary evil”

So, my son and his wife had several signature cocktails for their wedding. One was a gin drink with rosemary as a garnish/aromatic.
I'm now telling you that it works well for gin and tonic, too

Meatloaf

Bat Out of Hell II

One of the first albums I knew of that was a "story" track 1 through the end

Liz Ryerson @ellaguro.bsky.social · 12h

a poll idea that just popped into my head: since we've collectively been doing 90's nostalgia for awhile as a culture, what's your secret/stealth best 90's album? not something necessarily widely super critically beloved but is nonetheless great and defining for you?

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

I listened to his rant. Given his career, he literally put it on the line with that. That means a lot. I'll listen to a little country to support that!

Got a trifecta on it, too!
1 I shop here all the time
2 I spend a lot of money here
3 /I/ wouldn't try to pull anything.

Bitch, please. If you shop here all the time, then you know you have to have a receipt. It's not really a big ask. The college kid earlier today got the same answer

What the absolute fuck is he talking about?
Someone needs to do something about him being in charge of the country. He clearly isn't charge of his mental faculties any more

ICE arrested comedian Robby Roadsteamer for singing a parody of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” in a Jeffrey Epstein the Giraffe costume outside their facility.

He sings “If you hate brown people / and you are a Nazi” and ICE thugs grab him and drag him into detention. No violence—just speech.
