I used to say something like "I am history's greatest monster" after making a joke that bad, but I've since learned some more things about history, and I think I'm in the clear,

Today I passed a billboard w/ an ai-ass nativity scene beneath a giant cosmic Jesus and big text asking "Do You Love The Man As Much As The Baby?" and I choked on the coke zero I was drinking while driving and I stifled a cough and the bubbles foamed up through my nasal passages. I felt so present.

I got so stoned at a Mets game once I compared the Jumbotron to the top screen of a Nintendo DS bc it had “a bunch of useful contextual information” and the field to the bottom screen bc “it’s where the game is actually played”

Accidentally had fully caffeinated coffee at like 930 and here’s the thing: i had a fantastic night. Are we sure this isn’t a better way to live? What if “sleep hygiene” stuff is just a psyop to make us weaker and sadder?

4 weeks from now Donald Trump turns on Zohran but not for being left wing, but because in this time Trump has become a fervent anti revisionist mlm and keeps saying Mamdani is a distraction to placate people from real revolution

“trump is ecstatic to meet the muslim socialist immigrant mayor of new york while MAGA’s strongest soldier from georgia-14 resigns in disgust” is a fucking coalition-breaking disaster for the hard right
no, it’s fucking terrible for trump, lol
I don't know if it makes sense to describe what happened today as "good PR". The Fox crowd doesn't seem terribly thrilled about the meeting either.
