Did someone tell him that there’s treasure buried under the White House or something?
He’s going to emerge from the rubble filled hole in the ground clutching “actually the real constitution” declaring “see says right here: one king.”

Handled with remarkable, deft class, and channelling this rare extra attention toward all manner of issues beyond himself. Kimmel has such a talent for stepping above his shtick at key moments.

Trump’s solution to the Ukraine war is for the USA to surrender? Truly his Nobel Peace Prize is in the bag.

“I kicked him out of my club for hiring underage girls.”
Sounds like a strong moral position.
“I kicked him out of my club for hiring underage girls from me.”
A real choice to keep talking for those two more words.

Seemingly every few weeks I have to erase my Firefox local profile and start over because it simply ceases to make network connections and won't load any pages. No new extensions, no config change. Just… dead. Forum advice like “disable http3” is ineffective and seems outdated. Anyone fixed this?

I was building a floating frame for a canvas. I mistakenly cut two sides the wrong way up, so they were short. Oops. Bought new wood and finally restarted. This new wood is thicker. So reusing old measurements doesn’t make the same size frame. I now realise.
Anyhoo, today I made half of two frames.

Look, I’m not in favour of dick swinging military parades as a measure of national might. Very anti that, in fact. Especially my own country. But I’m also opposed to such parades making us look like total dogshit.

Also a delight to see Trump’s tiny dick parade looking so shitty. Looks so hard to spin they’ll have to exhume Sean Spicer from the Easter Bunny tomb they froze him in.
