Got my fingers crossed that Iran is authoritarian enough to convince their people that their nuclear program was not harmed and that a limited bunch of intercepted missiles shot at a US base was a hugely successful counter-attack.

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

Goodnight Senator @booker.senate.gov See you in the morning.

I walk and talk like a field hand

But the boots I'm wearing cost three grand

I write songs about riding tractors

From the comfort of a private jet

Every mainstream attempt to grapple with the rise of Tate and other misogynist ideologues have posed them as a product of men’s despair. Few have posited them as an assault on women’s safety and dignity.

May our haters forever be the minor background actors in the sketches we write of our lives.

Bowen Yang is an inspiration.

Don't disrespect "feminine" creative outlets. You cannot tell me that tinkering with your Jeep and lifting your F150 aren't creative outlets. Your hobby isn't superior because your hands end up covered in grease and motor oil.

About the Joann closure: Yes, I order online, yes I can get some things at Walmart, but Joann always there and had the essentials. It's like auto parts. Yes you can order parts online, and there are some at Walmart, but if AutoZone & O'Reilly closed & you needed brake pads NOW where are you going?

When I was writing about remote work from 2021 to 2022 the thing I kept coming back to was the amount of bosses writing op-eds that showed they were never in the office but desperately needed people to be there so they could stomp around occasionally and feel important.

The Medicaid systems have been haywire all week and I pray it is because we are putting in barriers and not because they are being dismantled.

Today my father is out sanding today and with absolutely ZERO context he just sends me a picture of the interior of the White City Dunks.

Because of a joke @birbigs.bsky.social made in the early 2000s that location has forever since been called Dunkino Donutos

I asked how many donutos we had. 2.

A lot of people keep saying that Elon’s decisions don’t make sense, but I have a trick. Simply ask β€œIs this going to get everybody talking about Elon Musk?” 

If the answer is β€œYes” then, to Elon, it is a good idea.

It was a Roman salute. You know, that classic Roman salute that people do all the time, that we're all familiar with. You're always seeing people Roman saluting each other in the street, while chatting about how the war with Eurasia is going

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.
