That could have been better but it is ultimately a feel good show

SHRINKING is so amazing. This week’s episode was an emotional 🎒

A reminder that Harrison Ford is doing some of the best work of his career on Shrinking.

No helmet, no rules, often ridden by drunk 20 somethings on the sidewalk going the wrong way β€”what could go wrong?

The article and this new CEO both entirely fail to mention the Black-led boycott that has devastated their sales numbers after they killed DEI programs, so I’m thinking this β€œreputation re-establishment” campaign is not going to go well

That's right. You got no leg to stand on, Newsom supporters. Shut your hole. We don't need anti trans anti homeless greaseball shit. North Carolina is purple, it's not some blue stronghold.

ICE cannot be allowed to exist in a civilized society. This isn't hard to figure out

That Smashing Pumpkins song where he's like "I uuuuuused to be a litttttle boooy" is among my favorite pieces of unintentional comedy.

Got a bit carried away after the Super Bowl and made all kinds of commitments, so Seahawks, I know you just had an incredible season but need you to win the next two Super Bowls as well now, it is a matter of face here

He hand picked someone for each department in the executive branch. His endgame? To dismantle the govt & create a techno-feudalsit corporate dystopia where those who survive the cull become serfs. This isn’t innovation, it’s a call for genocide with a logo attached.

Peter Thiel’s nihilistic transhumanism is inspired by Curtis Yarvin’s contempt for humanity, they’re psychotic. Advocating against healthcare while chasing bionic immortality for the few is funny. Humanity’s value isn’t conditional on tech or stagnation. He needs to be institutionalized.

It’s interesting, even when leftists have yelled at me for things I haven’t felt the need to join the right. That’s like saying well the Seahawks have been losing for 10 years so I guess I’ll become a 49er fan.

I mean, they turned in blue because the other guy got hurt. If Zack hadn’t gotten hurt, then it would’ve been a duo.

I listened to 170 hours of Joe Rogan’s podcast – trust me, he hasn’t turned against Trump | Michael Marshall The world’s most popular podcaster seemingly disapproving of ICE does not mean he has soured from the administration

Important piece on Rogan. He's just Rush Limbaugh on different pharmaceuticals at this point. And citing him is like citing Grok and the one or two good X Community Notes a month. It just legitimates the ruse that he's not a partisan actor.

So I finally got my Lake Washington Boulevard sidewalk repair FOIAs back. Guess what, former Mayor Harrell's administration designated the sidewalk repairs as "low priority." The repairs were slated to happen last summer. www.seattle.gov/parks/about-...
