I don't know, after this weekend and the no-getting-around-it way the President is starving people, all this will-they-won't-they cave stuff feels like an attempt to go into tomorrow saying "We tried, but the Republicans said no" making the whole week REPUBLICANS STARVE POOR TO PROTECT EPSTEIN FILES

Oh sure you think Chuck Schumer is β€œcaving” and β€œwants to ruin all the momentum” and β€œis horrible at politics” but what if I was to tell you that this old crazy man ran the idea by an imaginary married Irish American couple that exists only in his mind and they think it’s great politics

I guess I need to apologize to the writers of Alien: Prometheus. it turns out scientists really do touch everything like that

The opening text of Master and Commander, but its the style of a Zohran for Mayor poster. "April, 1805. Napoleon is master of Europe. Only the British fleet stands before him. Oceans are now battlefields."

Is it weird to describe a Predator movie as charming? Because Predator Badlands was CHARMING.

there's this thing i call "cop math"

basically, when you catch someone abusing power to cause harm and they're being real confident or real casual about it, stop and ask yourself, "how much human misery is flowing out of this one person into the world, if this evil thing is just a *habit* to them?"

Our little angel we love you forever & you're with us always.
Our beautiful daughter went to heaven Sunday October 26th. There are no words to describe the pain we're going through but we hold her in our hearts and cherish every second we had with her.
Thank you to the Dodgers for their understanding and support during this time. Our baseball family showed up for us and we wouldn't be able to do this without them.
Thank you Dodger Nation, Blue Jays organization and all baseball fans for your love and support. We have seen ALL your messages, comments and posts. It's brought us so much comfort.
Lastly, we'd like to thank Cedars Sinai and all the medical staff who helped Kayla and Sterling. Every person we came across was truly so incredible.

the fact that Sandwich Guy is facing this 'wich trial at all is evidence of subpar justice. he is a hero being put through the judicial grinder. i hope the jury wraps up a not guilty verdict without delay or loafing around

Folks that know me are aware I used to fight with insurance companies daily on a professional level, and if my pharmacy experience today advocating for myself has taught me anything, I still got it.

We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
