Allegedly one of the Louvre robbers. The comment is perfection.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens?

You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate?

Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

as far as just messaging goes that video is probably the most embarrassing thing any president has done on the world stage in my life

and the fact that the sunday shows wont even describe it? total abdication of their responsibility

"Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without one." Thank you for your well-reasoned take on Platner's ill-considered words. Let's hope we've all learned our lesson.

Devour Your Nice Things
Burn the fancy candle.
Wear the special-occasion dress.
Pop the good bottle.
Scribble hurry slowly on the first page
of your leather-bound notebook.
Gorge on your pearls, 
your cashmere, your silks.
Use the high-end eyeshadow
until the silver pan winks back.
Baptize your wrists in Baccarat Rouge,
a little extra for the collar.
Devour your nice things—
don't let the best go cold on your plate.
The anticipation of living is empty calories
and you were meant to be full.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

Sometimes I think about what problems could be solved by all the wealth being hoarded. I think about what could be done for the children of the globe, the animals, land, water & for the FUTURE, if just a few greedy men wanted to HELP. There’s no way to accept the evil choices they make.

We are all trapped in a seventh-grade gym class with the kids who stole our money for the book fair. I do not like this timeline.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Not only have autistic people been around since time immemorial, but they're also probably why we have civilization anyway.

People who categorized plants and animals. Who counted the full moons between planting and harvest and replanting. Who sat down and figured out the properties of rocks.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Sometimes it's nice to remember that even Marcus Aurelius was like "you don't have to comment on everything bro"
